Seem to have a Fairy ring on my lawn
Large horseshoe shape of lawn that no matter what I do the grass dies
it does get clutches small brown roundheaded toadstools on it from time to
time but is not heavily infested
Have dug out all the turf and soil to 12 inches and replaced with fresh
soil
and turf this spring and it looked fine but now its all dead again
same thing for last few years
Have watered with Armillotox
Have checked for chafer grubs

IDEAS ANYONE



We have a similar problem with our 'lawn' Well, it's not considered lawn
here as it's planted with field grass and there's well over half an acre to
be cut twice a week! However, we have a largish area about three ft sq thats
very like what you describe. The extension was put on the house 30yrs ago
and a separate soak away and septic tank installed. The septic tank deals
with toilet waste and has its own soak away waaaayyyy off down the end of
the garden, however the soakaway for the showers, baths, washing machines
etc is right in the middle of the area thats dying off. (I found this out by
getting plans of the rebuilding, tho this was not easy!) Perhaps if you have
a soakaway it's not working as efficiently as if once was, hence the problem
only arising withing the past 5yrs or so. I was advised to stop using heavy
chemical cleaners and bleaches and this helped but as disinfectant and
bleaches have to be used once in a while it's a problem thats just not going
to go away unless I get a deeper more effecient soakaway put in...not much
help to you, but something to consider looking into?
