Real Turf Solutions LLC

We have been getting overwhelming calls about brown spots and dead areas showing up in yards everywhere. Please realize we are extremely hot and dry for this time of year. No matter how much rain we had previously if we go 3-4 days with no heavy rains that water is no longer in the soil.
Please make sure irrigation system is working correctly and set for proper times.

Signs of heat stress are:
Silver/bluish tent to the grass
Leaf blades folding in longways(last 2 pictures are an example)(blade of grass that is opened is getting proper water)
If you step in the grass and you can still see your foot print remaining behind

These are signs of your grass telling you it needs more water. If you notice these sings only in specific spots and not the entire hard then that one specific area isn’t getting the coverage that it needs and you need to turn on the system manually and see what’s going on.

As always do not hesitate to call us with any questions or concerns. We are always here to help 😊 but 99% of the calls we have gotten in the past month have all been water related.
