Brown Grass

JSJS Posts: 10

My lawn has developed several patches of brown growth (thatch?) which despite use of "weed and feed" will not go away.

Any Advice.

    I agree, a photo will help with a proper diagnosis and enable us to make informed suggestions.

    However, if it is 'thatch',  it won't just 'go away; it  needs raking out, either with a hand lawn rake, or an electric one.

    I've had a PM from JS saying that he's posted some photos,  but I can't see where ... anyone?  image

    It's probably dead patches from overspill of weed and feed maybe?. I have a few patches like that this yearimage

    They'll need raking out ... but I'm repeating myself image
