Winter turf tips for the best lawn care on the south shore

South shore lawn care

You may not notice the effects now but there are potential problems lurking in your turf system that can cause major eyesores in the spring.  Many homeowners on the south shore are familiar with summertime lawn fungus such as dollar spot and brown patch.  Maybe less familiar to some are fungal pathogens that thrive in winter conditions.  Snow mold is the most common of these winter fungi and can be classified as either gray or pink.  In our current cycle of snow falling and melting within weeks, pink snow mold is the most likely pathogen. Gray snow mold requires consistent snow cover of 70 days or more to survive.  In order to achieve the best lawn care on the south shore, we begin thinking about the health of your lawn even in January.
