West Michigan Lawn Care: How To Prevent Lawn Diseases | Tuff Turf

An overly watered lawn can lead to various diseases. Use this guide to prevent and treat lawn diseases caused by excessive moisture.

Water Deeply and Infrequently: The infrequency helps encourage deep root growth. Water Early in the Morning: This helps grass blades dry out during the day, reducing fungal risk. Check Soil Moisture: Ensure soil needs water by probing it before watering. The screwdriver trick works great. Mow Properly: If a diseases shows up, raise your mower deck and let the grass grow a little longer than normal. Avoid Night Watering: Cool sunless nights create an environment in the yard for fungus and diseases to flourish. Aerate Regularly: Improve soil drainage and reduce compaction by performing a core aeration every other season. Spot Water: Focus on dry spots to prevent overwatering other areas.
