    Quick thing I forgot to mention. Water this mix in 12-24 hours afterwards to get anything left on the grass into the soil 👍🏽

    Is there a basic formula. Ie I only need 8 liters on my lawn so what would be good mix . Ie kelp I have some iron sulphate but dint understand the dry mix ratio . Humic acid and and green nitrogen . Hope this makes sense but should I add anything else ? Looking to condition soil and green the lawn .

  • @jdrobbi
    @jdrobbi Před 6 lety +1

    I knew the humic acid & sea kelp would be in there...that mix is essentially Greene County Fertilizer's RGS that I'm using.
    It ain't gonna burn the lawn.
    Putting humic down tomorrow.
    Vegemite? Tried it once about 25 years ago...still haven't got the taste out of my mouth. Definitely an acquired taste.
    Lawn looks killer. Keep up the great work.
    Well wishes to the wife & kids as well.

    • @LawnTips
      @LawnTips  Před 6 lety +1

      Is that really what RGS is? There you go. Perfect 👌🏽
      Haha yeah a lot of people hate vegemite. Definitely an acquired taste.
      Back at you and your family as well mate! Enjoy the warm weather.

    • @jdrobbi
      @jdrobbi Před 6 lety

      Lawn Tips RGS is humic acid, fulvic acid & sea kelp. Really Good Stuff (or not, I have no idea).
      Still waiting for the warm weather to really set in. Had a few days in the 80's, but still mostly 60's & low 70's. I haven't opened our pool yet.

    • @LawnTips
      @LawnTips  Před 6 lety +1

      Yeah nice! There you go. Learn something new everyday.
      Oh really? Warmer than here anyway. Enjoy it!

  • @GregPhillip
    @GregPhillip Před 5 lety

    I have bought all these products and i done a jar test.... I'm finding it separates if i leave it in the jar for a hour or so ? I have been experimenting....its seems like the Humic acid is the cause ...when I mix Humic acid on its own with water its fine and dissolves...but combined with these others ...it splits in the jug test ... I love your video's...cheers

    Hi dude from uk
    What ratio do you ratio/mix the humic acid and liquid seaweed to water in.
    Thanks mate this vid spurred me to buying humic and liquid seaweed.
    Kinda new to liquid applications so any help would be great mate
    Thanks 👍🏻

  • @Bossko1986
    @Bossko1986 Před 5 lety

    Do you use tap water in your mixs? I always thought rain water would be better due to the chlorine in the tap water

  • @bucky5063
    @bucky5063 Před 5 lety

    You can get organic liquid humic acid, organic sea kelp, and superthrive on Amazon in the US. Just mixed and dropped on my lawn. Fingers crossed my soil improves

  • @lawncarenoob6698
    @lawncarenoob6698 Před 6 lety +1

    Great vid mate. What about couch grass that has actually gone dormant. Would the root zone still benefit from soil amendments and kelp type liquid products?

    • @LawnTips
      @LawnTips  Před 6 lety

      Hey mate!
      Yes and no. Wouldn’t really do much cause the plant won’t take it up. Bit will kick start you yard for next season. I’d only apply 1-2 times though.
      Better to do when the grass is growing though

  • @gregoryconran
    @gregoryconran Před 5 lety

    Yo Mate What Up?
    Qtns?
    1/ Can you pre mix this solution and keep it in a larger container.. ie so you dont have to add it bit by bit each time..?
    2/ Do you just add enough water to make it through the yard... ie if you know the level you need to use on the solo sprayer to get one full application of front and back yard - do you just fill the napsak to that level or do you pretty much use the ingredients only and not diluted much... the reason I ask is you say to water it in.... well its pretty diluted to cover my yard - ie same size solo sprayer is full to the brim ... seems that watering it in will dilute it even more (30 mins water?) I get that after absorbed by leaf.. it needs to get to soil so washing it off works, but how long do you need to water if already diluted?
    3/ Why ha sa player Like Gerrard never won the EPL
    4/ Is Moh Tikka Masala - a Ball hog?
    5/ Is this Finally the year?

    Love it. Looking to add the humid acid, stimulizer and liquid iron to my arsenal over winter. I'm currently putting down seaweed secrets, activ8mate and soil wetter monthly. Can I add the others to this or do it separately say one week removed?

