@Connor Ward - the lawn looks awesome! btw, have you ever done voice-overs for owen wilson? theres no doubt you would have crushed him as hansel in the zoolander movies! when i close my eyes, i can't tell if it's you or him cutting your yard... i also cant see the ditches by the shed...
I fell in love with growing grass after watching Lawn Tips, Ryan Knorr and Lawn Rebel. Not necessarily in this order. Love you all guys and thank you for sharing your knowledge with others.
I Agree! This is why I watch your channel Conner. Nice job! Your hard work is an inspiration to a lot of us lawn nerds. Your lawn was the first time I said “wow” to a UA-cams grass channel. And then you turned me onto thelawnforum. I’ve been living the dream ever since. Thank you!
I just bought a house and have been forced to learn about lawn care, glad I found your channel man I’m hungry for the wealth of knowledge you’re gifting to the world. The videos are very entertaining and funny as well, thanks guy!!
First Aussie 😁. Everything is coming along nicely, you’re an inspiration to us all, your stubbornness and perseverance to get the job done right is amazing. Great work Moustache Wearing Mountain Man from Utah. 😎👍👍
Do you put first Aussie in every lawn video? As a Australian it makes me cringe. It's like mega attention seeking. Like look at me I'm Aussie and I watch your videos. You better acknowledge me.
I LOVE THIS VIDEO! You are SO Right, people think just cutting their grass is the do all for lawn care. I first have to trim ALL the edges with the trimmer, then edge with the edger, then use the blower to blow all of the trimming and grass clippings onto the lawn.then I’ll bring out the lawn tractor and the walk behind. And this is done EVERY Tuesday and repeated every Friday, because Saturdays are for maintenance in my Vegetable garden and any weeding in the landscape. 🥵And I STILL need to repair my lawn. It ain’t easy. You have to be fully committed to making and keeping a good looking lawn.
This video is so good! Love the discussion about what might not have worked as well/easily as well as what worked. Last year I did a big sand leveling, this year a big kbg overseeding kbg in Fall, and planning a big sand leveling next year-you do what you can each year and hope the next year looks a little better. Inspiring to watch your honest journey and gain advice. Cheers!
Enjoy the good parts of your lawn and embrace the challenges it brings…the negative comments usually is just jealousy…lawn looks great from what I can see
Thank you Conner for having and sharing your love to a nice and beautiful garden and lawn! I liked the open view more than this house across the street aaand...yours looks far better! Lawn looks fantastic compared to some weeks ago. Gotta get some sawdust for reseeding patches! Seems to work perfect
You're one of my favs dude. Not a lot of useless talking or pushing crap to buy. If you're ever in Texas I will invite you over for a cold one or some bourbon. Lawns looks freakin awesome too.
Never watched your videos before, but i absolutely loved when you said that you do this for you. Everytime people ask me why i am keeping so busy in my yard i always say because i like to do it
Connor, Take the good with the bad. You have given the lawn care community much so keep your head up! Your lawn looks better than the majority of lawns in the USA!
Hey Connor. I established a "monostand" of Riviera Bermuda here in NC. As hard as I tried to kill the existing grass, some common bermuda remains. My front yard is a different variety of bermuda (Tifway 419) that was established from sod, but the transitions look good if kept short (.60" or so using my battery powered reel mower fleet - I own several of them). Anyway, I find inspiration in what you are doing, and the beds, which yours look so great, in a bermuda lawn are a chore to say the least (always pulling/"killing" the stuff in the beds). I did a #bedjob around my mailbox recently, and used the ProPugger to cut lines in the turf and a shovel to cut the turf away and roll it up. Worked great. Waiting for the flowers to pop and just fertilized using the bucket method I saw you using (thanks brother)! Anyway, I keep coming back to check out your awesome lawn, and for the entertainment that you provide. Keep up the great work! 👍
Connor lawn looks awesome! do it for your happiness people on the internet will never be pleased you could Photoshop in Augusta National grass and people would still nitpick
To hell with all the naysayers. Your landscape, lawn, and house are everyone of your subscriber’s dream. Keep making videos, we’d be sad if you stopped. Your videos motivate us to make our yards beautiful, too. Up until this year I’ve only wanted a low maintenance landscape. Now we’ve got color popping in the front and back. It’s a lot of work but well worth it. You’re awesome, man. We appreciate you.
