Texas Bermuda Lawn In November
It's November, but it's still hot and still dry. For now at least. We do have some relief on the horizon. There is some rain in the forecast and a cold front expected to hit later this week. For now, the bermuda is fairing fairly well with the fall. As the cold temperatures hit, the lawn will eventually fade into dormancy, but until then, we're going to hope this rain gives us a green up.

I Haven't Fertilized in Almost 4 Months
Переглядів 2,5 тис.3 місяці тому
We've been having great weather lately! Been blessed with cooler than normal temps and some rain. In all the chaos that is my life, I haven't actually applied a product (aside from PGR) to my lawn in nearly 4 months. Despite that fact, the lawn is still looking really nice. I think this minimalist approach is attractive to a lot of people. Lawn Insider Merch Store: merch.lawninsider.com/ Bermud...
How to Treat Spurge in the Lawn (With RESULTS)
Переглядів 4,3 тис.4 місяці тому
Today I'm treating spurge in my bermuda lawn. I've recently had a little outbreak of spotted spurge in my side lawn, so I've decided to treat it with some Celsius WG. Celsius is an awesome broadleaf weed killer, and one of my favorite things about it is it doesn't have any temp restrictions.

How To Create Stripes In Your Lawn
Переглядів 1,9 тис.4 місяці тому
In today's video I talk about one of everyone's favorite topics, lawn stripes. Some love them, and some hate them, but everyone in lawn care circles talks about them. Striping your lawn is possible with most grass types, but it is far easier to achieve in cool season lawns. There are a lot of theories on how that striping effect is achieved, but in reality it's just caused by the sun's light re...
The Hurricane Missed Us, But Check This Out!
Переглядів 3,8 тис.5 місяців тому
In this video I show a 4 week update of the lawn post-renovation. The yard has made (almost) a full recovery in the face of this Texas sized heat wave. Luckily, we've been blessed with some rain along the way as well. Bermuda grass's ability to self heal has played a huge role in this recovery! Bermuda is resilient, and if it's warm and sunny outside, it will find a way to grow and prosper. Law...
How To LEVEL Your LAWN Using SAND (Includes 3 Week UPDATE!) | Topdressing for a FLAT Lawn
Переглядів 52 тис.5 місяців тому
This video covers how I used mason sand to help level my lawn. The real goal of a sand leveling project is not actually to "level" but to create a flat surface to mow on. Your first step is to mow your lawn down to a low height of cut to make the sand easier to move. I chose to core aerate before applying the sand so I could help with soil compaction and allow the sand to mix better with the ex...
Aerating my Bermudagrass Lawn | Lawn Level Prep Work
Переглядів 28 тис.6 місяців тому
In today's video I aerate my bermudagrass lawn. Aerating is the final step in prep work for my lawn leveling project. Aerating, specifically core aerating, is typically suggested in order to reduce compaction in a lawn. Compaction can make it difficult for water and nutrients to reach the soil layer, as well as making it harder for grass to tack down. In order to reduce compaction in the long t...
Verticutting a Bermudagrass Lawn
Переглядів 4,3 тис.6 місяців тому
Today I'm verticutting my bermudagrass lawn. The distinction between verticutting and dethatching usually lies within the equipment or more specifically, the reel, being used to do the work. Dethatchers usually have flail reels or tines, while verticutters will have fixed blade reels that can slice through the stolons of the bermudagrass. Verticutting can be used to thin out your lawn when it b...
Bringing Down Height of Cut in your Bermuda Lawn
Переглядів 6 тис.6 місяців тому
Today I'm performing a reset scalp on my bermuda lawn. I realize that my grass isn't 3 feet tall, but with bermuda, once you miss a couple mow days, you have to perform a reset scalp to bring your height of cut (HOC) back down. Without scalping, you'll have trouble maintaining a green lawn. Scalping during the growing season is like hitting the reset button on your lawn, and then you can set yo...

Today's video gives a very brief overview of the three most common types of warm season lawns (especially here in Texas), bermuda, St. Augustine, and zoysia. These turf types can be found in warmer climates across the globe, but each offers there own unique sets of advantages, disadvantages, and challenges.

Should You Mow Wet Grass?
Переглядів 19 тис.7 місяців тому
Is it okay to mow wet grass? Well it's not ideal, but sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do. We've been getting a lot of rain in Texas lately and it's been hard to find a good time to mow the lawn when it wasn't wet. Wet grass clumps up, sticks to your lawn equipment, stains your shoes, and makes your lawn more susceptible to disease. Depending on your circumstances though, you might have to...

