Nice... nice simple video. No bullshit run your month to much. Just get to and make your point.
Love it.
Wow???
Thank you so much for giving us a REAL demonstration, staying on point, using a show-as- you- go techniques..👍🏽
The trash can liners in the grass catcher on the JD is a great idea. I bag a lot of grass when I have the time, put it in my compost pile and sell it back to my customers the next summer for use in a veg garden.
This is beautiful! I’ve become absolutely obsessed with grass I’m trying to master the “perfect lawn”. Nice job young man
Great video - to the point and informative. I de-thatch at the beginning of the season, that was I pick up al the debris that mother nature put on the lawn too. I have an Agri fab Lawnsweeper, with a de-thatcher attached to the front of it, it throws the thatch into the hopper, and i pull the handle to dump on my mulch pile (a huge time saver on my big yard). With 2 acres to take care of I'd go broke buying bags, lol.
Keep doing what you're doing, it obviously keeps you smiling. Stay well
Nice job. This is exactly what I was thinking about doing this year. Thank you for showing just how much easier it is to let the de-thatcher and riding mower do the work. Before I used a hand de-thatcher and it wore me out. Now to purchase one of those de-thatchers.
Nice trick of lining the bagger with disposable bags! Great job, thanks for sharing.
That is the right way to do it. As long as your rake isnt digging in too deep, just keep going till the thatch is pretty much all gone.
I bought the same Brinly-Hardy dethatcher to tow behind my Husqvarna tractor, and it works really well. You don't understand how much thatch lies underneath smothering your lawn until you run the dethatcher over it. But for the next step, I use my lawnsweeper. From what I've seen here on CZcams, the lawnsweepers seem to be more popular in Canada than in the US.
Thanks for the info
We just bought one like this at a neighbors yard sale this week- I cant wait to try it out like you did! I am excited as you are to do this...
How much did you pay
WHy do you take steps to make your lawn look nice (ie. dethatching) but then lay down the KY 31 grass seed? KY31 is not a good lawn seed -- it's for pastures, large areas, etc. Should be looking at a Tall Fescue or something similar. Just a thought for you.
I bought a new house outside of Columbia, Pa. in '17. Lawn was a mess. And then the grubs killed half the lawn and I had tons of dead grass everywhere. Used the Agrofab drag rake. Bagged up 15 bags of dead grass. But I found that pavers 2-3 are the better choice. Cinderblock seemed too heavy and was pulling up good grass too.
You go somebody is not afraid to get there hands dirty this will help a lot of people if they watch the video
Nice job. The bags of undergrowth would work in a mulch pile. If you have anyone in your area that raises chickens,ducks rabbits etc. they may be able to use it for nesting, bedding and you may even get a few fresh eggs. Stay safe, Joe Z
Thanks Joe you too!
I use mine to help with storm cleanups. I still pick up large limbs with chainsaws and dump trailers, but all the sticks and piles of leaves I just drag them into a giant pile with my tow behind dethatcher.
I just bought one today for that exact reason !! Bought it from a yard sale at a steal !! Still like new. We had a storm come through here a couple weeks ago and left a TON of small twigs all over the yard. I was hoping the de-thatcher would do the trick. Hearing you say it works did my heart good !! My yard is to big and I'm to old to "man up" with that stinkin' RAKE !! LOL !! Thanks !!
Nice job sir. Got me fired up to do my yard.
A Agri fab towed sweeper may be a great help to lifting the rubbish quickly.
Just got one similar to yours. But I didn't get it for the lawn, I'm more concerned with areas I'm using a small backhoe to reclaim the yard from brush, vines and small trees. There is so much leaf, branches and pine needles left behind and I don't want to hand take a 1/4 acre.
What I'm looking for is an easy way to clear the de-thatcher from vines, branches, leaves and pine needles, without having to get on my knees and hand pull it out after each pass.
Never heard of dethatching or vacuuming your yard. You are a very busy man.
you are idiot
Next spring your lawn will be the envy of the neighborhood, and husbands for blocks around your place will silently curse your name when their wives ask them "why doesn't our yard look like that?"
Gun Slinger 😂
I can't help but think about throwing down some heavy fertilizer in the garden... and then throwing that dead grass on top for the Winter. Talk about a good veggie patch in a few years!
Thanks for sharing. I am just planting out my 1acre yard/mud hole at the new house. Just put down tall fescue and plan to cut @ 3.75" (Highest setting my mower will do). Been looking at that style of de-thatcher. I now look forward to harvesting all the thatch from the yard once every few years! Endless free topsoil/compost AND a good looking yard!!!