Yo mate the lawn looks great. Go the sissy grass. Good explanation on making the change. I have been watching for years and didn’t remember you killed the grass off!
The issue with UA-cam is that you condensed in to a wonderful 18 min video HOURS and HOURS and HOURS of work! We see glimpses of the work that goes into it, but we do not see everything. Thanks for the honesty about how long it takes to get here and reminding us that it does not happen over night. It is inspiring!
Just wanted to let you know, you have inspired me to do a complete makeover on my lawn! Wish I had the sun you do, but tall fescue it is!!! Thanks for the content brotha!!
Been following since pre-youtube on the lawncareforum. Loved a reply you gave to me early on about how important it is to have a base of KBG (for spreading and self repairing characteristics) followed by overseeding of perennial rye in subsequent years for beauty. That approach has served me well, so what you're suggesting here is consistent with what you've been doing and recommending for a long time. Does that mean I subscribe to every approach taken? No, but I think that's the draw of lawn care as a hobby, we're all the CEO of our own yard! That's why it seems fair to say this isn't a 'how to' channel, but more, 'here's a peek at what I'm doing in my yard, take it or leave it for what you do in yours'. I appreciate the time and effort from you and others that goes into giving us that peek!
Lawn looks amazing! Got a cheap used mclane, my bermuda has a mix of two different sods, didn't realize it when I bought it, I mow in the evening, water in the evening. I have thrown down some bermuda seed from big box. In other words I do everything "wrong" my lawn looks great in my families eyes and the kids love it. I even throw a pop up pool for the kids right in the middle and have amazing lawn with a yellow circle right in the middle. Keep doing what you doing and forgot the negative comments.
Brilliantly solid and honest video this. Regardless of what comments you get you can beyond proud of what you have achieved there. It’s looking super sharp. Thank you for sharing your journey. Videos like this really help to inspire! (But not how to!). Keep up the great work. Well done. In other news when do we get to see you destroy those trees round the front?!
Lawn looks great and that’s surely the only thing that matters, not what type of grass. Well done. On the neighbours house, they say imitation is the greatest form of flattery. I actually am on the side of houses looking SIMILAR improves the look of a neighbourhood. Planning law in UK often enforces that houses are made to look similar. Don’t know what relations are like with the neighbours but a conversation where they acknowledge that they like your house and modelled their own after it could have gone a long way.
Glad to hear an honest assessment of why you went from nuking the lawn to get rid of the PRG to adding it back in. It just didn't work out and you wanted to get it back to what you had before. I am wondering if those patches you were getting before were just field grass that was somehow adapting to the low cut lawn. Doubt it would be something like quack grass. I know places that use Bermuda can use a product called Celcius to get rid of some of the field grasses but it can be rough on KBG. Supposedly it used to be labeled for KBG though. Wonder if it would be worth experimenting if you get more excessive patches. Those garage doors on the house across the street look oddly spaced and sized for the size of the garage itself.
Preach on brother! Your house looks great regardless if there are copycatters out there. One up them and put some nice darker colored shutters on your house around the windows. That would look fantastic and give your lawn that extra pop you are always talking about. Thanks for your content, your grass looks great!
ok, now tell us how you really feel 😃 anyway, it has now been years ago, and this channel randomly came up on my feed; and without hardly any yard work beyond a occasional mow on my very sad looking grass full of weeds and dirt spots, I said "wow, I like that, I think I'm going to try it" surprisingly the KBG worked in one section of my property that wasn't doing well, and has since been made over a few times with the other areas trying and finding what seed varieties worked in them too ...but this is where I got motivated and started, thanks, and I hope it never ends and we all keep pushing a little further every year
Commenting for the algorithm and to say thanks for all the great advice 👍🏻 I’m going to be overseeding my bermuda with KBG this fall and your videos have been super helpful
Lawn looks great Connor! I have been watching and following along for several years now while I work on my own lawn. This video, starting at @8:19 is the most honest self reflection and “a look back” that I’ve ever seen from you. It had a very genuine feel. I can tell you have put a lot of heart into your lawn and videos and sharing your world with us. Thanks again!
