Weather and effects on your lawn

I thought it was the opportune time to talk about the impact that last week's extreme weather has had on your lawn.  We have immediately seen diseases like Septoria Leaf Spot that looks like it was tracked by a mower across the yard, Summer Patch or Nectrotic Ring that looks like the lawn is blotchy with a bleached out dead spots, etc.  The cooler weather of this week should really help, but deep root watering a couple of times this week should really help these areas recover from the summer like conditions we had in late May!

Here are some pics of what we are seeing out there right now.
