The cooler temperatures also affected pollinating insects, which either stayed dormant later or emerged in a lackadaisical mood and weren’t as active. Reminds me of trying to get out of bed on a cold winter morning when I’d rather stay curled up under a nice down comforter. Q. At the end of summer this year, I noticed this strange growth in my lawn. It appears to look like “Great Stuff” foam. It’s hard on the outside and seems to “grow” through the lawn. At the point I broke it off, inside of it, it’s dry and the color of hot chocolate. In the lawn it appears to be growing just below the surface like a spiderweb.
Nutgrass is an obnoxious weed that is very hard to eradicate. It grows in all types of soil, produces tough, strap-like leaves with a papyrus-like ball structure on top. You can dig out each piece by the root, and the root looks like white, hard nodules. As you’ve discovered, it forms a massive, web-like underground structure.
