What grass seed you used??

Good job, I done a bit of reseeding during lockdown and it cracked me up waiting for it to grow looking at it every day like watching paint dry
Yeah, but at the end its pretty satisfying right? :D
Absolutely, and then when you're finished battling neighbouring cats
Watching paint dry is like watching grass grow.
I’m going thru that now waiting for the first blade of grass.
@@alitlweird This is the best comment I’ve read on the internet this year. Just laughed out loud very hard
Just finished overseeding. I raked, aerated and place top soil over the seeding. Fingers crossed I can save my yard. It's been depressing looking at a dead yard while everyone else has plush greens. Great video mate keep it up!
Im the same. I dud mine last Monday. Fingers crossed for us both😊
How'd it go last year? I'm getting ready to do spring overseeding, curious how it went
7x a day seems like a LOT of watering. I'm in zone 8a and I just got my sprouts after day 7, with only watering 1x a day for 15-20 minutes. I have been checking the ground by hand to ensure it's moist enough and that seems like it's been enough.
The most useful videos I’ve seen in the UK keep it up.
Thanks Alan!
I agree. It's great to finally find useful easy to follow DIY videos for the UK and not the US! Also access to the tools and products you use to achieve your results. Great stuff thanks
Looks great! Yeah I think my issue in the past is I haven't watered new seed enough so there were some great tips in here. Nice one 👌
Thanks Rob the impact is probably abut too much water but its what I had and only running it for short periods just keeping them moist
This will end up being the best UK lawncare channel on CZcams. 👍
Steve thanks for that and your support, i might get a t-shirt made with that on 🤣
WOW I'M LEARNING SO MUCH ABOUT SPRINKLERS
😆
Day 7. Here and following your details....
I have lots of green stubble.
Temp s have been 23... 26 °
Rain forecasted but never appeared.
I have watered ...... watered .....watered.
Getting numerous comments from passers by. Negatively.
Now !,,,, its starting to progress.
Many thanks for moist directions.
Keep it up
I did mine this week, mine started germinating in 7 days
2:23 the sprinkler sounds and times well with the tune. Kinda’ sound like a ‘shaker on the beat.’ Awesome job chief.
I have seeded my lawn on June 5th. I found impact sprinklers move the soil and seed when the water lands on the soil. I switched to Orbit Voyager II inground sprinklers (via hose and spike; above ground) with Orbit B-hyve timers. I chose these sprinklers because I can defuse the water pattern into small droplets and still throw over 25 feet with two sprinklers on a hose. Impact sprinklers require lots of pressure to cycle back and forth. These Orbit sprinklers don't need high pressure to work well.
Name of this grass please
I was worried about that seed in the corner after all that rain but fortunately it looks like it’s not doing too badly 😀. You’ve convinced me to do a full renovation on my front lawn in early autumn, as well as an aeration, overseed and top dress on the back
Yes! If you do it share some pics on my Facebook, thanks for watching aswell
Garden Lawncare Guy will do 👍
Used commercial seed with watering 3 times a day in CLEVELAND with rain and honestly it looked like that corner molded out so I’d personally scrape it out and plant new seed then to just leave it
I'v watched every video in this series, great videos
Thanks for subscribing and glad you enjoyed!
Good work matey, looks beautiful, more seed an roll, takes us 18 months to grow a good turf from seed.
Very educational great job thank you.
Thanks for video mate 👍🙏🏿
Very good video!. Thank you for sharing.
Wow...look beautiful,good job thanks for yor video.
Thanks for watching!
Excellent Video
Your lawn looks awesome, I’m battling against pet rabbits who have nibbled it too much, hopefully it will grow back quicker than they can actually eat it🤞🏻
Cheers and good luck 👍
Already getting some stripe action. Great work.
Yeah thick stripes of the first cut! Will be great when it fills out, seed has given a new life the to lawn
A natureza é maravilhosa
this video is a perfect demonstration as to why I love and prefer sod.
Well this will cost you a fraction of sodding. Esp in bigger lawns. I spend around $500 compared to $4500 that I was quoted! Yes it takes a bit of hardwork.
That was awesome dude! I’m growing my first lawn EVER! I mean by my self or actually even with someone I’ve never done this. I wish I could include a pic. I’m praying for some California Los Angeles rain! Just kidding it rarely rains here but there is that saying April Showers bring May flowers... so there is hope!
