You are truly a teacher at heart my friend. You've never tried to sell me a thing or ask me for a dime, yet you still share your knowledge and experience with whoever is willing to listen. Stay true to yourself brother, you're a rose among thorns. By the way, I'm thinking I'm buying me a hoodie real soon. But not because you asked me too.
Thank you very much. I really appreciate this! Means a lot. That has been the goal of Budget Lawns since day one. For almost five years now, we've stuck true to our roots and won't change. If you get a hoodie, thank you. If not, I'll still appreciate you just the same!
🙏 Thank you. I just got notified as well. I've got the same color hoodie in a large too. Super comfy! Hope ya like it. Appreciate ya man. Have a great rest of the weekend and an awesome week.
Great videos. Your channel reminds me of going to AA meetings for lawns. I go to other yt channels and they say you need this and that super juice. Then come here and reminded to take it easy and don’t need all those lawn products. Thanks for saving me money. That doc almost got me a few times.
Love the simple - matter of fact sharing of information. I utilized the guidance last year and benefited from the smart schedule while reducing costs. Look forward to 2nd season of Bermuda in greater Tulsa OK area. Thank you!
I edged and scalped my lawn on 2-7-24. Last year it was a full month later. I`ve already gotten runners up to 4" where I edged my sidewalk and greening up nicely with no fertilizer at all in just 3 weeks. Gonna be a crazy long summer.
I’m in northern Illinois. It’s 70° today. We’re supposed to be below freezing and covered in snow. I might start mowing in a couple weeks like I did last year. Also I made time for your video today! 😂
LOL appreciate you. That's some crazy weather. Not making a lot of sense out there right now. Gonna be close to 80 here today. I'm not ready for this haha. Thanks so much for watching and commenting.
Darn good video. I just laid down my preemergent and had been noticing barnyard grass already growing strong around the edges of my lawn near the driveway, house, sidewalk. Makes sense now. Next year I'm going out earlier.
Who would have thought that a simple thing like growing grass can be complicated and a university degree is needed…then again grass isn’t simple. For us fanatics we all strive for that elusive lush green lawn.😜😉🇦🇺👍👊
Great advice. I'm in N Texas and everyone is posting that they are scalping, some several weeks ago. I agree with you and think it's too early. I'm waiting till after our avg last frost/freeze which is March 13th. My bermuda is just starting to show that green haze. It's almost go time here, almost. Getting the pre-em down at the perfect time is a game of chess. So far, looks like I did good getting mine down 1/31/24. Normally, I don't do it until late Feb/early March, but we had an early warm up!
Appreciate that. Glad this helps. This unusually warm weather is making it super tough. If we were having seasonal weather, I'm not used to really starting anything in the lawn until late March, early April. Thanks so much for watching.
Always enjoy your take on regular lawn care. Not the hyper, need every liquid juice that is available type care. I did look for the Spectracide product you like but it doesn’t seem to be available at the big box stores here in the Dallas metro right now. Went with Halts this year at the beginning of Feb. The water company had to fix a main along the back fence in November so I have some work cut out for me this spring.
Thank you. Appreciate ya sharing that. I've heard that before from folks in Texas. Perhaps there's a law there banning its ingredients. The utility companies are always up to something. At least you've got a project to work on lol. Thanks for watching.
Thanks buddy. Really happy with how it turned out. Looking forward to planting this season. Hope to make some good progress on that front. Hope you're doing well, my friend. Thanks for watching.
I put my "2nd coat" of Spectracide Weed Stop down today. It'll rain in 2 days. Pretty sure I'm too late, as weeds are already emerging and yes, around the edges .... my front lawn is a kind of elevated lawn, edged by BRICK on 3 sides. Oh well. I can't get too upset about this; it was a wreck last Spring. I had done nothing at all until April and it was a total mess with weeds. Regular somewhat higher mowing helped make it respectable. But I could never be 100% sure what grass I had everywhere, especially since some weeds have seed heads that mimic grass in appearence. I studied pictures, I looked at the lawn up close. The Bermuda, like my subscription to this channel, was easy. But the rest? This Winter I learned just how much fescue or KY bluegrass I have, which is quite a lot ... if I could get rid of it all and just go with bermuda I feel I could then handle it better. I do not like that Spectracide Weed Stop is now $18 or $19 here in TN, but I may just put that crap down all year and see what happens ... the weeds were astonishing last year.
Thanks for watching and sharing your experiences. Keep chipping away at things a little at a time and it’ll be awesome before ya know it. The process is the fun part not the end result. 👍👊
My local extension recommends March 20 for the pre em app. So I threw down Feb 28, I’m trying a split app for the first time ever this year hopefully I’m doing it right 😂
those crabgrass photos that are around 2:00 is nightmare fuel. Also, great subject and something I never really thought about. I usually tend to notice crabgrass only pops up on the edges of my sidewalks or by the curb, doesn't help im surrounded by sidewalks either. I guess something for me to take into consideration come next pre-m app.
Great video! Very helpful! Quick question, if my average soil temperatures are above, should I still place pre em down or is it too late and i should just skip it?
Thank you. Glad it helps. I would still go ahead and apply. You might miss some weeds but can still prevent any others still left to come. Appreciate ya watching.
Do you think it's too late to scalp my zoysia? Soil temps are in the low 60s. Highs are in the low 70s and lows are in the low 40s. I'd say about 80% of my grass is still dormant a little bit of green coming through
I still haven't scalped my bermuda. We've had a frost in the forecast today and tomorrow. Once your usual last frost or freeze date has passed, you're good to scalp. It's really never too late. I might do mine this weekend as the long range forecast doesn't have any freezing temps. However, the wind is supposed to be brutal so that may keep me from doing it. Hope this helps. Thanks for watching.
Great advice! Tons of people full of bat SH#T out there right now posting videos . Pushing products that will do nothing to a dormant lawn! Hope people watch this instead! 👊
Thanks brother! You ain’t kiddin. It has gotten ridiculous. Amazing how people fall for it. Guess that’s why the videos are made. Appreciate ya as always man.
Great question. I've never worried about watering until my bermuda is actively growing. Maybe not the best advice, but I just let it ride this time of year, because rain is bound to come in spring. Plus, I just wanna save water and money. Hope this helps. Thanks for watching.
