🍂 Is your lawn ready for fall?

After a long Indiana summer, compacted soil, thinning turf, and poor water absorption can all take a toll. Core aeration helps open up the soil so water, oxygen, and nutrients can better reach the roots — setting your lawn up for stronger fall recovery and a healthier spring.

Our latest blog breaks down 5 signs your lawn may need core aeration this fall and why now is the time to pay attention.

🌱 Give it a read and see how many signs you recognize in your own lawn!

Learn the signs your lawn needs core aeration this fall and how aeration helps Indiana lawns grow thicker, healthier, and stronger.

🌱 Summer lawn disease - Part 3 of 3

Lawn Rust | Peak: August – October

👀 What It Looks Like: Orange, powdery coating that rubs off on shoes, pets, and mower equipment. Lawn looks yellowish or dull — most visible after hot days with cool, dewy nights.

✅ What You Can Do: Water in the early morning so grass dries before evening. Overnight dew is what allows rust to spread. Keep mowing height at 3.5–4 inches.

🙌 What Brooklawn Can Do: Rust will resolve on its own as the weather changes. Fungicide is an option but costly and short-lived — we typically recommend monitoring.

If you are seeing this in your lawn OR if you have other questions, please reach out to our team, we're happy to help!

🌱 Summer lawn disease - Part 2 of 3

Dollar Spot | Peak: June – August

👀 What It Looks Like: Small bleached or straw-colored spots the size of a silver dollar, merging into larger patches. A white cobweb-like growth may appear on blades in early morning.

✅ What You Can Do: Keep up with watering during dry stretches. Mow at 3.5–4 inches and remove clippings from affected areas.

🙌 What Brooklawn Can Do: Apply a fungicide if spots are spreading. Recommend a nitrogen fertilizer — Dollar Spot thrives in low-nitrogen turf.

🌱 Summer lawn disease - Part 1 of 3

Brown Patch | Peak: July – August

👀 What It Looks Like: Circular brown or tan patches from 6 inches to several feet wide. A darker grayish-green ring may appear at the outer edge in morning dew.

✅ What You Can Do: Water in the early morning only — never at night. Raise mowing height to 3.5–4 inches and reduce heavy fertilizing in summer heat.

🙌 What Brooklawn Can Do: Apply a targeted fungicide to stop the spread. Adjust fertilization timing and flag the area for monitoring.
