You should add the iron first prior to the urea, reason being is that when the urea is added to the water the reaction lowers the water temperature, and like you said, higher temp water will allow the iron to disolve better. I just added 3.5 lbs of 46% urea to 1 gallon of water. Water temperature went from 92 degrees to 50 degrees. If you ever played sports as a kid and was injured, the instant cold packs that are used are made of urea and water. Great video! Thanks 😃
@@2glhudson low end is 10-11 oz of DEF per gallon of water. 1 gallon of mixture per 1000 sq ft. The jackpot micro nutrients is 1 oz per gallon. The PGR I use is .3 oz per gallon.
@@CrazyManwich Thank you. Now to figure out the sprayer once it arrives. It has a variable psi adjustment. I’ll probably start off with psi adjuster turned down a 1/4 the way or even half way to make sure I don’t over add it the mixture.
Super Tech brand Diesel Exhaust Fluid from Walmart is $10 for 2.5 gallons. That stuff is just water and urea with an analysis of 15-0-0. I have yet to find liquid chelated iron from a big box store but you can get granulated ironite.
If you use the granule iron with a spreader, the iron will last longer. I spread it four times a year and to keep that grass greener longer, you have to cut it higher. The lower you cut, less green color and won't last as long, I'm in Southwest Florida.
For real, I spend hours every day keeping my lawn nice and low, and green, neighbors on both sides have nutsedge and crab grass and 4 inch tall Bermuda and it drives me up a wall
You know your stuff brother!! Live in Stuart Florida my whole life. Been doing this trade for a living going on 18 years now And with that being said you teach me new things every video I watch of yours!! Props on your knowledge and thanks for sharing it with us
Idea for a video: What if you tested in a small area and did almost everything "wrong" when spring seeding? - Plant now instead of earlier in the spring - Don't pre-germinate - Use KBG instead of rye of fescue - Don't work seed into the soil or apply a top dressing - Don't use any preemergents or starter fertilizer Basically just lay the seed down and keep up with watering and that's it. Maybe even compare to another path where everything was done right. Then compare in early summer to see how they are both doing.
I may do a different version of what you're saying here. I appreciate the suggestion. Please leave more suggestions for videos if you have them. I'm always open to ideas!! Thanks man!
So 3 questions, is it better to spray the cocktail after Mowing?! how often you have to spray it !? And last , is it better to water it right after or wait 24 hrs to let it soak ?! Thanks , great info !👍🏼
Yes, after mowing would be best. You can spray this cocktail once every 4 weeks if using pgr. If not, every 2 will be fine. After 4 hours of sitting on the leaf blade you can wash it off. Thanks for watching!
Thanks for the video. Will be doing this. A few questions…..how often should I be doing this? What is that lawnmower you’re using? Last, do you cut the grass that short when it’s really hot? If you do why doesn’t it burn up? If watering is your answer, how mush water?
Thanks bro. For this experience, it’s awesome! I guess you like your grass low! It’s apparently! You said it! 5/8 of an inch. It’s golf course grass for sure. I guess you practically play you golf every day if you want to!!! 🤩👍
Pest & Lawn Ginja on UA-cam has also said in one of his Productions that the post-mortem of the examined sample if lawns afflicted with fungal infections, too much Urea was used in each case. I'm just notifying.... Most everything I have purchased in the past before finding this out has Urea in it to keep the cost down.
What mower do you use and what attachment do you have to get the nice lines on your lawn? Do you cut up and down then diagonally the next cut? What’s your pattern method throughout the year?
As Monty Python was in search of the Holy Grail I'm in search of getting a dark green lawn: FOR YEARS! And I try to keep it at 3-inches in an attempt to fend off pests and weeds and funguses. You are the first introduce me to PGR so I'll have to look into it. ====================== In your situation with growing the grass so short, would you be better off treating your grass like a golf course or a soil that's very Sandy where you reduce the quantity supplied at a given time but you make more applications in the same calendar span of days.
Impressive lawn .Thanks for your ideas,people will have a beautiful lawn full of green soon, I like you video. Just for who need SEBOSS hardware cloth,1/2,1/4 opening ,19 GA, Hot dip galvanized after welding, double galvanized, strong and sturdy, delicate and beautiful, suitable as gopher wire, protect lawn/garden from all kinds of gophers.
I have been using ammonium sulfate, Iron and trinexepac ethyl for 2 years now.The dark green result is absolutely real. Btw, chelate is pronounced "kee-late" not "chee-late" Also, if you have the time, apply iron weekly. My front lawn is only 1,500 sq ft so I apply iron weekly at a lower rate. It keeps the color much better even when cutting under 1".
