  • This video is going to help you determine the difference between HEAT STRESS and FUNGUS. Often times people get HEAT STRESS and FUNGUS confused just because they leave brown spots in your lawn. When the summer heat arrives, these are the two things that can reside in your lawn. The good thing about this video is I'm going to help you see the difference between the two. The way that you can tell is FUNGUS has lesions on the blades or it may have mycelium on the grass in the mornings. The grass blades for HEAT STRESS curl up as thin as the straws on a broom stick and it doesn't have any lesions/spots on the grass blades. I also give you information in this video on how you can correct these issues if you see them in your lawn. I hope this video helps you in your lawn journey. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day.
    Thank you for your support,
    Be Blessed

    • @PoloFieldsLawnService
      @PoloFieldsLawnService  2 роки тому +1

    • @PoloFieldsLawnService
      @PoloFieldsLawnService  Рік тому

      If the blades are thin with NO SPOTS on them, it's heat stressed. Stand those blades up by raking it and give it some water. It will turn back green with water. Now, if it has spots on the grass blades, don't give it any water. You need a fungicide. Stay tuned because I have a video coming out soon that talks all about heat stress. Hope this helps 🙏🏾

    If you are using azoxystrobin and propaconazole and don't have any fungus how much of each would you use for a 22,000sq ft yard? I'm only asking so I know what to use this summer. Thank you!

    • @PoloFieldsLawnService
      @PoloFieldsLawnService  Рік тому

      Hello Craig, My first question to you is have you ever dealt with fungus in your lawn before? If not, I don't recommend that you just start purchasing these products and putting them down on your lawn and you've never seen or had to battle with fungus. No need in spending your hard earned money on products for symptoms that you don't deal with if you understand what I mean. If you do deal with fungus, most fungus is going to require different rates depending on which one that you have in your lawn so make sure that you identify what fungus it is before you apply. When using any fungicide, it's best to treat it as a PREVENTATIVE so you would go down with the low rate when conditions are favorable. So for example, if you deal with Brown Patch, the low rate for Propiconizole 14.3 is 1oz per 1,000. For Azoxystrobin, the low rate is 0.38oz per 1,000. Now remember, different fungus may require different rates so read the label FIRST so you will know which rate to apply. I know this is a loaded answer but I hope this helps 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

    Had a beautiful stand.. very healthy and green till late June here in DC area. Anyway, let's not forget the need for Aeration so that water has a chance to soak in. Roots in search for water have to go deeper, but may not be able, expecially if you only have an inch of soil on top of clay. Looks like with some near brutal aeration (tow behind spike water filled aerator) with heavy watering may have resurrected my near dead lawn. Plugger Rental is a rip off.. I'd need it for several days. Took me a few cycles to break thru with a spike aerator, plus plugger gets plugged is a big maintenance problem. Some areas took Water/Aerate/Water/Aerate to get the spikes to penetrate. One area that was near concrete, I actually injected (a Root Fertilizer hose implement) water to break it up, and mix in some good soil. Will know in a couple weeks.. mid July here now. Looks greener already, but a ways to go. Last year was a total loss with this fancy over Hyped Fescue.. if it Dies, going Zoyzia.. best grass ever, but takes a few years (4 or 5) to fill in.

    Heat Stress? Isn't watering the lawn continuously until it comes back healthy going to be quite costly if you on a water meter?

    • @PoloFieldsLawnService
      @PoloFieldsLawnService  Рік тому

      You do have to give your lawn water, but you don't have to bomb it with water to the point that you're making your water bill high. Remember, you need at least an inch of water per week( or close to it) to maintain that green color in your lawn. That inch can come from your sprinklers or from rain. Bottom line: If you don't water it, it'll turn brown and then bounce back when cooler Temps cycle back around. The question is, depending on where you live and if you have a cool season lawn, can you live with a brown lawn for 3-4 months, or however long it's hot in your area?

      @touchdown74 If you don't see any spots on the grass blades or the brown area isn't in a funny shape, direct line, circle or the grass isn't matted down by root rot, it most likely isn't a fungus. But there are other things that could make brown spots this time of the year besides heat. It could be insect damage, or maybe a dog took a leak in your lawn and created a brown spot. That's something that you would have to look at closer.

      Depends on when you normally get hit with a fungus. We normally see fungus around the middle of May so I start with my applications at the beginning of May. I would use Cleary's 3336 to get rid the the brown patch and Leaf spot. You can use Headway and Propiconizole but thats what I would do. If that's all that you have, put down your headway BEFORE you get hit with a fungus. Water it in, wait 20-25 days before reapplying. Same with Propiconizole

    If the lawn is mostly green when it's long, but shows yellowing areas after cutting. And if you dig deep with your fingers and see yellow blades down deep. But the moisture meter says good, what might the problem be.
    Should mention the lawn was immaculate, nice deep green and thick. Then we got 2 months of hot dry weather and a few days of heavy downpours followed by 90+ again. Started seeing signs of deep yellowing where the low spots are. Should also mention this lawn is only 3 years old over drainage stone with once was 4" to 6" of good top soil. Lawn has always looked thick and dark green. Lots of lime and ironite 2 times or more a season with the regular Scotts maintenance fertilizer and grub killer. I was told 2 weeks ago to stop watering and let lawn grow long. Said it's been too hot and then heavy rains. But it's showing signs of more yellowing.
    I did a test section of dethatching at highest position and it thin it out and shows more of the deep yellowing below blades just above soil. Not sure if I should go all out and scarify and air rate or not. Any suggestions?

