3 Reasons Your Lawn May Have Weeds and Fungi
Dave Charron • Jun 19, 2017

For homeowners that love their lawn, there is little as upsetting as going outside and seeing weeds and mushrooms popping up all over your property. Even a single fungus can be distressing, as they are often very difficult to remove and usually signal that more are coming soon.



While many homeowners blame bad luck, the truth is that weeds and fungi are not usually caused by luck alone. They’re often caused by problems with lawn care.


Why Your Lawn May Struggle


There are many possible reasons that your lawn may now have lawn disease problems. These include, but are not limited to:


  • Damaged Blades – If you did not mow at the right height, or your lawn mower pulled at the blades instead of mowing through them cleanly, your lawn may have been weakened, which opens the door for lawn disease.
  • Too Much Space – Some blades of grass tend to die away, especially in winter. One of the reasons that golf courses uses aeration and seeding is to pack grass so close together, weeds and fungi have no room to form. If you didn’t aerate and seed your lawn, you may be opening the door to lawn disease.
  • Watering Incorrectly – Just as damage to the blades of grass can affect your lawn, so too can watering incorrectly. Under watering, for example, can easily open the door to lawn disease, as can over watering. But the number one watering mistake is watering frequently, but not very much. This causes the roots to grow less deeply, which in turn makes them more susceptible to disease.


These are only three of many possible reasons that your lawn may have encountered lawn disease and fungal issues. They also serve to emphasize why proper lawn care in the Cicero, NY area is so important. Just a few small mistakes, and suddenly you may find that your lawn is in trouble.
