- Опубліковано 17 сер 2018
- A good bermuda grass lawn care program can help your lawn get the treatment it needs to be the envy of the neighborhood. This video teaches you how to fertilize a bermuda lawn. I also cover what pre and post emergent herbicides to apply and when to apply them. Bermudagrass lawns can look great with the proper care. Hopefully these tips will help you develop a treatment schedule for your lawn that is based not only on the calendar, but also on the weather. Here are some of the links mentioned in the video.

Haha lucky I found this. I can take everything you say and apply it to my lawn. As I'm in Birmingham, AL. Got tired of getting jipped by Tru-Green So I decided to take care of my lawn on my own. Thanks A ton for all of your help.
Great stuff Jason! Last year was my first year and my program is very similar. I think I'm going to switch up my fertilizer to incorporate a slow release in June or July.. That made a lot of sense to me
Thanks a bundle Jason! I appreciate your time and sharing your knowledge with us. God Bless you and your family!
Thank you. Glad to help
Thanks for running program down for us. Good lookin out!
Thanks Jason. Good info 👍
Man thank you soo much, this video has some much knowledge thank you for sharing
Thank you Jason....can you do the same thing for St Augustine. This video is SO helpful. I have pulled a lot of this info from your other videos but this one is a good one for me to reference. This is VERY beneficial. I also find the Weed ID and Treatment videos very helpful. I would love to see a series called, "How to handle this"...where you show up at a yard, examine/ID the weeds for us, and then go over how to treat it, with what chemicals. My latest issue is this. Picked up two new customers (mix of Bermuda and St Aug in both yards) in AUG in Texas...HOT. Both yards are over run with spurge, crabgrass, nutsedge, some pigweed, plus others I cant even identify....LOL...where to start?? Ugggg.When you mix the small handheld sprayers with chemicals for spot treating, how long do they last? A week before refill, a day? Curious to know if I can mix, spray and leave the rest for later without loosing ethicacy.
I was cranking my solo chest spreader and the top popped off and a scary clown popped up and scared the hell out of me. I forgot to remove the clown from the hopper when it first arrived. So don't forget to do that.
Nice video Jason. Thanks for taking the time to share your knowledge.
Thanks Jason! I will be using this on my own yard this year since my grass is mostly Bermuda and see how goes, thinking about doing a before and after photo or video.
Brant T how did it go?
very helpful thank you for posting!
I really don't want to spend $180 on Celsius without your advice. Check out my question a couple of comments down. You are wonderful teacher. Thanks.
Thanks Jason for taking the time to show us average home owners how best to keep our yards looking great. I received many compliments last summer from my neighbors about my yard. I even had a Lawn service rep stop and ask me which lawn service company I used. Funny, I told him I did it all myself. He said my yard was the best looking one in our subdivision. Nice compliment I thought.
Another question. I use change up on buttonweed. I have to go back 3 times at 10 day intervals. How do you charge?
LCL; thanks for all your advice, I had been struggling to get info on killing virginia buttonweed around GA. I had been looking to get ‘avenue south’ herbicide which is combination of many focus on virginia buttonweed chamberbitter and some others. do you recommend it? MSM Turf is also mentioned for a lot less per application. I am mainly concerned with yellowing the bemuda turf and gettting ride off v. buttonweed prior to next season.
Thanks for your videos. Very informative. What do you think of Dimension vs Prodiamine. I'm interested in Dimension.
Hi Jason. I'm in the weed control and fertilization business in Arkansas. Since we are similar latitudes and dealing with the same grasses, you have been a huge help. I thank you. My question is about how you measure Celsius and use a small sprayer. How do you ensure you are getting the proper rations of the active ingredients. For example, my supplier taught me to mix Negate by pouring the entire bottle into a container with a gallon of water, mix, then you 3 ounce per gallon. Negate, like Celsius has multiple active ingredients. Any advice?
Hey Jason, great video. My backyard is half Tall Fescue and some Bermuda grass. It is on a slight slope and has a vegetable garden. From all the herbicides you mention, is there ANY that aren't safe applied uphill from the garden? I'm afraid the herbicide will run down the hill when it rains and get into the garden. I'm in the Transition Zone in Mid-NC. THANKS.
What is your thoughts on liquid and granular humic? I am thinking of incorporating humic into my program.
Hey Jason, thank you for your clear presentation of this information! Question: does MSMA ever finds its way into your program? If not, which product do you use that acts similarly or has the same (or better) effects? Thanks again!
MSMA is not approved for use on residential lawns
Jason, what would you do differently for zoysia? Thanks.
Jason great video thanks but are you mixing all of those in the tank or applying one product at a time?
Hey Jason I currently do basic lawn service, shrubs, tree trimming etc and want to get into weed control and fertilization. How can identify these weeds you are talking about?
Hi Jason
Why does my lawn produce so much dead yellow straw on almost weekly basis. I collect the clippings but that won't stop it.
My lawn is the same as the neighbors as we all had the same builder and moved in at almost the time. But the "neighbors' lawn is greener" literally.
Thanks
Hey Jason what are top post emergents do you recommend to have a good control on weeds
Do you every use any quinclorac in your weed control program?
Can you transplant Bermuda to other areas in the lawn and if so when can this be done ,I'm in Tennessee
Just alittle curious what positive or negative effects shooting miracle grow could have on a lawn.
