Just the tip! I love a good tip job. Thanks for letting us watch you touch tips
😂 you can’t beat a good tip job. A little game of just the tip.
Mowing will make it or break it! I've cut twice already just knocking a quarter to a half inch off the tips. I put pre-emergent and a light dose of fert down on Tuesday, lawn is perking up and so are the trash cans flying down the street with these crazy winds today 🤣🤣
😂😂 we had trash cans going by like tumbleweed too! Good call with the early mows and best of luck to you this spring, Andy!
Glad to see I’m not the only one landscaping in Sox hat 🧢 💯✌🏼
Yeah buddy!! Go Sox! Thanks for watching, Brody.
Saw you in a video Allyn Hane on his podcast. Checked out your channel and really enjoy your content!! Continued success and all the best!
Meanwhile in Wisconsin, today’s high will be 39 degrees. Even my dog is like WTF!🥶
Next Saturday it’s supposed to be 80° and sunny! I can’t wait. Thanks for watching and commenting. Hopefully the warm weather is headed your way.
Last spring I began following the Lawn Whisperers lawn plan. My grass looks great this spring. I began cutting it 2 times a week and it is green and lush. Just like you mentioned, no fertilizer needed until growing season! Truly enjoy your vids and the rest of the lawn care community.
Justin is a great guy! I’m glad you have had great results too. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Your grass looks great! Things in common. I’m a MS PE teacher suburbs of Chicago and love to take care my grass. Thank you for your educational videos!
Awesome!! There’s no better job in the world! Thanks for watching and commenting, Mariano.
Came for the Sox hat...stayed for the lawncare
😂 it's been a rough week for the Sox! Hopefully they can turn it around. Thanks for watching and commenting, Brad.
The first mow is in the books. The season has officially started and your off to a great start. Mow , mow , mow your lawn gently down the ....... lol . Looks great already
Thanks you, Keith! 😂 you will be laying stripes in no time! Cheers my friend.
And it will be about 30% even better in one month.love it
Yes!! It looks better already since I filmed this. Enjoy that greensmaster, my friend.
It’s all about the mow , great way to jump start your lawn! Great video 👍🏻✅
You know it! Thanks so much for watching and commenting.
The lawn is looking great man! We're getting some crazy weather over here in Washington State too.
Thanks, buddy! This weather needs to get it together. Up and down all the time. Thanks for watching and commenting, Brewbuilds!
That has to be the coolest mower I've seen.
Thank you! It’s made for cutting golf course greens. I love it. Thanks for watching and commenting!
Damn your backyard looks bomb my dude! Looking forward to an awesome season!!! 😊🤙🏾🙏🏾
Thank you my friend! I’m really happy with the way things are looking this year. Thanks for watching and commenting!
Your lawn is looking great ❤️
Thank you, Bertie! I appreciate you watching and commenting. Cheers!
Yeahhhh buuuudy. Lookin good already! 👍👍
Thanks, Travis!! It feels so good to be mowing again. Cheers, brother!
I live in Cincinnati Ohio about five hours from Chicago and as of April 15th I still have not fertilized my yard. Spring I worry about Bio Stimulants getting my roots better and my grass thickened up first then fertilize second
I will be putting down bio stimulants with my first application next week. You can definitely put them down now if you would like also. Thanks for watching and commenting!
Nice man you’re way ahead of us in WI.
Thanks, buddy! Hopefully you can get the John Deere out soon.
Great results 👏 your grass simply looks great 👍 I used to mow with a machine just like yours in a golf course( the greens) here in Wisconsin, and the results were awesome 👌 👏 thanks for sharing this great video
Thank you, Fernando! I love the looks of short cut grass. Thanks for watching and commenting.
@@lakehouselawncare1755 you are very welcome ! I'll be waiting for your next video. Once again, thanks for sharing 👍
Just the tip is one of the only games I am good at.
😂 thanks for watching and commenting, LaTone!
It's all about that initial tip job! 😂👊
Great looking start!
😂 it’s what it’s all about! Cheers buddy! 👊🏼
Thick or bust! 🤩
You know it!! That’s always the goal! Thanks for watching and commenting.
Love your videos, we just got 18 inches of snow here in Winnipeg. We’ll be lucky to do a first mow at the beginning of May.
Thank you, Will! 18 inches?! 🤯 Say it ain’t so. It won’t be long until you are out laying down some stripes. Cheers my friend! Thanks for watching.
Looking great already Kyle! 👍🏼
Thank you, Nate! Cheers, buddy!
Ayooo! Kyle! wen we gonna get some good growing weather lol
Seriously!! This spring has been absolutely brutal. Possible snow tonight. 😭
First pull!!! Hoping mine does the same today/tmrw for the first mow!
I love when it starts on the first pull! Good luck to you and thanks for watching!
I see your hat, Go Twins!
Go Sox! Hopefully you will warm up soon in MN. Cheers, buddy!
Just the tip
Job
That's what she said!
A little game of just the tip!
@@lakehouselawncare1755 haha. Indeed.
Great vid GO SOX!!!
Thanks, Jerry! Go Sox!
I’ve mowed 3 times a week and did liquid iron and it looks amazing. But all my flowers are really doing well so maybe it’s the weather and rain?
Awesome! There is no better approach than mowing frequently. The rain definitely helps, but that liquid iron will give it a nice deep green color.
How is it most people have to cut their grass 3.5-4in for a nice yard, but this dude can cut his to the dirt and looks perfect
😂 Over the period of a few years, I cut my grass slightly lower and lower to get it used to a short cut. I had to do some leveling but now it's to the point that it's like carpet at 1/2 inch. Thanks for watching and commenting, Kdglock44.
