No matter the grass, it always looks greener and healthier before a mow in my opinion
LCN got me again with that click bait thumbnail. Lol. Another great video !!!
heater., water and a whole lot of love is giving me lawn domination right now. Thanks Allyn!
For St. Augustine, I already did the big ferts earlier with stress blend in March, then flagship at the end of April. Did RGS, Humic 12, and Air 8 earlier in the season as well. Today, I put out Sunnilands 8-0-10 at 5.5 pounds per 1k. Did DiseaseX as well since we're in the rainy season. Other than a little bit of sedge, my lawn has never looked better. Also, last week sprayed Hydretain and was blown away at how well the grass looks like it's been watered but hasn't been. The dry spots in the lawn are gone. Just want to thank you Allen for all the help.
Probably would get the same result with a 30$ bag of straight urea 46-0-0 and some chelated iron. 🤦🏻♂️
@@nathanielsnyder1323 Just curious where this magic bag of 46-0-0 straight urea is that contains the numerous soil amendments and fungicide I mentioned? I'm all for a cheaper, easier way to do things.
My neighbor and I have equally green lawns. I take great pride as do you. What separated us? I had flowers and beautiful landscaping. He was hopelessly not creative. 🤣He was boring AF.
Lawn care nut, how you doing sir? Would be nice to hear from you every once in awhile but I know it’s tough being famous 😊
me and my wife love watching your channel get up almost everyday a cup of coffee some breakfast and we just binge watch the channel! thank you for sharing the knowledge in an entertaining way you have helped a great deal of people including me and my business so thank Allan Han for your entertaining education!
Micro green, humic, RGS, and multi-purpose plus with some hydretain usually does the trick with some flagship stress blend and water in the mornings. Keeps my cool season grass green all year in the transition zone :). Neighbor I never meet yesterday caught me outside and said I had the best looking yard in the subdivision. Ohhhhh and of course the cool season guide and yard master app!
I have not watch a LCN video in months.
This one reminds me why I love this channel.
Thanks Al 👊🏼
Thanks to "The Lawn Care Nut" for inspiration and education. My St. Augustine lawn is very old and in need of rejuvenation . I started following this channel a little more than a year ago and last year's lawn was improved over previous years . Doubling down with even more attention to fertilizers and more water, this year's lawn is the best it has looked in literally 20 years. For my situation weed & feed has been a big mistake and really holds back the grass. My old lawn is now thriving on lots of nitrogen, nutrients, and lots of water. This reminds me, I need to get out there are put out some bug killer to slow down the grubs. Thanks again.
Same here. I’ve completely transformed my St. Aug in 6 months. It went from a salad bag to I’m getting compliments. LCN’s teaching led the way for me to transform it.
couldn't have said it better myself.
Same here. I've had great success with stress blend as a granular starter on my yard then I started using the green county liquids recently. Now I am addidicted to liquids due to the amazing results. That being said what really sold me: I did the same stress blend about Feb 5. Same stuff on my mother in laws yard about a half mile from where I reside in NW Houston / Jersey Village and her yard only really perked up after a heavy dose of a blend of ar8 and RGS. When I would apply the stress blend on my yard it would be the best looking yard in a subdivision of 382 houses. But when I did hers it wouldn't do anything close to mine. She would laugh and say I gave her the bad bag of fert. Unofficial soil test: My sons and I run a scout flag program in our subdivision. We nail in 48 sticks of 1/4 inch rebar (24 inch long but only 12 in the soil) in 48 different lawns. On this memorial day flag set up her yard was much easier to nail the rebar in: amazing yard to yard how different the feel is. Some yards it takes only two hammer throws others it takes 10 and you can feel a mini earth quake because their soil is so compacted. I really attribute a lot of the success to AR8 at The mother-in-law’s house. I bet if I threw down granule now on our yard it would respond because the soil structure is so much better. It's a different way of soil testing but I assure you it's accurate😀
Another huge hack that I recently discovered. If you double down on the hydratain liquid on new sod installs you will be amazed how quick that new sod will take off. I'm amazed with that stuff.
Thanks for reminding people what this holiday is about. So many don't seem to care. Most important day of the year. And thanks for the tips.
Hey Al. Hope you have a great Memorial Day weekend.
Flagship and ironite 👍🏿🔥
That thumbnail is 🔥🔥 😁
Great vid from the 🐐
Almost at 500k!