Love the love! I’ve been overseeding with some good ole twin city seed fielders choice and Ryan knor elite mix on my new Kentucky blue grass backyard that started from seed this past may. Did a nitrogen blitz with the prg overseed and it is looking grade A fantastic.
Hey Connor, i‘m watching your videos from Germany Berlin. I like your videos and your personality. Good job. I took a lot of ideas from you to my lawn. Thank you
Connor - you are doing a great job! I strive to have half as great a lawn as you! I appreciate your sharing and inspiring others to do great lawn work!
Hey man, I happened to see one of your videos just this winter and I saw the sprayer you were using and saw that other people were using backpack sprayers, laughed and couldn't believe how ridiculous all this was, its just a lawn... Guess who has a backpack sprayer now, ordering leveling sand, humic acids, sea kelp and all that good stuff. Who knew it was this fun taking care of your lawn. Now my neighbors make fun of me because I walk around with my sprayer all the time... But my lawn looks so much better so who cares, but if you have good tips how to deal with annoying neighbors let me know :D...... Just starting my lawn journey this season but so far I'm having a blast watching your videos and they truly inspire, keep it up dude.
This is such a great comment. Thank you for sharing this. It is so satisfying to see it freshly mowed and to see it full and green. Just a fun hobby. Yes it's work but it's also relaxing
Looks great Connor, glad to see you aren't an Allen Hain colony pushing Hydra tain or what ever. What is going on with the others! Thank you for the video!
Probably the best episode you've ever released. Thank you for being amazing, and honest not only with yourself but with all of us! Keep up the good work man. You are not cheating. I know people with TERRIBLE rye grass.
You’re the Man Connor! I was the guy who cut my grass when needed, didn’t care if it was so low it burnt it up. But after coming across your channel I’m mowing twice a week, edging where needed and throwing it down. Going into my second season and my lawn looks great. Still needs some work but it’s getting there. I purchased a used Lawnaire aerator and can’t wait use it this fall. Keep doing what you do, you’ve motivated me to take those extra steps to lawn awesomeness!!!!
I appreciate you showing the areas of the lawn that need work. Let's those of us without perfect lawns actually learn something and see the transformation in action!
I love how when people are looking at you ‘Looky Loo’ that you point the camera right at them 😂🤣. The lawn looks amazing. Love the mixture of KBG and RG. 👌🏼🙌🏼
I may be a 17 year old kid but I love this stuff as much as you. Great lawn. Love the videos and I love your personality. Keep making these because I love these videos
Love this. I was about to overseed this year with a Bluegrass / Ryegrass mix from Ryan Knorr. It is about 85% bluegrass and after watching a few more of his videos on ryegrass and this video here, I may have to rethink this a little. I have a lot of problem spots in the yard but have not planned on doing a full reno. Just want to dethatch, spray with Tenacity, top dress and level a few spots and overseed.
My discovery of Perennial Rye has helped a tremendous amount in mitigating erosion on a back yard someday-barn, someday-patio project. Michigan has been non-stop rain for several days. Hopefully the TTTF I planted among it will dig in some serious roots someday as well.
I have loved watching your channel over the last few years. Credit to you, since watching I’ve renovated my lawn (sand this fall?), found a love for dahlias, and just finished a paver patio. Thank you for all the not-how-to videos, and please keep them coming.
Looks better than my lawn. Just overseeded with midnight blue and now i can wait 3 or 4 weeks crossing my fingers. I have to ask though, what IS the fascination with having a perfect lawn if you dont use it for something maybe recreational?
There are 3 channels I look forward to seeing. Pete Denny GCI, Ryan Knorr and YOU. Your approach to teaching as well as admitting your short comings are the main reason. I have told numerous people about you and they have since subscribed. Keep it up and I’ll see you in the next one.
Lawn rebel You are the man I love your style and your passion... as a fellow lover of lawn work and mowing... you are inspiring Bought my first reel mower few weeks ago And ive got 3 different Toros Cant wait to get home and put in some work Ty👊👊
You are the man! Forget the haters! I subscribe to multiple "lawn care" channels, but I relate most to yours. I'm just a regular guy trying to grow a great lawn.
Great video Connor. This is a topic I’ve been hoping to hear about for awhile. When you killed off the lawn you kind of surrounded it in a air of mystery. To finally get an honest commentary about it and the aftermath was really satisfying. I love all your videos but really appreciate how honest you are which really comes through in this one. Lawn looks great btw.