    • @LawnTips
      @LawnTips  Před 6 lety

      You can add the others definitely!

  • @imcarlvideos

    • @LawnTips
      @LawnTips  Před 6 lety +1

      Hey mate! You sure can 👍🏽
      Also yes you can add fertiliser you the mix that’s fine! Just go recommend rate and it will be sweet

  • @normalguy7898
    @normalguy7898 Před 4 lety

    When you spray this stuff and other chemicals, do you like immediately take off the clothes and put them in wash and take a shower? How do you not get sick with that and the pesticides?

    Nice mix...I use a similar one using RGS which has Humic, Fulvic Acid and Kelp, I add extra Kelp (1 ounce) I found on amazon, iron and 1 ounce of epsom salt, miracle gro as well for a lil fert...thx for posting this.

    • @LawnTips
      @LawnTips  Před 6 lety

      Awesome! Sounds like your already doing it. Not so secret after all haha.
      Great mix though. So good for the lawn.

    • @juliocs5483
      @juliocs5483 Před 6 lety +1

      Yes Sir lawn loves it...I needed a lil green up and this does it...this mix probably cost less than a $1... I rather do the mix rather than buying Milogranite for $13.

    • @LawnTips
      @LawnTips  Před 6 lety

      Awesome. I’ve heard so much about milo it’s not funny. I’d be interested to give it a trial run though.

    Another Great video Ben, But my OCD wouldn't be able to cope with those leaves on your front lawn Lol, I'd have to get out there and hand pick them up, that tree has to go Mate......We just got rid of my nightmare tree yesterday that would drop leaves and I'd get out there twice a day to pick up the leaves with a bucket Lol 😂. Cheers Nellie 👍👍

    • @LawnTips

      I just put in recommend rate that was on the label. Nothing fancy. So whatever product you buy yourself just go by the recommend rate 👍🏽

    Basically you got it down that's the og real deal concept, player..RGS essentially tee's us up for less mixing conveniently for applications out in the field...does that seem lazy? Anyhow that's the works, yeah
    Great video and an amazing lawn, bruh!! Keep it lit, mate!

    • @LawnTips
      @LawnTips  Před 6 lety

      Thanks legend!
      Yeah I suppose it would be similar to RGS, I’m not exactly sure what’s in those products to be honest. Haven’t really looked into it!

    • @LawnTips
      @LawnTips  Před 6 lety

      You should be able to buy kelp products over there. Pretty sure the NEXT products have got a kelp product. Have you heard to the NEXT products by green county fertiliser?

    • @shawnenloe7556
      @shawnenloe7556 Před 6 lety +1

      Lawn Tips Thanks. Not sure what to get yet. Seems like I need to buy some sort of combo since I’m a diy homeowner. I have Kentucky Bluegrass and mow at 2.5 inches. Live in Iowa(Midwest) cool season grass and it is mostly clay. I have irrigation. Would like deeper roots and thicker lawn.

    • @LawnTips
      @LawnTips  Před 6 lety

      Using those products should help with roots and thickness!
      Nothing wrong with a DIY homeowner mate 👍🏽

  • @b-rent4733
    @b-rent4733 Před 6 lety

    Great vids! Tons of info and you keep it funny. I'm over in New Hamspire and i was wondering about your mix. I'm trying to figure out the conversion for us folks in the US. How many sq ft is your lawn? I have about 20k and it looks like a lot of the products you use go a long way. Thx

    • @LawnTips
      @LawnTips  Před 6 lety +1

      Thanks mate!
      So my lawn would be about 4000sq ft.
      Your yard is massive!!
      All the products I use do go quite a long way!
      A similar product over there would be some of the green county fertiliser range. They sell some similar products from what I’ve heard.
      (I find mixing it yourself is cheaper though)

    • @b-rent4733
      @b-rent4733 Před 6 lety

      Lawn Tips thanks. It's definitely a lot of work but it's rewarding. I'll check those brands out. I had the chance to visit Queensland, Australia for six weeks back in 2007 with the Marines and loved it there. One day I'll be back. Keep up the good work!

    • @LawnTips
