Lawn Disease & Fungus Control in Reid Hill Commons, Franklin, TN

Most of my neighbors in Reid Hill Commons make the same mistake. When the grass starts dying in July, they assume it is drought and turn the irrigation up. In Middle Tennessee, that is exactly how you kill a lawn. Increasing the moisture just fuels the fungal spores, helping them spread from plant to plant and wash downhill to infect everything in their path.

I see this constantly in Franklin. People treat brown patch as a summer surprise, but it is actually a predictable biological process. When your grass is fighting a fungal infection, it loses the energy it needs to handle other stresses. A lawn fighting fungus cannot handle a week without water, heavy foot traffic from a backyard BBQ, or even a mowing mistake. The fungus is almost always the straw that breaks the camel's back.

I do not offer "low-tier" plans that skip fungicides and then charge you double to fix the damage later. That is an unethical way to do business. My approach is to start preventative fungicide applications in May, a full month before most companies even realize there is a problem. Because I am a UT Certified Horticulturist, I follow the label law, which dictates that prevention is the correct standard of care. By treating preventatively, we keep the disease population low and ensure your lawn has the strength to survive the Franklin heat.
