Thank you for more sound advice. I credit you, along with a few others, for how great my lawn is doing this year. Keep feeding my knowledge growth. Appreciate you!
That's awesome man. Thank you for sharing that. So glad I have been able to help. Makes this all worth doing! Keep up the great work in the lawn. We'll keep it up together 👊. Appreciate ya very much!
The most budget friendly thing I see about your backyard is NO pool. A pool is the biggest time and money pit I have ever come across. Nice job on the video. As always, good timing. I was just thinking about what to do if I end up with fungus from all this rain.
Hard to argue with that. Not in my budget for sure haha. Glad this one timed out right again. Hope ya don’t end up with any. Appreciate ya watching and commenting as always. Thanks so much.
Praise to the lawn Gods, it hasn’t rained here since Thursday!! Drying up and have got a couple good mows in. Yard is popping and in great shape considering
Amen. Yes sir. Right there with ya. Let’s hope we get more of this. Thanks buddy.
We finally got a good rain and more all day tomorrow. I have been apply fungus control early at preventative rates both Azoxy and Propiconazole. I have a feeling I will still get it. Jersey is a very humid and hot sticky state June - Aug.. Fingers crossed that I will stay ahead of it this year. Your Bermuda has really greened up a lot.
Awesome. Bet that feels good. Sounds like you’re prepped and ready. Nice work. Appreciate ya as always buddy. Hope ya have a great weekend 👊.
Hoping this weather gets better for everyone!!!
Thanks buddy. Hope the same for you. I imagine you’ve been getting wet a lot lately as well. Appreciate ya bro!
Unfortunately folks often associate rain with fungs. While it's a contributing factor it's not the main cause. Humidity is the main cause. You can get fungus as a result of high humidity and not have any rain or over watering. However, I agree with ya Travis, let it ride and just use good cultural practices. 👍🏼
You are very right sir. Humidity, morning dew and dry conditions are all just as bad. Felt like having that in there might be too much of an overload and confusing for some folks, especially since rain has been my problem as of late. Appreciate ya adding that to the conversation. Thanks so much as always bud!
@@BudgetLawns I figured that might have been the case. I know you try to keep things as simple as possible. I'm curious though, what was that dark brown fungus in piles around your backyard? 🤔😂🤣😂🤣💩💩
😂😂😂 that’s another video for the people who worry themselves to death about their dogs peeing and crapping in the lawn lol. I’m not one of those to rush out and pick it up right away. Of course, when I’m mowing full steam ahead it gets picked up every couple days. But with all the rain, eh, no big deal.
@@BudgetLawns I'm the same way. Once or twice a week.. good enough
For sure. 👊
Enjoyed it. Really it was good. Ok, ok I smiled a few times. What do want your face on a tv in a bar with people cheering? Me too. 👍
😂 thanks so much man. Always appreciate ya watching and commenting. Maybe one day I’ll get on the big screen. 😂 but really the little one is good enough for me 👊.
Dropped my preventative down a few weeks ago. I'm hoping the lower cut will also help with no fungus this year.
Right on. Let’s hope so. Appreciate ya man!
If the humidity and temperature added together exceed 150 then it's prime fungus growing time. Fungicides re illegal in Canada so I just tried baking soda with vegetable oil on my golf green (a mix of Poa Supina and a few bentgrass species) and it did an amazing job killing my dollar spot! The spots I sprayed are green AF in just 3 days!!
👍👍 thanks for watching and sharing!
Great info on fungicides! Had about an inch of rain last week.. much needed but still not quite enough 😂
Thanks buddy. Hope ya get some more. 👊🌨
Dealing with the same. Rain for weeks. Waiting for some dry weather. It’s always fun
What doesn’t kill us only makes us stronger. Lol. Trying to find the silver lining. We’ll get there 👊. Appreciate you!
Interesting approach to let it dry out big time. I just got my liquid fungicides for my KBG but didn't get it down before the monsoon in the north east. 3-4" and still raining so I need to wait. I usually start my fungus control in June anyway.
It’s my budget approach for sure haha. Sounds like you’ve got a solid plan. 👍 thanks buddy.
The bottom line is its all up to Mother Nature. I have been through the cycles of treating and not treating and even went with the alternating applications of both liquid and granular which have both ingredients and Mother Nature still had the last laugh. That is why she gave us different times of the year for both warm and cool seasons grass to renovate our lawns lol. Great video as always sir.
