The one disease that affects law ns this time of year is snow mold, said This mold (fungus) is usually evident right after the snow- melts. Symptoms of snow mold are small patches of brow n grass w ith pink, grey or w hite margins where the snow was piled. Snow mold is normally not fatal, and lawns usually recover quickly as the weather warms. Another springtime problem is damage caused cutworms, he said. The dark larvae, which are inches long, only about eat grass blades above the crown. This causes the grass to go brown, and scares Good-spee- - many homeowners into thinking it has died.

Thatch is the layer of living and dead stems and roots that sits between the soil and the grass. A little thatch layer is good; in fact, it acts like a good carpet pad providing a little cushion to the grass. However, a thick thatch layer reduces the lawns ability to move water, nutrients and oxygen from the surface into the root zone. A thatch layer thicker than f inch is detrimental to a healthy lawn. Check the thatch layer by simply digging a small plug from the lawn and examining the grass and soil. The best way to reduce a thick thatch layer is to core aerate the law-n- A core aerator pulls small plugs of grass and soil out of the ground as it runs across the lawn.
