Brown Patch is common to many grasses including Bermuda, Kentucky Bluegrass, Centipede Grass, Bent Grass, St. Augustine, and ryegrasses in regions with high humidity and/or shade. Brown patch commonly starts as a small spot and can quickly spread outwards in a circular or horseshoe pattern up to a couple of feet wide. Often times, while expanding outwards, the inside of the circle will recover, leaving the brown areas resembling a smoke-ring.
The best prevention for brown patch is to aerate often, reduce shade to effected areas, and follow a regular fertilization schedule to help prevent excess amounts of nitrogen being applied improperly.