I’m so glad you like doing this because I love watching you do it. I’ve been watching you channel for well over a year and I “need” to know the story of the pink flamingos please. Even if it’s a 30 second clip. As soon as w know, I might go buy some for my yard. Thanks Connor.
Easy with the St. Aug is crab grass inferences pal! J/K. They are fun. Your lawn looks great this season. The amount of passion, hard work and dedication you put into it is evident in every video. Thanks for the inspiration!
Connor just wanted to thank you for your video, especially on the grass seed and Dalia info. You provide a diff view of how to do lawn tasks especially the grass seed recommendation. On my way to get some Rye seed now.
Lawn looks amazing sir!!! I also love getting comments from folks walking by admiring the lawn. Makes me feel great knowing my hard work is getting noticed :)
Love the videos. Your the one that inspired me to kill off my PRG do a full Mazama KBG monostand in Western Oregon in 2019 when everyone said it wasnt possible. Dont regret it one bit. Like you I may overseed with Champions GQ PRG this fall in area's that are still struggling.
The lawn looks great don't let anyone tell you it doesn't! We all have imperfections and I'm glad you show the good and point out the things that bother you
You are so awesome. I love watching your videos. I’m going to do what you said and throw in some perennial rye and top dress my lawn. I love that you show the spots where it hasn’t gone well, especially when you took the time to go back through, find the same spots from past videos and show what has changed. Very cool!
Hey Connor, best video of 2021 for sure! Real talk! You Tube is luckily to have you on there. We are all fortunate to take this lawn journey with you. For freakin free I might add! Don’t worry about those keyboard warriors. They don’t know sh!t about your lawn! You do it your way and is true fans will be watching. You are totally yourself and that’s my favourite part about your channel. Life it to short to worry about negativity. Your passion drives me to kick some series butt on my lawn. I’m three years in and like you, so many renovations completed but so many to go. Just pulled the trigger on a dethatcher because of your vids. You are the only creator that I have notifications setup for and I can’t wait for each video to come out. It’s the best part of my week! Thanks for reading my comment and I’ll seeeeee ya in the next one!
I agree with you on the look of rye. I live in Central California and can't grow it here due to the heat. I'm going to move just so I can have a rye lawn.
You inspired me to start my lawn renovation a year ago with bluegrass in NC. Keep doing whatever you need to do, it's your lawn. The practices are more important than the type of turf in my opinion.
Update I live in central NC, it started great and was going fine but I neglected it due to my son being born. I actually am going to transition into a fine fescue, I just did not have enough sun light for it to really thrive.
Connor, I wish I could find a powered $200 reel mower. I am very jealous of you finding one for that price. I think your yard looks great man and this solidified my plan to overseed with Ryegrass this fall.

I saw you putting that SA in there with the word "crabgrass" - I will not forget.
I caught that too.
But do forgive, he knows not what he does.
That's a good one! Lol not crabgrass!!!!
Friendly jab at a compadre... "St Augustine IS NOT crabgrass" Remember the shirt?
@Connor Ward - the lawn looks awesome!
btw, have you ever done voice-overs for owen wilson? theres no doubt you would have crushed him as hansel in the zoolander movies! when i close my eyes, i can't tell if it's you or him cutting your yard... i also cant see the ditches by the shed...
The Lawn Tips hey, glad to see you know my name 😂
P.s. lawn is looking amazing mate, glad you are happy with it 👌🏽
Loving the Kudos given to our own @lawn tips 👍🏼 ⛳️ 😎
Don’t all DIYers know your name? If not, they should!
Lawn Tips is awesome, love the channel
Old mate Ben does a great job.
I fell in love with growing grass after watching Lawn Tips, Ryan Knorr and Lawn Rebel. Not necessarily in this order. Love you all guys and thank you for sharing your knowledge with others.
Best video in a while - honest conversation and lawn in looking 100%
Yes agreed! #inspired
Yes I agree this is soothing my soul
thank you. I put a lot of time into this one
I Agree! This is why I watch your channel Conner. Nice job! Your hard work is an inspiration to a lot of us lawn nerds. Your lawn was the first time I said “wow” to a UA-cams grass channel. And then you turned me onto thelawnforum. I’ve been living the dream ever since. Thank you!
