Half an hour video is another treat for the week.
Definitely spoilt with that length of video we were 😂
Theres only one Daniel Hibbert... one Daniel Hibbert! ⚽️🙌🏻
Why am I singing while reading this comment 😂😂
@@thedj5914 🤣
I over seeded and top dressed 2 weeks ago but I think the pigeons thought I’d laid on a banquet for them.
Great tip Daniel, makes the spot like there was never an issue.
Nice job on this lawn, I'm really looking forward to seeing it progress throughout the year. All the best mate. 👍
The seed slotters have sold out because of you. Mine just arrived 👍
Get in there Daniel
Great little tool the seed slot thing i did manage to buy one. Perfect for doing little wildflower patches scalped lawn then ran over with that so seeds definitely in soil not ontop of grass. Keeping an eye out for old gym weight to slide down handle see if makes it easier
Dan another fantastic job once again !!! What are your views on turf. I have just stripped my lawn tree roots bricks stones etc and put down 26 rolls of turf on a newly prepared new top soil watering twice a day been down 6 days not looking to bad 😊
Love your vids, always give me loads of motivation. On the Kawasaki the issue is the pilot jet in the carb. It’s a bit tricky but if you can get it out yourself it needs reaming with some fine hobby drill bits. Find the bit that just sticks in the jet and ream it until it goes through cleanly. Problem is corrosion from ethanol clogs it up and after a few years the engine is running too lean without choke. It works I’ve done it to mine but had replaced the carb once before learning this👍Newer carbs are a bit more corrosion resistant.
Thanks for quick delivery of products this week. Just waiting for a dry day to cut and spray. Hope you get to Wembley.
The phrase I would use for this year so far is it’s been wetter than an otter’s pocket! Looking to start my back lawn renovation this weekend.
One word..........legend!!!
Mansfield Mansfield, gonna do it this year
Excellent video as always, very educational, thanks for taking the time to explain everything.
Great video dan. Hello from Ireland 🇮🇪🍀
Hello compatriot 💚👋
Thanks Daniel for the effort in making the videos. For those without unlimited money to do a full renovation, can you show us how to do things without the need to do overseeding and top dressing, such as scarification, fertiliser and regular feeding along with mowing?
Did you miss my last video? Thats what your talking about
Apologies, I’ll have a look. Cheers! One other question I have is what is the best way to deal with annual meadow grass? Would it be to dig out where this exists in your lawn and then usual field compost no.5 with seed and cover until it grows back?
Delayed mine was -1 today and -1 tomorrow and Saturday in East Lancs. Next week a bit cold for soil temps too I’m chomping at the bit
Good timing, finish the scalp an can hear the sirens approaching
Daniel , looking forward to the final result, thanks for the video
I have the Kensington 20b.
Great machine but I wish the verticutter would go down lower.
I also have the Honda engine on mine.
About time Dan won that Britain's best lawn title again
Where does the fleece come from and what is the thickness of the fleece . Another great video Dan . Hopefully Wanderers can crack on as WELL .
Daniel, will we be having another appearance from Dr Vree this year?
Could do with another one of his history lessons😄
Possibly if enough ask lol
My lawn is in almost the exact same conditions as this lawn is in...a week ago it was almost perfect but it had a few lighter green spots exactly the same as this 1... i didnt need to dig them out tho, i just lightly hand racked the whole lawn and threw a handful of granular feed that also kills grubs over that spot and a week later the lighter green turned darker... i actually think it was grubs as the whole lawn was fertilised a week before but only after i put a feed that kills grubs did it go darker.. feed was lawnguys summer granulated
Great video. When should renovation be done?
This week, I will be mostly scalping grass 😎
How long would leave the fleece on for? Needing to do my front lawn complete reseed so will need covering to protect it from the birds but don't want to leave it in too long
My pallet order of Field Compost No.4 arrived at 5PM yesterday afternoon delivered by a lovely Polish lady lorry driver, my prep work was already done so wizzed around with the drop spreader with Dan’s rye seed mix then wetting agent followed by top dressing with the very easy to spread No.4, then covered with fleece as it’s still chilly of a night here in Cheshire, finished with another application of the wetting agent ( rain forecast correct for today) So let’s see in the next fortnight how it goes 👍 P.S long suffering Blue Nose had a great respite last night on the road to league survival and scuppered Red Shite’s winning the Prem, that’s what you call a Brucey Bonus! 😁👍
I dont like everton, you should of gone down in 98 not us, ball over the line sep 97 at the reebok,
@@DanielHibbertLawnExpertEvery football club supporters have their woes and injustices but also the highs to boot, I especially respect non league fans with their travails and stoic support for their clubs.
