Red Thread tends to be a bit of a nuisance rather than a fatal lawn disease as it does not kill the roots of the grass plant. Red thread is a fungi that lives in the lawn but is dormant until it favours the right conditions which is wet and warm Werther is ideal conditions it can transfer from grass blade to grass blade by water droplets on the lawn.

There are several advantages to using wetting agents:
- Save up to 50% on water use.
- Penetration: Significantly improves the movement of any moisture through the soil to the root zone instead of water draining right through or sitting on top of the soil. Helps to disperse water evenly throughout the soil Effectively moves water to the right places and spreads it through the soil to benefit the whole lawn. Essential nutrients will be better able to access the roots, as nutrients use water to travel through the soil.
- Retention: Retains water at the root zone for longer, making it more readily available for the grass plant. This can reduce the amount of water the lawn needs
Lawn Seeding and Top Dressing in Parts of Doncaster and Surrounding Areas
When we seed or overseed a lawn, we only use Seed that is Defra approved and to the highest purity, germination and quality we will Always asses your lawn to see what grass seed mix will suit best on the lawn.

All the grass seed mixes we use are treated with Mycorrhizae.
What is Mycorrhizae? It a naturally occurring beneficial fungus that forms a symbiotic relationship with the grass plant. It attaches to the roots and becomes extensions of the root system. This dramatically expands access to moisture and nutrients from the soil. In return, the host grass plant feeds the fungi with sugars and organic substances