@@hwolf8 agree. I think Connor introduced a lot of us to TLF.. awesome community
Great video. I love that you show “the ugly”. Your lawn journey is real. Work is paying off. Looks amazing.
I’d pay to have Connor Ward GIFs available on my phone. The mocking internet trolls is hilarious. Love the lawn and you’re an inspiration
The new neighbors are gonna have to step up their yard game as soon as they move in.
They'll just copy his like they did with the house.
@@sandman9601 That would be a ton of work if they try to copy Connor's lawn. They would have to be true fanatics to try to keep up.
Lawn looks waaayyyy better wow.... Really enjoy your honesty in this video. BTW best form of flattery is to copy a design you did
Somewhere in Iowa a certain someone is recording pieces of this video for future use
yeah... that "someone" is going to get thrown in the creek
@@lawnrebel i want to see this. I would pay Connor McGregor money. 🤑
Ms Ward would have to do a number on RK other half too 😂
I just bought a house and have been forced to learn about lawn care, glad I found your channel man I’m hungry for the wealth of knowledge you’re gifting to the world. The videos are very entertaining and funny as well, thanks guy!!
First Aussie 😁. Everything is coming along nicely, you’re an inspiration to us all, your stubbornness and perseverance to get the job done right is amazing. Great work Moustache Wearing Mountain Man from Utah. 😎👍👍
Do you put first Aussie in every lawn video?
As a Australian it makes me cringe. It's like mega attention seeking. Like look at me I'm Aussie and I watch your videos. You better acknowledge me.

This video is so good! Love the discussion about what might not have worked as well/easily as well as what worked. Last year I did a big sand leveling, this year a big kbg overseeding kbg in Fall, and planning a big sand leveling next year-you do what you can each year and hope the next year looks a little better. Inspiring to watch your honest journey and gain advice. Cheers!
Your channel is probably my favorite right now. Keep it up brother!
Enjoy the good parts of your lawn and embrace the challenges it brings…the negative comments usually is just jealousy…lawn looks great from what I can see
Mr ward i smell u a hard working man obviously done all that alone isn't easy task nice beautiful lawn and garden 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you Conner for having and sharing your love to a nice and beautiful garden and lawn!
I liked the open view more than this house across the street aaand...yours looks far better!
Lawn looks fantastic compared to some weeks ago. Gotta get some sawdust for reseeding patches! Seems to work perfect
I love your landscaping period! Not just the lawn. The beds, the baskets, everything.
We live in the grass seed capital of the world. I love lawn!
I’ve always been a fan of a KBG/PRG mix
yes. It really is a nice mix
You're one of my favs dude. Not a lot of useless talking or pushing crap to buy. If you're ever in Texas I will invite you over for a cold one or some bourbon. Lawns looks freakin awesome too.
looks good buddy! I'm starting to do all of this to my lawn now too because of seeing your results. Thanks for sharing!
Never watched your videos before, but i absolutely loved when you said that you do this for you. Everytime people ask me why i am keeping so busy in my yard i always say because i like to do it

Connor, your house and yard both look fantastic. Anyone saying anything negative is either jealous or doesnt even have a yard.
Shots fired at LCN, calling his St Aug crabgrass 😂😂
😂
haha Yes, he needs to step up. I think brett is going to change his mind soon.
@@CLosMRomero agreed. Brian’s Ryegrass was the nicest UA-cam lawn in my opinion. Now his Bermuda Grass is fantastic.

Amazing.
Do you water daily, or how does the above weather treat your lawn this time a year?
He said during the seeding process he was watering 3 times a day but usually he waters every other day.
Just wanted to let you know, you have inspired me to do a complete makeover on my lawn! Wish I had the sun you do, but tall fescue it is!!! Thanks for the content brotha!!
Now that you are getting more neighbours the fight for Lawn Domination will begin.
PFFFFFFFFF yeah right. They have no chance
They’ll put up a fence.
Connor's lawn and videos are awesome. Haters suck. You do you. You are one of the creators that helps keep things light and positive in the community.
Lawn looks amazing, definitely can see the progress. Taking care of the yard is a journey, slow but rewarding process.

