Hello Everyone,

I have some extremely pale yellow patches around the edges of my lawn that don't seem to be getting any better with watering. I currently irrigate for 30 minutes every other day. I checked with a 6 inch screwdriver and was able to fully insert it at all points in my lawn so I think I am watering deep enough. I last applied Scott's Summerguard a few weeks ago but the patches were already like this and have not improved. I'm wondering if maybe it is some kind of disease? My lawn gets sun all day and temps here have been in the high 90s every days for the last month or so. What do you guys think?

^ +1 chlorosis or leaf spot fungus. Get a straight walls container (eg. Empty tuna can) and audit how many inches your irrigation gives you.

Also, your lawn looks too long. It is falling down. It could cause more fungus if it doesn't dry.
