Last fall I used that and plugged my whole green. I then used those plugs in other areas to create a couple bent grass hitting areas. Love your videos.
honestly this is making me feel better and i do feel your pain. this year has been a major struggle for my backyard green as well. Hoping to get some more seeding done and established starting in about 2 weeks. Good luck on the recovery!
Filling plug holes, a little trick i like to use is a gallon ziplock bag with sand and then pour it into the holes, almost like a pastry bag. super efficient
And I commented too early ... I see you had some troubles.... But, even with that your fairway/putting area is better than most lawns. Looking forward to seeing future videos
Have you tried covering it to help the seeding maybe seed and cover half with the white fleece fabric to help keep it moist to germinate quicker and you can still use the other half
Considered. This process has worked for me before. Just failed this time. Think I'm just going to let it do what it wants to do from now on. If parts aren't nice or don't fill in that's ok. Have it to use it and haven't been able to use it at all this year.
i was told by groundskeeper to always bag bentgrass or else it will get spongey, aerate twice a year, and definitely topdress multiple times a year. my biggest issue this year was not sand leveling because i dont want to dump it in my rock driveway. i havent really had fungus issues cause i mix azoxystrobin and propicanizol together and do max rate. i need to plug before i sand level for the first time this year here in a week or two. bentgrass does not like to fill in well unless you do sand level
One strategy is to making a nusery/donor area. This will allow you to quick patch areas.
Yup. I'm just gonna use the move areas as nursery. Plenty of square feet.

Excellent. Thank you and love to hear it.

It's hard. I screw something up or lose a portion every year essentially. Best of luck to you as well.

Pro plugger is great there is also a great copy on Amazon for half the price and it’s just as good
Good to know. Thank you.

Like a carpet!!
The good is really good. Unfortunately, the bad is also really bad.
To get bentgrass to take in your problem areas, plant the seed deep, 1/2. You won't have to give it more water than usual either.
Just about to buy one of these but it seems everyone else bought them all.
Hopefully they restock.
