🔍 How to spot Large Patch & Dollar Spot

Early ID = faster recovery across St. Augustine, Centipede, Bermuda, Zoysia.

🍂
Large Patch (Rhizoctonia): orange-to-brown expanding patches during cool months; leaves pull up easily at the base.
💧
Dollar Spot: small bleached “silver dollar” spots that can merge; leaf blades show hourglass lesions.
🚰
Common triggers: thatch + shade + prolonged leaf wetness, tight watering, aggressive fall N, soil compaction.
🧐
Look-alikes: drought stress or dull mower blades can mimic fungus — we confirm before treating.

🧬 When it’s not Large Patch or Dollar Spot

We confirm on-site before choosing products or timing.

Take-All Root Rot (TARR) 🌱

St. Augustine & Zoysia: thinning, yellowing that won’t respond to fertilizer; roots dark/weak; stolons lift easily. We reduce stress/moisture, adjust height, correct pH/thatch, and time root-focused fungicides.

Gray Leaf Spot ☀️

Hot, humid periods on St. Augustine; lesions with gray/tan centers and dark margins. We time nitrogen, improve airflow/cut height, and rotate labeled fungicides when pressure builds.

Pythium & Leaf Spots 💧

Flares with ultra-wet turf, night watering, or poor drainage. We fix irrigation/drainage first and only treat if confirmed.

❓ Fungus FAQs

Will the dead areas turn green again?

Once the fungus is stopped, living stolons/rhizomes and surrounding turf fill in. If crowns are dead, those spots fill from edges or need patching.

How fast can you stop Large Patch?

Spread usually halts within a few days; color can lag 1–3 weeks depending on weather and turf type.

Could this be Take-All Root Rot instead?

TARR attacks roots/rhizomes, so turf thins and yellows without classic rings. We confirm on-site and adjust treatment and recovery steps.

How do you prevent Gray Leaf Spot?

Time nitrogen to weather, improve airflow and cut height, reduce leaf wetness, and rotate labeled fungicides when pressure builds.
