- I was nervous after completing my first ever sand leveling project on my lawn, but what has happened since?
In just a matter of days the lawn recovery is going strong and I am back to reel mowing. Today I'll show you the results from the topdressing and overseeding and what I have learned about the sand leveling process so far. I also apply a round of fertilizer and Soil Hume with kelp to help push root growth this fall. Now is the time to get your fall program going!

Wow I can't believe how crappy everyone else's lawn looks on your street. Makes your lawn look even better
The reno project across the street looks pretty nice, I am looking forward to the update on that one... but otherwise yeah it’s total domination
They have thousands of dollars back in their pockets and lots of time back in their control though.
What this guy does is a full time job and it is unrealistic for most people.
@@someguy5035 it’s not really un realistic. Rye grass is easy, I hardly do any of the fertilizing that he does and my Rye in AZ looks amazing in our cool season.
@@Ryandoesdifferentthings I agree that having a decent yard is realistic.
Everything he does though? Unrealistic. He mows every day. Special mowers. Chemicals. Rollers. He says he is doing something in the yard every day.
Not even kidding and no clue how it happened, haven’t opened UA-cam in a few hours. But, opened it while in the Taco Bueno drive thru and the video was already 4 seconds in. You are a true wizard Ryan Knorr 😂😂
lowering the property value of every other house near him with that kind of lawn😂
Actually he's raising all their property values.
@@chrisv.6951 Yup 😂
Hey Ryan I'm a huge fan. I've decided to give my lawn the much needed tlc it was lacking. But thanks to your detailed and informative videos I've managed to repair it in just a few weeks! Thank you so much for helping us DIY lawn people to achieve such amazing results. Keep up the great work and continue to show that passion that shows through in every video you post. Cheers
Noticed the back looks either very dormant or sprayed out! Can't wait to see what you've got planned!
It always makes my day when I open up UA-cam and see a RyanKnorr video. Excited for the backyard announcement
I appreciate you watching!
Amazing! Front is looking so good after that sand leveling. I overseeded and aerated and just gave some lawn energizer to it. Pushing a bunch of growth right now, it’s dark green and full! This weekend marks the 3 week period since I overseeded. Going to cut it and continue following your plan.
Ryan, great channel and videos. I've been following along this year with your program and my yard has never looked better. Getting a delayed start on my backyard renovations as we had snow last week (Colorado Springs), which meant turn off sprinklers but I've turned them back on. Watching soil temps and think I'm good for the rest of the month, so reseeding this weekend. Keep up the great work!
Southeast Michigan here. We got the same rains you did I think. And, right after I de-thatched, over-seeded some bare spots and fertilized with some granular with iron in it. Lawn has popped! Learned a lot from your videos / channel and my lawn has never looked better. Thanks!
Good stuff!
I just finished leveling my lawn Today. Thank God I was watching one of your videos and you introduced me to a level lawn rake this tool is worth every penny I spent on it.
It's a fantastic tool
Just incredible... 1/2" and still that green and full? How is that possible.
Brooming and a lot of it
Ryan Knorr Lawn Care your soil has been taking care of for years too!
@@BrodeyDoverosx absolutely
Rye grass is very forgiving, just need sun, water, and milorganite
The quality and content in these videos is remarkable. I really appreciate the work you put into all of this, Ryan!
Thanks!
Used a 10-10-10 in the spring and the beginning of fall for the first time this year. Was very pleased with the results.
Good stuff for a quick hit when you need it
Looking good Ryan. I'm two weeks into my 8,000 sf renovation. The PRG is coming on strong. Hoping to see some KBG germinating soon. Thanks for all inspiration.
I’m basically doing this same program/things already except I’m using Fertilizer from my CO-OP. Putting down 12-12-12 right now, AMS spray grade w/FEature, and basically watching the grass grow at my Reno lawns. What I got out of this video ... Graffiti Ghosts, thanks for the new tunes to jam out to.
I’m incredibly jealous! Here in our area, we have to wait another 3-4 weeks to over-seed. The soil temps are still in the 70’s!
Looking great Ryan. Love the fall for mowing. I just did a scalp and over seed with new KBG cultivars that are different to my existing lawn so will be a few weeks before I can mow. If all goes well and the weather cooperates I will be back to mowing first week in October with my new Liberty 43.
Picking up sand this week and throwing it down this weekend. cant wait!
This is true #lawndomination . I stopped the video at 2:45 to take a quick look at the yards in your neighborhood. 😂🤣😂. You not only have the best looking lawn (which compared to theirs doesn't look to be hard) but you have a yard that is top 10 of any ones. Keep up the good work and thank you for sharing your experience with everyone. We all appreciate it!
You have 1 epic yard man.
Excited to see updates coming soon. I really like the project lawns its fun to watch.
I’ve been waiting for this!!
It's a nice lawn! I'm watching from Japan.
It was all business up front I wanted to hear about the party in the rear... guess I need to wait till the next video. #mulletlawn
Do you ever "accidentally" fertilize the neighbors yard along the edge to see if they get the idea of whats possible for them? Cause yeah I do!
