Brown patchstarts in May.

By the time you see brown patch, the lawn has already lost root mass. Pure Turf preventive fungicide goes down before symptoms show, rotating chemistry through the season so we stay ahead of disease, not behind it.

Brown patch is
predictable here.So we get ahead of it.

Middle Tennessee humidity plus warm overnight temperatures plus shade equals disease pressure that arrives like clockwork in May. Preventive fungicide goes down before symptoms show, which is the part that actually keeps a lawn green.

What we treat

Three diseasesthat take Middle
Tennessee lawns.

Brown patch

The big one here. Shows up as irregular brown circles two to ten feet across, often with a smoky gray ring at the edge, when nights stay warm and humid. Hits fescue and ryegrass hardest from late spring on.

Window

May through August

Dollar spot

Smaller spots, about the size of a silver dollar, scattered across closely mowed turf. Shows up when the lawn is low on nitrogen and stays damp overnight. A good feeding fixes mild cases; heavy outbreaks need fungicide.

Window

May through September

Spring dead spot

The Bermuda one. Circular dead patches that show up as the lawn greens up in spring, caused by a fungus that goes after the roots the fall before. That's why we treat it months ahead, in the fall, not when you finally see it.

How we prevent

Preventive, notreactive.

By the time you see brown patch, the lawn has lost root mass. Preventive applications hold the line before symptoms show.

Inspect

Disease pressure assessment in May.

Before the first fungicide goes down, we evaluate the lawn's risk: cultivar, shade, irrigation pattern, last year's history. A full-sun Bermuda lawn is a different program than a shaded fescue.

Apply

Curative-grade products, preventive timing.

We don't use the watered-down fungicides off a big-box shelf. We rotate professional-grade fungicide classes at curative rates, applied before symptoms show. Rotation prevents resistance buildup.

Rotate

Different chemistry every visit.

Using one type of fungicide over and over invites resistance. We rotate between fungicide classes through the season so we stay ahead of disease, not behind it.

Recover

Same-week response
when disease shows.

If something appears between visits, usually after a long humid stretch, we're back the same week with a curative application. The healthy-lawn guarantee includes disease recovery.

When does fungicide season actually start?

Preventive applications start in May for both Essential and Elite. The window depends on overnight temperature trends. Once overnight lows stay above 65° for several nights in a row, disease pressure builds fast.

Do I need fungicide on my lawn?

If you have cool-season turf (fescue, ryegrass blends) in Middle Tennessee, yes. Brown patch is reliable enough that we treat it as inevitable on unprotected lawns. Warm-season turf (Bermuda, Zoysia) gets less fungicide because it's more resistant.

What products do you use?

Strobilurin (azoxystrobin, pyraclostrobin) and DMI (propiconazole, triticonazole) fungicides in rotation. All EPA-registered, applied by TN Department of Agriculture-licensed technicians, logged on the same-day report.

Is the fungicide safe for pets and kids?

Re-entry interval is 30 minutes after the application dries. Once dry, the treated area is safe for normal use. We apply by spray on calm days to minimize drift and avoid pollinator-active zones where possible.

What if disease shows up between scheduled visits?

Call us. We're back the same week with a curative application at no charge. The healthy-lawn guarantee covers between-visit disease response.

Do I need to be on a program to get fungicide?

Yes. Fungicide is part of the Essential and Elite programs, not a one-off. Half the disease defense is the lawn's overall health, feeding, mowing, watering. Treating disease on an underfed lawn is treating the symptom, not the cause.

Hold the line on disease

Green when the neighbors go brown.

Tell us where the property is. We'll read the lawn's disease pressure up front and get preventive fungicide on the calendar before summer does the damage.