Thanks! Good luck with your project
That expression is from 8 time zones away and the far end of the Gulf stream and jet stream!
THANKYOU.
Superrrrrrrrrr👌👏
Very good video. Thanks.
Thanks arnold
Ha ha! Thank you,planted 3 days ago,forgot to water!!
Op😂😂
Did the grass grow still?
just a question. in Norway we dont water the seeds before sunset on spring. we do this because the grassroots will dig deeper for water and therefore survive better in the summers :) why do everyone else water their seeds? we get green yards too without watering :D
Groovy Intro Music!
👍
I have a tip for you. Those aquastop connectors are convenient , but rob you of pressure. Knock out the piece inside and you will be amazed at the difference.
Thanks mate
This. 100%. I was going to return my Gardena full/part circle sprinkler but replaced the 'aquastop' with a straight through and bought 10m of new hose. I have a 50m wall mounted drum I used so swapping these two things out means I barely turn the tap on now and the sprinkler works perfectly.
Wow great work, can we see an update of the lawn!!
Thanks! All videos with updates are in this playlist fox 4 Week Challenge : New Build Lawn Care Rennovation: czcams.com/play/PLE2oZRSQ2Rcm50dKczj2Pcr0gVwDmGgds.html
Thank you
Good job
Thanks mate
Nice video, I seeded my lawn about 6 weeks ago,its spear and jackson, im not impressed so far,have about 6 different colours going on!,and some looks thick bladed,compared to thin,will this sort out in time,?,I have forked the lawn last week because ground compacted
What are your temperatures that you are seeing on days 1, 7 and 14?
Hi, I was after a bit of advice. I planted a new lawn 4 weeks ago and it is coming in nicely but at different rates. I was wondering how to tailor my watering now it seems to have passed the germinating phase? Also any tips of when to give it the first mow? It's currently around 3' in some area though and shorter in others.
So cutee
Nice
Method I used in Alaska was to seed the lawn before the first snow and it would sprout and grow when the snow melted.
I have heard of this called dormant seeding over the winter for a quick spring start
@@GardenLawncareGuy or worked great up there. Now I'm in Tennessee and we don't get enough snow to do this.
Hi, I have seeded my lawn 30 days ago with Barenbrug Solide mix. Grass is still kinda thin + have few bare patches which looks like they are coming trough. On top of that I am fighting with weeds and I already regretted not waiting for fall. Should I overseed now or should I wait till fall? On one hand I am afraid of more weeds popping out and on other hand I worry about overseed success rate. I have installed irrigation system with Hunter popup sprinklers but its not automated yet so I can't always have soil wet for sure.
So I need to put down some new dirt before I seed or can I just apply it to the dirt that’s already there?
What is that wonderful jazz music at the intro?! Love it!
Play the video on your PC and shazam.
@@laurapalmerTDGE "Shazam" what? I'd like to know what it is and who plays it, not just hear the music
@@kimkoteles4238 - Et voilà Monsieur.
Shazam told me that the song is from : KUBBI - Funk City.
Bonus : AKIRA KOSEMURA - DNA
So any kind of commitment is welcome.
At your service.
@@laurapalmerTDGE Ah! Now I understand :). Thank you for clarifying! Have a wonderful weekend.
@@kimkoteles4238 - Passez un bon week-end et profitez de la musique.
Great content and info heads above the rest youtube, I am laying new turf next week so I am looking for advice on turf pre fertiliser if you can offer any advice, keep up the good work.

CAN THESE BE APPLIED A FEW DAYS BEFORE OVERSEEDING ? 4 in 1 Miracle grow spring - @t
4 in 1 Miracle grow Autumn - @t
Laurence . My aunty's dog has made loads of patches pls what can I do she's 71 and not very well . Please any assistance would be so useful thank you
Question, i need to fill some patches ive dug out of course grasses and dead stuff, its pretty warm at the minute in the uk, do you think i should leave it till temps drops before reseeding/levelling? Im going to follow your guides!
Yeah I'd hold off until into September, give you another change to treat any more emerging weeds
I checked the description but I don't see the result video link? Is there any please?
