Hey Ron, I have a large yard similar to yours, I invested in this walk behind boom sprayer 2 yrs ago... It definitely make your job a lot easier and a more evenly application spread.... This is the one I purchased... Master Gardener Rechargeable Cart Sprayer - 12 Volt, 9-Gallon Capacity, Model Number PCD-E3-009B-MM... Or since you like Chapin look at this one Chapin 97902 12 gallon Battery operated push sprayer... Any one will work but never used a Chipin though... Both on Amazon
Thanks for the tips Marcus. The walk behind is pretty sweet. Would probably save quite a bit of time. I'm just not sure where I'd store it. I'm already a bit cramped for space in my garage. I bet it puts down a very even pattern. Will have to look at some of the reviews on it. Thanks for sharing man. What kind of grass are you working with?
Ron Henry :.... I have Tifway Bermuda grass, I’m actually making another attempt over seeding using your method mixing Princesses 77 with sand next Thursday after sandman aerated my lawn.. Wish me luck!!!
By far, the very best hand held walking boom sprayer (I have ever used) is a unit put together by Dr. Wayne Currey (retired weed specialist at UF) at Weed Systems Inc. It uses a 3 gal SS tank with CO2 as a propellant. Booms can be configured any way you desire. Pricey but well built. I have used one since the late 80's when I was at Disney.
@@RonHenry C02 can be found at dive shops, paintball gear stores, etc. (or possibly local fire departments can refill tank). The last one I did (in Orlando) was less than $10. You just have to check around locally.
I'm confused about something. If the rate is 3-5 oz per 1000sqf and assuming that's per gallon of water, why 4 gallons in tank. Is this done as to not over feed lawn throughout the season?
You would multiply the rate by however many gallons you’re applying. So if you went with the 5 oz per 1k rate, you’d mix a total of 20 oz. of the product with 4 gallons of water and apply over 4k square feet. I have a newer spoon feeding video here: ua-cam.com/video/Ht3NuqMo9bc/v-deo.html
@@RonHenry If you reach the full 4000sq feet and still have liquid in the tank, do you suggest going over the already covered area again to finish what's left in the tank?
Ron, I have an ez-flo Water Soluble Fertilizer tank embeded in my sprinkler system. It is a 1.5 Gallon Tank. Any idea of the Flo Rate for this set-up? And is this Strictly for Lawns, or plants/Shrubs too ? I'm up in New York. Thanks.
Hi Ron, question. Once I mix my fertilizer with water with the correct ounces needed and start spraying, do I spray until the filler is empty? Or do I gage and stop whenever I feel likes it’s enough and the remaining will be waste?
Heya College Grads. Nope. I didn't serve in the military. I do teach martial arts though so that's where some of it likely comes from. Appreciate you watching.
It's so good! I really love mine. I review it here: ua-cam.com/video/3aQobEKRJ4s/v-deo.html I really like Supreme Green. Always open to trying new products for that next level of green! :-) Which sprayer are you using?
The Central Turf and Irrigation Stores by me do not carry the Brandt Supreme Green product. Seeing the alternative in the description, what is the desired amount of nitrogen so I know the right ratio to use?
Hi Chuck, I would use this in place of Brandt Supreme Green. golfcourselawn.store/products/turfplex-iv-20-2-3-with-seaxtra It's a more complete product. Apply it at a rate of 6 ounces per 1000 square feet every 2 weeks if you're spoon feeding. If you'd like to see a video detailing my fertilization program, check this one out: ua-cam.com/video/Ht3NuqMo9bc/v-deo.html Thanks for watching.
Hello Ron, I have bermuda grass which I live in the south. I have crabgrass and wanted to know how to rid of it without burning the bermuda? I have purchased a few products out if panic because it is spreading more everyday. I purchased quinclorac df75 , and tenacity. Reading the label I found out that I cannot use tenacity on bermuda. Is quinclorac good enough without burning the lawn? If I were to use a vert very small amount of tenacity will I still hurt my bermuda grass? How you use the quinclorac?
The more mature the crabgrass the less effective it is. Your best bet is to apply pre-emergent this fall and next spring. That’s the best way to control weeds in your lawn.
Hi K9. This is the liquid fertilizer I'm using for spoon feeding. golfcourselawn.store/products/turfplex-iv-20-2-3-with-seaxtra I don't believe Site One carries Brandt Supreme Green. Pretty sure they don't carry TurfPlex either. Let me know if I can help with anything else.
Have you used the N-EXT liquid products? Curious which is better. I keep getting tempted by the Humic12 and RGS. I've never done liquid but I'm almost sold 😁
I used the N-Ext products all last year. I still have some left, and I reordered 5 gallons of my favorite. I'm going to work a very similar program to Ron here.
@@blakekeeton4487 I just got on board w the N-Ext Products. I've gotten great results, but it's not cheap. Going to take a look at this Brandy Supreme Green
Throw a little blue dye in there and you will be able to see where you have applied. I also like the short term darkening the dye gives the grass for a few days.
I don't believe so. I've not seen guidance for application rates using a hose end sprayer. You'd want to use a backpack sprayer of some sort for better consistency in application.
Starting in March every two weeks Padriac. The nitrogen in Brandt Supreme Green is straight urea so good product for spoon feeding the lawn. If you do the bi-monthly feeding, apply 3 ounces per 1000 square feet each time. Due to less availability of Brandt Supreme Green, I'm switching the TurfPlex this season: golfcourselawn.store/products/turfplex-iv-20-2-3-with-seaxtra Application instructions are in the product description. I'll do my first application in early March. Let me know if I can help with anything else. 😎👍
On point asusual Ron. Whenever this virus shall have passed if possible I'll love to do a passthrough to view your lawn. I'm not too far (Ellenwood). Anyways can you shoot me a link for this product. Searching online but not seeing.
Heya Robert. You'd have to get Supreme Green at a local golf supply store. An alternative that's pretty much equivalent that you can get on Amazon is this product: amzn.to/2WRaPrI It has the same amount of iron and micronutrients. It just contains less Nitrogen which isn't a big deal since you're getting that primarily from your primary fertilizer. It's a good micronutrient solution.
Robert Young awesome Robert. Let me know it works out for you when you put it down. Remember to put it down at the suggested rate. Lighter is better than heavier. 😎👍
Hi Leo. I've never used it, so can really speak to the results. The ingredients are ones you can find in other products so it just depends on your preferences. Chelated iron is chelated iron. Zinc is zinc. etc. When I think about higher end fertilizers, the products from Lebanon Turf come to mind. The formulations used for slow release nitrogen and potassium have a lot of actual science behind them that produce a really good result. My recommendation is to get a good soil test done and then apply products based on the results. I like this one: amzn.to/3fACZPA Once you have healthy soil, good-looking turf really comes down to proper and consistent mowing. Hope this helps. 😎👍
@@RonHenry I got the results of my back yard soil test. The front yard was lost in the mail for a bit, so those are coming, but the recommendations they gave me are a little confusing. One is an Organic that would cost me over $800 for one application (4-4-4) the other is a synthetic (8-24-4 or 0-0-48 SOP). Why are they so different if I can use one OR the other? I'm low in Nitrogen, phos, Potas, calcium, magnesium, manganese, zinc, copper and Boron! Sounds like my soil s---ks!! Optimal in pH, sodium and Iron (thanks, Milorganite!). High in sulfur. (???)
@@sbender9518 did these results come from MySoil? If possible, can you email a picture of the results to me? I'll be able to tell you what to apply to help get your soil in order. It shouldn't cost $800 to amend your soil. ron@ron-henry.com is my email.
Hahahha. I didn’t know that Richard. I can only imagine how much you shake your head and say to yourself “He’s totally screwing that up but this should be entertaining!” 🤣 Appreciate you helping me out man.
@@RonHenry I am using Ignite 8-8-8 Ewing's Empro product line, and the same for my micro and humic. Also doing liquid for Insecticide (Bifen/Dominion) and Pre/Post. (Prodiamine/2,4-D/XLR8)
@@RonHenry This season I am only doing Liquid products. Any it saves on space in the garage. I like using my tow sprayer and backback sprayer. Win/Win/ PITTL
1st, great looking backyard. Have you heard of or used the N-Ext Products. I just started using and have gotten good results. I am looking for a mild liquid fert to put on during Summer months (NWGA area). I may give this Brandy Supreme Green a shot. Good video!
Heya Mooch. No I haven't used the N-Ext line of products. I keep hearing great things about them. Brant supreme green would be a great option for what you're looking for. Alternatively, you can use this: amzn.to/2WRaPrI if you don't have easy access to Brandt Supreme green. The ingredients are very similar. 😎Thanks for the kind words about the yard.
You bet! Important to be safe when applying products to your lawn. The stuff we use is relatively safe but best to keep it off your skin whenever possible.

