I used to work for a cable Co. just give them a call and request for some conduit to be installed. most decent plant managers will dispatch a tech. we had to do stuff like that all the time. 5 min call and you and Frankie are all the better!!
Lawn is coming in nicely. Thanks for showing that even with all your knowledge and hard work it doesn't always end up perfect every time. Always a work in progress. Great vid
I love this dude lol so laid back. Thank you for the time you put into making these videos, and thank you also for your service to this country. PEACE from ATL by way of NC born and bred!
Allen i knew exactly where you were going with those plugs! Great idea!!!! I will have to try that with my yard. I lite up a good cigar before I watch every new video you upload, almost like we share them together while I watch your great work. keep it up! I would love to see more reel mower action!
Just planted bermuda in some bare patches in my back yard and front yard. Fun to watch you then go and watch my yard! Ready for this alpha-grass to spread!
And thank you very much Mr Hayne! Because of you I now know what Nutsedge looks like. And I found some in my yard today 😬 A week ago I would have walked on by thinking happy thoughts and singin show tunes or dance 💃🏼 numbers to myself BUT NOOOOOOOOO! You had to educate me so now I'm miserable and have to do something about it. Thanks a lot Pal!
I've been thinking this for awhile now, but I would love to hear you bust out your old music on the shots of you working. Just something about that tune makes me want to mow.
I just started watching your vids today (this is my 5th). From some of your comments, I just _knew_ you had to be a fellow Trek fan...but the Spock reference here totally confirmed it. Also: A+ for the Major Payne reference, too.
When plugging the damaged area, why didn't you just pull the weeded areas, and then backfill with good Bermuda? I would think it would reduce your chemical costs. Instead you opted to remove areas with dirt, and then left the areas with weeds you sprayed.
Hane, your videos are awesome and you should start making more videos per week. I know what you do right now is great, bit you should make some update videos that are quick every couple of days. Even if they are just 3-5 minutes that would be awesome because I can't wait for the next episode. lol thanks.
I have a question about when to cut new grass. We sowed grass seed, fescue (TN) close to 3 weeks ago and after a good 2 days of rain, I am finally seeing sprouts! YAY! The miracle of rain vs watering. Anyhow, I just spotted that we have about 1 1/2 of grass seed sprouts. When should we start to mow. Staying off the area 2 weeks or just start mowing it 2x a week?
Quick question, I'm in SoCal, and I think I've inherited (new house) a lawn of Fescue... and I want to get Bermuda going because, well, it makes more sense in SoCal. Can I just overseed? Should I crop the Fescue down super low before seeding?
As a teen starting a lawn care business, what do you recommend me to offer to my customers? Should I buy an aerator? What all can I do without being licensed? How old do you have to be to get a license and how do you get one? And then being licensed what all does that allow you to do?
Hello Lawn Care Nut, Can you tell me the name of the transplanting tool you used to transfer soil from your grass farm area to your bare area? I would like to purchase one of those tools, since it's not practical for me to purchase the full size machine.
apparently the wire is safe to touch, you can tuck it up out of the way so you can at least trim around the pole. sometimes we have to take matters into our own hands.
Another good video LCN! I found your channel about 3 months ago and have gone through about your entire video collection, lots of good stuff. After being in my new house for a year, I have already gone through one growing season to see what the yard will do, and am ready to take control. I have centipede (Columbia, SC), do I really need to stay away from 2, 4-D for weeds with this type of grass?
@thelawncarenut could you make a video about you talking about how to take care of exposed tree roots i don't want to hide the roots by cutting them a little i have seen other videos where you can cut it down a bit, but i want to get rid of them completely out of the ground
Allyn! Big fan! It might snow up here in the transition zone (Virginia), what are your thoughts on the old wives tale about throwing cool season seed on top of snow for an overseed/reseed? Also, for those planning on spring seeding, what do you think about putting starter fert down before the snow hits so when the snow melts completely, the soil is a fertile hotbed, loaded with seed, ready to germinate.
The Lawn Care Nut ; So I'm looking into using the Milorganite for my lawn this coming season. I live in central Illinois and was just curious as to how I go about what schedule I should use for fertilizing. Also was wondering if this took care of taking care of weeds or if I needed to use something separate? Thanks I appreciate the opinions!
In my latest video I show my ugly lawn. I pulled weeds raked laid seeds and laid ant/ bug killer granular then watered but no mulch. could I temporarily lay wood mulch over the yard? So I'm trying to grow it back. It's in the 90s right now. Do you think I should grow a pot container of grass as a farm reserved? I probably will do that starting tomorrow
oh my gosh...i love your videos. you're the cutest:) i still feel like i have know idea what i'm dong with tthis lawn attept but, you are soooo very helpful! thanks Xo
So here is a question to you. In your last home where you seemed to dominate for years, how long did it take you to get that lawn to domination state? So far, and forgive me for this, florida seems to be kicking your ass so far. Now granted that you pretty much had to start from scratch, so I was wondering, what is the time frame you expect it to take for your lawn down there to dominate? I also have a lawn question for you about my lawn. My yard was overseeded with tall fescue last year and it looked pretty dang good. During the fall, I did a frakenlawn test with my back yard. I put down rye and let me tell you what, I have the best looking lawn back there (with the fescue starting to grow in with it, it looks like a plush carpet lol) compared to anyone. In fact I already have had to mow 4 times since February and thats highly unusual for around here. So my question is this, Im getting ready to overseed again with tall fescue. Im mowing at 3.5 inchs, should I take that down to about 2 inches before I seed again?
D. Cole as a long time resident of Florida...it is a lot harder to grow a nice lawn down here than most anywhere else. Extreme heat, sandy soil, bugs, excessive humidity....wish I could have those deep green perfect Midwest lawns down here but that's not gonna happen
