@premier lawns Mate, how do you stop birds from eating all the seed you sow, both when overseeding and refurbishing? I only have small lawn areas so aerate with pitchfork, rough up with a heavy rake, sow and then cover the seed, but the little buggers just keep coming back and I get big empty patches! Thanks!

Hi from Canada
this is one of the best episodes I've ever seen!!!
Hi Jamie, that's a really nice compliment. Would you mind telling me why? Did you enjoy the way it was delivered or the amount of info etc?
Not fishing for another compliment, looking for feedback 👍😁
What a great series. So useful.
And the weekend is finally here! Great video as always Robbie.
Yes! Thank you!
Just amazing - ty very much Robbie for these amazing videos - so well narrated !!!
Thanks Jay 😁
You give the best advice thanks. Also, showing exactly what to do with practical content...brilliant
I appreciate that!
Another great video Robbie. All the best from Newcastle.
Thanks, you too!
Timely and brilliant. Thank you.
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it 👍
Love the videos Robbie. Keep em coming.
Thanks
Another great video Robbie, loving the links in the description as well 👍🏼 hopefully this week of good weather kicks the grass into life!
Thanks Dcl 👍😁
I've learnt so much from you Robbie. Thanks pal.
👍💥👌
A great video Robbie. You are the guy to ask when it comes to lawn care. Great channel 👍🏼
Thanks 👍😊
very informative video mate. Nice seeing the fruits of your labor. The lawn is looking great!
Thanks Carl 😀 ❤️
Thanks again for demonstrating the way to maintain a healthy lawn, I have learned so much in the last 6 months.
Your welcome, we are only starting 👍
Robbie, I love your videos. I've recently had a baby and haven't been able to give my lawn the love it deserves and it kills me to see it deteriorating, but watching your videos gives me hope that I can get it back in good shape again in the future. Thanks.
Congrats with the new addition to the family, and thanks for watching
Another brilliant video, thanks for your knowledge and expertise 👍
Thanks 😊👍
Really good video, I thought wrongly that sand was the best thing, how little I know. I'm learning. I've enjoyed the Facebook page that was a great idea. 👍👽
Thank you for the lesson and knowledge
👍😁
Great informative video, always good advice. Thanks Robbie,
Glad you enjoyed it
Brilliant advise as usual, thanks ✋🏿
No worries!
I was literally just thinking yesterday, I wonder what Robbie says as about weed grasses! Great video as always, informative, and concise. Thanks.
Thanks Daniel, i did another similar video a couple of weeks AGO czcams.com/video/X1XNWkB21xI/video.html
Just wanted to thank you for all your tips. My lawn looking fantastic. Family came yesterday and thought it was artificial!!!! Keep up the good work.
Ha ha Good stuff!!
Love all the knowledge you share with us - Top dressing with sand is very common in the US as they have sandy ground already.
I would love sandy soil!
Best I have seen
Thanks!
Really great video Robby 👍 cheers!
Thanks 👍
Great video Robbie enjoyed watching the video
Thanks Mack 😁
Great video Robbie 👏. Really look forward to them. I overfed my lawn in early Spring and have paid the cost with weed grasses. It doesn't help having a scruff next door with an unkept lawn full of weeds.
Enjoy your weekend.
Thanks Gary you too 😊

Reminds me of that James Brown classic 🙂
Great video!
Thanks 😊👍
Great Video as always Robbie. Very interesting about applying sand as a top dressing. As you know I’m battling Poa. The symbio products are having a good affect.... also trying out compost teas to up the mycorrhizal fungi in the soil to help the finer grasses thrive. I wonder at times whether it can be defeated or knocked back to a really low level....... stickaround!! 😉
Haha stick around 😂😂😂
The drag mat is great. It works brilliant.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
@@Premier_lawns_official I made one too great job thanks again Robbie.
@@woodpecker80
hi Guys...
What vid does Robbie show how to make the drag mat can’t seam to find it....
Thanks
You've pulled it out again Robbie 😁. I've got loads of poa this year and I didn't know why until I overheard my neighbour saying to his wife all the seed grass is coming up and it looks great??? I looked over the fence and his lawn is about 8 inches long and full of poa!!!! 😡. You've given me a few ideas now....top man.
Don't be doing anything rash lol
@@Premier_lawns_officialI'm going to go full attack mode........on the poa obviously 🤣😂🤣👍
awesome video! im struggling with poa as well! so annoying..
If been trying to dig it all up but im going to try your methods now because its getting out of control.
Thanks!
Good man, let me know how you get on. Get your allet scarifer cartridge on the go.
cheers robby
Thanks 😊
My lawn is mostly weeds, It looks really interesting.
