How do I start my homelite leaf blower
is it already too late for this? should i skip it and just apply the second product you recommended?
"Blower, not a bomb" got it ✍️
Gotchu bro
I’m so glad that I came across your video! I like how you get to the point. Just tell me what I have to do and show me how to do it. 💕
Thanks for watching! Exactly what we are trying to accomplish.
Pablo Picasso didn't paint the Mona Lisa at all...
Hahah was hoping someone would pick up on that.
Lol
Love it, I'm using this from now on. Don't care that DaVinci did it. From now on for me, Picasso painted it.
LOL! Sometimes you’ve gotta rock the boat man!
That's why he's talking about lawn care, and not painting!
Good stuff man. I’m gonna follow your channel bc I just want to know products that work and know a good routine. Love the “straight to the point” info
That's our goal! Exactly what we set out to do. Thanks for the comment, Cody!
@@TheLawnReview do you recommend skipping the Barricade and just going for the complete Anderson’s Lawn Program? I currently have weeds sprouting up in St. Augustine and want to prevent them, but also have a tons of weeds in Bermuda and need a post emergent to kill them.
I'm glad I found this channel. Like you mentioned, I used to watch Ryan Knorr, but he went way too far down a path I'll never be able to go (sand, reel mower, etc). I just need common sense advice like "do this now, then do this, and then this."
I got so pumped reading your comment! Thank you very much for that review!
Absolutely correct
LOL, I got pumped reading your response to his comment 🤣
@@solidsoldier9021 That's exactly why I started this channel.
@@TheLawnReview GREAT JOB 👍
Rewatching this one again this year
Always a good reminder.
Really glad you cleared up the bomb verse blower part, could have been bad! 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿
Never know who could watch this!
Lol
@@TheLawnReview Absolutely
You want a slow release fert with the pre emergent to promote root growth not top growth. The deep growth of roots helps later in the year if you have a period of drought or dry period.
That's exactly right!
I like the way you explain everything.
Thank you!
@@TheLawnReview You are welcome.
Awesome My Nephew uses Anderson’s his lawn is Very Nice
Thank you! Yeah, Andersons puts out a very very good product.
Oh wow I didnt know about Ace Hardware doing that for blades. I'm checking them out. THANKS!
Of course! Thanks for watching Lamar
You are the best! Big help 👏
Thank you so much for watching!!
DaVinci. But I know that would have given Picasso a good chuckle ;-)
Glad you caught that 😅😅
Liked this vid! Helpful!
Thanks Madeline!!
You are doing great job.
I really appreciate it!
@@TheLawnReview Anytime.
First Time watching your channel... Great job... I subscribed and will keep watching.....
Awesome! Thank you! Will have a part 2 to this one here in a couple weeks.
Welcome aboard! Thank you!!
I reached out to The Andersons and Lawnbox is coming out with an organic pre emergent very soon. I am also going to get their grub control just in case.
Wow! That's really cool. I'll have to keep my eyes peeled for it! Thanks!
Pre emergent in spring (when Forsythia blooms) for crabgrass and again in fall for poa annua
You are exactly right!
Your way to early typically then. It's been debunked. Growing days for both are way different.
All that space would make great gardening space 🤠
But you gotta love the nice green grass
@@TheLawnReview yeppers lol but grass looks better with a cow standing in it 😂
@@justbe4481 Oh 100% agree
Simple and easy to understand
Heck yes! Glad you think so!
Cant wait to have a lawn, but have to build our house first!!! Liked#6!!!
Awesome! How much land?
@@TheLawnReview We are looking at 3 to 6 acres !!! I am actually designing the house as I reply to you!!! Trying my best to keep the cost down!!!
@@2point..0 Wow I'm jealous! lots of good acreage there. Good luck!
This is such great information. Glad I found you, looking for a cordless shop vac. Now, I need to get my husband to look at your video to take care of our lawn and sharp the blades on the riding mower. Would ACE sharpen those also? or do you have a video on it? My husband said he would do it, if he new how.
Yep Ace does it for like $5. I've got a youtube short I did on sharpening your own blades!
Its so tricky for me in the northeast to figure out when to put pre emergent. I actually got the barricade this year i can't wait to try it.....but the temperatures are so wacky right now up here, this weekend will be almost 70 during the day and 28 at night. I suppose i can start measuring the soil temps this year to get a better idea. The weeds that come up in one spot are so annoying, it looks like creeping charlie and it sprouts up pretty early and NO weed killer has worked on it, it just turns it yellow but doesn't get rid of it.
I’d err on the side of being early! It’s not going to go anywhere and you can put down a rate that provides 5 months of coverage. Better to be early rather than late. Hmmm. You can email me a picture if you want tyler@thelawnreview.com and I’ll let you know what I think it is!
Nice one .
Glad you enjoyed, Betsy!
Thank you for the vid. I am going to try your advice this year hopefully I’ll have a nice lawn unlike my previous years.
Thanks for watching! I just released a new video you may be interested in yesterday. It could definitely be helpful just for the basics. Also you have the best username on here haha
@@TheLawnReview Great! I’ll take a look. We all appreciate your vids. I used to have the name as United States of America and Google told me I couldn’t so they removed the America due to the government or something like that. Crazy. 😂
@UnitedStates. That’s amazing haha. Did you get it back in like 2004 or something?
@@TheLawnReview It was an early account, but they changed the handle 2010 or so. It’s weird I only woke up to see my handle changed and a nice email from google saying due to restrictions from official government blah blah blah. Oh well, can’t always win or specially beat Uncle Sam. They were nice enough to leave me as you see me. 😂 Cheers!