yeah but you are not the lawn care nut who happens to be an expert in the field. Pretty much his entire channel has been about domination over your neighbors through knowledge. Im just trying to get a feel for his dominance timeline. See, not only is he in a new climate but he also started the grass off from scratch. I have been working on my lawn for a year now trying to get it fully dominate ready but I didnt kill off my lawn, im in stead taking a multi year approach with overseeding and more actual lawn care. This was the first year my lawn has seen grass seed or pretty much anything except mowing in at least 20 years and it already looks a 100% better, I cant even imagine how great its going to look in a few more years.
New home owner question, I recently put Bermuda seed in mid March in South TX (bordertown) all was going well until we had random cold fronts and got the temps at 50-55 at night. Now I notice some (not all) purple and brown. What should I do?! I put starter fertilizer earlier this month. It's warmer now and am hoping it comes back to it's green self
Those utility companies do dome odd things.. I found phone and TV cable laying on the ground in weeds up to your waist and only stapled to a post to keep it from getting ripped out of their box. A decent install will use some plastic pipe at ground level to protect the cable, but most do not take the time because most utilities use contractors for a new service install.
What are the 2 pieces of equipment used.... the one that was torching the drivway weeds early on and the one at the end that cored out & replaced the grass patches?
Yes, but as the season changes, let it get taller. If it's fescue, longer in summer shades the base of the plant and keeps dark color. Basically 3"-3.5" Spring/Fall, 3.5"-4" Summer. First and last mows of season 3".
How often can you put down milorganite? I live in Arkansas with warm humid weather. I’ve been having a company spray my lawn for the last few years and I think it’s time I start doing it myself because I have the same pesky weeds coming back after they spray.
My lawn is a complete and total mess. I live in Northern Virginia and didn't aerate during the fall. Can I aerate this spring to promote growth? I see that you recommend fertilizing not aerate. We have fescue grass here in Northern Virginia. Any assistance you can provide is appreciated.
I see where you listed the name of the tool you used. Has that tool always worked as seamless as it looks in the video? I'm asking because the reviews on Amazons website weren't too great in some areas.
I was away while my grass planted all the large rocks weren't picked up the grass has grown about 3 weeks if I pick them up now will I kill the grass underneath
hello from cold Syracuse NY. Question on how to level a bumpy lawn. I get a lot of ant hills in the summer. little tiny brown ants and they leave small softball sized hills and leaves the grass bumpy. Also it seems my lawn is loaded with fleas as my 6 tiny dogs seem to get fleas even though they are on flea meds all year long. So whats the best product to kill ants and fleas and to level my lawn. I mow with a 900lbs zero turn and still dont level the dirt.
Would it be beneficial to do your bermuda plugs with longer unmowed grass? My thinking is just that the more greenery up on top of the plant, the more it is able to support new root growth into it's new home soil. I just know many garden plants prefer to be transplanted when they have full green growth going so I was wondering if this isn't also true of bermuda grass. It may be a detail that doesn't matter though.
What post-emergent should I use on perennial rye? It's not listed as a tolerant grass for the Blindside. I have Tenacity in the shed. Should I stick with that?
Allyn, are you going to use a manual, rotary mower, or gas powered? I'm in AZ and have the same problem with Bermuda. It's so thick due to overseed and Milo use that cutting below 2" just gives me burn marks by rotary blades.
I've had good results with SedgeHammer+ for getting rid of Nutsedge in a stand of Zoysia. It's expensive, but the other products I tried burned the Zoysia.
LCN - I just bought a newly built house in SC and my builder put down in bermuda sod in the front yard, they didn't do a great job laying it and theres tons of lines in between the pieces of sod. Is there a better way to fill in those holes than just putting seed down and a little bit of dirt in the cracks? Thanks huge fan!
good deal I just did that yesterday, mowed real low then threw down milorganite right before a good rain over night! Thanks for all the help and love your channel!
I want a supper flat lawn that I can mow supper low I currently have sun and shade mix grass by Scott's but can I mow burmuda lower ? like 1 inch or less
Allyn, I know you say to put the clippings back in the lawn but when i do that with my Marathon 2 grass it mats down chokes the grass and makes this hard web layer right above the soil and then nothing grows. What do i do? This is in southern california
FishFind3000 don't use food color trust me back in my high school days my fellow football buddies sprayed red and black food color my my folks grass and it stayed that way for long time...lol
I see you are using Blindside but you mentioned in a previous video that you preferred Celcius due to the residual effect. I bought Celcius based on the video now I wish I went with Blindside. Can you tell me why you went back to blindside?
they are both great. Blindside provides fast knockdown. Celsius a little slower but comes on much stronger if you have patience. Also remember I was up against mature doveweed. In that case, and I thought I was pretty clear about it, I def chose Celsius for that pest.
LCN: New viewer/homeowner with my own Frankenlawn: Should I be worried about the health effects of blindside other weedkillers? I have a dog who loves to eat grass and a new baby.
i live in illinois. the weather flucuates from 40's to 50's and 60's. my lawn has already green up for the most part. is it too early to apply crabgrass pre m
Not Allyn, but I can probably answer. A rotary will start to grab and pull on the stolons. A rotary also does not shear grass straight across. The whirling blade tears the tops off of the grass. A rotary will also find every single deviation in the ground and scalp in a circular pattern.
rey3472 thanks for that info, Rey. I had my suspicions that would be the case. So can you train Bermuda to be sub 2" with a rotary mower and not have scalping issues and return to a vibrant green color?
It can be done provided you keep the blade razor sharp before each mowing, ground has to be countertop flat, and you need to mow such that very little height is taken off at each mowing. If you are willing to do all of this religiously, it can work. Otherwise, a reel mower will be easier to manage.
KumarHD make a mulch ring would be easiest. Hard to get grass to grow under trees as roots are in constant competition. Roots showing also hurts that possibility.
I used to work for a cable Co. just give them a call and request for some conduit to be installed. most decent plant managers will dispatch a tech. we had to do stuff like that all the time. 5 min call and you and Frankie are all the better!!

