Black / Purple Spots on Bermuda

8 years ago

Hey everyone,


So it goes without saying it's be a WET summer for much of us in the east. I've put down lawn fungicide twice already and think it's helped a little bit, but there just always seems to be some sort of nasty mold, fungus or algae in my bermudagrass. However, I want to post a couple photos to hopefully rule out pre emergent damage. I applied Dimension (Dithiopyr) about 2 weeks ago, slightly heavier than it calls for, to fight off fall weeds like Poa Annua and Wild Onion. Now I'm nervous that it has actually damaged my bermuda. However, we have been getting dumped on with rain over the last few days, and I'm gonna guess this is actually some sort of fungus or algae attacking the lawn.


Can someone help confirm this, and if you've seen this in your yard, how have you treated it?


Thanks in advance!


-Andy