Pablo Picasso did not paint the Mona Lisa. But I appreciate your knowledge about lawns and mowers! Thanks for a good video.
Lol! He could've... Thank you for the nice words! Good luck this year!
That's what he said. LOL
Thanks for the video. I've got one question though. This spring will be the 1st time for me to use a pre emergent. Ive got a battery sprayer and I'll be using liquid. My question is, how long should I treat the lawn for? 3, 4, 5 months worth? I'm in Canada and I have Kentucky blue grass. I'm aware that I won't be able to seed any new grass while using the pre emergent. I am assuming I'll have to use enough to cover May, June, July, August, September. Would I be correct to put enough down to cover all 5 months? What should I use with it? RGS, fertilizer and possibly some PGR in the hot summer months? Thanks!
Thank you for the question! I typically do about 4 months worth of protection. I think that’s enough to get me through the heavy germination period of the weeds. Then when you seed in the early fall make sure you put down Tenacity directly on the seed. Then once you’ve cut the new grass in the fall (2 or 3 times) go ahead and put down another dose of pre-emergent for the winter weeds. (At least that’s what I do!) I don’t usually mess with growth regulation. Just a little more technical than I like to go and I don’t mind cutting once or twice a week. I’d encourage you to check out Ryan Knorr’s channel. He’s a fantastic cool season grass resource. I know his company Lawn Supply also sells GR’s that you might be interested in! Thank you for the question though.
I like to rake my lawn to scratch up the soil and loosen the dead grass before I fertilize and put down weed stuff, this I do the day before it rains.
That’s cool - kind of like a dethatcher?
I usually wait on the pre-emergent treatment till April (in central Massachusetts) in order to get protection (mostly from crabgrass) further into the warmer months. I use a “step program” product that offers (an expensive) product that allows for “seeding”. I always seem to need to reseed some of the lawn each year. Winter kill (according to my local landscaper). SO…do you have any guidance, other than what I’ve described, to get/keep my lawn in shape? Thanks for the video. For the most part, it reinforced what I already know to do. Always looking to improve.
Hey Jonathan! Thanks for the question! So a couple questions (I'll try to provide an answer in my question too.) Yeah, lawn care regiments be extremely dependent on where you live.
1. What type of grass are you growing? Unless you're growing a unique turf type I'm assuming you're using a cool-season grass. In which case I (almost) always recommend strictly overfeeding in the fall. In your case early fall if not late summer. You will have a much better take and seed success in the fall and spend a lot less money watering in the late spring/early summer trying to keep that young grass alive.
2. What type of preemergent are you using? If you're up for a bit of a hassle and want to be able to apply seed AND put a preemergent down then you can use a product called Tenacity (liquid herbicide). You need to apply this the exact same time of putting down your seed (or within 1 to 2 days of seeding). It's one of the few pre emergents available on the market that allows you to kill existing weeds, prevent WEED germination AND still allow seed.
@@TheLawnReview great answer. I use Scott’s 4 products. And I put down their fall fertilizer religiously. Sometimes I miss #3…timing. 🤷🏻♂️. Last year, we had a bad drought. I gave up watering in August. My well water source has limits. By September, I started re-seeding and watering. It worked well enough but I still need more seeding to start this season. I use Jonathan Greene’s brand seed…deep rooting “mostly Sun” version.
So, honestly I think you'd be happier with this product from The Anderson's (linked below). It's a higher quality product than the Scotts in my opinion. I supplement that program with Ironite between application 1 & 2 and again between 2 & 3 for that extra green up. Not 100% necessary. Keeping your lawn fed properly in the summer will actually help it to stay green and "awake" in the summer heat (depending on how hot it gets). But my recommendation to the original question would be to wait, get your weeds under control, then overseed big time in the early fall, cut it twice. Then put preemergent down in late fall to prevent winter weeds. If you're a subscriber I'll be putting out videos all year long walking through the process! Cheers!