As a Florida homeowner, I'm always amazed how you can lay in your lawn or walk in shoes. I have to mow in long socks and work boots and spray my entire body with OFF or else I'll be bitten all over. I've got lawn treatment and pest care and neither has an idea how to solve it. I have bahia grass and I think it's just a breeding ground for biting insects.
Thank you so much sir. I just bought a new home and planning to do a landscape makeover.
congrats on your new house!!!
Got my stress blend in on Thursday and put it down as soon as it came off the mail truck right before a rain storm. I know is slow release but the lawn is looking better even with the heat. I'll definitely be applying it the middle of the summer
oh boy your lawn is looking ah-goo-ah-d!!!! always informative Allyn thank you!!!!! Can't wait for that yardmastery double dark my friend!!!! 😊🤙🏾
I like using a starter fertilizer and a bag of ironite. Menards has a good starter fertilizer, 15-23-10
Threw down some Flagship a couple of weeks ago in West Palm & my St Augustine is thick,green & growing a couple of inches a week.
Hey, send some rain over to Pinellas County will you? I saw a gecko carrying a canteen the other day! 😎😎
Yeah agreed!! We need it !!
Hiya Al!..hope your day perfect and thanks for all brother!👏👏👍☮️👑🇺🇸
I just bought a bag of your Flagship. My lawn is really dark. My son's girlfriend told me yesterday that I have the best looking lawn she's ever seen.
that's great to hear!
Been digging the new music on vids. Thank you again for all you do, my yard looks like a resort👌🏽
awesome thanks bro!!
So this year I've been throwing worms and compost on my lawn. I also added a bag of azomite. I've never had FASTER growing grass then I have now. And it's so thick it's like carpet. I'm not a lawn pro but it's a centipede lawn that I seeded with fescue and rye in California. Even on these 100F days the grass is pushing hard.
Stress blend is my go to in the summer months! Really helps out my cool season lawn
Always great. Thank you and Semper Fi.
Always great information!!! Thank you sir!
Nice of you to show Sunday 😂 😂 😂
I live in Texas and do this with good results in st augustine grass... 1. I buy and Apply scotts red bag (winterguard) on October. I use half and leave the other half for next year. 2. On March I buy scotts green bag ( turf builder) then I mix the green bag with previous year red bag. I read that St. Augustine needs iron to become green but also needs bit acidic soil to get the iron. Scotts winterguard (red bag) composition is Nitrogen - 32% Potash - 10% Sulfur - 6% . Scotts turf builder (green bag) composition is NItrogen 32% (16% slow release) Potash 10% Iron 2%. Sulfur lower the soil Ph and helps the grass to get the iron better.
Boo Sunday boo. I'm all yahd mastery baby.
Just got done putting down some Stressblend this morning along with the tuna can challenge to button up my watering. A good lawn can be done in a season, a GREAT lawn takes years and you're never going to get it right the first time...and that's okay.
I would appreciate a video that really goes into fertilizer formulations, a question I always have is what happened to the rest of the 100% of the bag that isn't N, P, or K!
I’d like to know that too. Just filler???
@@gary4738 yes filler and carriers and unclaimed nutrients. There has to be other "stuff" that helps the nutrients get into the lawn consistently. The same goes for vitamins that you take. Add up everything on the list of nutrition facts and you'll see the rest is filler. Same with protein shakes and lots of other stuff.
Thx LCN 👍
Great video. I learned a lot from this.
I use Blue DEF on my lawn. Greened it right up. Since I use it in my truck I always have a few gallons lying around.
Mix the DEF with a little dawn, apply it with a hose end sprayer and then water it in. Lawn turns green in a few days
I'm am trying some of the Protene 6-0-0 with 14% iron from Pete this summer. The Yard Mastery Double Dark has worked well for me as well, and the Double Dark N-Ext combo has always been a quick way to get dark green.
I roll Milo on my yard several times a year, mixed in with some applications of Scotts Turfbuilder.
I am not to interested in green. I just roll on good fertilizer. I used to ammonium nitrate mixed with 5-10-15, mixed 3-1 ratio of fert to nitrate. My St. Augustine loved it, but I cannot find either, anymore, locally. The best I can come up with is 10-10-10. I am letting my yard grow out this spring and my St. Augustine is spreading like crazy. I am going to roll some more Milo and Turfbuilder next week. I have had lots of rain this spring and I limed well during the winter. I roll at a 5 setting with lime and Milo, 3 with Turfbuilder.
