Default A major factor in fungus can be the time of day one waters.

Watering in the late part of the day allows the grass to remain wet through the night, hence a breeding ground for fungus.

It is also recommended to not water during the hotter parts of the day when the sun can actually heat the water to be harmful to the new blades of grass.

Early morning as in 4 AM plus or minus to your liking is recommended by knowledgeable suppliers and land scapers.