Thank you! Let’s crush it this year. No mercy on the neighbors.
What are your thoughts on the liquid preemergents where you put it on the end of your garden hose and spray it on?
I pretty much always use a granular but I have heard some people use Spectracide with good success!
Get to it!!!!
Thank you Madam
All sounds good but the first thing I would tell people is if you are planning on doing any type of seeding of your lawn do not put down a pre-emergent unlessed it has a seed starter with the crab grass control.
Most preemergents do not allow you to seed for a couple months after application
Yep that’s a good point for sure.
Great video and advice. Is it it too late to apply to my lawn now? I’m located in VA. Also, any suggestions how I can fix patchy areas of lawn?
Not at all! It’ll just prevent the weeds from spreading any further. But if you’re dealing with patchy areas that you want to fill in this spring, you cannot put down a preemergent as the preemergent will prevent grass seed germination just like it will weed seed germination. How bad are the patches? Is it possible it possible for you to wait to fill them in until the fall?
Another good first start is to take some samples and send them off to get a soil test so you can see how much nitrogen is in the soil and any toxins that might be present. Normally pretty cheap, 20 bucks, and most can give you a amount of nitrogen to get you going.
Yep! That's a great way to do it.
Our lawn had a lot of weeds and clover so I used a Weed and Feed. The grass portion of the lawn now looks great but with the weeds killed or thinned out I've now got essentially bare dirt. How soon can I use grass seed? It's been about 20 days since application.
Hey Rod! Thanks for the question. What type of weed and feed? Like the brand name.
Thank you for the content, but I thought you never put pre emergent down before a rain due to possible runoff? Is this true or false? Thanks again
You want to water it in without competent diluting it. If it’s a major storm then it might be a waste but if it’s a normal, nice rain then you can just use the rain.
Talk about the subject!!!!!
Hi Beverly! Thanks for the feedback. What part in particular are you talking about? I’d love to improve in future videos
Thanks for the video, very informative. If I plans to reseed can I take the same steps? I live in New York. Thanks.
Thank you for the question! Unfortunately no, I do not recommend reseeding in the spring. I only reseed in the fall. I grow a fescue grass (cool season) which is the type of grass you’re probably using as well.
@@TheLawnReview Thank you for your response. I’m sorry if I sound ignorant. This is my first spring in my house and I’m new too lawn care. So I should wait until fall to reseed? I plan on using Scott’s 4 step program. What is I have areas without grass? I guess I won’t know until the grass grows back. Thank again for your response.
@@dman9517 No problem at all! Yes, wait until the fall to seed. In the meantime - start to get your weeds under control with a pre-emergent. I would actually recommend you use Barricade by The Andersons instead of Scott's. I've had much better luck with that product. It should give you 3-4 months worth of protection from weeds.
If you don't mind me asking, how big is your lawn? I might have another idea if your lawn isn't too huge - might save you some time and money.
@@TheLawnReview Thank you for you response. My lawn is about 6000 sq ft.
Barricade, do they have a 4 step program as well?
Glad to find your channel! Trying to fix up my nasty ass clover lawn in middle TN, it’s go time!
Thanks man!! Same here! Thanks for subscribing. What type of grass are you growing? I’m assuming fescue?
@@TheLawnReview yep, tall fescue, though my primary concern is clearing out the weeds because I’d estimate my front lawn is about 50%+ clover lmao
What would you recommend for a wait time between applications of Anderson's pre-emergent and Surge, their post-emergent? I'm in the northeast, growing region 6.
However long it takes for your grass to start growing in your yard to the point where it is nice and thick. I usually wait until I am consistently mowing once/week to consider a post-emergent. Posting a video on that one very soon.
I am skipping preemergence this season. I just did a comprehensive spring seeding yesterday.
Probably a good idea - where do you live?
@@TheLawnReview I live in Port Chester NY. I suffered some damage to my lawn because of fungus. I thought it would repair itself but I can’t wait till the fall

