Keeping Your Lawn Green

Jacksonville Landscaping Tip: Keeping Your Lawn Green

Is your lawn looking a little brown from the weather up’s and down’s?
Here are a few tips to get your lawn back in the “green”.

Brown Patch Lawn Disease is the most destructive grass killer of all.
Occurring overnight when weather conditions are just right; sneaking up
and attacking your lawn when it is the most vulnerable. Brown patch will
attack any kind of grass, especially when being boosted by nitrogen
fertilizer. These brown patches will typically occur during the summer,
due to the temperature exceeding the mid 80’s during the day, and lower
70’s during the night. The disease will attack almost immediately causing
the results of brown patches.

To avoid brown patch disease stay away from high nitrogen fertilizers
especially during the warmer fall days. Also, do not over water! Make sure
you are watering during early mornings, or in the middle of the night.
Remove all clippings to avoid spreading disease to other areas. Lastly,
mow your lawn on a regular basis and keep a proper height for your grass
type.
