How To Create Stripes In Your Lawn
In today's video I talk about one of everyone's favorite topics, lawn stripes. Some love them, and some hate them, but everyone in lawn care circles talks about them. Striping your lawn is possible with most grass types, but it is far easier to achieve in cool season lawns. There are a lot of theories on how that striping effect is achieved, but in reality it's just caused by the sun's light reflecting off blades of grass that are laid down in different directions.

The Hurricane Missed Us, But Check This Out!

In this video I show a 4 week update of the lawn post-renovation. The yard has made (almost) a full recovery in the face of this Texas sized heat wave. Luckily, we've been blessed with some rain along the way as well. Bermuda grass's ability to self heal has played a huge role in this recovery! Bermuda is resilient, and if it's warm and sunny outside, it will find a way to grow and prosper. Law...
How To LEVEL Your LAWN Using SAND (Includes 3 Week UPDATE!) | Topdressing for a FLAT Lawn
zhlédnutí 47KPřed měsícem
This video covers how I used mason sand to help level my lawn. The real goal of a sand leveling project is not actually to "level" but to create a flat surface to mow on. Your first step is to mow your lawn down to a low height of cut to make the sand easier to move. I chose to core aerate before applying the sand so I could help with soil compaction and allow the sand to mix better with the ex...
Aerating my Bermudagrass Lawn | Lawn Level Prep Work
zhlédnutí 27KPřed měsícem
In today's video I aerate my bermudagrass lawn. Aerating is the final step in prep work for my lawn leveling project. Aerating, specifically core aerating, is typically suggested in order to reduce compaction in a lawn. Compaction can make it difficult for water and nutrients to reach the soil layer, as well as making it harder for grass to tack down. In order to reduce compaction in the long t...
Verticutting a Bermudagrass Lawn
zhlédnutí 3,8KPřed měsícem
Today I'm verticutting my bermudagrass lawn. The distinction between verticutting and dethatching usually lies within the equipment or more specifically, the reel, being used to do the work. Dethatchers usually have flail reels or tines, while verticutters will have fixed blade reels that can slice through the stolons of the bermudagrass. Verticutting can be used to thin out your lawn when it b...
Bringing Down Height of Cut in your Bermuda Lawn
zhlédnutí 6KPřed 2 měsíci
Today I'm performing a reset scalp on my bermuda lawn. I realize that my grass isn't 3 feet tall, but with bermuda, once you miss a couple mow days, you have to perform a reset scalp to bring your height of cut (HOC) back down. Without scalping, you'll have trouble maintaining a green lawn. Scalping during the growing season is like hitting the reset button on your lawn, and then you can set yo...

Should You Mow Wet Grass?
zhlédnutí 17KPřed 3 měsíci
Is it okay to mow wet grass? Well it's not ideal, but sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do. We've been getting a lot of rain in Texas lately and it's been hard to find a good time to mow the lawn when it wasn't wet. Wet grass clumps up, sticks to your lawn equipment, stains your shoes, and makes your lawn more susceptible to disease. Depending on your circumstances though, you might have to...

Annihilate Grubs in the Lawn

It's mid-April and the June bugs are upon us! June bugs by themselves are little more than a nuisance, but June bug larvae can wreak havoc on your lawn. Grubs or grubworms feed on the root system of your turf, and if left untreated, can cause significant damage. Today I'm treating for grubs with a Bioadvanced product called 24 Hour Grub Killer Plus.