Groundhog Day in the Lawn | Non-Stop HEAT and DROUGHT
Im about to level an area of my lawn 150'x150' took trees out and it need to be raised about a foot in some spots. Im going to get 5 yrds of sand and 5 yards or top soil. Should i mix them or put sand down first then top soil?
Don't be fooled on zoysia, it hates shade. I love my zoysia tho. If you have shade you just can't have regular grass. Try dwarf mondo grass. All of the areas i have zoysia under shade - the zoysia is weak looking and far more prone to weeds.
What is the best grass for both summer and winter?
I keep telling my neighbor he needs to keep his SA at 3-4 inches. He's jealous of my Tahoma 31 and thinks he can just cut his low to get the same look. His SA is always light green and struggling.
It looks like you are using the verticuttter as a scarifier? 😮😮😮
Are you going to lay any rye down?
Thanks for REAL information. Tom Byrne
Absolutely the most thorough explanation I have ever seen
Much thanks, my lawn still looks good, thanks to your Halloween plan. great info, well presented. Tom Byrne
Nice job going step by step to explain how it works pretty educational video 👏
Congratulations for your videos. Any chance I can have your email I would like to ask you specific questions. I live in Houston. I would appreciate it
where can I buy a bermuda seeds? thanks!
Should bermuda in Texas (I am in Fort Worth) be kept a little higher than in the summer to protect the roots?
There's a recommendation that I saw online that I've been using. The 12321 method. Early spring- .5" one time a week, weather warms more- 2X a week, very hot- 3X per week. Weather cools- 2X, weather cools more- 1X per week.
hi , what kind of TORO lawn mower this one is Sir?
It’s called a Toro Greensmaster 1000. Mine is older. You can find some on the second hand market.
I took this year off, but I’ll be doing this annually from now on. I loved my initial results and I know doing this more often will only improve the lawn. 👍
Mhmm and the more you do it, the less work it needs!
can you just use an aerator at 2.5inches or does it have to be a probe?
If you aerate and pull plugs you can use those.
Lawn looks on point as always.
Hopefully football season continues after this Friday!
Are those the Govee lights I have some they're pretty cool. 2:44
Keep it up my friend, fellow Central Texan & fellow Bermuda Bandit! Dont worry about life and how it impacts YT. Aint full time - ill be here when you upload next time! I am waiting for NeoLeafs Wall Wash Lights 100-150' - yours & everyone's wall wash lights are laborsome and they seemed to be the quickest w/ quality. I hope you enjoy yours!
We got .22 west of I-35 this morning. I mowed and sprayed some SLS 16-4-8 and GS Green Envy late yesterday afternoon. Might have 1 more mow left to go.
Love the lights! Yes, please do a video with links!
Are you going to put down some chicken poop fertilizer down to winterize your lawn earthworks fert
You're gonna regret using those types of lights......I went w/ WS2811 lights in tracks and wled. Much better setup.....
Question. I’m in the Austin area. When we get our eventual cold temperatures, how should I prepare the lawn for dormancy? Should I cut it super short or just cut it regular for the winter?
I tapped out in September this Year lol stopped watering and everything
Hey Rhett, I live in the San Antonio area. I have a couple of bare spots in the lawn. What can I do to protect the soil from this coming winter?
Agree with 2quick about a link to those lights and info on that fence stain? Thanks from San Antonio.
Pretty cool. I’M in Seguin and just installed my permanent outdoor lights and love them😎 Put down the pre emergent on Friday so just waiting for the rain.
Those drunk lines. Lol
Hey, do you do anything with your irrigation system if a freeze is coming to protect the pipes?
Shut the water off to the irrigation and open the vents on your flow back device. Some people blow compressed air through their systems, but I don't.
CLIBBINZ!!!!
What variety of bermuda is that?

Saved this video. Big help for me. Ty
Glad you found it helpful!
Have you tried collecting water from rainfall and storing it for when you need to use it ?
I haven't. I've thought about it a lot! Need to look into it.
Do you think that you could use an electrical lawn sweeper that is used for artificial grass to work the sand into the canopy ? I am thinking about buying one for this purpose
I bet you could. I've seen some people use something similar.
Wow i want this for my backyard
Does prodiamine work against Khaki weed? The stuff has been really bad this year out in west Texas. Thanks.
It's not labeled for it. According to A&M there aren't any pre-emergents that currently list khakiweed on their label, but the active ingredient isoxaben might be effective.
@LawnInsider the weed is a nightmare! I saw a guy in San antonio saying he had good luck with it.🤞
Why not just take care of that narrow strip that belongs to your neighbor? It would make your yard look even better! I've got a neighbor that doesn't really take care of his part so I just do it. He's never said a word.
Very helpful video indeed. I was always depending upon my sprinkler guy but now with practice I can do it in my own. Thankyou so much for this video. Very helpful.
I’m glad you found it helpful! Being able to DIY is a huge benefit.
Hello I have the perfect house for you if you go to Huston !
I'm in Laredo use to have Bermuda in my first house but need it to sell it back in Sept. 2018. this February move in to our new house but the lawn is St. Agustin. Didn't go well its all dry even tough it has irrigation system. i will try this coming season to make it look more strong healthy and greener and if not ill change it to Bermuda. Thanks for the help with tips in all your videos.
How do we winterize and do a sprinkler blowout?
I have the same sprayer and TJett nozzle. What position do you have your sprayer’s min/max dial to give you the 1 gallon per sq ft rate?
California stores dont sell the bayer product 😢. If anyone out there has some extra, i will happily pay you for the product and shipping!!
Thank you for the tutorial sir . Hagd ! 😎
i love you this is amazing
thank you for this bro
Spurge was awful for me last year. Thankfully it’s only in garden beds this year 😂
