Fungus in the lawn
I have a rear lawn which doesn't get direct sun during winter. Weeds grow significantly during winter but this time I am seeing fungus growing at an alarming rate. I have attached few pictures, please guide on what to be done.

Fungus grows from over watering. Water the grass when the soil has dried.
Re: Fungus in the lawn
Since the lawn doesn't get direct sun light during winter so it remains wet after rains. I noticed this growth after the last rain fall. This lawn has korean grass but it is not that thick probably because the soil condition is not very healthy. I will ensure that no watering is done till it becomes dry but is there any other way of reducing fungus like medicine, fertilizer etc.

Re: Fungus in the lawn
Maybe I would prefer not to use fungicide on grass as I have listened that it is of not that help. For good grass sunlight is necessary but if this is a problem than apply some DAP granules over the grass. May Help.
