Shallow Roots?

DinnerwareEtc
11 years ago

Need some input here. I went thru the extensive process of killing off the entire yard with Round Up, slit seeding my entire yard last fall with Rebel Fescue and installing a sprinkler system. My yard has been pretty green, and thick all year but now I am starting to get some brown spots here and there. I am in DE and it has not been hot at all.

So my questions:

1) I think I have been overwatering.. as my roots are not deep and you can pull my grass out very easily.

Anyone have input if this is the cause of the problem and if so, how should I increase the root strength? Water heavy/less often next season? and should I aerate now? Would this help.

I would appreciate as much input as possible.