Hi Tom. Not sure o that one. Are there any flow rates provided on the manufacturers website based on water pressure?
Hi Ron, question. Once I mix my fertilizer with water with the correct ounces needed and start spraying, do I spray until the filler is empty? Or do I gage and stop whenever I feel likes it’s enough and the remaining will be waste?
Mix the amount of product needed to cover your lawn. 1 gallon of water / product mix per 1000 square feet.

Heya College Grads. Nope. I didn't serve in the military. I do teach martial arts though so that's where some of it likely comes from. Appreciate you watching.

Quinclorac should work well if the crabgrass is still young. Be sure to read and follow the label rates.
@@RonHenry what is my worse case scenario if the crab grass isn't young? Also can it be applied before rain or does it have to be a dry period?
The more mature the crabgrass the less effective it is. Your best bet is to apply pre-emergent this fall and next spring. That’s the best way to control weeds in your lawn.
Ron, are you still using this? Thinking of spoon feeding this year. And does site one carry it?
Hi K9. This is the liquid fertilizer I'm using for spoon feeding. golfcourselawn.store/products/turfplex-iv-20-2-3-with-seaxtra I don't believe Site One carries Brandt Supreme Green. Pretty sure they don't carry TurfPlex either. Let me know if I can help with anything else.

Hi sir do we need to water the turf after sprayed?
Hi Mazni. Not for this product. You want it to dry on the leaves. No watering for a 4 - 6 hours after application is ideal.
Throw a little blue dye in there and you will be able to see where you have applied. I also like the short term darkening the dye gives the grass for a few days.
That's a great idea Wesley. I'll be sure to do that when I apply PGR in the next few weeks. Awesome suggestion.
Do you use any specific type of dye?
Another nice video!
Thanks again!😎👍
Can it be applied using an end of the house sprayer?
I don't believe so. I've not seen guidance for application rates using a hose end sprayer. You'd want to use a backpack sprayer of some sort for better consistency in application.