Guess who has a backpack sprayer now, ordering leveling sand, humic acids, sea kelp and all that good stuff. Who knew it was this fun taking care of your lawn. Now my neighbors make fun of me because I walk around with my sprayer all the time... But my lawn looks so much better so who cares, but if you have good tips how to deal with annoying neighbors let me know :D...... Just starting my lawn journey this season but so far I'm having a blast watching your videos and they truly inspire, keep it up dude.
This is such a great comment. Thank you for sharing this. It is so satisfying to see it freshly mowed and to see it full and green. Just a fun hobby. Yes it's work but it's also relaxing
You videos have helped me tremendously with my lawn. I like how you show the good, the bad and the ugly.
You're lawn is looking terrific and thanks for bringing us along. The house across the street doesn't even have a lawn, looks like all concrete.
Looks great Connor, glad to see you aren't an Allen Hain colony pushing Hydra tain or what ever. What is going on with the others! Thank you for the video!
Connor, this is one of the best videos you have made. Bravo.
Hello there 👋👋 , how are you doing? Hope you’re safe.God bless you!
Probably the best episode you've ever released. Thank you for being amazing, and honest not only with yourself but with all of us! Keep up the good work man. You are not cheating. I know people with TERRIBLE rye grass.
You’re the Man Connor! I was the guy who cut my grass when needed, didn’t care if it was so low it burnt it up. But after coming across your channel I’m mowing twice a week, edging where needed and throwing it down. Going into my second season and my lawn looks great. Still needs some work but it’s getting there. I purchased a used Lawnaire aerator and can’t wait use it this fall. Keep doing what you do, you’ve motivated me to take those extra steps to lawn awesomeness!!!!
Great video..keep doing what your doing for you! We are the ones that keep coming back for more!
Hello there 👋👋 , how are you doing? Hope you’re safe.God bless you!
Best I have ever see it Lawn Rebel. You’re the GOAT in my eyes and I’m sure many others. Lots of love coming at you from Brisbane Australia 👍
I appreciate you showing the areas of the lawn that need work. Let's those of us without perfect lawns actually learn something and see the transformation in action!
I love how when people are looking at you ‘Looky Loo’ that you point the camera right at them 😂🤣. The lawn looks amazing. Love the mixture of KBG and RG. 👌🏼🙌🏼
We love watching you no matter what project you are working on 💜💜💜
I may be a 17 year old kid but I love this stuff as much as you. Great lawn. Love the videos and I love your personality. Keep making these because I love these videos
I love how much you love your lawn. Passion is contagious.
Great job Connor. Don't worry about the naysayers. You're doing great things there!
Time? Work? Dedication? I appreciate you brother. When should I visit?
Love this. I was about to overseed this year with a Bluegrass / Ryegrass mix from Ryan Knorr. It is about 85% bluegrass and after watching a few more of his videos on ryegrass and this video here, I may have to rethink this a little. I have a lot of problem spots in the yard but have not planned on doing a full reno. Just want to dethatch, spray with Tenacity, top dress and level a few spots and overseed.
My discovery of Perennial Rye has helped a tremendous amount in mitigating erosion on a back yard someday-barn, someday-patio project. Michigan has been non-stop rain for several days. Hopefully the TTTF I planted among it will dig in some serious roots someday as well.
Hello there 👋👋 , how are you doing? Hope you’re safe.God bless you!!
Your videos are cool Connor thanks for sharing.
Your lawn is beautiful.
I have loved watching your channel over the last few years. Credit to you, since watching I’ve renovated my lawn (sand this fall?), found a love for dahlias, and just finished a paver patio. Thank you for all the not-how-to videos, and please keep them coming.
Hello there 👋👋 , how are you doing? Hope you’re safe.God bless you!
Looks better than my lawn. Just overseeded with midnight blue and now i can wait 3 or 4 weeks crossing my fingers.
I have to ask though, what IS the fascination with having a perfect lawn if you dont use it for something maybe recreational?
There are 3 channels I look forward to seeing. Pete Denny GCI, Ryan Knorr and YOU. Your approach to teaching as well as admitting your short comings are the main reason. I have told numerous people about you and they have since subscribed. Keep it up and I’ll see you in the next one.
