Grass diseases can be caused by environmental conditions or factors, such as:

  • cold and extended wet periods
  • warm and humid conditions
  • drought and stress
  • high soluble salts and poor nutrition
  • soil compaction
  • chemical damage, which can be a result of your maintenance practises and misuse of other products.
