How to Dethatch Your Lawn - Agri-Fab Dethatcting Tow Behind

- čas přidán 10. 04. 2020
- Getting an early start on lawn care in the spring is key to getting that lush, healthy summer lawn we all want! If you've noticed some dead grass, or your fertilizing routine isn't as effective as you expected, it could be because of a build-up of thatch. A thick layer of thatch in your yard prevents rain, oxygen, and other nutrients from getting into the soil and feeding your grass. Dethatching can make a big difference! It's tedious and requires a lot of racking, but it's worth it!

Thanks for watching! Stay tuned for more!
I just bought one today and slow to assemble but it worked really well. I was impressed! I removed a ton of dead material from the lawn and it really looks so much better. The Agro- fab definitely works.
Hey mate, thanks for the video. A great tip : use a 48" leaf sweeper and it'll save you hours of hard work collecting the thatch. Keep it up. Cheers from New Zealand 🙂 Hamish
Now you need to test out a lawn sweeper LOL
I'm about to buy them together, myself.
I'm 100% certain I need to do this now, after seeing normal yard and then how much stuff is hidden there. Wild stuff! I imagine mine will be heavy too
Yeah its pretty ridiculous how much stuff was pulled out!
Get you a pull behind lawn Sweeper they work great
Man, THANK YOU for this video. I always feel crazy pulling attachments with my zero turn. I don’t know why. Seeing someone else doing it makes me feel a hell off a lot better about it. Great job!
I have hitched up some straight up dumb things to my zero turn. A landscape trailer with 1000lb of retaining wall stone in it. I don’t take it easy on it.
My dad made me weld a trailer hitch to the back of my cub cadet zero turn so he could tote a cherry picker around the back of his house instead of using his truck 🙄 he did wheelies the whole time but she held up well
My Agri-fab worked well but the lightweight construction is more for residential instead of commercial usage. I am over 65 working solo but found that my Stihl leaf blower worked great on cleanly corraling the thatch to a furrow to be picked up via rake & placed in my Agri-fab lawn cart with the dump bed to be taken to my compost.
A bagger makes all the difference.....mow short....dethatch with the bagger as a clean up tool. Just got me dethatcher and aerator. The bagger makes the straw clean up easy. Now looking for another bagger for my bigger tractor!!
Keep on mowing brother!!
I like the sound of easy cleanup! Does the bagger attach you the dethatcher? Do you have a link! I’m interested
@@TheDurbinCompound bagger goes on the tractor....... for grass clippings and the dethatch. I picked up a used one for 70 bucks. New ones are expensive!! Been looking at new ones on Ebay and Amazon too. Good luck to ya!! Keep on mowing!!
PS.....baggers are available for zero turns too but are expensive but with a large lawn are worth it!! Enjoy!!
cycleguy666 good to know!
Very helpful video. I just ordered a dethatcher because I'm lazy. Lol
Get a Cyclone Rake, it makes cleaning up so much easier.
Yea and a sweeper
Got one this year... and it works good.. 👍
Yeah I’m pretty impressed by it. It definitely pulled up a lot of dead grass.
You're up to 50% subbed now
Nice one and thanks for posting. Quick question, why not remove the dethatcher And use the lawnmower to rake making big circles from edge to centre of the lawn and then manually raking and bagging only a small circle instead of doing it all manually?
Great job 👏
My yard needs work and this is something that needs to be done. Good video, thanks for sharing!
Many more to come like this. It’s the season bro
Make sure the ground is DRY when you do this and the grass is SHORT. Unless your a big fan of raking, use a sweeper or better yet a bagger. Your lawn and back will thank you for it.
Stihl backblower br 700 does wonders in this situation , blow it all into a pile and cart it away.
Nice name
Same to you!
What's with the raking.... get yourself a bagger on the mower and it will suck all the that up. I have a similar de-thatcher behind by tractor. After ,I just suck it all up with the bagger. Looks fantastic when I am done.
I need to get one of these. But I already have a 50 inch lawn sweeper, so the hard part won’t be.
I would bag instead of rake it works well
I do the same but i run back over it a couple times and mulch it and then bag whats left.
It appears to be a lot of work when taking the time to rake up the dead grass. I attach and use a rear bagger to suck the debris. Thanks for the video.
I’m thinking about buying one of these. I have a problem cutting wet grass leaving green compacted goo. Will this work to remove it when it drys to keep from killing the good grass that stuff covers up? I also have wire grass that I think will get the trip hazards up when running in the yard.
I think this will probably work for your situation.
OOH RAH!
Kill kill
great video! next time mow you lawn short and you will get much better results without pullout out as much good grass!
I will have to try that! Thanks!
Do you bag as you cut your lawn? Would bagging help this?
Why don't you use tow behind lawn sweeper in place of raking?
Looks like a job you need a bagger for.
Yeah that would be nice!
why would you not use a bagger?
Can you make it two across so you could do 80" in one pass
Would a lawn sweeper work OK after dethatching? I have a large lawn that I don't want to hand rake and I do have a 42" agri fab sweeper.
I've head it will. I'm about to do this soon too. With a 48" agri-fab and a lawn sweeper that is really old, but works.
I would think that it would. How do ya like your lawn sweeper? I was wondering if it also picked up small sticks, pine needles, and things of that nature.
Yes, lawn sweeper is great for this. I did it last week.
Yup! 100%!!! I just bought the agri-fab 44" sweeper with front de-Thatcher. Holy smokes!! You won't believe how much that sweeper will help. I have a massive yard as well. You will love your sweeper for this!
Great video. On the Agri-fab reviews though, I have seen multiple reviewers state that the hitch on their zero turn is too high for this, are they making a mistake in assembly or could this be a different model?
Perhaps your hitch is the same height as "regular" riding mowers and a typical zero turn's is higher?
I’m not sure about assembly. I don’t feel like you can mess that up in this one. I haven’t really look at other zero turns to see what they look like and how high the hitch is
The hitch is definitely too high on my Scag. Looking around for a good video of mods. This was a good review though, thanks
1:23 nah you use your mates Milwaukee blower
why Dethatche ?
looks like too muck work ...
Dethatch is to remove dead grass around the roots
It is a lot of work but honestly its the most important step in my opinion. Makes lawns look better instantly and allows for easy overseeding growth.
Bro get a lawn sweeper!
I thought your front yard was the back yard and your back hard was the front yard.
Why can’t you just pick it up w your lawn mower w a bag collection
for $90 thats a rip off!
Mr. Durbin. That is not thatch, its debris. Go to the textbooks. There is a difference, and its important to know the difference.
