Front Yard Garden

There's a disease in my dormant lawn! It’s not what you think.



I recently noticed some weird looking spots in my yard. They kept growing in number. After some research, I’ve come to the conclusion that there’s a fungus in my dormant lawn. In this video, we’ll talk about what disease I’ve diagnosed it as and what I’m going to do about it. If you think I’m way off base, please enlighten me…prove me wrong.

This channel’s videos share DIY lawn care tips for the average homeowner looking to fix an ugly lawn or maintain a nice one. Whether you’re a beginner or experienced, you’ll learn ways to have the best yard on the block without spending a lot of money.

I’m a husband and dad who loves his family and his lawn. Gotta care for and manage a budget for both.

  1. Did you check the carbohydrate levels? Time for some more Foolmechar, Stupendous Juice, and FGP Incomplete. The obvious solution is more chemicals. See my link below!😄

  2. Wow, your cool as a cucumber approach has a Zen feeling to it. At least it has the name pink in it. Merry Christmas.

  3. I'm hearing from a very reliable lawn friend that is experiencing the same thing that this is a saprophytic fungi feeding on dormant turf. Thanks, Scott. Be sure to comment any other info that we can all learn from. Appreciate ya!

  4. Great job on the editing and if it looks like a duck, swims like a duck, and quacks like a duck, then it probably is a duck , I mean snow mold 😂

  5. Hey brother I have an extra longhorns jersey so you can get rid of that trash lol 😂😅 jp

  6. Hiya Travis!..with your diagnosis skills we go in to business together!👏👏🤣…I see that Hog on your chest!👏👏my boys get destroy by international professional team from Arizona last night🤦🏻…that insane brother!☮️🎅🏽🏀

  7. You should’ve just used that super juice back in the fall 😆

  8. Interesting. Never even thought about those spots before. Always just thought it was some weird brown out from frost or pee spots. Respect for the Ernest drop 👊🏻🙌🙌

  9. I am in bentonville and this is the first year I am seeing the same thing in my yard. I had the same thought that it was a fungus.

  10. Not sure I ever seen snow mold here in NJ. I do have a small area of Zoysia that is dormant paper bag brown. If I leave the yard brownies on it for more than a day or so it does change to a darker shade of brown. 🤣

  11. Interesting stuff 🤔. This was an informative and hilarious video! Have a great rest of your weekend 🤜🤛🍻

  12. SNOW MOLD lol
    You had better call doc lol
    I'm willing to bet he has never heard of it but will sell you a solution for it! 👍

  13. I live in Arizona and Roll Tide, but love your channel just the same 🙂. You are way more relevant than most yard channels, keep it up!

  14. Very interesting! Like you I try to stay away from fungicide. I wouldn't be surprised to see some fungus here as it has been nothing but rain, rain, rain lately and warm for this time of year. Hoping we get a little snow for the kids this winter.

  15. Sometimes I get that here in MI, smart call it will go away in the spring after lawn is mowed etc like you stated.

  16. Oh no! We need to get on top of this right away!
    You need to put immediately put down some RGS along with some triple 10, to stimulate root growth and help insulate from frost. I’d also recommend some humic char and biocomp complete (affiliate link here) for soil conditioning. A little lime and some Mag-i-cal to cross-balance ph, and definitely needs an immediate lawn leveling. 2 tons or so should probably do it, and of course a soil test to make sure those worms stay happy and healthy! 😂

  17. All the Fellas beat me to the "Stuper Juice" comments ; May have been admiring my lawn @ the time lol. I did love the injection of Earnest!! And the good content with the much anticipated Sarcasm that we all live for!!! Keep it up My man……Enjoy each and everything you share…no BS ..just You being You!!! Out to the shop for ole Rob…Drywall guy didnt show , so guess whos gonna teach himself now…..crazy times we are in….cant even give my $$$ away for services…..D I Y ….Lets do this!!💯✌Later Travis.

  18. Can’t agree more with the identification of the issue and the cure of it. I am having snow mold every year given the snow cover…the grass is growing it out…if you are as patient as i am…you will rake it of, reseed and dispose the debris properly

  19. I's not saprophytic fungi. Your cation exchange balance is off and those patches could spread across the entire lawn in the spring and possibly your neighbor's property. Did you do a soil test on both the spotted areas and non spotted areas? Make sure your Mg/Dl levels are between .0015 and .00185 ppm
