[quote=Anonymous]Could be too much fertilizer. That leads to a build up of salts in the soil, which draws the water away from the grass roots. So even though it is raining, your grass is acting like there is a drought. Especially since you see the yellowing in stripes where the fertilizer would have overlapped in your application (or been moved into rows by the mower. Lay off the fertilizer for the rest of the year and have them mow high: 2.5 to 3 inches. That will give the blade more surface area to photosynthesize and so become healthier. This will give the roots more food and let them become more dense and so your brown bare spots will fill in too. It will suppress weeds naturally, both by creating a more dense lawn and by shading the ground preventing germination of weeds.[/quote]
