@@lakehouselawncare1755 what height should we mow it down to for cool season before we go to thatch??
Well produced with great narration...and good information. Way to go.
Thank you!!
Great video! I will be doing my first mow after my overseed 15 days ago. I'm beyond excited to give the lawn a trim and clean it up.
Thanks, Jonny! Your patience will pay off. Enjoy your first mow!
Agreed on the fert, I threw down some last week right before we got that much needed rain, made a huge difference in color and growth. We've had a very dry summer in IL no doubt about it.
I did the same! Put fertilizer down right before the rain we got all week. I'm glad to hear your grass is looking good!
Love that carpet look over the stripes. Lawn looks great.
Thank you, brother! I hope all is well.
Stripes or Bust 🤣🤣🤣

Thanks for the info buddy
Thank you for watching a commenting, Allen!
Your doing a good job 👍
Great video. New subscriber (just commented on the other "Mistakes folks make..." video. I over seeded my TTTF lawn on September 2. Added some amazing cultivars to my "Big Box Store" original seed. My story is a bit different....but short version is that the lawn - and I use that term "freely" here - was about 70% dirt and about 30% "green". Yes.....used specifically. Of the "green", likely 89% of that was weed. So, I killed the weeds and then seeded. I specifically and intentionally used the "Big Box Store" TTTF grass seed. Had decent results. Nice coverage, fair color, but suffered this summer (July and August in Lexington, NC are tough....). So, I over seeded. Used top-tier TTTF cultivars. Great results. Your video sums up nicely what folks can do to dramatically increase their success rate. Again, job well done.
Thanks so much for the feedback, Cary! I'm glad you've had awesome results with your TTTF. That's a great grass type for your zone in NC!
good video, what's your preferred method for covering the seeds to prevent birds from eating them?
where you been bro?! good to see ya!
What's up brotha?! Great to hear from you. Kids schedules have made time for UA-cam limited but it feels good to get the camera back out! I hope all is well buddy.
Good tips👍
Thank you!
Good Video.😁
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for the comment.
Great video! My yard looks like shit...working on it though
Thank you! That's how mine started, too. Nothing you can't fix with a little hard work.
What about covering the scene with Pete moss to keep it moist
love your vids GO SOX!!
Thank you, Jerry!
Are there any additional steps needed to prep clay soil for overseeding? We've had a pretty dry season here in Wisconsin, and my lawn isn't looking great after dethatching and overseeding
No sir! Just wait for the cooler weather and rain that will come. It seems to be here today near Chicago.
So nailing down the the just right watering routine has been my challenge with my overseed as well as fighting squirrels. I’ve been watering 2 to 3 times a day with hose end oscillating fan sprinklers and most of yard seems to be just the right amount of wet except for a couple of spots that get soggy even with just 10 minutes. I don’t know if that’s because those spots happen to be the more bare spots with peat moss covering or what. Thinking about just using the eye and touch test to determine if I need to water or not and possibly just hand watering because my front yard is less than 1k square feet and the back is about 2k. Thoughts?
Thanks for the comment. It could be a low spot that is collecting the water and causing the issue. Hand watering would definitely help with that issue but it's very time consuming. The squirrels are a huge pain but there's not much you can do about them other than getting a motion sensor sprinkler attachment.
@@lakehouselawncare1755 yeah my motion sensor sprinkler is me when I see one and then me walking out of my office and spraying them with a hose.
So I have been watering since this last Sunday and with those areas having been waterlogged does that mean that area is trash and can’t be recovered?
What happens if you put down too much grass seed? I recently put down three times the amount recommended.
What happened ? It's been a week...
@@jesuswantsyoutopayme actually it's been about 2 weeks. The grass germinated pretty well. It's super thick in places. Who knows if all of it will survive though.
@@johnp82 awesome. I did something similar a week 5 days ago. I even pregermed half of it. Nothing. Maybe I'm just impatient
Can I overseed 3 weeks after applying triclophr ester?
Yes you can! It's recommended you wait 3 weeks after the application to seed.
Would seed take if I tilled up dead sod and planted on top of that ?
If the sod isn't rooted, you're better off just pulling all the dead sod out, leveling with some topsoil and starting fresh.
@@lakehouselawncare1755 what if it’s rooted but dead grass?
@MrIowahawks77 then yes, you can just till it or poke holes in it before overseeding.
@@lakehouselawncare1755 would you poke how’s manually or get an aerator ?
Hi! Can I get some of that chicken poo out here in AZ? Maybe a personal delivery. Please and thank you!
😂 I'm on it!! It's actually made here in Pearl City.
Can you over seed dead / SOD?
If the sod is rooted, yes. If it's not, just pull it out, level it with some dirt then seed the area.
@@lakehouselawncare1755 I think the drought just killed most the side I had. I’d have to replace a lot
That thumbnail though 🥵
😂😂
This lawncare channel is starting to become a thirst trap! haha...might as well start a fitness channel too!
😂😂 I do actually have a fitness channel. Thanks for the comment.
@@lakehouselawncare1755 is it Lake House Gun Show? anyways, thanks for another video...glad to see your subscriber count climbing!
If I wait until the brown grass rebounds, then it’s too late to overseed if it is indeed dead. You guys are all the same.
If there are areas that didn't green up and look good in the spring, those are the areas that you need to over seed for sure.
Is this man click baiting the lawn care community?
