  • 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

    I ain’t going to even hold you. You’re a good dude. Most lawn care companies won’t explain this to a customer because on the low they don’t want the customer to figure it out on their own and take care of the matter themselves. They feel they’ll loose that customer as well as money. You just gained a subscriber mane.💪🏾

    @markhall3434 Před 14 dny +1

    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.

    Good information. I had a lawn test last year and I have a problem with grey leaf spot, and brown patch. I have tttf in the transition zone. When should I start applying a fungicide? Is Propiconazole 14.3 and Headway G fungicide the best treatment? Thank you John

    • @PoloFieldsLawnService
      @PoloFieldsLawnService  Před rokem

      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

    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. My grass looks nice and green but had a yellow/brown hue to it because of the grass color down below. Any suggestions on what I might be dealing with?

    • @PoloFieldsLawnService
      @PoloFieldsLawnService  Před 2 lety

      Thank you 👍🏾 What type of grass do you have and Is your grass like this all year around or just in the summer?

    • @PoloFieldsLawnService
      @PoloFieldsLawnService  Před 2 lety

      @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

    ☀Top notch video, Polo! Excellent job educating. 😎 I see a lot of Bermuda heat stress lately. You recommend any "stress blends" during the heat with low N?

    • @PoloFieldsLawnService
      @PoloFieldsLawnService  Před 2 lety +1

      Since Bermuda loves the heat you can definitely hit it with some low nitrogen to keep it green. A slow release fertilizer like Hybrix that has low N and a higher K will work excellent for these conditions

    Bermuda Grass is tricky to detect if you have fungus because the grass blade is already thin. I don't see any spots in the blade or mycelium in the morning. Water that area intensely for 3 weeks. I have to do more research

    • @PoloFieldsLawnService
      @PoloFieldsLawnService  Před 19 dny

      @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.

      @PoloFieldsLawnService  Před rokem

      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 🙏🏾

      Hello Susan, that's awesome about the eagle 20 and thanks for keeping me updated. As far as the Talstar P, no need to water it in. Just don't spray it down right before a rain.

      @brodygoalie It's been the same down here. I haven't had to use much water at all. We've been receiving a lot of rain each week up until now, which is normally our dry period of the year. But of course, dealing with fungus is an ongoing battle between May and October.

    My grass also has heat stress. I have my irrigation running 2 times per day. 4am and 5pm. Is that too much or too little?

    • @PoloFieldsLawnService
      @PoloFieldsLawnService  Před 15 dny

      @jmfitness1583 First, you shouldn't be watering at 5 pm. This could raise the risk of your grass blades remaining wet while you go into the night, and that could cause a disease or insect problem.
      Second, how long are you watering?

      @yeremy7144 It's probably just hot weather. I would be careful when pushing your lawn with a lot of nitrogen during a stressful period. The best thing that you can do is water it and stay off of it. I cut mine once every 2 weeks now, and I haven't fertilized it in over a month

    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  Před rokem

      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 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

    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  Před rokem

      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?

  • @brodygoalie
    @brodygoalie Před 2 lety +2

    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 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  Před 2 lety

      @@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 👍🏾