💖
That's some slow germination for rye grass. Everytime I planted rye grass, the seeds would normally germinate after 4 or 5 days
i think they were overwatered
i know this 3 years comment. they suppose to buy a booster liquid to speed up the grass growth. this youtube guy probably dont have experience of lawn care.
Hi . Could you tell me which fertilizer to use after over seeding and top dressing. Many thanks.
hello i used this fertiliser amzn.to/3dH0a9u
Garden Lawncare Guy how often do I need to apply this fertiliser
Once at the start then around 6-8 weeks after. You can continue to use it after, especially in autumn but then switch to a regular fertiliser when the grass is matured
thank you such an informative vdo - just a qq
do we have to cover the seeds with soil after seeding or just leaving them on the ground will do?
Best to cover and tread them in
I second his opinion, good top soil will produce faster germination.
About to try this over the weekend. We moved into a new bult and the sod they laid down was a total waste.
Have your tried this seed? Https://gardenlawncareguy.com/shop/grass-seed/clay-king-grass-seed/
Sir please ap step by step Jo meterial laga hai is video main uska Amajon main link bejo takhi onlin purchase karon
Is that what they make rye bread from?
What is your temperatures are you seeing on days 1, 7 and 14?
You don’t have much choice up to the earthed or god
Weather is a big factor!
What grass seed did you use?
Where can i get the sprinkler?
Would rather have a misting sprinkler, not that throws heavy water drops.
Do I have to topdress it?
hi quick question, your blade on your mower looks like its been sharpened on the wrong side?/
no its right fresh out the box from bosch
I've had seed down for 8 days, watered it two or three times a day, but no sign of anything. Should I be concerned?
Show the process...how to set the environment
Hi, Great video but where's the end result? You said you'd post another video
Thanks there should be a full playlist on this rennovation, latest one is here czcams.com/video/TkKmqhqSgMI/video.html
@@GardenLawncareGuy Magnificent results. Well done
How much is your water bill for a project like that??!! Guessing you must take that into consideration?!
hello, do you have any tips or video for a lawn that is infested with weeds? i recently killed the lawn so its almost all dead grass. i was thinking mowing really low and then seeding and watering consistently. would i have to remove all the weeds and start with bare soil? thank you for any recommendations!
Hi, if you have killed off the lawn it should have killed off the weeds too. Some people will wait for and rekill anything again a second time to catch it all. Then rake and scarify it all out then you can start with the seed
@@GardenLawncareGuy so I would have to remove all remaining dead plants right? Thank you sir!
You got any good tips for getting rid of annual meadow grass?
You wont get rid in the UK but a good fert program will help to standardise the colour to make it less visible. Then you can pull it 5mins before each mow, rake it to stand up before mowing and lastly verticutting
Should i add a fertilizer after cutting new grass for first time? If yes what type? Something like miracle grow or seaweed?
You can add some but only a dedicated pre seed fertiliser and nothing too strong, definitely no all in one or weed killers
Hi i have just prepped and reseeded a large patch of my lawn. Im finding this weather is being a nightmare this year. I took the plunge and got on with it. I have a patch which is only 4 x 2 meters, I have a sprinkler but i find it drenches my garden, puddles etc. Is going out 3 times a day for 4/5 minutes just going over it with he hand held enough? I think i have been guilty of watering too much in the past while trying to germinate seeds. If not wet my soil gets super dry very quick. Thanks and Subbed
Which ever method you use, key is to keep thing moist but not sitting in water or drenched Chris
@@GardenLawncareGuy that’s wicked ! Thank you.. I will just keep using the shower mode on the hand held a few times a day then! Thanks again
What the hell kind of mower blade is that and what's its specific purpose? Like what are the elongated, jagged saw-like ends suppose to accomplish?
I think they help with mulching the grass if you use a mulcher
Grazz
Green green grass.
How much time watering is done
Please to tell me know what's kind of this grass? the name of this grass, thank you very much
its perennial rye grass!
How long to water every day for
Should the seed be below the top dress? Does it make a difference if they end up on top? Thanks
its better underneath for water rentention and bird take
If you don't see grass after 2 weeks should you try spreading more seed or watering it more? I live in a very dry climate with 40 degree difference between night and day. I'm only trying to grow about 150 sq. ft of grass but I think I'm not watering it enough. We've watered every morning and MOST evenings but may have forgotten a few. Advice?
