Mate you must be the busiest bloke out at the moment haha got the kids on the go and the little one and the lawn reno... Keep up the awesome work mate...
Never thought I'd ever care about lawns, just turned 30 and bought my first home now i understand why a lot of guys care so much, love seeing the results after a mow, now i want a more healthier looking lawn 😅
Don’t ever think that your videos are too long. I know that they’re probably a pain in the ass to edit, but you could chuck up daily 40 minute videos of you just doing landscaping and yard work and we would watch it. You know your stuff mate, thanks for taking the time to teach your lawn wisdom 🧙♂️
You're giving that lawn exactly what it needed. No doubt it'll look great in a month or so. Just got done core aerating my lawn with a 25" Clausen Powerseer and it felt like it ran me over when I got finished. Maybe next year I'll go with the stand on stinger for a few extra bones.
I came out in a cold sweat when you started scalping Ben Lol, obviously it needed it and what a great job. Being able to use the wee tractor rather than barrow must be so much easier too. Great video and the wee pup loves the sand too.
From the UK so these grasses you have are new to me. Petrified watching you rip into it so deep 😮 A little like using a koro topmaker with the scalp. But our grasses would never return without an overseed. Great vid 👍
Ahhh satisfying! Been looking forward to this. That scalping mower was absolutely slammed, maybe they should put air ride on them so you can lay the frame on the ground with a flick of a switch 🤔
This really works! I recently did a cut-down version of this process on my Kikuyu and 4 weeks later bang it is so good it's popping. Best it's ever been. Will do it once a year.
Top job , I did mine about 4 weeks ago and I was keen to see you manoeuvre the aerating machine , it’s a back breaker , not sure if it was the fast forward footage but you made it look easy !!!
Great vid mate! Love it yew! can't wait to get my reno on! just holding out until we get some warmer weather! its been soo cool down in Adelaide hills, SA.
Thanks for the vid...going to look awesome...Lot of work made easier with all that machinery...Some waste concrete blocks from your local batching plant make good bunkers to store your sands and soils...
For Core plugs, if the soil is dry enough, put your mulch plug in the mower, and mulch them in to the lawn, for a redistribution of the material back into the lawn.
Howzit. Did you watch the game last Saturday with the fam? What a game! Anyhoo...great vid, yet again. Can't remember, did you put down Acelepryn already, or now a good time with reno?
Man I love your vids. Been watching you for a long time now. I wish I had all the toys bro. But just wondering why you can’t use your tractor bucket to spread the sand instead of hand shoveling everything. I’m sure there’s a reason. I’m a fescue guy that has a patch of Bermuda that I’m really wanting to topdress and cut lower if possible. Keep up the good work big guy.
I am reno-ing my 100m2 1 Year Old Kikuyu with Electric mower and Bi-weekly Compost Bin lol (from 10-15cm). Looking at all these equipment has been triggering :D. Hoping to see some part of the property done with limited domestic equipments, but these videos are very informative and satisfying. Keep up the great work!
Great content Ben, I'll save this one to do a mini Reno later, I like how it's easy to follow, great vid mate. I need to get the retaining wall in first though.
@Lawn Tips Would you say it's better to mow lawns first before scarifying? At our work, we have been scarifying first, then mowing down on second lowest level (collecting all the thatch with push mowers). Once that's done we do a second run over on the lowest setting on the mowing height to scalp it. What do you think? Our turf is Santa Ana variety.
Hi Ben great vid, can you explain the difference between flail blades and the verticut blades you use when dethatching a lawn and why you would use each one? cheers
Hey Ben! Aussie follower here. Is it just me or do we not have electric scarifiers/ dethatchers available for small home use? Can't find anything except an overpriced Ryobi.
If I am just scarrifying with no top dress, how important is it to get seed down quickly? Will the dirt start to close up in a few days or weeks? Loving this series !
Mate you must be the busiest bloke out at the moment haha got the kids on the go and the little one and the lawn reno...
Keep up the awesome work mate...
Haha definitely keeping busy
@@LawnTips hey mate, how thick can you go with tif tuf ? :) awesome vid !
@@xavierguthrie3358 tif tuf is couch and he said you can go this thick with couch and kikuyu
Long videos are way better. 20-25min like a TV episode is more enjoyable and puts the steps together on a project.
Appreciate the extra editing etc work to make the longer vids too!
X3
I love how your puppy is running around having the time of his life! Great vid as always!
Hell yeah, dad just made a beach for me! This is the life!
my cats would think i made them a huge litter box and just poop in it
Never thought I'd ever care about lawns, just turned 30 and bought my first home now i understand why a lot of guys care so much, love seeing the results after a mow, now i want a more healthier looking lawn 😅
hope this gets you motivated Stu
Thanks Mitch
Just like the council, 3 drops of rain on a newspaper and it’s pull up stumps for the day.
Soz not Soz
1 drop of rain on a tally ho and it's good buy renderers
That pup stole the show! Haha love it
learnt heaps bro
What a guy! Sandpit in the front yard for the kids. 👌
Wow I’m uk based and had a diy go using 2 ton 50/50 over 330sqm perennial ryegrass and thought I was being generous !!!!!
Soundtrack is on point!
Kikuyu baby! Woooooooooooo! The time has come! So good to see the renno kick off 👍
I have a short haired brown dachshund name schnitzel aswell from the same book, classic
Can't wait to see the end result...
Coring was the best thing I did for my shopping lawn. Almost zero water run off and no more dead patches in summer
Don't get me wrong, I'm here for the reno but mate, loving the Synth vibes on the music
YES BEN! we need more drone footage from above. looks great!
love you videos, when i get the bell notification i get excited
Job well done!
How could someone dislike this video love the videos can’t wait to see the end
Never thought a 22 year old would be so excited to watch a lawn getting renovated 😅
I dream of a gator, tractor, and a ride on mower one day!! I can still live in hope! haha.
This man is a serious hard worker great job BTW 👍👍👍👍
Tunes on point once again 👌🏼
Quality vid. Nice shots. Awesome content. 👍
Ben, y’all have 12 acres and you got the tiniest dog ever 😂 super cute though. Those ears 😍
Great video. Don't worry about the length. Really enjoyed it.