That AMG is a tough cookie. It grows well in low nutrient and compacted soils.
I have had success just ripping it out or cutting it out by trowel and reseeding.
Keeping my grass high seems to help as well.
I fertilize with Milorganite, an organic nitrogen and iron product, and it helps hide the AMG for a month or more, as the color really changes to a dark green.
Good luck. Didn't know it is an intercontinental weed😮
Honestly? I think this is the best video you’ve brought out. Informative and gives us an action plan to attack the problem, I’ve been disheartened with this problem but you’ve filled me with new motivation.great work Robbie!
That's some compliment ☺️ thanks.
Absolutely agree
@@Premier_lawns_official yes this is my go to channel this year for gardening tips . He's so knowledgeable and experienced and friendly . I've already had great advice and joined the FB group. No nonsense or too technical thanks a bunch
Great video Robbie, really useful tips - thank you. I’m having real trouble with ant hills in my lawn, maybe a vid for the future on how to treat?
I have never dealt with ants before
I use a brush to spread the ant hill out, or break worm castings. Seems to work for me. Ants in lawns got to be a good thing, all that aeration!
Your mowers cutting nicely 👍
Thanks 👍 How is the lawn coming alone, seems to have taken well
@@Premier_lawns_official nicely. Prob gonna do some reseeding in places though
Very helpful video Robbie, I spent the afternoon doing just what you said with the scarifier and then mowing. It has made a huge difference to the millions of weed grass stems I had ripe with seeds all over the lawn. Thank you for your channel!!! Keep up the good work 🙂
Hmm! Its made me think. When I scarify my lawn that has a bit of POA in it, I am going to consign what is taken out of the lawn to the Green council bin rather than put it on the compost heap otherwise I could just be reintroducing the POA seed back into the garden!
Great video Robbie, really comprehensive. If the mower doesn't get all the Poa seedheads is it worth lopping them off with shears?
That's pretty extreme!
Hi Robbie, I wish you could come and sort my lawn out : ) great informative vlog!!
Maybe one day!
I think we are all suffering from the dreaded poa annua. No doubt helped by the wet May we have had. Verticutting probably the best way of controlling it along with raking the patches so you can cut the seed heads off and catch them in the box. For the pros, primo max can stop the seed heads forming but it still needs removing. An option worth trying is applying corn gluten meal in mid/late March which acts a a pre emergent. Its a constant battle though! Good options here Robbie 👍🌱
All good stuff, I need the lawn to thicker up a bit before I start into the plant growth regulator. A jar of that costs the same as the cylinder mower did lol 😂😆
@@Premier_lawns_official Yes it's not cheap! Next spring just as the daffodils are opening I'm going to get some corn gluten meal down which also acts as an organic fertiliser too. For others asking here as well as on the Facebook forum a big lawn care company has basically launched this year a product that as far as I can tell is corn gluten meal with added iron. Don't know if I can name them? But I'm definitely going to be having a try next spring and maybe in the late summer/early autumn.
Hi Robbie loving your channel and you've helped me out a bit. I know you get loads of questions and don't have time to answer everything but I'm in a real bad way with a weed all over lawn.ive identified it as. Creeping cinquefoil reptans I think (potentilla) apparently it's really hard to get rid of?
I tried Weedol earlier in year but nothing so I've tried again last Saturday. It's still there but maybe need to leave it a few weeks? Not sure if strong enough to get rid of it? The grass is quite healthy though so don't want to start all over again? Cheers
Google is your friend for this
Hi Robbie love the videos. Quick question how often do you need to weed and feed your lawn thanks
Every 10 weeks
Another great video pal, i overseeded and aerated this month and used a pre seed fertiliser ICL 8-12-8 would there be any harm in using that all summer to encourage more root growth and strength rather than high nitrogen pushing top growth? My lawn grows fast as it is and i have to cut it every three days to keep it at the right height. Thanks
That will be grand to use all summer 👍
Great video as always but how often should you aerate the lawn and with hollow or solid tine thanks
Depends on what you are trying to accomplish
Any lawn will benefit from yearly aeration. Hollow the holes stay open for longer.
Thanks, great video. We have a similar problem with a large field behind. I've been digging out the weed grass and reseeding. Any tips on getting rid of red ants?
Stiff brush
👏👏👏 thank you kind sir! I had been thinking that sand wasn't going to help the lawn hold water better and could create more runoff in my low areas. Aeration and I think some strategic plantings could help one spot I have that's a bit of a hump and lower near the driveway..it already looks sandy, why add more of that!? Regarding seeding, what temperature is just bad/wrong to seed at all? Am I doomed now to wait til autumn? Might I try to seed some shader parts ( they are few) . My dad's poor yard is completely ties up. Not sure I can identify anything that's not a weed. If there's a prize for worst lawn, let me know so I can upload the shameful proof 🙃 I'm in US, zone 5, New England.