Lawn rebel
You are the man
I love your style and your passion... as a fellow lover of lawn work and mowing... you are inspiring
Bought my first reel mower few weeks ago
And ive got 3 different Toros
Cant wait to get home and put in some work
Ty👊👊
Great video. Lawn looks great. Good job. Very humerous also
You are the man! Forget the haters! I subscribe to multiple "lawn care" channels, but I relate most to yours. I'm just a regular guy trying to grow a great lawn.
Great video Connor. This is a topic I’ve been hoping to hear about for awhile. When you killed off the lawn you kind of surrounded it in a air of mystery. To finally get an honest commentary about it and the aftermath was really satisfying. I love all your videos but really appreciate how honest you are which really comes through in this one. Lawn looks great btw.
You are awesome man! I’m so glad I found your channel. You truly made my day.
The grass looks great. 👌👍
Been following you for a while and you have done a lot for it.
My compliments.
Greetings from the Netherlands👋
I’m so glad you like doing this because I love watching you do it. I’ve been watching you channel for well over a year and I “need” to know the story of the pink flamingos please. Even if it’s a 30 second clip. As soon as w know, I might go buy some for my yard. Thanks Connor.
Easy with the St. Aug is crab grass inferences pal! J/K. They are fun. Your lawn looks great this season. The amount of passion, hard work and dedication you put into it is evident in every video. Thanks for the inspiration!
Great job making her green and doing what it takes to do so, whether that be all KBG or a little bit of Rye to supplement..
Connor just wanted to thank you for your video, especially on the grass seed and Dalia info. You provide a diff view of how to do lawn tasks especially the grass seed recommendation. On my way to get some Rye seed now.
The lawn looks fantatsic. It certainly reflects all the hard work that you have put into it.
So thoroughly enjoyed this Connor. One of your best
I like your grass. I think it looks legit. And I've learned a lot from watching you. Thanks for putting in the work to share your videos.
Hello there 👋👋 , how are you doing? Hope you’re safe.God bless you!!
This is my favorite video yet! I love your reaction to things! Puts a smile on my face and a good little laugh. Keep up the awesome work
Lawn looks amazing sir!!! I also love getting comments from folks walking by admiring the lawn. Makes me feel great knowing my hard work is getting noticed :)
Hello there 👋👋 , how are you doing? Hope you’re safe.God bless you!
Love the videos. Your the one that inspired me to kill off my PRG do a full Mazama KBG monostand in Western Oregon in 2019 when everyone said it wasnt possible. Dont regret it one bit. Like you I may overseed with Champions GQ PRG this fall in area's that are still struggling.
The lawn looks great don't let anyone tell you it doesn't! We all have imperfections and I'm glad you show the good and point out the things that bother you
You are so awesome. I love watching your videos. I’m going to do what you said and throw in some perennial rye and top dress my lawn. I love that you show the spots where it hasn’t gone well, especially when you took the time to go back through, find the same spots from past videos and show what has changed. Very cool!
Hey Connor, best video of 2021 for sure! Real talk! You Tube is luckily to have you on there. We are all fortunate to take this lawn journey with you. For freakin free I might add! Don’t worry about those keyboard warriors. They don’t know sh!t about your lawn! You do it your way and is true fans will be watching. You are totally yourself and that’s my favourite part about your channel. Life it to short to worry about negativity. Your passion drives me to kick some series butt on my lawn. I’m three years in and like you, so many renovations completed but so many to go. Just pulled the trigger on a dethatcher because of your vids. You are the only creator that I have notifications setup for and I can’t wait for each video to come out. It’s the best part of my week! Thanks for reading my comment and I’ll seeeeee ya in the next one!
love going back to some of your old vids. this was a good one. loved the ending
I agree with you on the look of rye. I live in Central California and can't grow it here due to the heat. I'm going to move just so I can have a rye lawn.
You inspired me to start my lawn renovation a year ago with bluegrass in NC. Keep doing whatever you need to do, it's your lawn. The practices are more important than the type of turf in my opinion.
What part of NC are you in? which seed did you use? How is it doing now?
How is the bluegrass doing?
Update I live in central NC, it started great and was going fine but I neglected it due to my son being born. I actually am going to transition into a fine fescue, I just did not have enough sun light for it to really thrive.
Connor, I wish I could find a powered $200 reel mower. I am very jealous of you finding one for that price. I think your yard looks great man and this solidified my plan to overseed with Ryegrass this fall.
