Wow!!! Great look your lawn Dwayne. How many Sprinkles do you use in your backyard and front yard? I really enjoyed this video. Thanks!!đđđł
I have 7 zone zones in the back for the lawn with 8 sprinklers for each zone. The front is only 1 zone with 7 or 8 as well. I have 1 additional zone in my backyard for my flower beds. So i guess that totals out to about 64 sprinklers for the lawn. I appreciate the compliment on the lawn. I may do a sprinkler video but it will be more of an overview video. đđ»
Thought on why the rye didn't germinate on the more heavily scalped areas... The seed being under the canopy of the slightly longer bermuda may have kept more moisture on the seed acting like a topdress would have, but because you didn't topdress (understandable, i wouldn't want to either lol) the areas where it was just seed on dirt possibly dried out, or got eaten by birds because they were more visible.
Thatâs really good insight. I appreciate it that. Make sense. I appreciate the support as always!!!
Sooooo - Did you get the new mower? The Rye should be really popping about now. How does it look? How does it cut? Curious minds want to know!
No new mower. I will maybe one day put out a video on whatâs been transpiring in the lawn. Appreciate the support!!
@@dwaynesworldlawn Thanks Dwayne! I wanted you to know that we are still interested and appreciate the great lawn care content you provide! Scalp is done here in the Brazos Valley of Texas but I used my John Deere 1025R with a 54 inch belly mower to do the really dirty work. It only has 25 hp but because it is a diesel it has plenty of torque and makes quick work of peeling back all of that dead grass. By using the discharge chute to direct the avalanche of cuttings, I managed to blow all of them to the edge of the surrounding woods. Unfortunately, I broke the spark plug wire on my Stihl BR-800 blower when I removed it to set the valves but I will re-set the spring clip and boot and then finish blowing the clippings into the wood soon. Your dry Pacific air has made its way into Texas and we are having wonderful spring temperatures here. low 50's at night and high 70's during the day! The Zoysia, Bermuda and St. Augustine are waking up quickly. Glad I got the pre-emergent down two weeks ago...
You are going to love the ryegrass, it is the cheat code for lawns. It only gets better when it matures. It also fills in way more than you would think. Looking forward to your final results
Love it. Canât wait to dial up the StripeAction!!! I appreciate the comment đđ»
Dwayne, your yard reminds me of Fred Rogers and the Applebee's restaurants "Your lawn is looking good in the neighborhood!"
I am not going to lieâŠ. I am a fan of Applebees. I appreciate the compliment đđ»
Nothing stripes like Rye. Absolutely love it.
I agree. Itâs hard to compete with Rye stripes. I appreciate the comment đđ»
Another question I have is why kill it off when it should go dormant and the Bermuda kicks in in April to May from where I am located.
Theory is the rye will go dormant, Bermuda comes in and then rye comes back in the fall.
Thanks
Just remembered I put some fall pre emergent down so Iâll have to wait until next fall
lol
What is your thoughts on the new Cali trimmers that came out?
Some people believe in your theory, where when heating up the rye will die off and Bermuda will come out and this may hold true for parts or even possibly most of the lawn. Although Iâm far from being an expert but if herbicide timed at the right time of transition this will avoid what they refer to a clumping rye. Clumpy rye is very to kill and therefore the Bermuda will not thrive in these areas and will not look right from a appearance standpoint. Bermuda generally needs a good 4 to 5 months of the growing year to stay healthy. If rye stick around too long it pushes that window which isnât good for Bermuda. I have also read that rye grass does have a chemical it releases that can harm the Bermuda which makes it harder to compete but Bermuda being Bermuda will ultimately win unless there is shade where the rye would do much better. Hope this helps explain why you should spray it out in the spring. đđ»
Itâs looks like a great mower from the pictures. As soon as i learn more i will prob talk about it on my channel so stay tuned. Yes if you put down preemergent donât overseed. đđ»
Great video! I as well am thinking real hard on overseeding here in GA with PRG
Any recommendations on seed?
Thanks
Berenburg is great grass seed. I purchased mine from Ewing which may or maybe not in area. Ryan knorr makes a great seed. Lots of options. đđ»
Dwayne, really enjoyed talking. I didnât realize I was interrupting those killer stripes. Rye is amazing to stripe
Lol. Thanks Lee. It was a pleasure. Thank you as always for the tremendous support đđ»
What is that light shade thing you have going on? (in the start of the video)
Itâs a canopy that i purchase to cover my kids swimming pool. I decided to leave it up for now.
I hope you programmed this to load early because it is only 4:31 AM on the West Coast!
Yes i did but truthfully i am at work by 430a in any event. I sometime put videos out based on EST just because many viewers are in a different time zone than me and itâs 730am on the east coast. đđ»
@@dwaynesworldlawn Soooo have you received a big package from RR yet? Inquiring minds want to know! We are also anxiously awaiting the results of the re-reseeding. Keep up the great work - your channel is entertaining AND full of valuable information for us to use on our lawns and equipment.. Thanks for all the hard work putting these episodes and seasons together - it is very much appreciated!
Looking good for the first go around! I always end up putting a light overseed about two weeks after to fill in spots that may have come in a little thin. I canât wait to see your new Revolution! I just bought two Toro GMâs this past season so I think Iâll be content with those for a while, but the Revolution looks legit!
Thanks Andrew!!! My GM needs a reel replacement as it has too many blades. Lol. Very excited about the Revolution!!! Canât wait
Great stuff Dwayne. I have to say ur much braver than me on overseeding the Bermuda. Iâve been wanting to but I want to see how next year goes for you as far as weeds. What height are you mowing your rye? Keep the informative vids coming n good luck!
I have the height of cut at about an inch right now. I will prob drop to 3/4 but somewhere between 3/4 and 1 inch looks great with Rye. I donât worry too much weeds and itâs because ultimately i am going to kill off the rye with celicus and or in combo with Celicus. The only reason for the addition of celcius is because of poa that will come up. Either way when spraying it out Iâll pretty much clear all the weed so the Bermuda can take over.
Anyone know what happen with this channel?
Iâm back. Just released a update video today đđ»