I would hold off on the seeds until later in the year. Always use good quality topsoil to fill in, or for high areas, take the top off with a spade. Hope that helps 🙂
Hi Robbie, love you informative videos. I have a fairy ring in the lawn which I’ve had for a couple of years and it’s getting bigger. Is the only way to get rid of this is to dig it out, if so how deep and wide? Or if there is another way to remove, I will be very interested. Thank you. John
Hi John, fork the area and use a wetting agent www.agrigem.co.uk/abzorb-triple-action-wetting-agent-1l?gclid=Cj0KCQiA3-yQBhD3ARIsAHuHT65KUpQ7LjeSMSVS7bqs75w2amUl9vQFgfVgjMConBXR0t2fwjMDL9MaAkm8EALw_wcB
I recently moved into a ( renting) house in Newcastle co . Down the front and rear gardens are a mess . Basically no grass at all just weeds. I pulled out all by hand and filled the holes with soil and new grass seeds. The grass grew where I put the new soil but looked horrible. I bought some evergreen 4 in one and this stuff turned everything from black to dust !! No idea where I start from now. I wish I left the weeds
hi good video,...i sowed fresh seed into my lawn that I used evergreen 4 in 1 in which completely destroyed most of the lawn coz it was full of moss. SO after removing all the moss I sowed seed but its coming along with loads of new weeds like the usual big ones and tons of clover and other stuff i dont know, what should i do?
I have used tenacity herbicide, that stuf is just perfect for weed grass. It just kills all the weed grass and normal grass just grows. I have it from ebay from the USA to the Netherlands 2 years ago. But now you can not buy it anymore. It contains mesotrione and I believe we can not use that in Europa or UK. At least non professionals are not allowed to spray it
Yep, not avavible in the UK either
Hi Robbie, love your videos and this was especially timely. A year ago I knew next to nothing about maintaining grass so your content has really helped. I started off laying new turf and then this spring, scarified, aerated, and over seeded along with a layer of topsoil. I thought all was good but as I looked closer I started to notice different grasses which I now know are POA. There are a surprising number of small clumps given that the lawn is just a year old. Ive spent time digging up the weeds but have a few questions:
- what is the easiest way to identify the weed grasses? I understand it's light green colour, sort of wiry feel and elongated seed head but still its quite hard to differentiate some of the grasses.
- The lawn edges by a wall or raised bed which are difficult to get close with a scarifier/ aerator / mower seem particularly badly hit. Any tips how to handle these?
- how often can I aerate? I feel this is an easy and effective way to promote the good grass whist inhibiting the weeds. is there too much of a good thing?
thanks in advance!
John to a certain respect you just have to learn to live with them. A weed is a plant on the wrong place, so if you look at your lawn and see ugly grass, then that makes it a weed
@@Premier_lawns_official basically im very happy with the lawn and the kids enjoy the space everyday, so not much to complain about. Dont want to be complacent though, do nothing on a few weeds, then suddenly see they've taken over. Any thoughts on the time between aerations?
You just need to keep on top of it
Thanks for the video. I am confused though by your 70/30 reference to top dressing. All the 70/30 top dressing available online seems to be 70/30 sand to soil, yet you stated that ratio was for 70 soil to 30 sand. I have a clay based lawn, so which should I use please?
Great vid. Thank you. Can you share the link for the diy drag mat?
It's in the video description 👍
5 weeks a go I overseeded my lawn and added a 6-9-6 fertiliser to help promote better roots. However, I only raked as much thatch as possible up and used a garden fork to aerate the lawn as preparation (only a small lawn). After 2 weeks of cutting and gradually lowering the height so I never took off more than a third at a time, my grass is currently about 40mm and I have noticed large patches of these thick stemmed grass with seed heads, the problem aswell is that the grass is so bare in these patches, I have been raking them up slightly to stand them all up and cut over them. What should I do about the larger bare patches? Should I remove the corse grass and reseed/top dress? Or wait until the autumn and do a professional job.
Those weed grass will be in your lawn, the best thing is to dig them out and combine that with raking and the other things I talked about, it's a mixture 👍
Hi Robbie, Could you send a link to the DIY drag mat build please, the link above sends you to amazon. Also I was wondering with all the work I've done following your tutorials and still to do on my lawn, if one ever gets a chance to sit and enjoy a beer in it.

