Is your Omaha lawn sick, or just thirsty? 🤔
When brown patches show up in the middle of a Nebraska summer, our first instinct is to dump more water on the grass. But if you’re dealing with a fungus like Brown Patch or Dollar Spot, extra water actually feeds the disease instead of fixing it.
Swipe through to see how to diagnose the 4 most common summer lawn culprits and learn why drought stress might actually be a hidden sprinkler alignment issue.
💡 Quick fix you can do right now: Adjust your timer to water before 9 AM. This lets the turf dry out during the day, drastically reducing fungal pressure!