As much as I detest HOAs, mainly because of the constant overreach of authority, at least the properties in the community are required to be kept up.
My neighborhood is older, built early 80's, no HOA. Many people take pride in their properties, but it's every 4th or 5th house where they make zero effort.
Great watch as always. Nice recovery, lawn looks fantastic
Looks great! Can’t wait for the huge back yard announcement!!
Looks great. We greened up here in Northern Illinois as well with the 5 days of rain. 🍃👍
If I was your next door neighbor I would be so jelly
Your front yard looks great. Don't know if I just lack skill, or it is more difficult than you make it look, but I cannot get my yard smooth. Despite "leveling" with sand, it still ungulates. Or maybe it is just me, the owner, who knows all the imperfections. I will keep working at it. Thanks for all the great videos.
I get so excited when I get on youtube and see you have put up a new video!!
Dang it now you made me want to level the heck outta mine and overseed! The sod is only a year old but it's so doggone lumpy so it's making me nuts!
I think you know what the answer is :)
Rainmaker Ryan back at it again! Love that epic slo-mo B roll!
i'm in IL and we definitely needed all that rain!
Amazing job! Looks so much better now
It's coming in nicely! Shining like a new penny as Pete Denny would say.
Yard looks absolutely amazing Ryan !!
Love this channel. Learned so much
Didn't expect to learn this much about lawn care with Matt Damon.
Batt Damon*
I've never seen a mower like that; I like it.
They use it on golf courses around the greens
2:43 wow... what a lawn, your grass is greener than your neighbors .., by alot! great job!
Looking good Ryan. That was quite the week of rain.
Four inches of rain and the sand still hasn't all settled in yet? Wow. I would've thought that would take care of it. Looks great, as always btw.
I was going to ask about the backyard. The difference between the side and back during that one shot is epico.
Soon...
I have same mechanical machine myself and I was stepping along and I felt a webble wobbles in my wheels which are little wheels and flipped up twisted in a sideways kinda motion twisting up hurling to the right landed and shook as it spun out spinning
Love all your videos. So I reseeded my front lawn 6 weeks ago and it’s coming in really well. I live in Massachusetts and winter will be coming soon. What should I do to get ready for it??
I just put my sissygrass down on this past Sunday the 13th and man this always makes me nervous. We’ve got a little rain coming in tomorrow but doesn’t look like anything for a week otherwise. Watering for a couple minutes 3x/day to keep the seed from drying out. Even the spots that I spread some peat over.
Wow just stumbled upon this video and thought wow this guy looks familiar . Used to watch your covers all the time
Dang! Omaha didn't get any of that rain. Picking up truck load of dirt this weekend (loam/topsoil), fixing some low spots, aeroate and over seeding with GCI TTTF. Tried local TTTF last year, didn't have much success. Hopefully last year of over seeding, would really like to get that fall pre-emergent in sometime. Cheers!!
Great job thanks for all the info it really helps me. Also you have quite the domination over your neighbor!!! Keep it up!!!!
Wonderful job, Mr. Ryan knorr.
I wish one day I can get my 3000 SF to the level of yours.👍
You will get there
Love your videos! I am going to attempt to level my yard this year. You’ve used sand and soil in your videos. What’s best for a yard that is bumpy and has some valleys? Would you wait until the fall, or can I do this anytime?
That is one AMAZING looking lawn 😱
Connor should be watching this channel and taking notes, he could learn something. The Sissy grass is looking good, no bare spots everything filled in really nice and thick and the stripes...looking pretty good 👍
He has been taking notes and overseed ryegrass into his yard weeks ago. 😀
Does Connor call you asking for advice on what to with the bare spots in his yard?
Thanks mr. Knorr
do you have a video explaining what exactly frequent mowing does? Does it redirect growth outward instead of up?
Looks AMAZING!!! Appreciate your experimentation so I don't have to!!! yeah
Any advise on how to get rid of zoysia grass without the obvious use of a shovel?
Omg! Another surprise?! Ryan, you’re out doing yourself. Can’t wait!
You must be the talk of the neighbourhood, totally obsessed
Looks great!
Sissy grass is looking awesome!
Love the videos keep them coming
Oh my god …your neighbour lol. Are they embarrassed to leave the house? Your lawn is amazing. Great job.
Turf looks solid! Enjoy the vids.
Ryan the lawn looks awesome as usual! My goal for next year is to avoid the Fungus issue that decimated my Rye Grass this Summer. In the process of top dressing and a combo of over seeding and slit seeding Midnight KBG and Rye.
Fungus is not fun
Fungus is not fun, Gus.
great break on rain timing
It wasn't until I had a new septic installed that I statrted going all "old man" over my lawn. I'm not about to go buying all this extra equipment for it, but I definetly want to level it and grow some nice thick grass.
It would be GREAT if you published a yearly schedule of lawn maintenance for all us lawn maintenance challenged people.