I just threw down some sunniland 7-0-20 on my turf type tall fescue/ Kentucky blue grass mixture. It's been hot and dry here in west Texas but have some rain storms passing through. My wife caught me sniffing my fingers. I looked at her and told her it smells like success!!
Great video thank you
Scott’s Green Max does wonders up here in Indiana 🔥
Yo Allen! Yeah, the month of May is notoriously known to be the "drought" month in Florida. Temps high but minimal (if any) rain. So long as we can make it to June and the summer rains, we (here in Florida) will be okay. Though, I have a couple of trouble spots still recovering from the Florida winter cold snaps. I'm in Palm Coast, USDA zone 9a/9b.
Watch his Chanel closely he lives in flordia also on the left coast I believe
Historically I have gotten only a couple of inches of rain in May, but I have gotten over 6" in the month of May. In Central Florida Orange County. In fact we got a lot more rain in Feb, March and April than we have in the past.
Thank you!!! SUBSCRIBED!!!! 👍
I’m surprised you didn’t mention double dark! I applied it about a week ago and now I’m dominating Memorial Day!!
Love your videos
Sprayed and Prayed yesterday.
Sunniland Iron Plus is a great green up product. Has manganese and maganese so great for palms too
Don’t forget to cut the lawn high. I have mine at 3.5 inches ego lawn mower setting 5 . My neighbor scalps their St Augustine every time. I guess that’s why their lawn is completely dead and mines nice and green with minimal watering . Oh mind you I’m in Houston Texas where rain has been minimal
You can buy a 2 1/2 gallon jug of 12-0-0 with 6% iron and also has Manganese and Magnesium in it for $30 and it will last someone with a 10k square foot lawn the entire year.
Where
I'm interested to know where as well. Thanks
Greene County fert is the company i believe he's talking about. Ive been using their products for a few years on my garden plants and in several planted aquariums with live fish with excellent results.
Any local ag co-op or landscape supply store will have that or something almost identical to that. The product I use is called Gravity L 12-0-0 made by Winfield
@@iamjacksundyingaddiction6595 many companies make a 12-0-0. We have Sunniland in FL, and LESCO among many others.
You always get the thumbs up wen the commercial is still playing don’t matter what you upload I love it. Greetings from Belgium 🇧🇪
Thank you the lawn care not for this important information 😊
Ok I've seen it all now.. LCN went full Tyrese on the thumbnail!
::cat calls & whistles::
😂😂😂
Passer by: look at the guy, he is laying on the yard talking to the grass...
Neighbor: ....grass whisperer!!
I think Allyn needs to come to Texas 😎 his map lumps brownsville in with Houston both are completely different climates. I'll be glad to be his driver. I have been to every Walmart in the state more than once for work and the big box / scotts mentality of fertilizers are hilarious. They could easily modify what they sell by soil type for their store instead of selling dumb ass stuff like Kentucky blue grass in Rio Grand valley. I don't know who is dumber the buyers, suppliers, or the customers. Another thing that Allyn mentions on many videos is cut height. I think a high cut on Saint Augustine is the most important part of keeping a yard super green.

Try this stuff in a tough part of your yard! It's truly amazing. I am a huge believer in AR8 and RGS on St Aug on clay compacted soil with a 1/2 inch of decent lawn soil on top. You will be amazed how crappy looking grass will look after using this.
I get the Scots Turf Builder Green Max and it works great!!
I've heard alot of good things about it from others too.
I've been LCN'ing heavily for about 5-6 years and I'm smoking the TrueGreen lawns across the street finally. To be fair, I started with about 50% weeds.
success!!!

You mentioned south Texas, unfortunately for us we are in drought and can't have any real watering schedule. Never understood why people invest in irrigation here when you can't use it. I just hand water in the morning and hope for the best but grass is already thinning out after a brief lush spring growth. Usually 100 degrees by noon here
That's because you have poor soil and weak roots. You're not watering long enough. I'm from Texas. We have black hard concrete dirt/clay, not soil. You will need to water about 45m-1h every other day until your lawn is lush than 15-20 mins. Water at 4am the earliest. Earliest the best because grass grows at night. We added red dirt for a top dressing in the front which boosted the time period.
Bermuda comes from Africa, it can survive Texas
Try humic acid
@@gopackgo69 was thinking also granular surfactant would help since we can only put limited water on lawn. If you have irrigation here you can only use it one day a week. In a couple more weeks we will probably not be allowed to water at all
@@llamacebu216 we can only water one day a week right now unless you water by hand. Ain't that committed, lol.. and yes our soil sucks here
@@mattfoster7923 Feed your soil. Aerate and get some good compost on it. I’m not a fan of chems and have committed to the long game with organics, but do what works for you. I just started in late Feb. and the lawn is already looking so much better than it did last year. Also in S Texas, but we’re allowed two days a week. I’ve been spot hand watering as well.