I watched a few of these videos the other day, and started saying “gday mate, welcome to another lawn tip vid” 🤦🏻♂️😂
Thank you for explaining the sand. That was one of my biggest questions. I know what to ask for now and how to sus it out. 👍
Love the drone shots
Can't believe you did that top dress by yourself.
I did 150sqm and was cooked.
I reckon that kik will take 6 weeks to really break through.
Loving these longer videos!
Worth the wait, also i enjoy these longer videos
Loving the ear protection! You are having too much fun, thanks for sharing it with us
Aww yeah boi!! It’s kik time baby, yeww! 🤌
You're giving that lawn exactly what it needed. No doubt it'll look great in a month or so. Just got done core aerating my lawn with a 25" Clausen Powerseer and it felt like it ran me over when I got finished. Maybe next year I'll go with the stand on stinger for a few extra bones.
Loved that Vid mate 💚 Awesome Work 👍
Is a good work, the grass is better.😁
11:29 When I go to Palm Springs Ca. they will scalp the lawn just like that in the fall and reseed with a rye grass for the winter.
I came out in a cold sweat when you started scalping Ben Lol, obviously it needed it and what a great job. Being able to use the wee tractor rather than barrow must be so much easier too. Great video and the wee pup loves the sand too.
hmmm, i need that ride on

