From a distance, Red Thread appears as pink to red patches from 4″ to 2 ft. in diameter. When observed more closely, you will see the reddish thread-like fungal structures on grass plants. When there is dew present on the lawn, you may even see small pink tufts on these spots as well. As the fungus grows, smaller spots may turn into larger ones as they connect together to form larger irregularly-shaped areas.

How do I get rid of Red Thread disease?

Almost any lawn is susceptible to this turf fungus. However, it isn’t uncommon for some lawns to have more issues than neighboring properties. Property owners often wonder what can be done to get rid of Red Thread on lawns when it shows up. The remedy is to disrupt the disease triangle so that this fungus stops growing. The disease triangle is used to illustrate how fungi grows on plants, in this particular case, your lawn. The susceptible host are grass plants that are lacking in nitrogen and have started to not grow as aggressively as they have in the months prior. The pathogen is present in the thatch layer of a lawn and impossible to completely remove. When the plant is weak, and the temperature and relative humidity is favorable, Red Thread will begin and continue to grow.

Best Practices

Since it’s not possible to remove the pathogen nor control the weather, the most effective way to get rid of Red Thread is to address the susceptible host plant. Fertilizing lawns in late spring and early summer will help to provide nitrogen. As that nitrogen gets watered in, most lawns will grow-out this specific turf disease problem. That being said, there are instances where Red Thread can become a chronic problem or advance past normal levels and a fungicide treatment may be required. This isn’t typical, but it can happen.

Hiring a Professional

Having a properly executed lawn care program and a lawn care company that employs true lawn care experts can help with your Red Thread issues. Lawn care programs that deliver a steady amount of nitrogen throughout the year, particularly in the times of probably infection, will help your grass to push out this specific disease. Your lawn expert can also let you know if your situation warrants a lawn disease control treatment for Red Thread. Some turf diseases are aggravated by excessive fertilization so be sure to have an expert diagnose which disease your lawn is facing before fertilizing your lawn. If you need help diagnosing or treating a turf disease or other lawn care problem, please don’t hesitate to contact us.

How do I find my soulmate in palmistry?

A deep, straight line reflects a long lasting and strong union. If the line is very long (ending beneath the ring or middle finger) it is said to represent your 'soul-mate'. A line which dips downwards suggests a bullying or domineering partner. A line which turns upwards suggests a partner who is rich or successful.

Did you know you can analyse your relationship history and future simply by reading the lines on your palm?

Firstly, flex your dominant hand a few times and then hold your palm facing you, with your fingers slightly bent. Zoom in on the area directly underneath your little finger, and examine it in a natural light if possible. You may see one or more horizontal lines or creases running from the side of your palm underneath your little finger - these are your relationship lines, and represent the particularly close bonds you will have with others throughout your lifetime. Most people have between 1-5 lines, and it’s interesting to check both hands. Your dominant hand will reflect the relationships which actually happen, and your other hand indicates the potential for new ones. The state of each line’s end (the end is closer in towards your palm, rather than at the edge of your hand) is said to reflect the nature of the relationship.

For instance:

A deep, straight line reflects a long lasting and strong union. If the line is very long (ending beneath the ring or middle finger) it is said to represent your ‘soul-mate’.

A line which dips downwards suggests a bullying or domineering partner.

A line which turns upwards suggests a partner who is rich or successful. A fork at the end of the line predicts a relationship with a sudden ending. A line which looks more like two parallel lines very close together suggests you may live separate lives. Some say that if there are vertical lines branching directly from a relationship line, these represent the children from that bond, or significant things created together.