Look how nice and green my yellow patchy grass is
I have a 1.5 acre lot. Obviously it isn't all grass. I dethatched my grass. The problem I had was the enormous amount of thatch I ended up with. Forget bags. I filled a 15 yard dumpster.
De thatch when I was a kid my dad called it racking the yard.
Gotta be careful with the dry grass collecting underneath the front of the mower like that, I've had mine catch fire. Awesome job...it looks good.
Was there a flipped cigarette involved?
@@darrenkastl8160 hot engine?
Great video ! I'm going to home depot and buy one for sure or Rona ....
Don't put the plastic bags in the bager. you need to let the air out, that is why the mower bags have holes, for the air to get out but to trap the grass. also if you make a compost pile and compost all that grass you will get even more green out of it.
But you do see that them bags are full and common sense will tell you ITS WORKING JUST FINE.
If you have a mulching mower you have to be on it depending how fast your grass grows. Its best to only take a 1/3 off the top if you're going to mulch it back into the grass. That small amount that's clipped off and mulched will decompose back into the dirt. Anything clipped off over atleast 1/3 most likely wont decompose as much back into the dirt and will sit down at the base of the grass on top of the dirt. This is what is as described as "Thatch".
I have a 54" lawn sweeper, I am assuming it would work too to pick it all up?
I see you line plastic bags in your filter bags. Where does the excess air escape too??
Thank you for making this video. I am going to use your method. Take care!
Use a pull behind lawn sweeper with the brushes adjusted down all of the way after you mow with the bagger.you will see a huge difference afterwards
You Americans and your weird mini tractors and attachments! :P What on earth is a pull behind lawn sweeper and what can we normal folks who don't need ride on lawn mowers for our sub acre properties need to get?
@@bashkillszombies They have lawn sweepers you can push like push mowers. Lots of Americans have the "weird" mini tractors because we actually own more than a postage stamp spot of grass. We love the freedom of being able to have many acres of land to care for if we choose. We fly our flags, cut our lawns, speak our mind, drink our beer, drive our giant pick up trucks, eat giant steaks, fish, hunt, shoot our guns, and love the life of good old AMERICAN FREEDOM ! USA, USA, USA, USA, USA !
Right you can come do my yard with push tools if you'd like to out there 12 hours 😂🤣
@@brandon12792 I hear ya. It was directed towards someone else though. I couldn't do mine with a push sweeper either.
See the comments above. The guy said he has a tiny plot and asked what he could use that didn't have to be towed behind a lawn tractor.
And don't forget to get some paper bags for leaf disposal some state do fine for that
this guy is awesome!
Now that’s how you dethatch!!
You could save yourself a lot of time because you can tell from the grass that you don’t use a mulching blade on your mower. I have a rich lawn just from using a mulching blade.
Hey mate, get a leaf blower to blow all the thatch into a pile
Good job old man
What dethatcher did you use?
I like the way he says “suck it up!”
He is the Dyson sales man of lawn sucking....
I did just say that.....didn't I? =/
Should have kept going up til spring, but great job still.
You need to start a compost pile. No need to bag it.
Yeah them plastic garbage bags made my chest hurt
My taught exactly. Seeing all that FREE raw material being wasted and plastic bagged! To be hauled somewhere else, meaning more gas (money), time and pollution... You name it. It's one mistake on top of another. The circle of ridicule of our society!
Kind of sarcastic how he mentioned going out to BUY fertilizer! Tragic LOL 😂
His garden would welcome the resulting compost every time or even as a free mulch . And you can save money, labor and time without polluting so much. Win, win... all the way.
I really don't understand how people can be so blind, about something so obvious!
Looks cool. Shoulda burned the grass rather than bagging it in my opinion. That's a lotta plastic bags just for dead grass. Nice looking yard tho.
Damn... I got to do this with 2 acres.
... you need a landscaping plan.
Dang! Saw one of those thatchers at a yard sale but didn’t buy it thought it was not going to work now I wish I’d tried it!!!
If that's mine my gas powered kees power rake would clean much more if I were you put in more spring fingers closer together then all you have to do it twice
Good video , like your simple approach .
How do you get your grass that thick? I also get a lot of crabgrass. It’s difficult because my lawn is 3 square acres
Would mulch the dead grass instead to sending to landfill
That's what I wondered. Run it over with a mulcher blade and let it go back to fertilizer.
Not everybody’s trash goes to a landfill, for instance my area burns all trash for power and recycles the ashes.
Great video haha. Great personality
Cool video! Couldn’t the bags of dead grass be rly good for a compost?
Yes
I have an LT150 too
WOW dude your are so motivating and great tips...I will definitely follow your instructions!!!
New drinking game...everything he says we'll use the mower to just suck it up, you gotta take a shot.
