My otherwise good looking lawn has brown grass, almost looks
like straw , mixed in with it not in any particular pattern. A
few
weeks
ago, the entire lawn was a deep dark green. Now some is green
and some is this brown grass or the edges are brown. Any
ideas/explanations. Could it be the unusual amount of rain we
have gotten along the north east. Any observations appreciated.
Thanks

John

What kind of grass?

How much rain?

Your lawn may have some sort of fungus.

Most lawns in N Ohio have at least a little red thread disease
since the dew point went up to 70. (to be expected) A feeding helps
control it most times but a fungicide will make it be gone fairly
quick. (expensive)

Oh yeah baking soda will cure the red thread disease, and your daddy's
gout.

Or leave it since it won't kill the grass.

Nope, just makes it look sickly for the most part. I can prevent most of it
with Bayleton. (expensive)