keep the groovey music coming! It makes your productive entertaining.
You have Star Trek fans here! Can't wait for lawn season here in Ohio!
And thank you very much Mr Hayne! Because of you I now know what Nutsedge looks like. And I found some in my yard today 😬
A week ago I would have walked on by thinking happy thoughts and singin show tunes or dance 💃🏼 numbers to myself BUT NOOOOOOOOO! You had to educate me so now I'm miserable and have to do something about it. Thanks a lot Pal!
I've been thinking this for awhile now, but I would love to hear you bust out your old music on the shots of you working. Just something about that tune makes me want to mow.
That dig tool is really cool never seen that before ....I have two large dirt spots ..hopefully the seed grows
I just started watching your vids today (this is my 5th). From some of your comments, I just _knew_ you had to be a fellow Trek fan...but the Spock reference here totally confirmed it.

A suggestion. When pulling the plugs from the new area, put them a bucket or other receptacle to refill the holes left by the donor plugs.
Love the Major Payne reference!! I didn't think I could like LCN anymore... I do now!!!!!!
Living in near Tulsa, OK, that's all we have around. Love the Bermuda tips! You just got a new subscriber!
Looked so happy mowing low 🤘🏼🦩
Hane, your videos are awesome and you should start making more videos per week. I know what you do right now is great, bit you should make some update videos that are quick every couple of days. Even if they are just 3-5 minutes that would be awesome because I can't wait for the next episode. lol thanks.
Suggest you make A video. Then. you might understand the work involved
another great video dare I say UA-cam Emmy just here in Miami soaking up some rays while dominating lawns love your channel
Saw thumbnail. Clicked immediately. Winter(ish) in Chicago. Stuck inside. Back to my AvE vids. 😜
hahaha the small clip that was just the sneeze. Unnecessary but that's why it was funny. Keep it up!
Your videos are fresh and motivational!!!
Yard butler plug works really well...thanks LCN
Live long and prosper!
I don’t know what it is captain it might be the dilithium crystals or the Folgers crystals but it has a nice aroma after I sprayed
You need to get a sponsorship deal with Columbia clothing
Not exactly sure when you moved, but I hope you're sending them instructions on how to maintain your old lawn. Thanks for the videos