Yard is looking AMAZING!!! #lawngoals
Love your videos! You may have addressed this before but do your neighbors ask you for advice with their yards? It appears they could use it!!
Looks good.
It's a good thing kids today sit in the house playing on their phone and video games. When i was a kid we would have put 500 bike tire marks across that lawn. Not maliciously. Just because we rode them around the neighborhood every day.
Ryan it would be a gift to so many of your subscribers if you shared with us details around your grass damage caused by iron. (You mentioned it at 4:30 of this video If damage occurred when applied by someone with your level of experience, there must be valuable knowledge you can share about what went wrong and how you might avoid it in the future.
Too high of a rate and didn't get it watered in. That burned it and it was 90 degrees for two months straight after that so there wasn't any ideal recovery weather. Lower rates more often is my plan going forward
was there an adjuvant or tank mix with the iron?
Usually it turns the grass black but nitrogen or Methylated seed oil with iron could do more serious damage to a spot.
I also have a higher pH, like your lawn so learning about anything you add to iron applications would be pure gold. Methylated seed oil and nitrogen?
Your lawn does have the best color of all the lawncare channels on UA-cam and that's with alkaline soil.....wow!
Hi, love your work. What type of reel mower are you using in this video that also stripes?
Nice work! Looking forward to the video of the backyard for us, "normal yard" folk! :) Also, just have to give ya a hard time that I would have thought that your sidewalk edging would be a bit better!
Looking so good!
Shots fired to nameless C.W. He probably has cows using his yard as a pasture again.
no doubt!
Do I need to rake up the grass after detatching or can I let it go for the next mowing?
We need major help in our yard. I’m going to do exactly what your doing and I’ll give you an update when it starts looking great! How do I help a part of my yard that just stays wet? Need major help! Thank you!
Wish I got anything rain wise. I'm so sick and tired of dragging hose around my 10sqft twice a day for the fall overseed.
I've been dragging sprinklers around 5000 sqft all year. Next year were getting in ground irrigation... Ha ha!
I drag hoses for my 10k sq ft lawn.... Much more satisfaction that in ground
Aside from that rain we got in that week it has not rained since and doesn't look to be any time soon. What an odd year
I think that backyard is getting a full reno!
Can you use topsoil after you have done a topdressing with masonry sand? Or vice versa?
Wow you didnt get nearly the rain that we did on the east side of the state. I had 8.625 inches in 4 days!
Looking good!
Man you’ve had more rain then us up here in the PNW. Been incredibly dry (and Smokey)
That is basically the only rain we have had. :(
you can say that again. 6 weeks since I've had any precipitation and that was .03 inches.
Good results
I'm not sure if this is a question that has already been answered but can a sand/soil mix be used for leveling? Or do you think one or the other is best? Lawn looks pristine my dude!
Ryan, I'm in North Dakota. Planted 1,200 square feet of new lawn in July removing a 80 year old gravel granular driveway that looked horrible. Lawn looks great thanks to watering and Simple Lawn Solutions products and Root Ruckus, but its super bumpy. What type of sand did you use?? Does the sand really last long term as a leveling agent ? Hope to hear from you.
Like your video. Where can I buy the mower like yours. Thank you!
What type of sand should be used to level the lawn? I have a couple areas where trees were removed and the lawn has sunk in those areas.
ua-cam.com/video/jBN6Up6jDeg/v-deo.html
Wow i wish my grass was that nice
The yard recovered fast - holy crap! - I purchased a few items from your Amazon store, simple lawn solutions for my lawn reno (newly seeded yard).
Hi Ryan, really enjoy your content. I notice you have/use a Hitachi gas blower. Love mine, but it is getting quite old and do not think it is available anymore. Do you have another model you can recommend? Thanks in advance, Joe.
I live in NW of Oregon, how do I find out what zone I am in?
Another question, what grass seed do you recommend?
Did you notice a difference in the smoothness on your first mow after the sand dressing? Lawn looks amazing !
The side yard is better for sure. It needs another round to be where I want it to be
Hey Ryan, I love your videos. I bought a house last year and have been putting in a ton of time trying to get my yard to look amazing. I've used weed killer to get rid of my dandelions but they're really slow to die so I've been picking them out and filling holes. My yard was always really lumpy and I'm interested in doing some leveling. I live in Seattle and it's now June 24 and the sun is finally coming out. Is it too late too level? Will the sand/top soil mixture be too much with the summer heat for the grass to stay alive? Also, what kind of sand do you use? I've heard people say play sand is too fine and dusty, so they use medium grain (which is more expensive). Also, after doing the leveling, how long do you think I should wait to introduce some new seeds? If you don't recommend, I will spot seed on all my patchy spots from digging out dandelions. Thank you so much for your help!
Who’s breaking rules now Connor
Connor great I wish I new how to do this never works for me
I am over seeding. What can you tell me about Scott’s 3- in-1 seed.
GREAT YARD !!! WHAT TYPE of KENTUCKY BLUE GRASS (from where)?