Here in Louisiana we only have 2 seasons summer and not winter I cut grass year round just gotta throw down the rye and it’s green year round
In Alberta, we have 8 months of winter and several months of bad ice. But , summer is the best day of the year
Had to watch twice just for the thumbnail.
Threw down some Flagship a few weeks ago. Lawn is looking great!
My guy!!
Houston yea
Hey I have a question I live in San Antonio and over here it’s been in the 100s lately and was wondering what products do you recommend I should put on my St Augustine grass so it looks like a thick dark green lawn and not dying from the heat and lack of water. The products I was looking at was flagship, Hydretain, Scott’s turf builder summer guard lawn food with insect control, and milorganite
You’re the goat buddy
I've been watching your channel for a few months now. We recently purchased our house and our lawn is over 15k square feet (I measured it after watching one of your videos) and it's all destroyed. It doesn't look like the previous owner did anything but mow. There are large patches of clover and dandelion and the soil is very dry and has a lot of uneven spots. I've tried fertilizing and I know watering is one of the most important steps but our well can't support watering the whole yard. I've recently purchased a few rain barrels to see if I can put some kind of watering schedule in place but now I'm trying to figure out how to deliver it.
So live in south Texas with st augustine been hot and n drought what recommendations would have on fertilizer to use. Grass has seed heads that are browning cuz so hot. Also seems grass was thrown on like red dirt so the dirt in so hard when dry any suggestions thanks
Forgive me if I've missed it, but have you produced any videos that highlight pet-friendly fertilizer products? Are there any tips to share for not killing "fido" off? I'd like to start rejuvenating my lawn (St Augustine), but I need to do so with my dog's health in mind. Thanks and keep up the great content!
Flagship has my grass a deep green but I have some spots that were POA that needs to filled in. Should I keep using Flagship for June and July. I have been thinking about going to the double dark the next couple of months, but maybe my Bermuda won't spread as well with it as it will Flagship?
You actually have to baby the St Augustine grass here in Florida. Everything has to be timed perfectly, water, fungicide, insecticide, fertilizer. It's a pain to maintain for real....
Hi Allen I have a couple questions. Is there an ideal temperature for applying the liquid iron and nitrogen and can they be sprayed together? Thanks for the awesome videos.
I have rotary sprinklers in the back yard. What is the best way to measure the amount of output coming from these? Tuna fish can seems to come up short. I put in the big nozzels so its not a fine mist!
Please help... In the next week or so I need to apply these 4 products to a TTTF/KBG lawn ... cool season.
Dominion 2L + Humic/Kelp + Hydretain + Propiconazole.
Which products can mix together so that I don't need to do separate 4 applications?
Yes, I know about taking small sample and mixing in a jar (jar test), but I would really like to know from those that have combined some of these products together and results.
Thank you.
Hey Allyn, I have Bermuda and I have these dark brown spots that won’t go away. 6 weeks ago I put Green Max and 2weeks ago Ironite. Should I just loosen it up and put soil and sand and let it fill in? Thanks
Thank you for the video, after I apply the liquid iron how long should I wait to apply the nitrogen ? Thanks
I just got some new sod put down and it’s Saint Augustine grass and have had it down for a little more then a week now any tips
Now the magic begins. Water... fertilizer before the the fert ban takes affect next week. Just sit back and watch it grow!
Wow, awesome channel!
subbed.
just ordered the iron and nitrogen on here,
Can I apply them one after right after each other?
Great Video! I live PNW ( WA State) and my lawn for the first time in years is not growing and browning a bit due to the extended unusual heat. I have heard you do not want to feed a stressed lawn, and I believe Nitrogen promotes growth. Should try Iron and Potassium?
My St.Augustine grass is dried out for some reason. I need help getting my grass back green help!!!
Thanks for the video! What’s your thoughts on using Lime on your grass? Could you explain the differences between Lime and Iron please? Thanks again and keep up the great classes professor.
Get a soil test. If your soil PH is too acidic, and you need to “raise your PH” then put down Lime. Lime will make your soil more Alkaline. If the soil in your area is clay, then Lime will be unnecessary as clay is typically very Alkaline (higher PH). To “lower your PH” you should put down things like Sulphur and Iron to lower the PH level. Again, get a soil test and go from there.