Thanks for that, I actually looked up how to say it before the video and youtube lied to me. Should've used the American dictionary instead 😂. I want to try ams but my pH is low as it is. Maybe one day for fun. I hear it does great greening up the grass! Thanks for tuning in!
I was thinking of mixing 3 liquids together, 2 ounces of DEF, 2 ounces of Magnesium Sulfate, and 2 ounces of Chelated Iron per gallon of water. Any thoughts or suggestions would be appreciated on amounts and combinations I plan on using. Maybe adding a Surfactant and Green Dye to this too.
I've used everything known to man,Scott's Max,Ironite, I guess I haven't tried your way,but the darkest my grass ever got was when I used Scott's Natural lawn food.Was totally not what I was after,just got a deal at 4.50 a bag and so I bought all they had.I put it down and two weeks later it was the darkest of green I'd ever seen it.Havent used it since the last bag was gone,for some reason it's hard to find around here and my goal at the moment isn't the color.Like I said it was just dumb luck ,but it was so dark I figured it was worth mentioning.
Its been hitting the high 100s here..now the rule is can only water twice a week....15 mnts😑my grass looks completley yellow...its depressing..cant wait tontry thos method💪🏽👌🏽👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼❤thanks a lot for sharing 🤠
I refer you to a published study done by Michigan State on iron for turf management. I suggest you read the 10 page pdf before you continue to push iron on the typical residential lawn. Iron became an issue when regulators began limiting random dumping of high nitrogen fertilizers and golf course managers were trying to figure out how to green up grass growing on crappy sandy soil lacking in micronutrients. Iron truly only works in a very specific set of cultural conditions and is not readily absorbed by grass unless it is in a specific ionic state and with a specific pH. Even if you hit that mark the green up is short lived and temporary. Most likely your green up is due to highly soluble nitrogen salts. The bottom line is there is absolutely no reason to push your lawn with iron unless you are rocking a putting green and dumping iron on your soil could lead to iron toxicity in time since iron is very very immobile in the soil. If you do a soil test I’m willing to bet that iron is not lacking so why add an over abundance? Regulators have already banned phosphorus fertilizers in many states around the Chesapeake bay. Florida has enacted similar fertilizer bans. Continued spread of misinformation hurts everyone. Most homeowners have no clue what they are doing and buy whatever Joe Tattoo at Home Depot can fit in the car. I for one do not want to see people dumping tons of ironite around me because you say it “greens” the lawn or whatever. Having a decent lawn is tough enough without the need for more confusion
I have the same chapin motorized sprayer, love it. Sounds like you calculated 1000 Sq ft per gallon on yours. I've done many tests with mine and mine covers 500 Sq ft per gallon. Did you put a different spray head on yours?
So, with these ratios, you spread 3 1/2 gallons liquid over 1,000 sq. feet. That's a lot of water to apply in 2,000/ I have a Chapman backpack sprayer and only ever used it for Prodiamine pre emergent. Can you confirm? THUMBS UP!!!
Thanks Thomas! But no, you don't want to water in or get rained on for at least 4 hours. If you're not going to water in at all, I would use around 0.1 to 0.15 lbs of N to remove the risk of tip burn on your grass. Let me know if you want me to explain this a little more
Does the feature really not stain concrete at all? I know it says it on the bag, but I’m wondering if you have oversprayed at all? I picked some up last year and have yet to try it. I’m just curious how careful I should be on my sidewalk edges. Thanks!
I've hit my concrete before and it definitely has not stained. But I'm not out there over spraying on it, on purpose. I still try to be careful around it.
Michael Dunagan I’ve never had issues, but I am always extra careful. The label for this product just has bold lettering stating that it “will not stain concrete” so I was curious if he had found that to be true.
Ive watch a few of your videos and I have learned a lot and have a plan on making my grass look better. But i think if we were dads in the same neighborhood I would have to settle for 2nd best and fight you in a different way. Probably in BBQ.
It's been a brutal 27 years since I fell in love with them...and somehow I still bleed purple and gold 😂.. I hear you watch a few games here and there..
After watching this video, I bought some chelated iron, from Southern AG. I’m not sure but I have applied it twice and see very if any results. I even tried doubling the amount and still no results. Any advice? Did you water it in ? If so how long did you wait to water it
I tried granular on its own and it unfortunately did nothing. But I also used it on its own in Aug with the other treatments done earlier in the season, so perhaps it needs to be used in conjunction with other treatment
I have not actually experienced iron staining. I've seen a few neighbors that have though and it's pretty ugly. I have not tried that product and don't know much about it.
I didn't see this question through a quick browse, so... You mention nitrogen/urea as your first ingredient, but you linked citric acid. Are they the same?
We live in Tennessee and are going through a dry spell where fescue is going dormant. Is there a time when you can and cannot apply the solution? Thank you!
