May Richard RIP! Enjoyed the information he provided in this video!
He died
Who is Richard? This man name is Johnathan.
Very nice man, great information, and knowledge.
I do get my exercise taking care of my lawn. When other people in my neighborhood walk their dogs they come home with a bag of dog poop. When I mow my lawn I have a fantastic looking lawn. To each his own. It seems that everyone on UA-cam has a big fixation on Crab grass. I don't have any problem with crab grass. I also don't have a problem with dandelions. Everyone in my family were farmers or grew up on the farm. We all know about proper PH, healthy soil etc. That helps. He is correct that a lush thick lawn is the best weed prevention. Because my lawn is so lush and thick, what few weeds if any I simply remove by hand as I mow or when I take my evening walk around the yard after supper. Every year I get a soil test, one of the good ones that also test for micro nutrients as well as NPK and pH. I adjust as needed. My ace in the hole that puts my lawn over the top is the use of humate. I started using a product called Black gypsum by Anderson's around the yard at the curb where the road salt gets on the lawn during winter snow plowing. Wow what a great product. I now use it on the entire lawn in the spring. I also apply a liquid Humic, folvic acid in mid summer. The dirt seems healthier and the lawn is absolutely out of this world. I also apply at times chelated liquid iron for an extra green pop on my Kentucky blue grass lawn. The neighborhood golfers tell me that there isn't a course as nice as my lawn. Even the local lawn care outfit ask me for advice and ask if they can park their trucks in front of my house to give the impression that are doing my lawn.
Fiddleguy....I'd love to see a picture of your lawn. Sounds like it's beautiful!! I'm new at working with lawn care. I wasn't pleased with my lawn people so I decided to read and learn about lawn and soil care so I'm doing it myself. We never get to old to learn. It's educationally and good exercise for me.
I've taken notes from what you posted to see what all your using and to see if I could help my lawn with what you are using.
I laughed what you said about them parking their equipment in front of your house!!😊 That says alot about your lawn. Keep up the good work!!
Great learning video!
This guy is Awesome 👏 I live in Maryland please let me know when you are coming to Maryland
He passed away in December 2019
This was a great presentation I just watched! Good information and I took some notes.
I took a ton of notes and will not listen to any more you tubers with varying opinions s
Great info!
Im here 9 years late trying to fix my lawn and wanted to know if there is a new 4 way weed spray that contains Carfentrazone?
Tenacity has done wonders on my stiltgrass. Also works great as a pre-emergent.
This is not good information, Tenacity does wonders on crabgrass, which looks a lot like stilt grass. Aclaim is what you should use for stilt grass, tenacity will only discolor it.
Since this video in 2014 there has been a massive increase in demand for lawn care content resulting in new UA-cam channels about Lawn Care and its related topics. To the point we now have UA-cam influencers getting rich by making videos abiut products they are testing. Of course the influencers make a profit when viewers order using the affiliate links and the influencers often get a case of whatever new product they are testing. This financial bias has resulted in testing videos that are basically commercials for the product often without a single negative comment.
Today it seems like anyone can create a UA-cam channel with a focus on lawn care and start receiving gifts in the mail from fertilizer companies weed killer companies, lawn mower companies, all based.on greed instead of quality content. Even hats shirts hoses sprayers, sprinklers, stickers.
The whole thing has gotten really really greed based and is falling away from legitimate education and lawn care science. Instead focussed on selling products to people that they don't need, videos creating the impression that you have to buy this product to have a beautifull lawn.
I wish more videos were like this speaker...He sounds so much more authentic than the UA-cam influencers of today.
It's the same way with car detailers. They all compare the newest products to some other product. There are only 2 that I watch and I prefer one over the other.
All very true. But on the positive side, the people you mention are also trying to advance lawn care methods. But yes they become biased when they sell the products.
I wish I could see the slides better , and just voice over when reading them
Very educational
Rich Imlay is a GOD!