i never knew grass was so complicated till i watched a few of your videos ,conclusion i dont have a lawn just a weed bed that i cut every two weeks, now you gived me panic attacks when i get the lawn mower out😱🤒🤕😱,,😂😂
I feel your pain. If I killed "every" weed, I'd have a dirt lot. 💯 I took over my dad's property and didn't know he was struggling so. Now I can use the weed trimmer or his big seated mower to lop down all the dandelions 🙈🤦♀️. It's a mess and 8 had no idea I'd waited too late to seed 😔

I have large patches of my lawn that are ravaged with pow and a broad leafy thick light coloured grass. Would u suggest hand weeding or bite the bullet and kill it off and start from scratch?
Hi! Amazing videos! I have a question: I scarefied, overseeded and toppdressed this year. Is this something you could/should do every year? or is it a bad thing to scarify again one year after overseeding and will I just rip out all the new gras I planted this year?
Thanks!!
If you overseeded, hold off until the following year for another scarification.
What about ye! (Wife loves it when I say that... not!) Anyway, top video my man!
Hahaha 😁👍😂
Just wondering if brushing the POA to make it stand up would break off some seeds and into the lawn! Mowing the seeds off can only reduce the spread of the POA leaving the POA still in the lawn. Better to cut it out completely and reseed?
Yeh same I have loads of fields near me. Its like ww3 with me and the weeds lol
Keep at it! Who digs wins!
Loving the videos, although I haven't seen any tips about ants in lawns, some I cut have little mounds which is very annoying, it's quite sandy soil..any tips of how to manage them.

Great question, you should be ok as long as you don't do it in hot or dry periods.
Hello from Croatia! Great videos,and god job.
Is it too late to do overseeding? Or i should wait autumn to do it.
Hi Josip I would hold off until the autumn now 👍
@@Premier_lawns_official thank you.
No probs, welcome to the channel ❤️
Great video. Also a proponent of regular aeration, what's the max times per year to do it without damaging lawn? Cheers
That's going to depend on a few things, mostly what you are cutting with and what you are aerating with.
I have 5 different set of tines
@@Premier_lawns_official I'm core aerating manually, twice a year atm

chased my tail for years with this ..so i bit the bullet and got a qualcast 35 for less than £100 and got the verticutter cart for 260.yes its quite expensive but so is buying a mower just to cut weeds and poa..ive seen other verticutters like the swardman version but its not a verticutter..they can say it is until the cows come home..its a dethatcher and more aggressive than a scarifier.google swardman verticutter just for hahas
I have a little weed grass but I pull it up and its under control. What I am losing the war with however is Speedwell.... before I take the nuclear option and get the roundup out this autumn and start again can anyone recommend anything ?
I overseeded about 3 weeks ago. Few growth spots here and there but nothing really noticeable. The grass is now long and needs cutting badly. What would you advise I do? Leave it few more days for seed growth or give the grass a cut and risk killing the new grass?
Cut it on a high setting no probs at all
Have you ever encountered creeping charily. My problem is that chemicals are not allowed they use in the US. Can you vertycut it away? or how would you approach this.
Not sure what that is, sorry
You said definitely not peat - why would that be?
I think one of the 2 types of compost I used had peat in it.
(By the way, my lawn is looking bloody great - thanks! Just need the bare patches to fill in now and I'll be a happy chappy)
Peat when it dries out is hard to get wet again and once it get wet it's hard to get dry.
How about mulching? Does it really spread the poa seeds or are they to young to germinate?
Mulching is going to spread the seeds something rotten!
You may have to do a deal with the leather jackets
You should.write a book
One day. soon, I'm gonna try and read one!
Hello Robbie, the verticutting that I done a couple of weeks ago on my back lawn has really reduced the poa , as far as I know . I have been cutting every other day . My front lawn is a different story , after a spring feed and plenty of water the poa seams to be really thriving .
Does removing all the stolons and seed heads harm the actual growth of the root or will the poa plant still be able to grow and produce more seeds .
It will help hold it back, just don't be to hard on it
Question! Defatching, Am i too late or can I just make it? Would really appreciate an answer from somebody ☺️
Autumn would be best 🙂
Robbie, is it possible to just make peace with weed grasses and accept the battle is too difficult to win? I've got these seed heads everywhere, I have pulled them out regularly but can't keep up. If I maintain a healthy lawn and over seed regularly, will weed grassed eventually still outcompete your lawn?
Im in the same boat, I'm keeping the grass nice and low so its less noticeable. The struggle is real 😫
I just have weed grasses as my lawn lol
I feel a bit like that myself 😜😊😄
are there any preemergent applications we can use in the uk to kill of the seeds before they germinate?
No.they kill the bees. No bees, no food.. Sorry about that!
@@Premier_lawns_official i agree. we cant have that.