If your grass is going dormant you don't want to apply anything. You only want to apply this cocktail when the grass is healthy and actively growing. Good luck with this drought. Everyone is going through it, it seems like!
pgr comes in big bottles for golf course owners..the home owner wants a small bottle..however its the super cheap iron making the lawn green..pgr isnt doing a thing for colour
Haha. Thanks man. It's a northern suburb of the twin cities in Minnesota. It's an awesome community...other than everyone thinking I'm a psycho about my yard. They get really weirded out when I bring out the cameras lol
@@LAWNLIFE thanks for the reply. How long will the deep color last? Will it only last for a couple weeks, or longer? Is this something you do multiple times a year? In the Midwest when is the best time to do it?
I’m trying to find FEature with no luck.. where can I buy it? I currently use Lesco Chelated iron mixed in with my PGR, but everyone raves about FEature. Thanks for the info and great video.
i-want-feature.square.site/ I usually put all the product links I use in the description for future reference. Thanks for checking it out man! Also, if your water pH is high, I would suggest putting in some citric acid in your mix or you wont get very good results with feature. If you check out my "Cheapest Fertilizer" video, I explain how to do all of that.
@@LAWNLIFE thank you! After your video late last night I stumbled upon that site luckily and ordered a bunch. Should last me a few seasons in case I can’t get anymore in the future.
Love the video. I’m using T-nex for the first time this year. Any problem with high temperatures applying this application? I was not going to add water soluble or liquid nitrogen to this concoction. Just iron and PGR. It’s in the mid to upper 90s in NC this week. My lawn is extremely healthy right now, though. Water it in afterwards? Love the video. Cheers, Hunter
You're good in the high heat with t-nex. You're going to want to let that and the iron sit on the grass blades for 4 hours and then you can water it in. Thanks for watching man. You're can throw in a small amount of nitrogen if you want. 0.2 lbs of N per k or less otherwise you have to worry about burn.
@@LAWNLIFE thanks, brother. You are new to my following channels. LCN, Pete, Ron, and even Doc, but that dude is pushing The Andersons, and getting paid to much. . Love the DIY channels. Carry on. Thanks so much. Cheers, H
@@mhuntercorrell that's great company to be in with. I appreciate the sub and I really try to be as honest with everything as possible.. let me know if you have any other questions!
I’m trying to get out of the restaurant business after almost 30 years, and my passion is turf. My son will be going to college in 3 years, and we are ready to go do us. The wife has a great job, and I’m ready to do what I enjoy after a long 2 years in NC.
Thanks for all of your videos, I have watched a bunch. You have given me the courage to try doing my own lawn (32k sq/ft) and I jumped in by getting a tow behind sprayer. I just ordered Urea from Amazon and it was suppose to be 46-0-0 but what arrived was a commercial grade 50lb bag that says Urea ..... 98.7% and it doesn't have any instructions on the bag, just a warning label. I also ordered PGR and FEature Iron following your suggestion. I think I heard that if I put .2lbs or less of N down, that I don't need to water it in. Is this correct? Also, because this is 98.7% Urea, does that change anything as long as I am using the formula (.14 lbs / .987 = .1418 of a lb per 1K sq ft)? Then I will have the 6% of N in the FEature which should bring me to .2 lbs per 1k? Did I get that right? Thank you for all your help!
@@LAWNLIFE thelawnwhisperer.net/products/midnight-12-0-0-liquid-fertilizer-with-5-chelated-iron-1-gallon Here is a decently priced option. The cost per lb of iron is just a little higher than FEature.

Tenacity plus speed zone will knock down pretty much anything.
Idea for a video: What if you tested in a small area and did almost everything "wrong" when spring seeding?
- Plant now instead of earlier in the spring
- Don't pre-germinate
- Use KBG instead of rye of fescue
- Don't work seed into the soil or apply a top dressing

We live in Tennessee and are going through a dry spell where fescue is going dormant. Is there a time when you can and cannot apply the solution? Thank you!
If your grass is going dormant you don't want to apply anything. You only want to apply this cocktail when the grass is healthy and actively growing. Good luck with this drought. Everyone is going through it, it seems like!
pgr comes in big bottles for golf course owners..the home owner wants a small bottle..however its the super cheap iron making the lawn green..pgr isnt doing a thing for colour
PGR definitely makes your color darker green. I've done plenty of research on this. Plenty of articles/studies on this.
I was trying to concentrate on the grass but I love the neighborhood. Where is that at?
Haha. Thanks man. It's a northern suburb of the twin cities in Minnesota. It's an awesome community...other than everyone thinking I'm a psycho about my yard. They get really weirded out when I bring out the cameras lol
@@LAWNLIFE beautiful lawn.. I struggle with mine all year round.. I’m in Miami and we have 100 degrees 365 days a year….
