    I think your neighbors on the KBG test plot side need a few more dandelions in their yard, would really pull the look together.

    i’ve always thought the timemasters were really neat just pricy i’m 14 and cut many lawns throughout the season and plan on expanding soon ive been looking into one though haha it would be so handy to have. lawn care is so fun and i’m lucky my parents have let me take over out yard and let me do others.

    We used to have to starve Poa Varities for water during the hot summer to diminish the stands. Another thing we would do was whenever we went from one field of sod to another was to brush the mowers clean to prevent contamination from one field to another. Cheers Ryan.

    Would definitely like to see a video on how you handle the brown grass layer underneath that you spoke of briefly. I originally thought I had a thatch issue, but after I dug I believe it is more along the lines of that what you discussed here in the beginning. Look forward to hearing more!

  • @JonBecker81
    @JonBecker81 4 роки тому

    I used Scott’s triple action at the exact wrong time and the Poa loved it took over EVERYTHING. It actually looked pretty good in March (I live in the south). My neighbors were telling me how great my lawn looked. I told them just you wait until the temperature starts getting hotter. Needless to say I’ll be reseeding my whole front yard pretty soon and making sure I use some pre-emergent this year.

  • @ochresprings
    @ochresprings 4 роки тому

    We are seeing the same issues here regarding growth and green-up here in MN. It has been, and is forecast to remain, dry. I have already started irrigation as well, but I think because everything melted and stayed dry, it is an uphill climb. As a result, I am seeing more spring weeds in weak areas than in previous years. Hopefully more water and fert will push the growth back to normal!

    • @jasonbaker2126
      @jasonbaker2126 4 роки тому

  • @step2191
    @step2191 4 роки тому

    Hey Ryan, love your videos, but I have a small recommendation for you. In a few shots there's stuff laying against the side of your house, wood pallets, ect. I would recommend that your foundation to the siding be clear and free of debri the reason is termites can use the cover to their advantage and tube up and into your house because they are covered by the elements. It doesn't take long for them to make tunnel tubes. I use to be an exterminator (pest control tech) and I always, if anything, told homeowners to never put stuff up against their houses foundation/siding line. This includes trash, debri, MULCH is a no no...against siding....its okay if you leave 6" below the siding with mulch as long as you can periodically inspect for termites. Just a thought, love your channel man, stay true and enjoy that mow!

    • @step2191
      @step2191 4 роки тому

      on second thought that's your neighbors house. I do apologize! They are inviting termites right in stacking things against their foundation like that @ 12:43.

  • @edkaempf906
    @edkaempf906 4 роки тому +7

    I feel for Ryan, who, as a homeowner, really knows how to take care of his yard. His neighbor seems to use his driveway and side of garage as a place to store all manner of "stuff". But hey, the neighbor may be a nice family, so what do I know.

  • @sabriath
    @sabriath 4 роки тому +1

    If only you could get your neighbors to do the same treatments on the lawn to get rid of all those weeds.....holy shit. I just did a 3-in-1 to my yard just to test it out last week, seemed to work so far.
    I have also started a new thing with mowing, where I skip every other lane, and 2 days later do them. It has this perpetual look of rows without using a roller, and I do a lot less work in one go because I'm only mowing half the lawn at a time (which is much better on my back). It's actually pretty cool looking, in my opinion.

  • @grass-patch
    @grass-patch 4 роки тому

    We've had a lot of rainfall here in VA, where I'll sneak a quick mow between weather patterns. Enjoyed the sights and sounds of Spring segment.

    I started watching your video's this past December. I learned alot about what not to do to my lawn. My lawn over the past few years has looked less than desirable, primarily because of of my kids and the neighborhood kids playing on it everyday. I been following your recommendations and care guide, and this spring my yard already looks a 100% better. Thanks

  • @LlyleHunter
    @LlyleHunter 4 роки тому

    Of course you need your Timemaster if just for cleaning up what you’re about to do with your scarifier. I mow with a manual reel mower myself every two or three days but once a month I rake my lawn entire to clean out all of the dead grass for the same reason that you do and after I vacuum it up with my Toro Recycler. Aside from your yard and grass area being much larger than mine the deep down vacuuming ability of the Timemaster in comparison to everything else is akin to comparing the deep down cleaning abilities of a Kirby vacuum to a cordless stickvac. You’d regret selling your Timemaster.

  • @benkneisley3001

    Ryan, do you have any videos or advice on grub control? I have a issue with a small spot in a very small yard that is problematic, but to go out and buy a $25 bag of product that covers 5,000 sq/ft to get rid of them in a yard that is about 150 sq/ft is rather cost ineffective. Beyond that, if I have to part with the money, I will, but what is the best product that will give me the best result?

Not sure I want to spend the $$$ on a new tractor, so a 30-inch deck would be the next best thing. How has your Timemaster worked out for you? Would you recommend it? Any advice for a novice lawn care guy?

    My question is two parts. I would liek to see how you are dealing with you current issue at the (3:15) minute mark, and secondly your thoughts on using the Scotts Grub B gon.

Ive been watching your lawn care and renovation and im a really big fun of yours. its my first time having a back yard and doing lawn care sir. I have most of the tools i needed for the lawn except for the peat moss spreader that i seen in your overseeding from last year. Im really struggling so much right now and im so amazed with that peatmoss spreader. When i look at the amazon to try ordering it im so surprise with how much it cost. I know this is not proper to ask for this help from you sir but im really praying and hoping that u can help me get one for me. I just cant afford to have one and im hoping that you could help me sir. Thank you and have a bless day.🙏

    My color isn't consistent either it warms up and gets darker green then it gets cold again I'm hoping I killed off all the creeping wild bent grass I didn't do a monostand 2 of the 3 midnight and blue note take awhile to come out of dormancy. We need to have a minimum of 60 at night for the grass to take off and we haven't had that yet. If the Milo doesn't make it super dark I will be hitting it with iron and I hope to buy some of your liquids to baby the front which is only about 1500 to 2000 square feet roughly . The front is fed well it gets 1 bag of Milo each time I feed it

    I just started a reno in my super bare backyard where my dogs run around, between them wanting to dig and crappy Temps we got, I'm not too optimistic on it, my dogs wanna kill the sprinkler every time I go to water the grass :(
