I’ve been using super juice on a tall fescue lawn in the transition zone for 2 years, along with Pgf complete, humichar and Milorganite , my yard is amazing.
Doc also recommends letting your grass “wake up” to 50 percent green before scalping and applying it for that effect. You should be applying PFG complete prior to the yard greening, right before greening
I started using Super Juice 5 weeks ago so I’ve put down 5 treatments. My lawn is lush and beautiful green and thick. It actually looks like Doc’s lawn 😁 I’m sold on this stuff. I’m in the Dallas area.
From the FAQ page: "Having the liquid stay moist also helps absorption via foliar absorption, so early evening applications may see better results." It also mention "early spring application" though it does not mention 50% greening. Maybe its best to wait till you get some green and since you are still scalping your actual greening will be a bit slower. Though, your soil should be benefiting from the early apps. Just something to consider. And Doc, don't cut extremely low...I believe his cut is 1 to 2 inches...a bit more foliage to absorb through.
What are you using on your front yard? We all need to remember, Doc is trying to sell a product, so he's going to make it sound amazing even if it's not. I've noticed that he stopped saying it could be a primary fertilizer and has resorted to supplement.
In the video you used 6 cups of Super Juice powder, exactly how much water did you have in that mixing bucket before pouring it out into the hose-end sprayers? Also trying to understand how many cups of Super Juice can be dissolved in 1 gal of water. Thank you!
Try spraying it down weekly. My lawn is almost fully green but I think I'm ahead of you by 3 weeks as far as weather here in central texas. I'm on my third application. I also put down the anderson fertilizer.
Victor Esparza yeah I normally would apply weekly, but I’m trying to stay as true to the recommendations as possible for review purposes. I’m actually being generous for applying the 2nd round at just 13 days for a 14-2-4 ratio. At the full rate, it is recommended to put out every 3-4wks. I know Doc says he does the 7-1-2 ratio every wk.
@@reelbobshady7458 I have tru green service they did put down their fertilizer but for 2 weeks I didn't really see results an then weather did warm up a bit here in NC and weekly rain....I have been spraying super juice every week after cutting for last 2 weeks and I have seen drastic results.....but results only happened after grass came out of dormancy
I’m glad you are making this review. I just put my first application down today. At which I am doing a 14 2 ratio and will be applying weekly. I’m looking forward to your final thoughts on this products. Since I have only heard Docs thoughts about his product.
Good luck to your channel I am from the Tulsa area. I wonder how a patch of grass or garden scape would compare with one using 50/50 mature biochar with compost vs superjuice. Looking forward to your results especially for our crazy weather in mind
Also remeber that docs yard wasnt made with super juice...he used a wide ingredient list of stuff to make his earlier "juice" doc has also said that he sprays a 7-1-2 mix every week during the green up.
What a great series this is thanks!! I'm on my fifth week as I apply every Thursday. On the 18th will be my 6th time and I can say its looking good. I will drop the pgf 16-0-8 that Doc suggests this Thursday as well. Try going weekly and add some fertilizer give it some time you wont be disappointed. Also keep in mind Doc had his soil tested and added the necessary amendments as well. He's on top of the turf game.
chris a yeah, I’m trying to stay as true to the recommended application provided by Doc on the website for review purposes. I want to provide an unbiased review by not changing it up. But, I believe feeding more often may be necessary with this product, which would change the bag coverage claim, rate claim, or timeline claim.
@@reelbobshady7458 I agree you not putting much down each time you use this product hence spoon feeding. I heard my local horticulturalist say to use less more often.
Looks like they use something with more iron.. up the iron with liquid iron as he says in his videos.. my yard looks amazing and I use super juice with added iron..
I should tell you that Doc recommended that you use organic fertilizer first then The Super juice second then the juice to allow to rest for 12 - 24hrs then water the lawn down.. Also the time of the seasons matter as well. Also Doc demonstrated on Bermuda Grass.
Great review series, looking forward to the next update. Can you give us an add of info on what your last year applications of "???" prior to using Super-juice...
That’s disappointing, I have a neighbor down the street who did full app and then has been spoon feeding every week since. His grass looks pretty good (6 weeks In) I’ve done one app of 18-0-1 and looks pretty close to his. I was thinking spoon feeding 18-0-1 and see what happens.
chris a yes sir I will. Unfortunately, I have had torrential rains the last 2 days, and a few more in the forecast. As soon as it all clears up, and I can get back in the yard I’ll get one up.