@@DanielHibbertLawnExpertHad to dig that one out of the archives a 0-0 result which you may have attended with 23,000 others, the main talking points John Oster hitting the woodwork for EFC a for Bolton a shot from Nathan Blake saved well by Southall. Then the referee Steve Lodge missed the ball being two feet over the line! Linesman missed it too. 🤷🏻♂️

@@warrenstanford7240 i was right behind it on the 3rd row behind the goal i saw it go over the line, rob elliot broke his leg on his debut too only played handful of times for us.
Hi Dan. If you going to Wembley don't forget my offer some time back ! park on my drive and I will give you a lift to Rickmansworth for the Met line and a brew !
Roger that, i still have hope for automatic though
Lovely work. Is there an effective way to remove large amounts of meadow grass from my lawn, or do I need to physically cut it all out by hand?
Hi Daniel. What type of rake is that you're using please? I thought about a lute but the one you're using appears to have more versatility. Thanks!
Great video Daniel. I've just done a scalp, scarify, over seed and top dress on my lawn after subscribing to your channel and your guidance. I haven't used setting wetting agent though. Will this just slow the rate the grass germinates? Keep up the good work 👍
Did my back lawn 12 days ago without any special products. The lawn doesnt get much sun but the seeds started to come through on the 10th day. I'm sure it's slower without the special potions, but has also been annoyingly cold at night
Why just the fleecing on the edges? Is that just to stop the seeds blowing into shubbery/path and to stop wedds and also to not lose the seed? You made me LOL on the Swiss role comment. Huel shakes are the future!!!
Big fan and recommended you to all my mower buying clients. Just a question on your point on kawasaki's on 8mins. Running on just choke means the carb hasn't been cleaned. Quite surprised st that given the amount of work you do. Andy
Lol the carb been cleaned many times and still would only run on choke
Can I check what type of grass seed you used for this lawn? And what type of soil would be most suitable?
Daniel I need to renovate but i want to also level with sand. Should I re-seed 1st then level once seeds have germinated or level 1st. Im just concerened of undoing the leveling if I seed after and then cover with compost. I am trying to cut at about 6-8mm so I need a super level lawn
Do you ever have the fleece stick to seeds on a new lawn? I intended on covering the seeding in a light layer of field no4 but it just kept sticking to my trainers and lifting the seeds. I raked it a little as I could no longer walk over the surface without picking up everything. The seeds are mixing a little bit with the top layer of rootzone with some mixed and some showing on top. When I water the fleece contacts the seeds and sticks to them. Will they still be ok when they finally start to germinate and root into the soil ?
I sowed then on sunday. I guess I could try raking them again as nothin g will germinate until next week as its fescue / bent and its been cold this week. I guess probably leaving as is would be best though.
Guys I need some serious advice 🙏
I am starting my Lawn from scratch. Taking out all the current grass and weeds by shovelling approx 10 inches deep.
Then I am shaking off the mud and throwing away weeds and grass and any roots aswell as the stones by seiving all the mud leaving just fine sandy mud behind. I will level it all out and will water it over the next few weeks to see if any weeds grow and will take them out.. I think I am taking the right steps however I really need to know what is the best fertiliser/Grass seed to use and sow on my back breaking project! Many thanks for your advice (im new to all this and a bit of a noob) Just need some URGENT Advice from you experts. I want just pure grass without any weeds and something that wont grow fast i.e less mowing sessions and doesn't require much watering. I think ive covered all info but any other questions to help you help me please feel free to ask. Many Thanks!
That light patch you replaced at the start, I've a bigger area, about the size of a adult Hula hoop 😅
Rip it all out? I don't have enough space to complete replace with new lawn, so I'm to just rip out and sow new seed?
Wow DH❤
Hi dan your lawns are awesome very impressive by the way mate im a derby fan id be lying if i said im not nervous for Saturday we should win but weird things have happened if the team turns up they'd have a field day but this season games you'd expect to win we go and lose bet you can say that with Bolton this Saturday should be a rehearsal for Wembley don't you think i bet it'll be Bolton who go up beating Peterborough at Wembley will Bolton rest a few players this weekend for the playoffs or do you risk it and play everyone and hope nobody gets injured anyway best of luck in the playoffs 👍
Lets speak sat at 3pm!!
@DanielHibbertLawnExpert well Daniel we finally did it you lot had a cracking game by the sounds of it still say you'll storm the playoffs mate see you in the championship next season 👍
@@nige.3494 yeah well done to you, we blew it long time ago really, 3 away wins in 2024 is relegation form
@DanielHibbertLawnExpert I guarantee Bolton will win the playoffs loads of derby fans have said the same thing if you get a result like today in the away leg you'll smash it you'll annihilate Barnsley home and away.
How do you deal with ants? I can't take 2 steps in any direction without standing on a ant hill. 150sqm absolutely covered in ant hills.
Raid ant killer isn't working, tried dusting the hills and tried digging and dusting the nests.
NOTHING works, the lawn is now just a ruined unusable mess.
What are the trees at 1650 forming part of the hedge please?