I was thinking about buying the Anderson kit. Will it fix the issues in my yard?
I’ve liked it so far! But what issues are you dealing with?
What should I do if I missed the window and now I have weeds? Should I still put down pre emergent or should I do something else?
I’d still put it down! It’ll help with summer grass and prevent the situation from getting worse! We’ll put a post emergent down in a couple weeks
You should do a post emergent
@@jwilli850 Stay tuned!
Have you heard about Hart eclectic mowers? If so what do you think of them? I'm looking at buying a used one. Thanks.
They’re basically the same as Ryobi. Almost identical mower lines and manufactured by Techtronic
@@TheLawnReview Thank you for the info!
Any time! Thanks for watching and commenting
Should you use a pre emergent if you seeding a lawn late fall on a brand new yard? The grass is still spotty. Getting mixed information..
Where are you located? That’d help me provide a little more tailored response
So, use the fall fertilizer after the pre emergent? Would it be best to dethatch and aerate before hand? Thanks for the info. The more i watch others, the more lost i get. Lol. This i can do
Hey Dustin! It really depends on where you live. Do you mean fall fertilizer in the fall or right now?
@@TheLawnReview Louisiana right now
I prefer a $79 for a Green SCOTT aerator wheel for mowers 🇨🇦 as well makes there own TINES.
I need to check that out! Thanks for sharing.
If I am going to dethatch my yard In April, should I put pre-emergent down or will it keep my lawn from recovering from the dethatching?
Thank you for the question! What type of grass are you working with?
Sorry I forgot to include rye grass as well.
How long do you wait before putting down seed after that pre emergent.
It depends on the rate at which you put it down but probably 4 months? I wouldn’t advise to seed until the fall if you have a cool season or transitional lawn (aka you live in the north or anywhere above Georgia).
best liquid fertilizer
If that’s a question, I like Foltec from The Anderson’s! Link below.

Does 'Barricade' pre-emergent prevent germination of new grass seed?
For simplicity sake, yes. But it actually prevents it from poking through the surface but yeah essentially
I gave you a like due to your efforts but you need to get to the point your videos. Thanks
Thanks for the feedback. Sorry for the longer intro.
Ok, I'll take a look at it. They probably sponsor you though right?
We were not paid to make this video or feature any products
😂😂😂 the part when you said people like to blow them up with a blower not a bomb caught me off guard i literally started imagining someone doing that
Honestly sometimes I wish I could blow the leaves up with a bomb though… Haha! Thanks for watching!
Its early fall can i put this right after i cut the grass
Yes!
Great info. I am in Texas in the DFW area. Is it too late to apply the andersons pre emergent?
Thank you! Definitely not too late for you! The seeds germinate and spread in a progression. Putting down preemergent now will prevent the existing weeds from spreading! I’m going to post a video next Sunday walking your through what I do when I miss the preemergent window or some weeds break through
@@TheLawnReview The Anderson is not organic correct?
They do have some organic options. They also own the company Lawn Box and that’s 100% organic fertilizer. You’d be hard pressed to find an effective organic preemergent. I’ve been using it for a while now and it’s safe enough for me!
@@TheLawnReview I didn't see any pre emergent at the Lawn Box website. I recently used Microlife Humates Plus and Hybrid. Do I need a pre emergent if I use Microlife? Technically it is suppose to improve the soil health.
Yeah it’s a good product but won’t do much in terms of stopping weeds. You still need to put down a preemergent. Here’s a link to what I used: ua-cam.com/users/redirect?event=comments&redir_token=QUFFLUhqbVB4Vng1SU5yQk9HbFlIX0ptLUFKTU1GWWZpUXxBQ3Jtc0trR3VjczZTcTQtQjBUcDQxS01wOWl0S1dDWHRDNmJWR2lQZFgxS0IzYjJkUVFJQlVsLThvTE1mNzhCRmdXZ2piWDN3REN2NURoaUFESURWdDZlRHlOX2ZQQmQ4WFRnNzJXSXAzQWRmeVh6WmI4Z0pGYw&q=https%3A%2F%2Fbit.ly%2F41lL7w1&stzid=Ugz90Ul0IBZLPZ2Phuh4AaABAg