Relix He truly is a brilliant mind and a genuinely helpful person. Unfortunately he is on a permanent medical leave I was told 😕 I wish he wasn’t because there’s no one like him and I could seriously use some advice this year. I hope he is ok though
@@Mr1fingersalute sorry he passed 5 months ago. I'm his son. I can't do too much to help, but maybe I could point you in the right direction.
@@chrisimlay3417 May your father rest in peace. I've watched 2 videos on your dad and he was an expert. I took notes on this presentation while watching it just now even though the presentation was 6 years ago. To do a presentation like this helping people or walk a lawn with an individual home owner is a great deed. I see why UA-cam commenters get a bad reputation. Maybe if they spent more time outside making their lawn better than it was last season they'd release that negative energy that way!
The only God is YHWH and if you die without him youre headed for hell
@@revelation2935 who are you?
I have a few qustions.
1) I live in NYS state and heard from our ex lawn care program that you are only allowed to put crabgrass control until mid-may how would that be for me than? Why isnt there a just crab grass preventer without feed?
2) We have a park like lot with weird hours for sun depending on the year when the trees are with/without leaves Would it be better to use Dense shade mix grass seed or will it burn in parts that get full sun or afternoon sun? Our property gets South facing sun. but again we have a lot of trees.
I have learned a lot from this video. thank you
Great video!
I have that Japanese weed on my 2 ace lawn and it’s taking over! Wish I knew of a way to get rid of it.
About to use my tractor with a box blade and scrap the whole yard.
Stiltgrass? Last I looked there’s a weed killer for it but lot of $. May be worth it! Easy to pull up.
Use acclaim it’s the only thing that works
Seed, Fertilizer, pre-emerge thoughts for those of us in Piedmont area ((Charlotte, Gastonia, Concord) of North Carolina?
Check out the gci turf channel on UA-cam. He’s a lawn pro who’s in North Carolina. Experiments with kbg, PRG, tttf.
@@krehbein thank you for sharing sir. i will most certainly give him a follow.
Wats the point of putting pre-emergent down in May after the crabgrass has germinated?
#1 it keeps the crabgrass that HASN'T germinated yet, which is great. #2, there are weeds that germinate in the fall and you see them in the early spring. A pre emergent in the fall keeps them from germinating.
dont go down to Paterson no no no lol.....
Rich...are you ever in NW Indiana to take a look at my lawn?
What's a good email contact for Rich?
Be honest, you watch Carolyn Molnar....
How to treat Japanese siltgrass
With Dimension as pre emergent
Worst grass seed I ever bought!!! Two weeks and still has not germinated.
Sounds like you have crap soil or crap watering
Mine emerged in five days, two weeks ago. If you seeded in May you stacked the deck against yourself.
Did you use a pre emergent before trying to seed?
Stick your finger into the ground and if it doesn't go up to your middle knuckle you need to core aerate. Mr. that statement just said, you don't know you ass from a hole in the ground. NO one can do that that has a lawn to mow. You failed right out the starting gate.
You are correct sir! It would be like a sponge!
Man he is combative when asked questions
He died 5 months ago, what questions did you have?
Nonsense
I hate people do presentation by reading the slide...talk from ur heard
My father knew his shit, he didn't need the slides. God rest his soul. I wish I could do the things he did with lawns. Instead I plant and prune.
@Mr. Meeseeks 😲😄
@@chrisimlay3417 He talked to me one night and really helped me with my lawn. I was shocked to hear about his passing. Even to this day I recommend this video to people who wonder about about JG
@@michaelurig3887 I know your comment is over a year old but i agree. This guy came to my house to look at my lawn and help me. No charge. Lol
To the op, this guy didn't need slides. The slides were for people that needed a visual. He could start talking about grass on a Friday night and still be talking about grass on Monday morning when you went to work.
@@chrisimlay3417 Chris your dad was the best. I learnt so much from him. I recalled about 2 yrs ago when I had trouble growing and maintaining grass under some trees in my lawn. I followed his advice and used JG Shady Nooks rather than JG Dense Shade. I had to trim the trees a bit though and I also learnt this from him.
laws against fertilizing? whatever. You can't tell me what I can and can not do anymore.