      @PoloFieldsLawnService  19 днів тому

      @bertpainter8385 Hello Bert. Your lawn will go back to looking good once these hot temperatures go away, but I need for you to do me a favor, though.
      Do you know what your Ph of your lawn is? If not, don't apply any more lime until you do so. Lime raises your Ph, and if you're unsure what it is, you could be doing more harm than good.
      As the temperatures cool down, start cutting your lawn a couple of notches lower and leave it there. For example, I cut my front lawn at 4 inches throughout the summer. In the fall, I normally will end up around 3 inches or 3.5 inches. Dethatching should be fine if you've already done it. Just fertilize it, water that in, and continue to mow. Don't worry about the yellowing near the soil. That's normal when you're cutting your high

      @bertpainter8385 19 днів тому +1

      @@PoloFieldsLawnService Thx for the quick response. Appreciate that. The PH is slightly above 6. It pretty much stays around that number even after I spread lime and let it soak in a few weeks there after. I also keep my lawn around 3.5 to 4" and mow at least 2 times a week on average depending on rain. This year once the hotter temps came I notice the deep green fading even after a dose of ironite. And then the yellowing started down low at 1st and later I could see it after mowing. No one else noticed it like I did until the past 3 weeks. It still looks good driving by, but I anal now that I got a taste of what lawn care can achieve. lol.
      I plan on aerating the backyard this week and was thinking to do the same in the front, but I'm afraid to make a mess of a good thing. But all I read is it should be done at least once a year. I did scarifiy the backyard a few weeks ago, but realized it needs reseeding. So I'll do that after I aerate and fertilize. Using either Ammonia sulfate and/or Urea for that. Any suggestions on what I'm about to attempt. This is my 1st go round with dethatching, scarify and aeration. Going by what I've researched so far. I gravitated to your channel which made the most sense to me.

    5:04 Those blades look to be "needling up" (ie thin) too and I don't see any blade spots, but I believe you are indicating that is from fungus. The criteria sounds easy to apply but it doesn't look that simple. Too bad you didn't take that example at 5:04 to show a closeup of the blade spots, cuz I don't see any.

    • @PoloFieldsLawnService
      @PoloFieldsLawnService  Рік тому

      Hello Vashon, that particular part of the video, I was specifically talking about fungus. If you rewind it, I was giving you different ways there would be a tell tell sign of a fungus. There will be some mycelium on the blades, spots on the blades, or the brown spots would be in a circle. In that part of the video, there were several brown spots in a circle. If it's damage from heat stress, the brown spots will be in irregular patterns, not perfectly shaped circles. Hope I explained it better for you to understand.

    • @PoloFieldsLawnService
      @PoloFieldsLawnService  Рік тому

      Hello Selina, no need to worry about the mushrooms. Sometimes mushrooms pop up where trees USE to be. A lawn that is water logged has a soggy look to it. You wouldn't want that because a fungus will follow, and the tips of your new grass are brown? Are you in a drought like how we are? This could be the reason for the tips. Please let me know when you can. Thanks

    To me it's just simple. Apply fungus control before early June then reapply in early July. You have to prevent the situation. Same with grub Control. Plus you need to water your lawn each week if there is no rain. One inch per week. Am I spot on? Cheers

    • @PoloFieldsLawnService

      @@PoloFieldsLawnService concerning fungus control. Do you prefer liquid sprayer or granular?? I assume the liquid sprayer is easier plus no concern of watering in the fungus control if you are using the liquid sprayer kind like Bayer bio advanced . Correct? The only concern I have with spraying is knowing that you be applied evenly on the lawn. But not having to be concerned using a rotary spreader is a good thing? Thanks for your help

    • @PoloFieldsLawnService
      @PoloFieldsLawnService  2 роки тому

      @@brodygoalie I prefer a spray over a granular. If a fungus is active, the spray will hit it immediately vs a granular will have to be watered in and travel through the roots and up the crown of the plant before it circulates throughout the plant. Granulars are as effective as foliar, they just need to be applied BEFORE( as a preventative) the disease pressure arrives. You are right about the bio advanced as far as watering it in and don't worry if it's being applied evenly. Trust me, it's getting on that grass as long as you wet your entire lawn. DON'T RUSH though and watch the formula on the side of the bio advanced bottle to make sure your not running out before needed 👍🏾

    I have been trying to diagnose an issue where the lower part of my grass blades are brown/yellow and the upper section of the blade is green. It’s very frustrating.

    • @PoloFieldsLawnService
      @PoloFieldsLawnService  2 роки тому

      @briand27 Hello Brian and The cure that killz, don't worry about it. That's natural since your cutting it high at 3.5 Inches. The top blades are getting more sunlight than the bottom so its naturally gonna be brown. In the spring time when the grass is growing at 100 miles an hr, it may look different. Now if it had any spots on it or resembled something close to a fungus, then I would tell you to dethatch because you could have a fungus recycling in your thatch layer each year. Now if you cut it lower, the sun wouldn't have a problem getting to the lower parts of the plant. But I wouldn't worry about Sir. Hope this helps
