The first thing you want to do is verify how much water you have in the lawn. Ideally we want 6-8 inches of water saturation in the soil. Without water the grass goes into stress dormancy and goes brown. Lawns are sensitive to this process and if you leave your grass dry for too long it dies. Its important to act fast. Once the grass goes brown we usually have two weeks to wake it up.

Step 1 is to push the water back into the lawn. We do not want to water too much too soon. I recommend for the average system to water 1 hour daily for 6 to 10 days to catch the soil back up. For hunter mp rotator systems this means you'll need to water two hours per day or more. I recommend watering each zone 15 minutes at a time 4 times per day. this helps the water saturate into the soil. If you push too much water too fast the water will run off the top.

Step 2 is using a recovery product. My preference is essential plus 1-0-1 at 4oz per 1 gallon over 1000 sq ft. Other products such as greene county fert's rgs and Revive granular works great.

Optional Step
- If the dead spots have sat longer than 2 weeks it may be wise to lightly rake through the dead matter. this will help encourage the new growth to find the sunlight.
