  • So much has changed since the humble beginnings of my lawn care journey way back at our small property miles away from where we are now. Along the way, a few have asked if I could show a glimpse of what I do on a spring day in the lawn and what needs to be accomplished to maintain all of this grass insanity I have going on?

    Those Lazer Z x series are the same mowers we buy at Yellowstone Landscape, good mowers, usually get about 2500 hours out of them, they are made to run all day, definitely a pro machine. That thing will probably last you a very very long time.

    Hello Ryan, hopefully my comment doesn’t get overseen. On regards to your commment on not seeing any germination yet! Have you tried soaking your seed in water to get a faster germination? There are a few videos out there. I had germination in 8 days for the KBG. I had it in a wheel barrow with saw dust. I did not had it in a busker of water like others have done. Two days ago I gave it a go to sumerge it. Will see when we get germination. Thanks

    • @ryanknorrlawncare
      @ryanknorrlawncare  2 місяці тому +1

      It's just colder soil temp but I saw germination that night. Typically when I'm seeding in warmer times I can get 3-5 days on rye and 6-8 on blue without any pre geminating

    Hi Ryan, I'm new to the lawn care community and you are one of the two channels I'm taking advice from. I do have a question. Laying new tall fescue seed with Scott's triple action for new lawn with misotrione at the same time. Can I or should I apply milogranite at the same time for stronger root development since I'm spring seeding in California?

    • @ryanknorrlawncare
      @ryanknorrlawncare  2 місяці тому

      You won't need it if you're doing the Scott's. You could use it later if needed but just don't go too crazy with it as it has high phosphorus.

    Maybe you need to raise the height of cut to stop the wind from drying out the lawn. Or perhaps you could plant some evergreens to block the wind and add a border to the lawn. I'll be tuned in to see how you handle the challenges. Good luck.
