  • Plant Growth Regulator or PGR has a ton of benefits for your lawn. Not only does Plant Growth Regulator slow down the growth of your grass, it also makes your lawn darker, more disease/fungus resistent, and helps with heat stress. It can also decrease seed production in your grass and help your lawn grow in thicker.
    I talk about what Plant Growth Regulator is, how to apply Plant Growth Regulator, and where you can buy it.

    I started using PGR in 2016 after having to mow my tifway 419 daily to avoid cutting the color off of it. The results were amazing. I have pictures of a stem of neighbors Bermuda and a stem of my PGR treated grass. The neighbors stem had 7 to 8 leaves and mine had way too many to count, 60 to 70 leaves. Additionally, mine was a much darker green in color. PGR is a game changer!

    How much time after putting fertilizer down can you put PGR down. I put fertilizer down when the ground temperature is 55, which could be as early as the end of March. BTW, I’m one of those nuts that loves to mow. I would use the PGR in the back because of our dogs. I like the fact that it helps thicken the grass. Excellent videos that you put out. Keep up the great work.

    There are products nearly identical to T-Nex that come in smaller quantities. Pramaxis MEC is one of them, it can be found around $40 for 8oz. Application rate is .75oz per 1000sqft for most grasses so you get around 6000sqft per bottle. One bottle last me a year so it's perfect. Bioadvanced Slow Mow has the same active ingredient in a granular form. It's usually available locally as well for around $20. So there are options out there.

    I’m in central Minnesota and I believe you mentioned you lived in The Land of 10,000 lakes as well in a previous video. I hope you enjoyed the heavy rain we just got as much as I did! My lawn is exploding after I dethatched/aerated and did a spring overseed with Tenacity, Scott’s starter and an application of Milo shortly after when I noticed germination starting. I’m in the south metro and am just starting on this 3/4 acre tall grass project lawn after buying this house last fall.
    Any suggestions on what my next application should be? My nitrogen isn’t too bad but my Phosphorus is running hot after doing a soil test yesterday. I got a bag of Lesco 24-0-10 that I planned on throwing down on the smaller front lawn once things down in June but I need to convert to all spraying to be more cost effective for this size of yard(about 25,000 sq ft total). I have a 4 gallon electric sprayer that I’m not afraid to use and a JD rider so frequent cutting isn’t a concern to me.

    • @LAWNLIFE
      @LAWNLIFE  3 роки тому +1

      I am in Minnesota also. I'm in the northern suburbs and my grass loved the dumping after that dry spell as well. I could barely keep up with the growth, it was pretty crazy.
      What kind of soil test did you use? I would back off most fertilizer applications in the summer unless you plan on spoon feeding. I would suggest getting a pull behind sprayer for your rider and using dissolved urea as your fertilizer, it would be a very cheap way to go. I have a video on how to do dissolve it on my channel. I know it's hard not to do anything when you want to really work hard at the new lawn, but I would hold off on putting down anything else down unless you're going to put down some humic acid or something like that.

    • @briarklehr1971
      @briarklehr1971 3 роки тому

      @@LAWNLIFE I just do at home soil tests for NPK and PH. I only worry because my potassium and nitrogen were below average and I hate to see what will happen when the heat of the summer rolls around. I agree with you that an application of humic acid would be a good idea. I’ve never used it before though so I’ll start with a mild dose on the 1st run. I’m new to this particular lawn so I don’t know how dormant it gets but it’s older KBG from the late 80s so I doubt it’s engineered to stay greenish in the heat like some of the newer seed. Maybe some liquid iron would help with that? I wish I had a level lawn like yours otherwise I would definitely invest in a reel mower for the 5,000 sq ft front yard to show off. Maybe a full renovation for that part in my near future?
      Any suggestions on pull behind sprayers? I only ask because I’ve seen mixed reviews on UA-cam. Maybe I can buy a decent one and upgrade the tips? I love the TeeJet tip I have on my backpack sprayer.

The website is greenkeeperapp.com

    Thanks. Great video. I have Zenith Zoysia and I don't mind mowing every few days, but I'm sure it will start to annoy my wife since I'll be mowing more often to stay closer to a lower mow height, so this T-Nex will be a great item for my shelf-o-chemicals.
    Do you have to apply this with a fine spray on Zoysia or turf with stolons and rhizomes, or could you use something like a Gilmore/Chapin 362G professional hose end sprayer? Typically what I do with other liquids is add water, add the amount of item I'm spraying, set the meter to 1 and that's enough to go across my lawn fully, then again at a 90 degree angle. Would that work, or would I have to lug around my FlowZone sprayer? Great sprayer for sure, but it's kind of a pain putting on and off enough to spray a 15,000 sq. ft. lawn. That takes me about 18 gallons of mix using my FlowZone sprayer.

I would definitely try out a different slow release type fertilizer that you can get locally. Your odds of burning anything go wayyyyyyyy down. Ironite is not a fertilizer. Just a product to get your grass green with iron.
      If you end up going the quick release route, try spoon feeding (small amounts) and let me know what the results are!

      You're most likely getting tip burn when it comes to the slight burning. I have noticed that it helps to irrigate 4 hours after it being on the leaf blade. That has solved my issues with that.
      Instead of using ounces, use mL. You can buy cheap syringes off of Amazon and you're going to get a much more accurate measurement. I have used up to 12 mL per k before but right now I'm right at around 10 mL.

    New to the PGR game, I have 2 questions....1) does the PGR have an impact on the weeds still growing in my lawn? and 2) I have no idea what type of Bermudagrass I have....I'm guessing it's common but not sure at all, and seeing the rate is immensely different between common and the others, how would yall handle that?!?!? I played it safe in July by picking the .25 oz/1k rate, didn't seem to do much but it was it's first ever application. In August, I decided to double that rate and it seems to have slowed the growth a little......NOW, I just learned about GDD....and according to that calender, I'll be due to apply again this week, if I'm understanding that concept properly....your take on that?!?!?

    Jesse - You talked about what PGR is, how to apply it, and where to buy it. But, you didn't say how often you apply it. Do you apply it once a week, once a month, more often, less often...? Thanks!

    Hey Jesse! Big fan of your channel! I’m about to apply my first ever application of T Nex using your recommendation of 50% of the recommended amount on the first application, 75% on the second and then step up to 100% on the third. My plan is to apply once a month, but since I’m using less should I apply the second application 2 weeks after the first and the full application 3 weeks after the second and then go monthly once I’m using 100% or just stick with the monthly application no matter what? Appreciate you man!

    • @LAWNLIFE
      @LAWNLIFE  Місяць тому

      Hey Jerome. I think that sounds like a great plan. Sometimes an app won't last quite a month, but you'll be able to tell when it wears off. The grass will start growing like crazy. It depends on rain, heat, etc for how long it will last. If you really want to go down the rabbit hole look up GDD (growing degree days)

      I went to one of those weed grower stores today. Pretty much everything they sell was some organic b.s. They recommended one product they said was the one. I wanted to check the ingredient list to see if it would be ok for turf. This little bottle was 8 ounce and cost 65 usd. Well , I was surprised to find the ingredients were 1-16-8. That's right. What they are selling as pgr is fertilizer. And pretty weak fertilizer at that. Caveat emptor.
