So here is my situation. I live in Atlanta. Had a gorgeous Fescue lawn in Front and back. The lawn looked amazing in may and into half of June. I watered just as much as my neighbors with fescue lawns. I expected browning in the summer heat – but no, half the lawn is literally shriveled up dead – there is not even any plant left at all in at least half the lawn front and back. Just keeps getting worse and eventually turning to dirt. This has never happened before even in prolonged drought years. I understand areas of a lwn drying up and dying but this is almost the entire lawn. Is it possible my lawn care guys put the wrong thing on here or overfertilized? I cant explain this. They have already told me it was not the result of fungus or grubs. they say it is just drought which sounds like BS to me. Any ideas here?