Hey lcn I had an odd question about st augustine and I thought I would ask you. If the grass grows vegetatively or by spreading thru runners or stolons theoretically one small sprig or mother plant should cover an entire lawn eventually although highly impractical, right? And I also wonder what is the biggest single st augustine plant in the world or if there's like a world record or something? Just a thought but I thought I would ask the expert thanx man stay green

LCN- I am a huge follower and believer in your craft. I don't think I will ever be on your level, but I have a question. I am all about supporting you and your company, Yard Mastery. I bought Prodiamine from your company already in the small batch. Thank you for offering that product in a smaller batch. It should last me for seasons to come. I bought Milorganite for late April, because of you. I am now ready to start fertilizing with your stuff from Yard Mastery. I have St. Augustine grass and I live in Virginia Beach, VA. I am going to purchase either Freedom or Flagship for the 4th of July weekend. Which would you recommend? We are now seeing low to high 90's. I do not want to burn up my lawn and half of the front is new plugs I planted in Early April. I want to push those Stolens like you talk about in your videos.
Looks like I can’t get Flagship here in Alaska, is there a suitable alternative you recommend? Thx
Green charge and microgreene. The GOAT combo if you’re running liquids only
Nice!
This is step-by-step video and audio training I made specifically for DIYers www.yardcarebootcamp.com/ (highly recommend 😁)
hi,
i just laid about 900 sq feet of st augustine grass, the 10th of june was a month, im from so cal, its doing good but some parts are kind of dry, not 100% dry but you can tell, any advices, hope you can help me with this, its been about 82° last 4 days.
Last week I had 3 pallets of st agustine lay down, how can I make sure it turns out green and amazing? I’m Arlington Texas. I being watering twice daily.
Watering is the number 1 thing right now and then in about a week hit it with this: thelawncarenut.com/collections/granular-fertilizer/products/12-12-12-starter-fertilizer-with-3-iron-and-bio-nite%E2%84%A2#
Nice cap …💙⚾️🇺🇸💪🏽
Throw a pump in the pond and youll have water for days. Cheers LCN
I'm giving the following a go this season my first app Yardmastery 12-12-12 with 3% iron then 30 days later double dark 16-0-0 with 6% iron. Rinse and repeat a second time the grass will have more P and K by time August our hottest month. Then September and October will be super feeding with Milo which I have 4 bags left and I might have some scotts turfbuilder I will be putting to bed with a full stomach like last year. We were the first to mow first to green up before May 2nd. IM A FIRM BELIEVER IN "MORE NOW MAY" not that other crap those climate change cultists believe in.
Hey Allyn, I'm going to be spraying a tank mix of Cleary's and Demand CS - any issue with adding Greenephite to the mix? Also, are you no longer selling Greenephite?
I have ProVista and I am south of North Port, FL can I throw down flagship in June, July, Aug and Sept every 30-45 days?
Al, I need help. Im in northern Utah and we are having a big issue with water. I have bought Buffalo grass to sew in and take over my KBG/PRG 3 year old sod. Thing is, there isnt much or anyone (other that the lawn freako) that talks about this turf. Can you help out or do I just throw er down and hope for the best?
I’m not a noob but liquid iron has led to me turning my lawn greyish black a couple times now. I stick with granular now. There’s a product I like called peak iron.
Sounds like your are over applying.
@@gpoman9988 yup. I know. Did it twice. Haha. That was with a pump sprayer. Now I have a typhoon
@00:30 why does the sidewalk end at your property line?
how do you feel about feeding your soil and not your plants.. organic. much love dude
Al,
Could you please do a video for those on the the summer fertilizer ban and which products are best to apply that don’t have N or P?
I'm sending out a free guide tomorrow through my Florida email list thelawncarenut.com/pages/florida-lcn-newsletter-sign-up
Got it! Very well put together 👍🏻
For those of us with kids and dogs, what are we supposed to use? It seems like all of the stuff that actually works is not good for them to be around/on. Most of it says just stay off for 24-48 hours but I don’t believe it becomes safe that quickly. Thoughts?
Chill Allen my wife is on this app 11:20
I am in Illinois, and half my yard is Zoysia and it still looks dormant, any ideas on treating warm season grass in a cool season area
it's will start to green up with those high temps you got today. It's just slow up that far north but come summer it will be green while everyone else's dries out and goes dormant.