Lawn looks good man !
Thank you, my friend! Now we just need some warm weather to get it in mid season form. Cheers, brotha!
Sprenkle yard/lawn with coffee grounds once a year. Turns dirt green..
love the videos man. GO cubs.
Thank you, Dennis! Good luck to your cubbies in Colorado. Both Chicago teams are looking solid so far!
Man I’m so jealous of the greensmaster lol
😂 you need one in your life. There’s nothing quite like it.
@@lakehouselawncare1755 I completely agree!
Double Double! Nice
Thanks, Scott! Double Doubles are my favorite. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Greetings from Canada! I was binge watching your videos today, trying to pass the time until my mowing season starts… Hopefully soon! So happy to see you out in the lawn for 2022! I have a quick question. I know you are using more liquid fertilizers now but I’m still a granular man. When you start fertilizing, would you recommend spoon feeding with 0.25-0.5 lbs all throughout the summer or just in the prime growing seasons? Appreciate you taking the time to answer my question and I can’t WAIT for more of your videos!
Thanks so much for watching my channel, Taylor! I appreciate your kindness. I’d recommend throwing down around .5 pound of nitrogen/1000sq ft. after your 3rd mow. Another application after your grass has its seed heads in May, then you don’t want to fertilize much at all during the summer.
@@lakehouselawncare1755 thanks Kyle, again I can’t wait for your 2022 content!
I am trying your way this spring no fertilizer yet here in staten Island New York
First fertilizer application is going down next weekend! Let’s go!
Nice grass😁
Thank you Siggi!
Nice Hat
Thank you Rick! Go sox
what mower is this? Love it
Spokane guy... I happen to live in Spokane. he's using a toro greens master 1000.
What’s up, Spokane Guy?! This is a golf course greens mower I bought a few years ago. It gives the best clean cut and allows me to mow very short. Thanks for watching and commenting.
What type of grass do you have? Seems very Short. We have Kentucky Blue grass and fescue so we would not be able to use that leveral
I have Kentucky bluegrass and perennial rye. It took a while for the grass to get used to being cut that low but now it has no problem with it. Thanks for watching and commenting!
where’s my shoutout mr. colborn?? 😂
😂 dang! I’ll have to remember for next video. Thanks for watching and commenting, Shayne! I hope you have a great weekend.
Yard looks amazing already
Nebraska got me down😑
Thanks, buddy! Warm weather is on the way. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Can you cut the grass too often? I have a robot lawn mower and has set it so it cuts the entire lawn every 2nd day. half the lawn each day, so total of 2 days for the entire thing to be cut and i have set it to cut every single day
Sorry for my late response, ZekeMagnum. You really can’t cut the grass too often as long as your blades are sharp. Thanks for the comment!
Chicken Poo worked good then?
I just used so far The Andersons 5-5-25 Fertilizer with Barricade Herbicide
And 7-0-1 greene up from next with prodmine and neighbors are asking me what the heck did I do so far .
It did work really well! I’m glad to hear you’re off to a great start too. My first fertilizer app is going down this upcoming weekend.
@@lakehouselawncare1755 just threw down some Andersons 46-0-0. Going to take a 6 week granular break. Let spoon feeding commence
Is this suggestion for Bermuda grass as well in Texas ? I being mowing 2 inch high once a week.
Yes, your Bermuda will thicken up and spread laterally with frequent mowing. Thanks for watching, Jose!
Is this the Sox year?
The Sox definitely have the hitting but their pitching is a little suspect. Thanks for watching, buddy!
Great video .. I never seen that mower before .. whats the name
Thank you, Gregory. It’s called a Toro Greensmaster. They are used for golf courses to cut the greens and tee boxes.
@@lakehouselawncare1755 nice just wanted to know .. I love out side work .. I want to know all the info .. by me practicing and maintain in my yard.. I ended up have 4 yards I do on my block alone $$$.. it also forced me to upgrade My tools the hand blower tired into a backpack blower.. then echo commercial weed eater .. I have a self propelled lawn mower. I was looking in to the timemaster 30 inch .. and also I had electric hedge trimmer for my home had to get the echo long neck .. it been one season since I gotten them . It's starting to be to much for me.. im up for the challenge 🤣🤣 I'm watching ur other video now. U explaining everything I just said thanks 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
What’s the name of that mower?
It’s a Toro Greensmaster 1000. It’s made to mow golf course greens. They are very expensive but I bought mine broken down and missing parts and brought it back to life. Thanks for watching, James!
What type of grass you have
I have a mix of perennial ryegrass and Kentucky blue grass. I seeded two large areas where we used to have trees with Barenbrug regenerating perennial ryegrass. Thanks for watching and commenting!
How do you train your lawn to get that low?
I slowly adjusted the height of cut lower and lower throughout an entire season with my rotary mower. Took it from 3 inches down to 1 inch then started cutting it with the reel mower.
@@lakehouselawncare1755 does the grass need to be really healthy to survive in the heat that low? With not a lot of grass blade to soak up the sun.
@@DRTOLLZ it definitely takes more TLC to keep it thriving throughout the summertime. I irrigate it with nutrient-rich water from our lake, which really helps too.
Do you use any PGRs?
No I never have. It would probably save me a lot of time mowing though.

collab with Connor Ward!
Connor is a cool guy. I would do that for sure! Thanks is for watching and commenting, Tyler!
What's a TIP JOB? 🙂
😂 a little game of just the tip.
“Go Go White SoX’s”
Yeah buddy!! Go Sox!
Nice Cher music for a lawn care video. Typical for a White Sox guy.
😂😂 thanks for Chering your comment.
