are you sure you had leatherjackets and not chafer grubs?
cant see the pics at present....
good quality turf needs feeding.....rubbish if you hear otherwise.
I'm concerned that you treated for leatherjackets at the wrong time...if indeed you had them....or chafers?
can you send pics to my book web-mail address at;info@modernlawncare.co.uk
pics are awful quality :-)
looks a lot like red thread scarring, but tricky to see.....
also looks like the new turf is cut a little too short...
its dwarf rye and should not be cut as short as old lawn......
Pics aren't great at all. I asked the customer to send a few photo's - i think they must have resized via email.
Yes, been exceptionally dry here during August and September.
Whats the fix then lads?
Hi Brynn,
cant see pics for some bizarre reason.
I would say it is red thread scars, but cannot see pics clearly enough, and as we have had such a good ttime for that disease, I wouldn't be surprised (check very very closely for any signs of even a slight pinkness to some of the grass)
Raise height of cut and maybe even think of either a spray with ferrous sulphate or even a fungicide.
Will look closer at pics when im in office tomorrow....