Indeed my friend. You are so very right. There’s only so much we can do. The rest is up to Mother Nature. That’s why I really focus on cultural practices. If I at least do those right I can’t feel bad if something goes wrong. And you nailed it, there’s always a chance to fix things haha. Thank you very much buddy. Appreciate ya.
Mother Nature???? You believe in Mother Nature when it comes to your Weather? Wholly shameful disgraceful shit man OPEN YOUR EYES and EARS WIDE Buddy!! The DS government has been MANIPULATING Your WEATHER for EVER!!! It’s ALL OVER the internet all the Weather Destruction and Damage your government agencies have been doing to you and your environment for YEARS!!! Humanity lost homes because of your DS Weather Manipulating DISGRACEFUL DICTATORS!!! Omg WAKE UP!!
Fungus treatment is cheaper than city water
My treatment is free other than time and labor. Appreciate ya.
EXCELLENT video! Where are you located? What zone?
Thank you. I’m in north Arkansas in the transition zone.
Good strategy 👍🏻 I like the approach to the curative , congratulations on coming into 7K man 💯💯💯💯
Thanks buddy! I like it too. Keeps it on that budget 😂 Appreciate that bro. We're almost there. Should hit it sometime this morning. Thanks for being part of it!
@@BudgetLawns 💯💯💯💯💯👍🏻👍🏻
Great Information
Fungus started showing up after week of rain. I used my push reel mower to cut the tips of grass where the fungus spread. Will cutting the grass cause it to spread. I could not use my rotary mower because it is low, with the bagger and subject to scalping.
Thank you for all the tips you provided.
RGC
Thank you. My research through my local agriculture extension office says cutting the grass with fungus and not bagging clippings will not increase the spread of the fungus. I never bag fungus and never see it get worse. Hope this helps. Appreciate ya watching and commenting. Have a great weekend.
@@BudgetLawns Thank you.
Praying all is well with you doc! Hang in there…
All is good bro. Appreciate ya. Hope you’re doing well!
@@BudgetLawns I’m doing great, preciate you asking… 👍
🌞You know I like to have some cheese with my whine because we got less than 2" the whole month of May. 😂 Great video!! 👍
Hahaha. Do your thing man. I whine about the rain so we’re all good. Appreciate ya buddy!
I love ❤️ this channel ✊🏾
Thank you BYD. Love yours too!!!
I have my fungus prevention granule product ready to go! but today early in the morning at 7am (taking advantage of the wet due) I dropped my WEED STOP spectrazide & you better believe i re-watched your video on that to get any extra tips. next i’ll drop the fongus prevention ( i don’t have any fungus, but just dropping it for prevention ) THEN... i’ll drop my yard mastery FLAGSHIP fertilizer to get things rocking & rolling!!!
Got that plan rockin man. Great job. Appreciate ya watching and commenting as always 👊.
With allllllll that rain, the fungus should just wash right off! Lol
Haha, we're just about to that point. Wouldn't that be nice. Thanks man!
My St.Aug would be suffering if I didn’t live on a hill lol The rain has been never ending
Yeah I bet that hill helps a bunch. Wish it’d dry out for ya. Thanks as always bro. Appreciate ya.
Hope all is well. ......
Miss the content 👊🏼👍🏼
Thank you. Appreciate that. All is good. Hope the same for you. Just super busy with work, family and the new house. Spending most of my free time with the kids so that’s a lot of fun. I’ll try to get something up soon. Sorry about the lack of vids. Thanks again.
🤘🏼
It’s been awful where we are. We have had rain almost every other day for a month and a half ! Fungus everywhere, the grass just doesn’t have a chance to dry out and humid all the time. Terrible. Had great grass and but it’s down the tubes now.
As always- good stuff.👍🏻
Thank you 😊!!
Humid and cloudy recipe for disaster. i am so mad about the fungus i cant tell if the treatment is working
On the St Augustine here in south Florida we run preventative. It’s a cesspool of disease.
Sense I’m running a bag out I use Preventative on the Bermuda. 👊🏼👍🏼 Scott’s and Bio Advance.
It ain’t cheap that’s for sure ☹️
Yup. You folks are the ones I was thinking of. Different ballgame for y’all with all that Florida humidity. Sounds like you got a good plan in place to be ahead of the game. That’s awesome. Thanks so much as always. Appreciate ya.
