- Hey neighbors, we are going to look at a few different things including, preemergent (weed control), lawn basics, etc. **NOT FOR OVERSEEDING **** Applying preemergent at the wrong time can prevent your overseeding from sprouting and growing!

I thought I was the only one who stopped mowing and pulled weeds! Good to know I’m not alone. Keep ip the videos.
Lol can’t leave them !!
I have a drain tied to my gutter spouts and run it to the end of the backyard. There is natural area behind my house. Used to have a river on my side yard.
Good stuff Ryan. Glad we’ve been getting all this rain lately, but I’ve noticed some weeds coming in. I’ll be doing my first treatment o Prodiamine here soon as well.
Barricade is Prodiamine. Not much of a change up Ryan. I’d say Dithiopyr is a change up,,,I typically alter my app between the two. That lawn of yours looks fantastic. One of the best Bermuda lawns on YT
Agreed!
Good idea!
I think prodiamine isn’t very good. Dithiopyr in the spring is good because is has some post control of crab grass. Spectacle is the best for fall pre-m and poa prevention.
Great job on your lawn. I have a year old bermuda (tiftuf from Supersod) lawn. I've tried a couple of "natural" fertilizers, such as Turf Nature and Milorganite, and I'm still testing which is best (or a combination). As far as pre-emergents, which do you think is most "natural"? I didn't use a pre-emergent this Spring because I want to keep things as healthy as possible, but the weeds have been tough.
Hey Michael, I’m not sure about how natural they are but I would definitely recommend using a couple good preemergents in fall and spring.
But for fertilizer, coop poop is good, milorganite and there are some others that do a pretty good job.
Ryan - thank you for all the great videos - your advice has greatly improved our yard so far this year. But I do want to get ahead of the weeds next year because we have a LOT this year. Our lawn is just a year and half old. We put out the milorganite around 4th of July and you advise doing it again around labor day if I remember correctly. If I have that correct my question is - can we do the milorganite and the Barricade Granular Pre-Emergent the same day or should we do them on different days this weekend? Thanks again - Jennifer
Thanks for watching and I’m so glad y’all are getting something out of the videos! The answer is YES, you can put milorganite down with anything. Put one out and the go right behind it with the other! Hope your lawn looks better and better every week!
I just got some prodiamine off yard mastery. Excited to try it this year as this my first fall, winter and early spring in my new house. Made a lot of progress this summer but it was a disaster. Prodiamine work on crabgrass?
Yes sir it should! I heard you can put 1 app of it down now and the alternate with the Lesco 0-0-7 from Home Depot for a good combo.
Where did you get your Mower? I have Bermuda grass at 6 inches and I’m thinking this year to cut it down like yours. I need to switch it up
Wow 6” Bermuda!! I don’t think I’ve ever seen such a thing lol! Even with a rotary I would start the season out as low as you can go and slowly work your way up over the months to avoid scalping. I ordered mine from HD. But there is a good guy out of Texas that has a small business selling these that I recommend. I have the link in my California Trimmer specific video.
Great tips!! Thank you
Thank you!
Hey Ryan, have you used a liquid aerator yet? Been thinking about trying one out. Also.. as a southeasterner like yourself we're nearing the end of our growing season. Would it be too late to aerate?
I use liquid aerate and I like it. It’s hard to really “see” the changes from using something like that but overall I think my yard has looked better since using it. You can mechanically aerate now, there is still time for it to fill in but I always do it in spring. But liquid aerate you can do anytime
Have you ever used prodiamine?
Sorry for the late response but yes, I do use prodiamine as well!
Matt Geiger sent me here
How’s it going 😎✌️💪
Pre-emergent works for annual weeds. What is the best way to deal with perennial weeds. AKA Dallas grass
From what I’m reading, the prodiamine is effective against Dallisgrass . It’s all about the proper timing.
So what’s your spring pre-e product? Do you roll with the same two or mix it up?
I plan on doing the same combo.
Why don't you put in a French drainage pipe with gravel and sand under your turf that should work it's a pain to do it but worth it in the long run
I definitely want to do that. I just have to get hyped up to do the work.
@@ryandelk04 yep it's a pain in the rear sounds like a fall project for sure. I had to dig up part of my underground irrigation system and install flow restrictors I had three sections in my backyard that were swampy and standing water in one area
Yeah, I need to just bite the bullet and do it!
Can you put pre emergent down if you're going to be seeding this fall
The bag says you have to time it out and do preemergent like 4-6 weeks before seeding but this will be my 1st year seeding rye for the winter so I need to do more studying on it.
Have you considered a french drain in that wet area?
Yes. I definitely want to do a French drain!
In my experience on golf courses, it’s been the most economical fix for areas like you have.
When do you overseed between the pre-emergent applications?
This will be my 1st year overseeding with Rye. The bag says I can do it but have to do preemergent 4-6 weeks prior to seeding but I’m a little uneasy about it.
@@ryandelk04 Same here. I'm overseeing with a Rye/KBG mix and then applying pre-emergent a few weeks later.
Sounds like a good idea, might miss some weed germination but will let the grass establish. I might do the same.
Don't waste your money and time with that Anderson's overpriced granular. 2 applications; one in the Fall and Spring with your liquid prodiamine should be sufficient. To target dinitroaniline resistant biotypes of Poa, you can tank mix princep and monument. If you decide to use princep and monument, delay the Fall application until the first week of Nov. Alternatively you can split the Fall application into two and spray prodiamine alone in Sept. followed by the tank mix with princep and monument in Nov.
Thanks for the info!
Talk about only one thing bro...weed
