Lawn Disease & Fungus Control in Tahoe, Mount Pleasant, TN

Most Tahoe homeowners I talk to think their grass is dying from heat or drought when those large brown circles start appearing in the summer. They see the damage and react by watering more, but that is the biggest mistake you can make. Increasing moisture increases spore production and carries the infection downhill to your healthy grass. By the time you see the disease, the battle is already half lost.

I do not offer "low-tier" plans that skip fungicides. Many companies in Middle Tennessee sell a cheap service and then wait for your lawn to die so they can charge you double for an emergency treatment. I consider that unethical. Because I am a UT Certified Horticulturist, I follow the label, and the label says to apply fungicides preventively. I start my fungicide applications in May, well before the heat of summer hits, to keep the disease populations controllable.

In our transition zone climate, the grass sits in dew for up to 12 hours a night, creating a perfect incubator for fungus. When your grass isn't busy fighting off a massive fungal infection, it has more energy to handle the actual stresses of a Tennessee summer, like heavy clay soil or a week without rain. My goal is to protect your investment before the damage begins, not just react when it is too late.