I have been battling fungus forever and I just cannot win the battle. I'm still learning a little each year. hopefully I wi'll get it under control. I am not giving up just yet but sometimes I just want to throw my hands in the air and say screw it and let it go. . but I really believe it has something to do with running water. where I get a lot of runoff is where I've got it the worse. Been getting up early in the mornings and going out there and sprinkling disease x by Scott's all over these spider webs in the dew. I just went through a whole gallon of propiconazole and I really don't want to buy anymore again cuz it's definitely not working for me. I have seriously thought about spraying alcohol that's how desperate I am hehe. My grandma believed in apple cider vinegar, I might even spray some of that on there rofl.
Sometimes it just seems like nothing works huh. Sorry you’re battling with that. I hope something finally does the trick for ya. Don’t let it stress ya out too much tho. It’s just grass. Appreciate ya watching and commenting as always. Keep up the good fight. Thank you!
I’ve got an issue I’m trying to solve where I’ve got melting out and disease in areas where my grass isn’t getting much water due to my bad water coverage.
Try to get better coverage and help it recover. Or use a fungicide. Thanks for watching.
How are things going? Haven't sen you in a while.
Hey buddy. Things are good. Thanks for checking in. Just been super busy with the new house, family, and work. Lots of exciting things going on in life right now, so something had to take a back seat. Hardcore lawn care and YT was it for a bit. When the new lawn gets cranking, I'm going to try and make a comeback. Until then, spending every last second of spare time with the kiddos and loving every minute of it. They're at a fun age right now. Grass will always be there. Can't get these times back. Hope you're doing well and having a great summer. Thanks again bro!
How long do you let it dry for
A few days or so. Thanks for watching.
I had fungus early may- I pulled back watering dried the hell out of my lawn, pumped fast acting nitrogen it grew like crazy, mowed = Boom no more fungus
Boom 👊 that’s what I’m talking about. I like your style. 👍 well done. Appreciate ya!
@@BudgetLawns likewise thx bro
Where’d you go? Missing your content!
Hey man. Sorry about my absence. Lots going on in life right now. Hope to make a return soon. Appreciate ya checking in. 👊
Where are ya?!
In hiding haha. Naw, just reprioritized a bit. Lots going on building a new house and with work. So outside of those I've been spending every last second with my family and lovin' it. Something had to go and hardcore lawn care and UA-cam has been it for a bit. I'll prolly try to get some vids going again when the new lawn goes in. Hope you're doing well man! Thanks for checking in!
@@BudgetLawns I can understand that. I got my alert set. Will be lookn for something down the road. Enjoy the family!
Thanks brother!
Man I got major and I mean major black and some green mold in my yard, all slimy ass a lotioned foot. How do I get rid of that, I’ve tried the Anderson product, baking soda and soap along with the blue hose spray stuff , I’m about of ideas
I tried to post a pic but it won’t let me
Does it get any sun?
Mushrooms in your lawn a bad thing?
No. They’re a sign of good fertile soil. Now I guess they could be bad if they’re totally covering the lawn as an infestation merely as nuisance. But overall they are nothing to worry about. Thanks for the question. Appreciate ya watching.
Thanks I just cut a few off my lawn
👍 nothing to worry about.
Too much rain and watering
Video starts at 2:45 min
Thanks for watching.
Where the hell you been man?
I’m around. Just swamped with life. I’ll try to get back with something soon. Appreciate ya checking in. Hope you’re well.
Ok good I had hoped you didn't get flooded out or something lol
My lawn recovered well after that late freeze then that rain fall we got (a foot in 7 days) but now looks good. Have a little crabgrass so my preemergant application worked better this year than in the past. Nothing that a msma application won't delete lol
👍👍
He dude, I’m in Jonesboro arkansas and have just purchased a new home with new Bermuda sod. I sent you a message on Instagram, id like some tips when you get the chance.
👍👍
Lol this is almost enough to convince some to get a fake lawn.
My brother got one for a kids’ play area where grass wouldn’t grow. It’s awesome.
@BudgetLawns expensive though isn't it?
It’s not a large space so it wasn’t too bad.
I'm nervous that we haven't heard from you in 3 weeks. Lawn doing okay? Your front yard got hit hard with the crazy weather. Hopefully within another month your lawn will be back in business.
Hey man. Thanks for checking in. Everything’s good. Back yard is in great shape. Front is getting there. Life has just been crazy with one thing or another plus the new house is really moving along in construction now. Just trying to manage it, work and family. Something had to be put on the back burner and UA-cam was it. Sorry about that. Hopefully I’ll get something up soon. Appreciate ya.