Loved the longer vid keep up the great work champion you’ll land yourself a tv gig one of these days offer is still out there for as an off sider
Awesome stuff man, loving little Schnitty in the vids 😂 I can’t wait to see you cylinder mowing again 👍
Hell yeah! Been waiting for this vid!
Great work Ben, wow that lawn level did a really good job on such a thick layer of sand!
Nicki Minaj is jealous at how thick that top dress is 👍🏼
😂
Love it!! I’ve been looking forward to this video since you moved in!
drone shots are unreal
Ripper vid mate 👍
Getting me keen to do mine now! 🤣
Yesssss been waiting for this badboy a while now. Cant wait to see the progression. Sick job Benny boy
Awesome vid. I have 1.5acres and your vids since moving have been really informative as I’m dealing with a bunch of mongrel grass. Love it!
Nothing better to Reno then walk out with the next machine to find the snag digging holes in the fresh Reno 🤣 snags are the best 🤣
Renoooo time. Can’t wait to see how she turns out mate !
Awesome video mate!
I think you broke the 1/3 rd rule there buddy.lol
I love this channel so much. Keep it up, and you’ll keep growing. Much love
Man the lawn is gonna look so good
That callaway hat
This really works! I recently did a cut-down version of this process on my Kikuyu and 4 weeks later bang it is so good it's popping. Best it's ever been. Will do it once a year.
Your dog is so cute
Love a Bluebird workout “Maaaan” they sux! 🤣😂🤣😂
So bad bro, woke up the next morning with a kinked neck 😂
Awesome vid mate.
Love this channel well done mate!
Wish you uploaded this 3weeks ago when I did my Reno on zoysia. Oh well next year will be better
Top job , I did mine about 4 weeks ago and I was keen to see you manoeuvre the aerating machine , it’s a back breaker , not sure if it was the fast forward footage but you made it look easy !!!
I'm petrified you're gonna run over your dog mate lol 👌 All the best my son.
you're so cute with the dog in the arm like circa 2001 Paris lol. great job on the lawn :)
Brilliant, lots of good advice thanks
If its possible can you run through the next steps, fertiliser and so on. Also update vids would be sick
Do more landscape blade cam vids please I loved that
Great vid mate! Love it yew! can't wait to get my reno on! just holding out until we get some warmer weather! its been soo cool down in Adelaide hills, SA.
Mate you got a lot of gear!! YT must be paying the bills pretty well👍 keep up the good work
Luckily all the John Deere stuff is sponsored!
Lawn Tips ahh righto , nice one man I’ve been following u for a while, your doing great!
Thanks for the vid...going to look awesome...Lot of work made easier with all that machinery...Some waste concrete blocks from your local batching plant make good bunkers to store your sands and soils...
Great video mate. Really look forward to your updates!! Brilliant project and great piece of land to work on over coming years.
2mm corrugated sand works well
Also when you do the larger Reno’s you should buy a towable lawn level or a drag to spread that sand
Nice to see an actual Lawn Tip Vid.
You know, about lawns (not a property). I like your property, but I’m here for the LAWN TIPS!
For Core plugs, if the soil is dry enough, put your mulch plug in the mower, and mulch them in to the lawn, for a redistribution of the material back into the lawn.
Howzit. Did you watch the game last Saturday with the fam? What a game!
Anyhoo...great vid, yet again. Can't remember, did you put down Acelepryn already, or now a good time with reno?
Nice Ben Sims.
👌👌👌
could you show close up of your top dress mix
Man I love your vids. Been watching you for a long time now. I wish I had all the toys bro.

This video is amazing, keep up the great work!
I’m feening for a new video.
Can you give us more information about how we can re plant the scarifyings to create new lawn. Cheers

Last Aussie 😁. All happening at the Lawn Ranch 🤠
Reel mower is best in these types of jobs
Watched this a year ago when i last done this. I definitely need a core, i watch the water run off downnthe hill ontop of the grass.

you got the big gun a stihl

I just picked up the electric 2.5hp Sawmi unit - seems pretty good!
I might should start a Crossfit: Warm Season Lawn Renovation gym. My students would get results for sure
😂😂

Watching from Davenport Iowa USA 🇺🇸. John Deere is on strike,hope you don't need parts anytime soon
