    yes you can put this in your hand can sprayer or your own hose end sprayer.
    The recommended application timing is every 3 months so if you have cool season grass, one application should get you through summer.
    Warm season turf, whenever your dry season hits is a good time.

    Love those Gilmour sprinklers. I had 1 and bought 4 more, placed them on a 4 port timer and created my poor mans irrigation system. Because my yard is so irregular in shape those things are easily customizable and do a fantastic job.

    As a recent new home owner in the first summer season without an irrigation system, I have been fighting the awkward shapes of the lot. I’m immediately buying this sprinkler... Great video as always.

    Excellent teaching strategies. This will be my second year doing my yard. I’m going to be doing my soil test this week. By the way I love your videos and your store YardMastery. Each product has a video explaining how to use a product. That’s brilliant. You were the first person who popped up on CZcams when I was first learning how take care of my lawn. I’m so happy I found your videos. You make learning fun and give us novice lawn care nuts the desire to learn and the confidence to go out there and throw it down responsibly. Thank u so much.

    Did the tuna can challenge last year, once I knew what it took to get a half inch on the lawn every time I water, it greatly improved my lawn. Before I just guessed and the lawn would get stressed. Now, it gets the water it needs and it's been lush and green since then. It sounds like a lot of work, but it really isn't. All you have to do is place the tuna cans, and the sprinklers will do the rest, all that is left is checking it and adjusting. But you can easily guess how much more time you need.
    Happy fathers day, Allen! Spent mine mowing and admiring my lawn. Thanks for the "tips"! My knowledge has greatly improved.

  • @DIYDad1

    @grass-patch Před 5 lety +1

    I’ve used that same impact sprayer -- very flexible and efficient. Other times I’ll just manually hand spray with a pistol type nozzle that varies the spray when squeezing the handle. It’s a good way to wind down the day with sprayer in one hand and beverage in the other or a good cup of joe during early morning watering.
    Happy Father’s Day…

    I actually put down some Hydretain this morning. I bought the small hose end jug to treat my main and side stages. I used a sprinkler to water in. Hope this stuff works! I have no irrigation but would easily see me buying more if it does what it says it does. Results hours later seem to be positive. Greening up quicker than the last time I watered without it at about the same amount of water. Maybe it's my imagination.

  • @mikevasapollo6349
    @mikevasapollo6349 Před 5 lety

    I have the same exact sprinkler with basically the same issue , going up to high even after adjusting it, What I ended up doing ( it fixed the shimmying issue too from high pressure ) was I added 2 small camping stakes screwed into the back and another dead center in the other side with 2 small screws holding each. Works perfectly but that ring you lift up gets aged and cracked after awhile. Best sprinkler for my type of lawn though. Thank you for the video.

    Love your videos Allyn. You’re the man. Thank you for such educational videos. Love this channel. Humic acid is my go-to now. Love that stuff. BioKelp Humic 0-4-6 from Simplot is like medicine for the lawn.
    Humic acid: Helps release nutrients in the soil - more readily available to the plant.
    Improves soil structure - retains nutrients - doesn't leach thru as much.
    Helps loosen up soil, air flow to the root zone.
    Helps buffer soil pH. High pH.
    Helps with root density. Root growth. Increases root depth.
    Helps resist disease.
    Helps with moisture retention. ESP with sandy soils in conjunction with wetting agent.
    Love the stuff.

    I'm going to start using hydretain because irrigation costs are killer. When decreasing my watering, should I back of frequency or length of watering? Like if I currently water twice a week for 20 minutes then should I switch to once a week for 20 or twice a week for 10?

    I've had to diligently mow ever second day for weeks to maintain the rule of thirds. I was supposed to mow today, but it never stopped raining. I had no idea how much work is required to maintain a beautiful lawn.

    I recently picked up a timer that shuts the water of after a preset amount of time. That is adding a lot of convenience to this one sprinkler at a time game. You could just literally set it and forget it. Just set the timer and go after other things, come back eventually, reposition the sprinkler, set the time and leave again.