If you have a small amount of weeds in your lawn, would you recommend just pulling them instead of spraying with the blindside
apparently the wire is safe to touch, you can tuck it up out of the way so you can at least trim around the pole. sometimes we have to take matters into our own hands.
What is the dark blue dye that lets you know which weeds you've sprayed and which you might have missed?

The 'seeds' of the many, outweigh the 'seeds' of the few or the one ..
Especially when seeding a lawn ☺️
When It is young, it seems that life is so wonderful
A miracle, oh it is beautiful, magical....
Yesss the old tunes we are used to. 8:50 👍🏻
a few people have mentioned me bringing back the old music - I'll have to do that

LCN, how about throwing a zip strip around that cable to the metal conduit running up the pole?
were you torching the weeds? if so COOL
yep, the most fan you can have in your front yard - burning weed.
So here is a question to you. In your last home where you seemed to dominate for years, how long did it take you to get that lawn to domination state?

How long do we wait to cut lawn after spraying weeds, and can we still water lawn after applying weeds killer?
A while back you did a video on the different mowing heights for cool-season grasses depending on the time of year. Should I still be following that?
Yes, but as the season changes, let it get taller. If it's fescue, longer in summer shades the base of the plant and keeps dark color. Basically 3"-3.5" Spring/Fall, 3.5"-4" Summer. First and last mows of season 3".
Very well done videos! Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us. 😁😁😃
How often can you put down milorganite? I live in Arkansas with warm humid weather. I’ve been having a company spray my lawn for the last few years and I think it’s time I start doing it myself because I have the same pesky weeds coming back after they spray.
I need the butane wand for sure!! 😎♨️

As always entertaining but very informational too. Where did you get that transplanting plugs tool?
Awesome video. What was the name of that tool you used to farm the good grass to the non- growing area by the road?
You’re awesome! Thank you for the great tips! I love your country song!
I see where you listed the name of the tool you used. Has that tool always worked as seamless as it looks in the video? I'm asking because the reviews on Amazons website weren't too great in some areas.
I was away while my grass planted all the large rocks weren't picked up the grass has grown about 3 weeks if I pick them up now will I kill the grass underneath

