I don't have bottom leaves on my rubber tree. what should i do.?
I thought about cutting off the top for rooting and let the bottom stay in the pot.
I would try to fertilize it. That should help it bounce back.
Did you send this picture to the guys that installed it, or have them come out? Since it was an expensive project, I would have them or a yard maintenance guy give you a consult.
After six month use "Spring to Autumn" treatment to Green up, Feed and Kill any weeds. Read the label on all packaging before use. Do not use Chemicals until you know the exact reason why you want to use them and then get the correct ones to use.
Unfortunately they went out of business.
Looks like it needs fertilizer, but i would take a sample of it to a nearby lawn specialist, or have somebody come out. Grubs are easy to spot, patches of dead grass, when grabbed like a handful of hair, will lift right off the ground, because the grubs have eaten the roots! No lift, no grubs. Sod requires lots of watering the first several weeks, to establish the roots. You may just have die off from lack of water, rain notwithstanding. Have someone take a professional look. Maybe more than one, since everybody's got something to sell.
Moles are also root eaters, but more random than grubs. Get a mole chaser if you don't want to kill them. its a sound emitting device you push into the ground in the vicinity of the moles. It emits a constant high frequency sound that prevents them from sleeping. In a few days, they're gone. Or there are things called mole gassers, which kills them underground. your choice.
PS The yellowing is a sign of low nitrogen, usually.
Newly planted sod can only tolerate Starter fertilizer. I would start with that first.Most likely the installation was not done properly for the sod to develop more then one issue.Look carefully under the dead grass for sod web worms,they are treated differently then grub.
lowes carries a mole poison that is in the form of a gummy worm. It works better than any other product.
All that you do is put one of the wos in their tunnel and they'll find it, eat it, and die in the tunnel no mess no fuss.
Consulting a lawn treatment company is well worth the price because your problem could be anything from mold/fungus to bugs to moles. I had to have my whole yard sodded because of treating it for the wrong thing! After your lawn is treated by the pros, I highly recommend spreading a light dusting of sand. It seeps down into the soil and helps new sod establish stronger roots. I did that 3 or 4 times over the course of Spring and early Summer and my yard looks like lush carpet now.