What type/model spreader do you use?
Hey Terry! I use the Yard Star by The Andersons
I got lazy residential shit don’t pick up leaves. Don’t kill Demi dandelions.
Okay!
Can I use it on St. Augustine ?
Yes!
Could just take the square footage of the yard and subtract the square footage of the house to get square footage of turf.
Hey Gary! I’m not sure that works for multiple level homes but if it’s a single level house I’m sure that’d be directionally accurate
Is corn gluten a good pre emergent?
Absolutely! It’s a great organic option!
How long do you have to wait to put seeds down once you do pre emergent
Hi Steven! Thanks for the question, truthfully, I wouldn't put any seed down in the spring if you're using cool season grasses. If you don' t mind me asking, where are you located?
@@TheLawnReview nyc
@@stevenziegler2523 Yeah you're probably using some sort of cool season grass like I am. I never seed in the spring. I always over seed in the fall. If you want to seed in the spring you'll need to wait about six weeks after putting the seed down to put down a preeemergent. Not vice versa. If I were you I'd use the spring to get my weeds under control (i.e. put down a preemergent and apply a post emergent a couple months after) and fertilize your existing healthy/desirable turf. If you're subscribed be sure to follow along because I'll be documenting the exact process I'd recommend you follow in your own lawn since we both should be using cool season grasses.
@The Lawn Review thank you!!!!!
Of course! Best of luck this year!
Do I need to do this if I just had my sod installed last year prior to winter?
What kind of sod? How has it done so far?
@@TheLawnReview it is manderley less water lawn, The snow just start melting like a week or so ago. I live in Canada. So our spring is just starting. So the grass is still yellow
I would still put it down but wait until your soil temperature reaches about 50 degrees!
@@TheLawnReview Thanks I will look into that. Thanks for the reply and putting out this video.
Why is it that the lawn he has-as many people do in the US look like multitudes of clumps of grass bundles. The lawns don’t look smooth. They look bumpy. I don’t care how green it is, but a nice smooth lawn is what you want. Here in Canada we would scrape that lawn down to the dirt and start all over again with a proven product line from Scott’s. I don’t work or promote them in any way, but it’s the number one choice here. Try it and in a year from now your going to see a major difference in quality and perfection in you lawn. Best to try and not scoff .
Thanks, Rick. Probably looks that way because it is just starting to warm up here.
Did you cut your lawn before the preemergent?
I like to cut mine a little short right before I apply. It gives the granules a good shot to make contact with the soil. Good question!
@@TheLawnReview Thanks. I was planning to cut first, mainly because it's killing me waiting for it.
What if you overseed in the spring?
If you put preemergent down before you overseed then the seed won’t grow. Where are you located so I can give you a targeted approach
@@TheLawnReview Missouri south central Ozarks. I just overseeded yesterday before the rain. Then put down starter fertilizer.
And all these small engines work best with non-ethanol gas. Look for it.
Same thing I put in my truck.

Thank you for the question! Absolutely! Weeds germinate in a progression, not all at once so you might have missed the first group but you’ll catch the later groups and prevent the situation from getting worse
@@TheLawnReview awesome! Thanks new subbie here
pre emergent safe for dogs?
Andersons Barricade is safe to use around dogs. My dog has been on it for years. Just keep them off it while you’re applying but once you’ve watered it in they’ll be fine

Funny story. Who knew that all the cool looking grass that came up in my yard over the years had nothing to do with turfgrass, but was actually Poa annua. 🤦♂️
So I go to my local site one and I mentioned the problem and they tell me that I should put down this product called dimension. But when I buy the bag, I don't think I'm putting down enough. What? 2 lb for thousand square feet? Doesn't seem like enough.
Anyway, how do you kill Poa annua?
Hahaha! Man I hear ya. Poa Annua can look at lot like grass. Have you ever used Tenacity? It’ll kill Poa Annua for sure without hurting your existing grass.
@@TheLawnReview I have tenacity. I put down a pre-emergent earlier in the week, so when can I put down tenacity? When the poa is up?
Should already be up if it’s alive. It’s a winter weed. So you should apply a pre emergent in the fall. You could put tenacity down if you have any weeds at all otherwise you’re probably fine from the preemergent you put down
@@TheLawnReview I'll throw some tenacity down just for hoops and smiles. There's some sort of a weed that's been growing in this area for years that some hurricane deposited seeds from that pops up literally when it's still cold. I've never seen anything like it.

@@kge420 Thank you for the sub!! I'd recommend you hang off on overseeding until the fall, if you can! The preemergent you apply now will prevent your seed from taking well.

Don't be hatin!
Just pretend you're Picasso and paint the whole yard green, and you'll never have to mow.
Boom there you go! Lawn Hack!
at 5.6lbs/1000 with a 24-0-14 you're putting down 1.34lbs/1000 of N. That's not a little bit of N.
Not if you like to party.
Will never use electric mower, never,
Have you ever seen the Milwaukee M18?

@Bocephus, I agree. Had to for a short time in the 70s. Never again. Specially at the price of electricity.
7 + minutes ill never get back.
Thanks for the feedback man! How can I improve on future videos to make them more beneficial?
It's 2024. Blade sharpening is probably $10. Lol
Goodness I hope not
In our area (western Chicago suburbs), Ace Hardware and others out-source blade sharpening to a fellow that makes the rounds to many hardware stores. Cost was $10-12, so I learned to sharpen a lawn mower blade myself. Could be cheaper elsewhere in the country I suppose.
What do you use?
