Even the yard mastery guy, who seems to be doing something to his St Aug daily and lives in Tampa where the grass doesn't go dormant, is resodding sections of his lawn seemingly every year.

My neighbor has had it for the last ten years and puts down fungicide preventatively.

I try to avoid using unnecessary chemicals but Im starting to believe he’s right.

Too much fertilizer? Thatch
Torpedo grass? No treatment
Top dress sand? Runners won’t spread

It really is like a high drama spouse.
