How To Use Scotts Disease Ex/How To Prevent Lawn Fungus

[@faithjones9157]

The baby crying when you said lawn fungus took me out 😭

[@LawnAmateur]

🤣

[@scouty75]

Glad I found this video. Take all root rot has hit North Texas lawns last year and getting worse. Too much rain. As soon as we get a few days of sun I will use the Disease Ex on my front lawn. Thanks for the info. Your grass looks like a carpet, so pretty.

[@LawnAmateur]

You have to act fast on lawn disease because it'll spread very quickly

[@dannypersaud387]

Bro! You ain’t no lawn amateur! You know you your stuff! Look at that lawn. Looks great! I picked up some of this disease ex as well getting some serious brown spots in central jersey also, but fingers crossed just laid it down after a mow. I bagged everything so no to spread any disease. Raked up all dead looking grass I could so the soil was exposed, put this down and watered it in. Keep up the good work and quality videos! 👍

[@LawnAmateur]

Lol I appreciate the support. I try, I know the basics lol but yea you definitely have to get the lawn disease under control early before it causes major problems. Good luck you seem to have everything under control. 👍

[@srschabel]

1st - Nice lawn! Great color and thickness. Very lush! 2nd - great info on fungus - I overlooked it this year and am paying the price now. Your video is really good because it shows what the early onset looks like. Something I’ve missed the past few years. I like how you’re very particular about your lawn. I wish you were my neighbor. I’ve got weed fields on both sides of my lot. Keep up the informative vids...thx!

[@LawnAmateur]

Thank you 😂😂😂. Yea the lawn disease will sneak up on you fast.

[@effjay8010]

Front Range Colorado my lawn hasn't been dry in a month and I've got horrible brown patch. Thanks for the video.

[@LawnAmateur]

Yes that consistent moisture in the lawn will do it everytime. I'm glad I could help thank you for watching

[@effjay8010]

@@LawnAmateur Much respect your place looks great!

[@glendaraehilyard9524]

Thanks so very much. I have been all over locking, and getting more confused. I appreciate more than i can say ❤❤

[@LawnAmateur]

No problem I'm glad I could help

[@hacksaw413]

Thanks I'm just starting out and getting a decent lawn. Keep up the videos.

[@LawnAmateur]

Thank you

[@goboyz8016]

You may want to hit it with some Eagle 20ew also. It gives you a quick heal and the curative, plus you get the long term with the Disease Ex. Eagles kills things that Disease Ex can miss. Good job. Lawn looks great.

[@TrippKnightly]

Like ... dollar spot.

[@pillcosby3949]

I tried disease x last fall and it did nothing to help my lawn unfortunately.. the leaf spot/melting out stayed dormant all winter and immediately came back a couple weeks ago.. I ended up buying a backpack sprayer and heritage sc and after 1 application my lawn looks back to normal 3 days later

[@LawnAmateur]

Sometimes you may need 2 application

[@cornbread70s4]

Thanks for this video. I’m in central jersey, and I’m getting destroyed by the fungus! Going to get the Scotts product ASAP

[@LawnAmateur]

No problem and yea that Fungus is a huge problem if your lawn isn't protected properly

[@TheLawnGuardian]

Great video! Watering this product in is a good idea since this fungicide is taken up by the root of the plant. Keep up the good work! The lawn looks great!

[@LawnAmateur]

Thank you, I actually caught a break when I applied the product it ended up raining so it worked out perfectly. But thanks for the tip

[@JFPriest]

Yeaha..I am applying it now and It does not say anything about watering in...The hose is coming out when I am done..

[@TheLawnGuardian]

@@JFPriest I know, it's weird that it doesn't say it on the bag.

[@fl8548]

@@JFPriest I actually called Scotts today regarding the water debate since I needed to put some down and never used this product before. Per their representative, "although it doesn't say it need to be watered, the water is what helps activate the fungicide". So I gave mine a quick once over with water after the application.

[@JFPriest]

@@fl8548 I have talked to Scotts Reps before..They are nice..Their jobs are getting harder with so many new products coming out.. I will reapply Disease Ex since it says "Lasts up to 4 weeks".. Thanks for the video

[@justme-ud2vk]

loving the video. good job!!!

[@LawnAmateur]

Thank you I appreciate the support

[@Wardcreek]

Well presented!

[@LawnAmateur]

Thank you

[@whiteroom3222]

Wait for a light rain or water in lightly only. May and July. I am in NY. Zone 7A People don’t realize how much this helps!!

[@LawnAmateur]

Most definitely

[@kennethbatiuk2493]

Awesome lawn!!! Yea I’ve been hit with either fungus or cinch bugs.

[@LawnAmateur]

I learned the hard way but I sort of figured it out. Thank you for the support 👍👍

[@kennethbatiuk2493]

Lawn Amateur learning all the time, but good work the lawn is legit and will just get better with time!

[@frozentundra7446]

Great video and instructions - thank you!

