I don't see anything to worry about. Did you fertilize in the Fall or Spring? Sounds like you're maybe over-concerned that last year's fungus caused by overwatering is coming back. My guess is last year's fungus was also associated with warmer temps? If so, it's not like last year's fungus permanently screwed up your lawn. What's the deal with the neighbor's lawn across the street? Looks like he has bigger problems than you.

I think you are right! I may be a bit over concerned for sure. I am definitely new to actually caring for my lawn and want to make sure it doesn't get destroyed by a fungus. The neighbors across the street let their house go back to the bank. There grass was close to a foot and a half long with trash scattered throughout -the grass has finally laid down but man does it need some help.

Oh man, just the neighbor you want. Let us know how it goes, I think it will be fine. Also, just so you know, it looks like you have kentucky bluegrass and tall fescue mix. Your profile says just fescue so wanted to let you know if you didn't already. The line that runs through the middle of the blade is likely KBG
