  • My backyard is the worst lawn to overseed or renovate. It's a steep hill with rocky soil, tons of tree roots, and on top of that I deal with quite a bit of soil erosion.

    The hill would be intimidating if the owner wasn’t an absolute beast!! 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼

      😂Thanks, Jordan. I tried to recruit help for this project. It's was exhausting.

    Seeing new grass is always so exciting. And the view from your back yard at the end there is beautiful!

    Holy hard work, ooking great! I was down around there the other day, almost dropped in but time fell short.

    I just got hydro seeding done last week. Please suggest the best fertilizer with NPK to put after 4 to 6 weeks. I was told the hydro seeding already had starter fertilizer. I live in Minnesota. Appreciate your help.

    Ben, Lots of hard work right there my friend! "The BEAST" Praying for light rains for you and NO Heavy Downpours! Great Vid and Editing as always! Chad Upstate NY

      Thank you, Chad. No heavy rains so far, which at this point I think I may be in the clear as a lot of the seed has begun to germinate. We actually haven't been getting much rain at all so we could actually use some. Thank you for your support!

    Great job, sir. I have a steep hill in my backyard too. So planning some renovation in the fall.

    Fantastic video! Breaking up bare areas with that weasel is no joke. I just finished doing that the other day in a few areas that are compacted red clay, and I was wiped out! I also need to move a downspout as it washed away a lot of my seed last year. Hardworking and it appears the results are well deserved.

    I have the same problem in my garden. Level.it with compost and wood chips. A lot cheaper and it will hold a whole lot of water to prevent erosion and overspending.

    This back yard is such a challenge. Definitely pushes you to the limit unlike an easy flat lawn that anyone can do easy lol. That shultz seed isn’t too bad I think it’s rebranded and repackaged barenbrug if I remember correctly, at least some of their blends.

    • @TheLawnGuardian
      @TheLawnGuardian  Před 4 lety

      It's definitely not a walk in the park back there. That's interesting to hear about that seed brand. I had not heard that before. Thank you for watching and the support!

      A high end shade mix. Even if money wasn't a factor, I'm not sure it'd be worth putting high quality seed on a slope like this.

      You're not suppose to have to take the blanket off as it is biodegradable. I may try to take it up but I would be afraid I may pull grass up with it. We shall see. Stay tuned and thank you for the support!