[@LawnAmateur]

Thank you I'm glad I could help

[@tommieny1]

blades may be dull on mower ends look choppy

[@arielrodriguez6980]

Great video! I just read the Home Depot Q&A and per the manufacturer you can water it at anytime however, in order to activate it needs to eventually be watered.

[@GodSaid777]

Rotate fungicides to avoid resistance . Azoxystrobin & Proiconazole Scott’s Disease Ex and BioAdvance Fungus control .

[@shawnaclarkson3402]

I'm going through the exact same thing as you man

[@clintmock5615]

Is it ok to put this down in July I live in northern IN.

[@LawnAmateur]

Yes thats totally fine

[@nelson6936]

I appreciate the video.

[@LawnAmateur]

No problem

[@mrgary6117]

Your lan is thick and dense with good color bro . Where are you located ? Fungus is a big problem this year. I’m in north Jersey and it’s real bad for me

[@LawnAmateur]

I'm in Connecticut and yea the Fungus came out of nowhere. We been getting alot of rain and I didn't get a chance to get down my Fungus preventer so it was bound to happen but it happened so quickly smh.

[@laheart1957]

Should I water the lawn after applying the Disease EX?

[@LawnAmateur]

Yes lightly water in

[@angelamerriweather9498]

Did it work

[@LawnAmateur]

Yes it worked very well and fast

[@fridayufot260]

Do you water this in after you put it down?

[@LawnAmateur]

Yes, the bag doesn't explain that part but yea always water in the product to activate the fungicide into the soil.

[@fridayufot260]

Thank you bro.

[@cbruman2]

What is The applicator you are using? I don't recognize that

[@LawnAmateur]

The Scotts Wizz spreader its battery operated

[@LonghornsLegend]

This stuff turned my grass brown twice and I don't know why. Even in spring when the grass was green and I use preventative gives me brown in some areas

[@LawnAmateur]

Thats weird I never heard of this before

[@johnm3845]

Did you use a lot? I think it'll burn like fertilizer if you use too much.

[@LonghornsLegend]

@@johnm3845 I dont think so but I've used it every month since and it hasn't browned since. Maybe it was killing off some disease I initially had. I've just kept it going every 30 days just in case because in Texas when it's this hot you have to water at night sometimes and that's when I get the disease to pop up

[@untouchablejay6536]

might want to cut a bit lower to get some air flow thru the lawn. I don't know what height ur at but it looks long

[@LawnAmateur]

Yea I'm mowing tall at about 3.75. I may take it down to 3.25 - 3. We'll see how this product do before I make my next decision to cut lower. I just love the mow tall look lol. Thank you for your advice.

[@untouchablejay6536]

btw, EDGE!! LOL keep up the good work

[@Fredmullegun]

Have you checked in to pro products? I'm an amateur, thus why I'm watching but for fertilizer and herbicide I have found the pro products make more sense when you look at price per square foot.

[@LawnAmateur]

I checked out a few maybe in the future I would consider trying some. Right now I'm just trying to get comfortable with the basic products before stepping in the ring with the BIG DOGS lol. Thank you for following the journey

[@donnarizzo3510]

Do you apply to wet lawn?

[@LawnAmateur]

No, apply to dry lawn and lightly water in

[@glendaraehilyard9524]

Is 76 in the evening to hot to apply Scotts disease ex

[@LawnAmateur]

No thats perfectly fine

[@bebejesisoto]

I bought a hoise 10 months ago huge yard problem neglected for yrs. Theres a area of the house mot much sun uts a tall two story home. It looks like different kinds of fungus fuzzy stuff and very soft when i walk on it so i really want to start tackling i but Scotts step 1 all over few days ago i live in Massachusetts. Can I do this now April? And if I fix the issue what is fungus prevention. I want to try to tackle it should I pull up all thats there and start from fresh so concerned. Thanks in advance

[@OscarRodriguez-ln2om]

Good video👏👏 Had a question(s) Can you put this down right after a mow,,,and can you put it down with a low NPK grade fertilizer like IRONITE, (even if I have to wait a day or two for the fertilizer but is it safe)?

[@LawnAmateur]

Yes you can apply this after a mow and with fertilizer. Just make sure you lightly water it in

[@OscarRodriguez-ln2om]

@@LawnAmateur Ty brother

[@bonnieborgeson3200]

Hi, thank you for your info....I would like to know if your patches with NO grass just dirt is the the final result of your disease? I have large areas of total dirt no grass and it is spreading out. My lawn service doesn't know what it is. Thank you.

[@LawnAmateur]

No my patches weren't from the lawn disease. I actually dug up those areas myself to replant grass seed I didn't like the way they were growing in. I would say if you had grass in those areas and then the patches are starting to spread to bare dirt then more than likely you have a lawn fungus because its killing your grass. You have to get a fungicide treatment down immediately to fight off the disease. Multiple applications may be needed in 2 week spans. I hope this helps

[@williamhartman3611]

God your yard is beautiful