Two weeks isn't a long time give it another week!
I’m getting nervous although it’s been 7 days I see no results . Did you lawn ever come in? It almost seems like it will never grow and it was a waste of time abs MONEY
stephanie how did your grass come out? its been 2 weeks for me and im seeing patches of sprouts but no where near looking like it would fill my yard.. i had the whole yard covered in seeds but im feeling like they all died or something
Hello Andrea how are you doing?
how deep do the seeds need to be ? i can still see alot on top of the soil will they be able to germinate ? or does it need to be planted deeper
Not deep atall - on the top or within the top inch
What's that song at 2:35?
how long do you water for each time please? I've also used A1 seeds and have been watering twice a day for about 7min each time. Cheers
Depends alot of soil type, wind, slopes, weather etc but generally at the moment around 5mins few times a day just try keeping the soil visually moist
@@GardenLawncareGuy ours is a thin layer of soil over clay I believe. I have dug out a few patches that wernt growing at all due to bricks etc in there (new build garden) otherwise it is pretty flat. This is my last attempt as I'm sure the clay under it is causing issues
@@neilwest9345 are you using the Clay soil type if grass seeds you can get?
Wish my lawn was this small fml
Hiya! When playing my grass seed do I need to put anything on top of it or just take it in a little?
Remove the debris for best seed to soil contact - I like to cover the seeds ontop top
I 💯 disagree about planting seed with rain 🌧️ in forecast . I planted seeds and it poured for 3 days straight and washed most of my seeds away . It would be better to seed after heavy rain 🌧️ cause ground is soft . I use tool to loosen soil then plant seeds . I just dis this last Saturday and now I seed Blades of grass sprouting up . I hand water 💦 twice a day .
which species of grass is it ?Please
I’ve just overseeded and due to work & family commitments I can’t water the grass in the mornings so have to settle for doing it in the evenings. I’ve read I could cause disease, is this true? I only plan to water it for a few weeks, until the new grass is established. Thanks
Hi andy if that's the only time thar fits with your shedule then it's better than no water 👍
I’ve also reseeded an area in my back garden but I didn’t put no soil back over the seed will my seeds still germinate?
If you packed it down or raked over a little it will be fine.
Yes they will, each step will improve the percentage germination the key point is soil contact and moisture.
Cheers
Yesterday I put top soil down and grass seed. That night we had a massive downpour and now the soil has sunk right down and looks horrific. What can I do?
rake it.
We have weeds trying to ruin my newly seeded area. What is ideal to put down while the new seed is taking hold? Cheers!
Pull them where possible, they will be knocked back when you start cutting also and then treat and that re left when the new grass is fully established
If your getting puddles you need to level your lawn
nos 3:50 pensei que estivesse assitindo gameplayRJ kkkkk
How often should you water a newly scarified and seeded lawn??
During the germination period the seeds should be kept constantly moist so short watering daily or multiple times a day
Love your channel. What is the best approach for trying to refurbish a severely weeded lawn in the summer? Apply a 4 in 1 then scarify the lawn then apply grass seed, or would it be to scarify, apply the seed and then apply a 4 in 1 later?
Thanks, control the weeds first, regular mowing after feeding and then overseed it in the autumn. I have all the products you need in my shop 👍
@@GardenLawncareGuy thanks I'll go take a look now 😊
@@GardenLawncareGuy assuming the 4 in 1 in your site should do the job? Also after this process before overseeding in Autumn, should I scarify the lawn?
If needed you can scarify first, product down, keep mowed then overseed in autumn. 👍
Did he say, “ The Grubs I have in The Lawn “?
do the seeds have to be completely covered. I lightly raked the seeds with top soil but can still see the seeds.
That will probably be ok, covering them fully is best but some will germinate without covering
@@GardenLawncareGuy ok many thanks
I’ve just seeded my garden and raked it in. But I can still seed some seeds on the surface have I messed up?
No you can see still have seeds on the surface that is ok just can improve things if they are lightly covered but they will come to the surface after rain or water anyway
@@GardenLawncareGuy thank you. Love your vids extremely helpful
I have better luck with metal sprinkler heads. Think sometimes i have bought plastic ones that were not round completely and they stick more.
This plastic one is robust but I do admit it's hard to set and return but I think my water pressure is the issue
Grass = Grama
