Diseases and the names used to describe them are abundant on Kentucky bluegrass lawns. One of these problems, a leaf blight, can occur whenever the grass is green. Called Ascochyta leaf blight, this disease is stress related. For example, it may occur on newly sodded turf, or any established lawn that has experienced a dry period. These dry periods can occur in the dead of winter or the heat of summer.
