Dogs damage lawns in two different ways, and each needs its own fix. Your own dog leaves urine spots in the same few places every day. A neighbor’s dog cuts across the yard, marks your…

Dogs damage lawns in two different ways, and each needs its own fix. Your own dog leaves urine spots in the same few places every day. A neighbor’s dog cuts across the yard, marks your…
Johnsongrass is a coarse, warm-season perennial that spreads through thick underground rhizomes and heavy seed production. In a mowed lawn, it stays short, but it keeps coming back from the rhizomes no matter how often…
Quackgrass is a cool-season perennial that spreads through underground rhizomes and forms coarse, blue-green patches in bluegrass, fescue, and ryegrass lawns. It grows fastest in spring and fall, when the surrounding lawn is also growing….
Bahiagrass throws up tall, V-shaped seed stalks three or four days after the lawn is mowed. It is a warm-season perennial that spreads by seed and by rhizomes, so cutting off the seedheads leaves the…

Lawn fungus usually shows up after a stretch of warm, humid weather. Brown circles appear overnight, pale spots spread across the yard, or your shoes come off the grass coated in orange dust. Most lawns…

Bermuda grass spreads in two ways. Runners creep across the surface and root as they go, much like foxtail seed heads spreading through a lawn, and underground stems spread through the top few inches of…
Spurge is the flat green mat that appears along the driveway edge in July, spreading out from a single point as if something spilled. Snap a stem, and it bleeds white. That milky latex is…
You usually smell it before you see it. Somewhere around the second mow of spring, the whole yard comes up smelling like a cutting board, and when you go looking, you find those slick dark-green…
