Lawn problem - White Patches
My lawn recently got turfed round about the end if March, the grass was fine but I purchased a new flymo as my petrol lawn mower was ruining the turf. I think the flymo may have cut the grass too short and now my grass has some white patches on it. I think because I never watered my grass and it never rained for a while maybe it has died in some areas but I have now baught a sprinkler and try to use it for at least 15-45 mins a day unless it is due to rain I have went back using the petrol lawn mower as the ground is much harder now and the turf has settled more, I usually cut the grass twice a week Wednesday and Sundays and I vary the direction I cut and I now cut it at about 2.5 inches. The grass is perfect in some areas but in others there are white patches, I applied evergreen extreme green and about 2 weeks later I applied evergreen spray & feed and it has worked to some extent but there is still some patches I will attach some photos. I am fairly new to gardening and looking after my lawn but I hope someone can help me and maybe suggest things I am doing wrong and something's I could do to help. The first picture is 2 week after I applied the evergreen extreme green and straight after I applied ever green spray and feed. The second picture is the day after I applied the spray and feed.
