This past summer, we noticed some brown patches in the yard around our pool. Thinking that this meant the grass was dry, I watered it. Only to find out later, this was the last thing it needed. Turns out that the yard had been getting too much water. This combined with the high humidity had caused a fungus to grow. After taking a closer look, I could even see a moldy-looking film on the ground beneath the grass. This fungus was the cause of the brown patches of grass.
