  • You have a new lawn after completing the renovation steps...what's next?
    Today I answer when to mow after renovation, how to adjust your watering schedule and when and how much to fertilize. I got to complete a first mow after seeding tall fescue and things are coming along nicely. There's a lot of mowing ahead and I look forward to the rest of this fall lawn care season.

Then when I need it again I just undo the hook. You can use tie-wire, I just happened to have a big enough s-hook.

    Sharpening blades .... every time I did that, and I did try to keep the original angle, the cut quality suffered. I ended up just getting new original blades and using as is, without sharpening. What I am testing today (same mower as yours) is checking the RPMs and possibly increasing them. Learned a nice trick on you tube where after adjustment of governor spring, everyone says cut quality became awesome. Many videos on youtube on how to adjust the governor and Grass Daddy had a video on it as well.

Back in the 80s this week. Rains will start again next week. That's the PNW for ya. Perfect grass growing season though.

    I have spent more money and time on my lawn this past year to improve it. Total is ~$600 so far, I was shocked to see that. Not sure what a lawn service costs, but doing it yourself gives way more satisfaction. Somedays just stare at it for a few minutes. Recent dethatch and overseed. Used Scott's Thick R Lawn. 5 weeks later pretty thick, even though i have not been able to spot a single blade of new grass. I even added more seed for front and sides, maybe just too dense? I keep it around 3.25 inches now. I bought the coated seeds, maybe go uncoated next time.

      I should have provided some more Info. The areas I seeded some were bare ground some was overseeded and I covered all the bare areas with some weed free straw. So the seed is “covered” but I got a late start and some of this seed has just germinated and some seedlings are just barely poking out of the straw.. I’m going to just be miserable if they die. Thanks for your time Ryan.

    @cevour 4 роки тому

    Do you have any friends with a lot of trees on their property? I have a ton and it's very difficult this time of year to overseed or just seed, because of the amount of leaves that fall. I don't know if I should try and get them up with a lawn sweeper (seems not like a good idea, because of the new sprouts) or to just side discharge them. It's just difficult all around to grow grass with so many. I'd love it if you did a segment on their property or something showing how they get their grass growing or just helping them get it going. This is my second season here at my house, but the first I'm actually seeding and fertilizing.

    I dropped the SS1000 TTTF seeds on Sept 27. It's 9 days old now. 2 days ago and the week before it, air temp was averaging 50f. Soil temp was higher like 53f. I haven't seen any germinations until today. Temp yesterday was above 60s, WOOHOO! Today's temp was above 70s! I'm just not sure if the young TTTF grass will survive our winter since I was thinking it might not be able to grow deeper roots. What are your thoughts? We always experience subzero temps in January and February. Somewhere between -10F and -20F is normal in our area.

Or some different order? Thank you very much for Advice. And i must write. My soil is hard as ****. Lots of sunshine and i have cracks everywhere. Thx