So how do you apply Advion Fire Ant Bait at it's low rate of 0.5 oz / 1K ?
Hi Jason, been studying this and wanting to set up my program for bermuda in North Atlanta. One point of confusion is on Round 1 and use of 24D and Atrazine in January. I have read that Bermuda may not be totally dormant and so use of Atrazine is risky, especially on short, reel cut lawns. Also, I have read in a few places that 24D will kill dormant bermuda. Have you had any problems with this in Rd 1 or 2?
Worked for 2 lawn care companies. One was Weed Man that did no pre-emergent applications and i was so young and dumb i didn’t know why that half my stops were call back jobs spot spraying weeds. I guess Weed Men saved money just fertilizing 6 times a year and spot spraying weeds when they came up.
The other company actually did pre emergents but no were near the level of intelligence of this program. Again i think these big companies know its the cheapest method to sell 6 rounds of fertilizer and deal with weeds as they come up. It’s us workers who have to deal with frustrated customers and spend time doing call backs.
Do you have some kind of computer program you use to keep track of all your customers and the payments or do you just do it by paper?
Jason, what can I do to right weeds, if I don't want to put nasty chemicals into my lawn (I have kids)? Any organic suggestions?
So if you are using triplet rd 1&2 and 2,4d again in the fall, are you not exceeding On 2,4d for the year?
I thought that Atrazine was a big no-no on bermuda, although I have heard that you can use glyphosate on it as long as its dormant without causing damage. So my question is using Atrazine on bermuda fine as long as the grass is dormant? Also, is this a blanket application of Atrazine you are recommending or just a spot treatment for any existing weeds?
Not an expert, but I have used it on dormant Bermuda with no results. In my experience atrazine doesn't do anything if the temp is below 55. Course all these chemicals work slowly when it's cold
I use Indaziflam year round. If using prodiamine, I would split the fall/winter treatment for poa annua
Do you find indaziflam to be effective on crabgrass? I had heard that prodiamine was a better crabgrass product
It depends on the weather. Rainy summers will weaken prodiamine sooner. Indaziflam is longer lasting in my experience. Third year, no crabgrass.
How does heavy rain impact effectivity of sprayed pre-emergent? Better to spray before a heavy rain or after a heavy rain? Would you ever have to reapply due to rain? Thanks.
rain before and after is good for pre-emergent. get it into the soil.
Please HELP. In your video, you Missed mentioning the dosage for atra-5 (atrazine) per acre . How much do you use ? Thank you !!
20 ounces per acre
@@lawncarelife thank you for your fast reply. I spent all my day to note all your details 🙂🤗.Great !!
Hi Jason, have you ever used Change Up instead of Triplet during Round 1? I have a lot of creeping charlie, oxalis, geranium and Triplet doesn't kill those weeds.
I don't but oftentimes if I see a yard that has those weeds, I have to go back and spot treat with change up. Or sometimes, I put change up in my ride on machine and I can ride over it real quick and blanket it. But those yards are not the majority so to me it's not worth the extra cost to put change up on every yard
I know this is a sensitive question, but how much do you think you'd charge annually for a 10,000 sq ft yard to handle what you discussed? (Assuming no special call-outs for weed problems, etc). Here in central OK, programs run from five to ten visits, and the price varies considerably (from what I've seen of my neighbors' yards, the results vary considerably, too!)
Around $80 per application
At minute 9:13 you Say the quantity for MSN TURF per acre but the video has been cut, so How much quantity per acre do you apply ? And do you apply it also in two rounds or just one? More details please .☺️
Bermuda growing in a cool season Tall Fescue lawn doesn't look good. What remedy other than Rd up?
Do you a program set up for a centipede lawn?
you don't do much with centipede .
Does a pre emergent stop grass runners from spreading and rooting?
Yes. I'm trying to avoid spraying in bald areas
Lawn Care Life Thanks
You’re using surfactants with your pre-emergents. Pre-emergents need to be watered into the soil. Wouldn’t a surfactant inhibit it’s ability to penetrate the soil?
Would this program be effective for zoysia as well.
For the most part yes. I use slightly less fertilizer on Zoysia. I also add grub control during the summer
Lawn Care Life thank for the help. Great videos
Is there a granule for dimension ?
Yes
👍
I know this is a old video, but your math and my math get to the same point regarding fertilizer volume but I believe mine is much easier to understand. Take nitrogen, the first number, and divide it into 100. 100/38=2.63. So, 2.63 lbs. per 1000 sq. equals 1 lb. of nitrogen per 1000 sq. feet. In your example 1 lb. per 1000 sq. feet would be 10×2.63 or 26.3 lbs. If you want 2 lbs. per 1000 sq. feet, just double 2.63 and multiply again by 10. 2.63 doubled is 5.26, so 5.26×10=52.6 lbs. of product to get 2 lbs. per 1000 sq. feet.
Not trying to confuse anyone but to me anyway, it is a much simpler formula to figure out fertilizer volume.
Thank you
My pleasure Jason I watch all of your content and learn lots!
Will this world if a Bermuda lawn is like 30% dallis grass?
You must be in tuscaloosa
What do you charge for this program ?
Depends on the yard
Per thousand sqft? Thank you sir.
California don't let us use alot of those chemicals but i do what i can. #Living wild and free😜
Atrazine is turning the frogs gay.