Beautiful .
Should you mow before or after spraying? I realize you mowed after, but ideally which is better for the lawn?
You need to mow after to allow the plant to take in everything you've sprayed on it.
@@LAWNLIFE thanks for the reply. How long will the deep color last? Will it only last for a couple weeks, or longer? Is this something you do multiple times a year? In the Midwest when is the best time to do it?
Thanks good video!
I’m trying to find FEature with no luck.. where can I buy it? I currently use Lesco Chelated iron mixed in with my PGR, but everyone raves about FEature. Thanks for the info and great video.

I usually put all the product links I use in the description for future reference. Thanks for checking it out man! Also, if your water pH is high, I would suggest putting in some citric acid in your mix or you wont get very good results with feature. If you check out my "Cheapest Fertilizer" video, I explain how to do all of that.
@@LAWNLIFE thank you! After your video late last night I stumbled upon that site luckily and ordered a bunch. Should last me a few seasons in case I can’t get anymore in the future.
@@AUav8r05 awesome! I actually know the guy who sells it. He's a good dude. Let me know if you have any other questions!
Great Job
Love the video. I’m using T-nex for the first time this year. Any problem with high temperatures applying this application? I was not going to add water soluble or liquid nitrogen to this concoction. Just iron and PGR. It’s in the mid to upper 90s in NC this week. My lawn is extremely healthy right now, though. Water it in afterwards? Love the video. Cheers, Hunter
You're good in the high heat with t-nex. You're going to want to let that and the iron sit on the grass blades for 4 hours and then you can water it in. Thanks for watching man. You're can throw in a small amount of nitrogen if you want. 0.2 lbs of N per k or less otherwise you have to worry about burn.
@@LAWNLIFE thanks, brother. You are new to my following channels. LCN, Pete, Ron, and even Doc, but that dude is pushing The Andersons, and getting paid to much. . Love the DIY channels. Carry on. Thanks so much. Cheers, H
@@mhuntercorrell that's great company to be in with. I appreciate the sub and I really try to be as honest with everything as possible.. let me know if you have any other questions!
@@LAWNLIFE no doubt. Lawn geeks love to feed off of experience and truth. Thx, brother. And you are in what state? I’m here in NC.
I’m trying to get out of the restaurant business after almost 30 years, and my passion is turf. My son will be going to college in 3 years, and we are ready to go do us. The wife has a great job, and I’m ready to do what I enjoy after a long 2 years in NC.
Great video
Grea vide buddy!!!! If use only urea can get a dark green?????
I am the neighbor across the street. I have my own cocktail for my lawn. I will never share my secret muahahahahaha
Are you in the Midwest? i ask for climate reasons I'm in Cincinnati Ohio (City Limits) grass here grow difererent than other cities.
Yes I'm in Minnesota. I have a cool season lawn
Thanks for all of your videos, I have watched a bunch. You have given me the courage to try doing my own lawn (32k sq/ft) and I jumped in by getting a tow behind sprayer.
I just ordered Urea from Amazon and it was suppose to be 46-0-0 but what arrived was a commercial grade 50lb bag that says Urea ..... 98.7% and it doesn't have any instructions on the bag, just a warning label. I also ordered PGR and FEature Iron following your suggestion.
I think I heard that if I put .2lbs or less of N down, that I don't need to water it in. Is this correct? Also, because this is 98.7% Urea, does that change anything as long as I am using the formula (.14 lbs / .987 = .1418 of a lb per 1K sq ft)? Then I will have the 6% of N in the FEature which should bring me to .2 lbs per 1k? Did I get that right? Thank you for all your help!
Email me at lawnlifewithjesse@gmail.com and let's figure everything out before you spray. I want to make sure you get this right
@@LAWNLIFE Thank you
Thank you for explaining
How often can you put this cocktail on your lawn ? Thanks Craig.
Hey Craig, for PGR you only want to put it down once every 4 weeks. Iron and Urea can go down bi-weekly. Let me know if you have any other questions!
Will the iron work on scalped grass?
Can you please let us know what urea product you’re using!!! Thanksss!!!
How long does the lawn stay a darker green?
What about the plant growth regulator, will it stunt trees? Thx for the video!
Don't think there's even close to enough being applied to stunt tree growth
What are your thoughts on just buying a chelated iron liquid product rather than a powder? That would seem to help with the sediment/dissolving issue.
It's gonna cost a lot more money being premixed. If you can find a cost effective product it wouldn't be a bad way to go
@@LAWNLIFE thelawnwhisperer.net/products/midnight-12-0-0-liquid-fertilizer-with-5-chelated-iron-1-gallon Here is a decently priced option. The cost per lb of iron is just a little higher than FEature.