bermuda will be encouraged to grow "out" rather than "up" if you cut it super short and often. It's natural for it to do that.
The Lawn Care Nut I have newly sodded St Augustine lawn in Texas, how often should I water right now to get it going? Thanks!
I've tried sledgehammer in yellow nutsedge, but what else can be used ? I got a bad batch of mulch with it...
What post-emergent should I use on perennial rye? It's not listed as a tolerant grass for the Blindside. I have Tenacity in the shed. Should I stick with that?
What was that tool u we're using that was cutting in the lawn cause I need one
Another good one, makes me want to get out there.
Allyn when would you apply fungicide app. for South Carolina area ?????? I have enjoyed all your help with the lawn, learned a lot thanks..
Amazing video! Keep them coming.
Do you recommend watering after a mow? or will that just clump lawn clippings into thatch?
Allyn, are you going to use a manual, rotary mower, or gas powered? I'm in AZ and have the same problem with Bermuda. It's so thick due to overseed and Milo use that cutting below 2" just gives me burn marks by rotary blades.
its coming along nicely..
great video! now I'm starting to wonder if I have nutsedge.
hey allyn I see your are using the black string for your weed whacker why is that.. and how come you not using the edger attachment
Can you plug cool weather lawn as well? I'm assuming that you can but does it spread as quickly?
I've had good results with SedgeHammer+ for getting rid of Nutsedge in a stand of Zoysia. It's expensive, but the other products I tried burned the Zoysia.
LCN - I just bought a newly built house in SC and my builder put down in bermuda sod in the front yard, they didn't do a great job laying it and theres tons of lines in between the pieces of sod. Is there a better way to fill in those holes than just putting seed down and a little bit of dirt in the cracks? Thanks huge fan!
Andrew Prince as long as the gaps are 3/4 of an inch or less you should be fine
It grows in by the end of the summer just try not to run the lawn mower wheels on the cracks
thrower down fert every 5 weeks (Milorganite) and mow at 1" every 4 days. Those lines will fill in within a month or two.
good deal I just did that yesterday, mowed real low then threw down milorganite right before a good rain over night! Thanks for all the help and love your channel!
I want a supper flat lawn that I can mow supper low I currently have sun and shade mix grass by Scott's but can I mow burmuda lower ? like 1 inch or less
Link to that epic torch and your safari hat i've seen in other videos!
Allyn, I know you say to put the clippings back in the lawn but when i do that with my Marathon 2 grass it mats down chokes the grass and makes this hard web layer right above the soil and then nothing grows. What do i do? This is in southern california
What dye do you use? Can you just use food coloring?
FishFind3000 don't use food color trust me back in my high school days my fellow football buddies sprayed red and black food color my my folks grass and it stayed that way for long time...lol
LCN, again great vid.....what model is that Toro? Will this be you new lawn mower ?
I see you are using Blindside but you mentioned in a previous video that you preferred Celcius due to the residual effect. I bought Celcius based on the video now I wish I went with Blindside. Can you tell me why you went back to blindside?

Oh how I miss your striping videos
me too!
you need to DOMINATE your new neighbor... lol
Taiawatea Emery back then, he used to do stripes on his lawn every time he mowed. The videos should be on his popular section of his channel
Gr8 video!! Quick question what is that tool called that your using @11:20
this one here amzn.to/2msUhpO
What was that torch you were getting the weeds in the cracks
LCN: New viewer/homeowner with my own Frankenlawn: Should I be worried about the health effects of blindside other weedkillers? I have a dog who loves to eat grass and a new baby.
Allyn, great video.
Great stuff, I just did surgery on my St augustine thoughs Grubs.. Lol
Any particular brands you recommend for seeding fescue (turf/tall)? Price isn't an issue, my lawn isn't that big
call Drew and tell him you are a fan of the channel - he has the coolest/rarest stuff in small quantities - high quality www.seedsuperstore.com/
The Lawn Care Nut will do thanks for your help!
does Kentucky Blue grass grow back and fill up empty spots like Bermuda?

hi should i mulch or bag, witch is better
What brand of grass seed do you recommend?
Instead of spaying the weeds in the big bare spot, couldn't you have plugged them out and replace it with the bermuda plugs?
What is the flame thing you used on the drive way?
Hey Allyn, what is it about reel mowing at lower heights that rotary can't handle? Like what are the mechanics of it that make it brown up.
Not Allyn, but I can probably answer. A rotary will start to grab and pull on the stolons. A rotary also does not shear grass straight across. The whirling blade tears the tops off of the grass. A rotary will also find every single deviation in the ground and scalp in a circular pattern.
rey3472 thanks for that info, Rey. I had my suspicions that would be the case. So can you train Bermuda to be sub 2" with a rotary mower and not have scalping issues and return to a vibrant green color?
It can be done provided you keep the blade razor sharp before each mowing, ground has to be countertop flat, and you need to mow such that very little height is taken off at each mowing. If you are willing to do all of this religiously, it can work. Otherwise, a reel mower will be easier to manage.
Where can you get that tool you used for the transplant? What's it called?
My front lawn has a. Tree and it's roots are showing above grass. Also the grass is super thin and badly grows. I live in Wisconsin. What should i do?
KumarHD make a mulch ring would be easiest. Hard to get grass to grow under trees as roots are in constant competition. Roots showing also hurts that possibility.
Good video. What is the name of the tool you are using as a torch?