The Lawn Tools not much brother. At a bag rate claiming to cover 43,560ft even at the 14-2-4 ratio the LBs of N/1000ft is light. Front yard is a secret blend of Bob’s Awesome Sauce!
Interesting. I waited until I saw the green haze as Doc suggested. I scalped and have been on the 4th week of spraying the 'Super Juice' using his ghetto (old) recipe. My lawn looks about the same as your neighbors lawn. I will say and suggest that we have taken into consideration that Doc's lawn is in much better condition than our lawn. That may be why it looks better?!? If you look at his neighbor's house known as 'Barb' it doesn't look as good as Doc's, but it is getting there. I am in Central Texas and about 2 weeks behind Doc's based on ground temps. I wish you luck.
@@reelbobshady7458 Following doc's spring spray plan. I am spraying once a week for 6 weeks after the scalp. Of course, I am still using the liquid mix so the mixutre is probably more than the single ratio. I will be switching to the powder probably this summer.
@@FatHouse13 Yes. I dilute Humic DG pellets in a 5 gal Home Depot bucket using warm/hot water. I stir and pour out what I need weekly. I then add Liquid Lawn, Iron and dye marker. I do what Doc does for the rest of the procedure with the green top bottles. I just ordered my first bag of power Super Juice this weekend.
doc has applied different types of fertilizers including his test super juice/liquid lawn prior to winter....so his soil is much healthier and will green up much faster than the average homeowner starting to use super juice....I think doc exaggerated the effects of super juice just a little to much and should not use his lawn as proof to why it works. Super juice has not been tested that long...not even for a year. Has not been tested on any other lawn nore grass type. So there will be a lot of changes i believe in the coming year. Specially in application rate and usage. I think for something being so new, the price of super juice is pretty ridiculous.
I think you’re missing the step of lawn augmentation which he stresses through his videos. Also, doc begins the season with a 10-10-10. You may want to go back and look at the guide to be fair. Good video though.
It works for me I did my first application heavy for 2 weeks and on my 3 week I started half dose and my Bermuda was greener that any body in my street. I'm in the northwest Atlanta area.
reviewing products from high subscriber channel is good way to build your own audience. I subscribed - so it works. I have to say that I've been using Docs Super Juice weekly for about 6 weeks and its worked great. My lawn is greener than all my neighbors. I scalped in April (I live in GA like Doc does). I think your results have more to do with scalping than with the juice. It is possible that Urban Farm would provide similar results. I might try that since it is less $$ - but for now Super Juice is working great.
One app in 13 days won’t do it if you haven’t been following his other things to do PLUS, you must not have been listening to him cause he say spray more than that and water have you done that!? Go back to the drawing board!! You should have followed his calendar too!!
Nicole Bolston thanks for the response. This is a review of the product as a primary fertilizer (as marketed on the web), not as a supplement to a broader maintenance program. I’ve had over 11 inches of water within the last month. I think I’m good on water. Thanks again.
Geeze applying that every week in a hose end sounds like hell on earth to me. There is much better and easier ways to have a kick ass lawn. Just saying...
Not trying to be rude, I appreciate your video and really find this experiment valuble..we all have our "quirks" but the amount of "uhhh's" in your video are staggering and make it hard to watch... just some constructive criticism is all.
The super juice is a foliar spray. If you have a lot of leaf area to absorb it, it will work. If you spray it on dormant grass it won't.
I’ve been using super juice on a tall fescue lawn in the transition zone for 2 years, along with Pgf complete, humichar and Milorganite , my yard is amazing.

Probably because he has other fertilizers he sells or is about to sell.
You will get the same or better results from using urban farm liquid lawn or kelp4less extreme blend
@@bigboostable and save $40
I guess you haven't watched recent videos because he's claiming that's all he's used this year.
Appreciate these reviews, was wondering if Doc is all hype

Big thing why Docs yard is so green with it is that he hadn’t cut it. He just cut it in one of his last videos and barely took anything off he said.

@@reelbobshady7458 Sorry, to answer the other part of your question I put it down every week.

True! 😂
You should ask your neighbor what he uses because his yard looks nice and green.
Yeah it is some what green but look at all that thatch.
It’s a supplement. Need to use other fertilizer with it.

At this point you are expecting too much since the weather (growing season) is not optimal yet.

Your grass is scalped. It won't absorb
Your Reel Shady Bob!! Cause the Super juice WORKS!! And I’m a female that care for my OWN YARD!!
Good stuff! I’m glad you’re enjoying some yard work. Everyone should.
Scalped vs not scalped not a fair comparison.

Why are you scalping your yard when you’re testing a product Huh.
