- What causes those green clumps in my lawn?
- Two main factors that influence grass to grow in clumps are moisture and soil conditions. If your lawn is irrigated more frequently than the soil can absorb, you'll start to notice that grass grows in clumps. Another reason that grass might be growing in clumps is because of the type of soil you have. If the soil is sandy, you will more likely to get clumps of grass. When you irrigate your lawn, the grass grows in clumps because the water can't penetrate the soil quickly enough. Some grasses are more known for clumping. It is important to know what type of grass you have and if you have bunch-type grass. It might not even be grass and could be a weed such as crabgrass. It is important to identify the types of grass so you know how to identify the solution.