Great video as always, I have an 18month old turf lawn that now seems to be full of meadow grass. Do I have any options to get rid of it it other than dig it out? Thanks Daniel
All turf is full of it thats why i never use it,
No options you will have to live with it because you will have no lawn left if you dig it all out
Will regular scarifying over seeding and top dressing help?
Nice job Dan, did not hear you mention what seed, so interested to know if you used Johnson's J premier pitch seed again, to keep it the same🤔
Kept it the same
@@DanielHibbertLawnExpert Thanks mate, good to hear that, can't wait to see the results mid may🥳🥳🥳
What do you use for the wetting agent?
My h2go on my website
Where can i buy a seed slotter? It’s an awesome tool!
Where's the music Daniel? Its so therapeutic watching you with the music. Please bring it back..

Hi Dan,
Thanks for continuing to put out great content. Did a mini Reno myself at the weekend - which of your products would you recommend - I’m thinking sow pro and grace once I see decent germination, followed by equilibrium shortly afterwards (post first cut). Have I got the product mix/timings right for post Reno? Cheers.
Yeah just to be sure watch this vid

@@DanielHibbertLawnExpert excellent, thanks
If you have a scarifiering attachment on your allett why do you still use old faithful out of interest?? I also see other with a completely separate scarifier and don’t know why you have 2 machines when one will do both ? Is it size or am I missing something ?
Missing watching my previous videos, ones blades as in ye olde faithful, and alletts is a spring tine, which wont enter the soil
Hi Dan. I've started my renovations for this year. I have some equilibrium, Sow Pro and Slow Growth left over from last year. Is it still good? The equilibrium looks like it may have a bit of mild or something in it - black bits. Thanks mate.
Should be , not sure what the black bits are? Never seen that
@@DanielHibbertLawnExpert I'll give it a go. Thanks again!
No luck Dan. I just has 2 Wispa bars 👍
Ive done well if i can do it anyone can
Where did you get that edging spade? I have been through several, each one breaking at the ‘neck’. Best i have ever used was a really old one that had a blade like yours no bent over edge to stamp on.
Had that 25 years its a wilkinsin sword
@@DanielHibbertLawnExpert definitely don’t make them like they used to!
Is it necessary to scalp scarify top dress and overseed every year? You’ve been to this lawn a lot and done this before to this lawn.
You see the results when i do
you got same as me SAD seasonal affective disorder
I used to have that for sure
try a daily vitamin D tablet
Nordic countries and Russians use a light box to alleviate SAD. 👍
No music 😔😂👍
Me and a lad at work have got a bit competitive about our lawns... I'm not telling him about your video's and I reckon I'm going to "out-lawn" him ;)
Tell him helps me out
Anything similar to your top dressing we can buy in the states? Would mushroom compost work? Thank you! Great work.
Do not use mushroom compost you will have thousands of mushrooms! I havent a clue mate as never been in an american garden centre
@@DanielHibbertLawnExpert Thanks
What happened to the classic music as you timelaps?
Forgot put it on as was rushing , gutted i forgot
@@DanielHibbertLawnExpert 😢
How many bags of No.4 do you use for say 100 sqm?
10-12
@6:30 no music 😢
Where did you get the rake from?
Screw fix
Nearly spat my tea out when you mentioned fisting it Dan 😂 I’ve got a small corner area that looks like it’s been damaged by leatherjackets. Is there any concern that they will eat away at the new seedlings?
Well i was fisting it lol
Theres always that possibility
Hi Daniel , are you selling your 17sk? Nice t shirt
For scrap
@@DanielHibbertLawnExpert I would be interested, to keep it going. My garden could be it’s retirement home.
@@leefenton9477 its beyond redemption mate i dont even know where it is!
@@DanielHibbertLawnExpert no worries, thought I’d ask Incase you still had it.👍🏻
Could get your Iron and Vit D levels checked mate
Music???? In the work scenes. Wheres it gone.

👏👏
When’s the best time to weed kill the lawn
i find this process of overseeding is so tiresome! Will it grow won't it grow?...the uk unpredictable weather !..the watering costs ...the added costs etc etc ....Will the slower patches fill in . can't walk on it for weeks can't get to tend the other parts of garden as you can't walk on it for weeks I will just get sod in the future !!! ...have followed every step of overseeding to the letter 10 days in now and negrass growing hooray but its worrying where its slower to appear..I'm shredded ...cheers ..
Should see this lawn now! Wow 4 weeks on Epic so yes it will work
Plus you have never bought anything off me so already you have variables as your not following every step i do, if you want my results you gotta do exactly what i do
I'm not Dead, I'm still alive!!
I hope
a lot of money for the renovation
😮
All relative
Lol, they've been out of stock for ages. I was chuckling the other day because the people who own that store probably think they're the next Apple or something.
Yeh i did message them to say i might have brought in few sales
I wouldn't have the nerve to do this. 😮
Tried n tested over many years