Holy smokes you make detaching the lawn interesting. That what I say it is you not the subject.
Always vacuum it up, otherwise you just spread it out when you rake it.
True i use a Field Tuff 60" V-style Acreage Rake, that comes behind my detacher, on another Garden Tractor.
hooked up to 2 to with modifications. I pull 2 detachers ripping up the under growth. Then the rake comes behind me rakes it into a windrow pile then my older 110 jD comes with a sweeper and sweaps it up.
What if I don't have a large machine like yours?
The trick is don't mow your lawn so high. the problem you have with ride on. Mow your lawn lower and you won't have this problem. I cut my lawn on 4 usually and in late spring/early summer I cut it on 3. A month or so later mow it on 2. Give a good fertilising and water.
Looking good. Have you tried painting the in pastel colors or multiple colors?👍🏻
I had this detacher but decided to switch to the front mount on my Husqvarna. Hey, I'm lazy. So, I can dethatch and blow it into the bagger.
Thats the best concept ever actually.
lazy and stupid
Looking great!
Thanks for your effort! Good vid!
Do you bag, mulch, or sling grass clippings??
Bag
Thank you
My #1 is getting grass that thick
I use the same method but would never use k31 seed.
Nice job thanks.
Great effort with some good ideas. Camera work made me dizzy!
Pulling out a lot of green grass too.
Nobody:
This guy: WE JUST GONNA SUCK IT UP!!
why does that lawn need more seed?
Really nice job.you are dedicated,I'll give you that.!!
You beat all !!! hahahah great job ! Very interesting
Great video
Thanks
That’s why it was so soft and cushiony
Why would you reseed it if it's already healthy and thick? I understand getting the thatch out helping the lawn.......but when is enough enough? Maintain and enjoy!
When was the last time you dethatched the lawn?
Nice
My question is why would plant new seed every year? Your lawn seems well established to me.
ikillbugs fescue is a seed that will keep the grass rich green color over the winter and it will be nicer next spring because of the new seed
ikillbugs I agree but the wife does not (lol) Happy wife happy life. You got to pick your fights and grass is not one of them. 😂
@@Gigmaster I agree. If she ain't happy, you aint happy.
I have a Deere D110 with bagger and same dethatcher -
Just so - thx. Do you lime ?
i don't rake...I don't dethatch...I don't roll it...I don't fertilize and every year my grass grows so thick and fast i have a hard time keeping up...
Same here. No need to dethatch. Too many other jobs more important.
Why did you watch this video then?
Small yard!! Here in Britain we would build two house's on it- with gardens, you over there just have no concept of space, (don't mind me I am just a little bit envious!!).
Do you cut by the grass a little low before dethatching ? Good job!
Yes
I see you have a bagger. Did you always bag the grass as you cut it?
Yes
Are you related to the guy from the SmarterEveryDay channel?
No
Will the lawnmower suck it all up?
Why rake to piles just run mower as a hoover
Tell me about those awesome bags in your grass catcher! Great video
I used a dethaing rack the other day in my lawn holy shit i fulled up a whole 30 gallon trash bag. Just from the small sector of my front yard then Arrogated it also.
What type of grass is it Bermuda?
No
@@Gigmaster
So what kind of grass?
Pennington Kentucky 31
Looks like Bermuda and he's gonna put a cheap pasture grade fescue into it....
How deep do you want the detchether to go? Right at the dirt line?
Yes, or a very slight amount above - you don't want to mess up the roots, and any thin layer of thatch left should decompose naturally.
You sound like Boomhauer there, man.
I have a tow behind dethatcher but haven't ever used it, I got a Sun Joe electric one and dethatched about 10k sq ft of my lawn. The worst part by far was all the raking up of the dead grass.
Great video , just picked up a second hand unit today can't wait to try it out
Be careful with that Lawn tractors hydro transmission. You can overwork it and burn it out.
Had that model for years, so long as the ground is flat the chances of failure is very low.
Yeah I live on hills , I burned mine tranny out in 6 years. It still worked on flat areas but hills it slowed to a crawl.
I just put a K66 transmission in my D130 ! So nice now! LOVE LOVE it.
@@TheAgentAssassin doesn't that cost as much as your mower? could you get the same spending $4k from the start?
Coolest voice on CZcams
Omg tjis guy it a better job then the landscape i hired to remove the undergrowth in my yard. I still have undergrowth. I wish he lived in new york. He would have a customer all the time.
where'd you get the bagger
Plant Buffalo Grass and save water and a Lot of yard work.
Kaufeetimevideo I looked that up and it sounds like some good grass. Thanks
Thanks I'm going to use this in my yard
What does the lawnmower do to the thatch, again?
How often do you do this?
Every few years