How are you getting your gm 1000 to cut that down? I can barely get mine to do it even after a fresh backlap
Damn ya lawm looks clean
Curious to know how you keep your Bermuda from going into your neighbors yard? I am in a neighbor that is 99% TTF. I purchased this home last year and the previous owner started growing Bermuda in the lawn and now it taking over my neighbors lawn. I have always had TTF in my previous home but I am thinking about leaving the Bermuda and pushing it next year to fill in the rest of the yard. Thank you for your videos!
Yard is on point!
Can I just point out what a great country and time in history we live in where we get to spend time focusing on adding stripes to our lawn? Love it
My reel roller revolution is a striping machine!! Celebration bermuda around 3/4" Nice video as always brochacho
Man I like seeing the stripes so much I’ll mow the same pattern every time. They definitely stand out and last longer. I know you can get into grain issues, but I’m not maintaining a putting green!
I’m in San Antonio and I don’t know how your grass is so green bro 😂
A lot of that comes down to soil quality. He's done a ton of work based on his videos with aerating, top dressing, etc. to improve the ground. I'm sure he's got top of the line products too for keeping up with nutrients.
@@bak3s pgr, high N, iron, healthy well-hydrated plants, and, yes, soil. I transplanted a sample of grass from a bucket to my side lawn. this spot where the soil from the pot was put down has the darkest grass. I'm guessing good pH, considering my soil has high ph. And maybe higher organic which may hold nutrients longer than my sandy soil. the color difference is quite obvious/very pronounced.
You can see up against his foundation the brownish coloring. He sprays nitrogen, iron and nutrients to get that darker color.
1st 😂
so I'm new to all this fertilizing lol. new to being a homeowner at that so i put down fresh sod back in march of this year. now I'm hooked on getting my grass to stay green year long. ( i know its not feasible in this Texas heat but worth a try for a newbie) however, i wanted to get my HOC low this summer but since i laid sod late i didn't get to establish it until she May officially and by June i was still cutting at 2.5 (tifway 419). now I've worked it down to 1inch looking a little brown and light light green. I'm now cutting twice a week but still not turning green the way i want it. me not reading much into this liquid ferts. i applied my application last night and watered it in immediately. how long after i did that app and watered in can i reapply since i messed up? TIA
OK, I have a question I mow my yard every other day. It looks really good. Imagine a flat top haircut perfectly flat and then you can see a little tufts in the lawn. They’re like runners and if I pull one up it’ll easily pull out. Do you know what this is and I have Bermuda I’m in Texas.
I hand water run it till it pools up
Once a week?
Using these tools are ingenious! Obviously it would cost a lot of money to get all of this, but I could do some of the work without buying a riding mower and using my electric 4 wheel scooter to do the work for dragging the leveler.
Water only allowed Twice a month?!?! What kind of sick ppl made such a insane rule?!?
Hey brother you think it's too late to reset. I'm in Crowley Texas
On the growth impact how much would you use each week for spoon feeding??
What exact type of grass is that
I live in fort worth Texas and I still have 90% of my grass that’s still green I watered it twice a week for one hour. And I have been using Titan Ultra and seems to survive the heat.
Does the sand smother the existing grass if the top of the grass is not visible?
Great video, thank you
Should I only do a HOC reset if my lawn is to thick/tall?

@LawnInsider Did you sod your lawn with Tifway19 and how do you combat weeds with new sod? Thinking of putting sod in my lawn of Iron Cutter Bermuda. Thanks Rhett.
He answered every problem I had in this segment 😂 .. good stuff
This looks like a green carpet 💚
Never cut your grass that low if you want a beautiful lawn. Always raise the deck to its tallest position. Your grass will stay nice and green and it feels better to walk on.
The problem im haveing with mine is its not cycling thru the stations i have them all set 1-4 stations to come on for 5 mins each but insteaf the same one just stays on for 20 mins
Great video - I've been following for a while. How many times have you leveled your lawn in total? Do you think you'll have to do that indefinitely or each season it's getting more and more level?
Hey! Do you use any PGRs?
You water lawns in the USA? In UK we use rain.
Ever heard of a drought?
my god gave me clouds
Great looking yard but that fence is a nightmare
Step one: have grass
Gorgeous video. Clear, quick, and extremely helpful. I wish I could give 1 million likes. Perfection.
I learned that I needed to run each rotor zone for an hour and the sprayers for 25 minutes. I can only water once a week in my area of central Texas
Thanks Rhett. Once we found out how long to water, would you say fewer and deeper is better than more and shallower, as far as how many days to split it up.
You want the roots to try and find water. Make them work for it and grow deep. So yeah, try to water father apart for longer.
First Aussie 😁. Rhett , great advice 😎
Dude, thanks. You just taught me something. It never even occurred to me to measure sprinkler output in this way.
Can you recommend best Bermuda seed brand ?
Hey man. Noticed that you use the same back pack sprayer I use. An older Ryobi model. Do you ever have any issues with it getting clogged and if so what do you do to keep it running smoothly?
If you use Rainbird sprinkler, great diffusion and distance
What about Zoysia grass?
Im new. How do you mow a single/double?
Figured sand would mess a lawn up. Drying it out. Wth?
Can I mix prodiamine 65wg with 32 oz water and then apply with Ortho hose sprayer?
When I saw your yard a few days ago, I couldn't believe how short it is.
Mine keeps blowing for blower but won’t vacuum
Rhett, can you shoot me a link to the soaker hose you referenced on your video. Thanks!

Do you roll these? The grass looks like it’s growing all the same direction which is hard to find
