Congratulations on getting you an edger. I use a weedeater to edge and I do well keeping it straight as if I used an edger. I edge mostly from the grass side after I mow because I've seen my results and it shows a clean look. I understand we all have different ways we go about doing the same task but as long as you're satisfied with the finished result, that's what matters. If you want something more powerful, go with a Sthil or Shindawa edger. It’s worth the money for less time.
@@MatsDawson I noticed your hat. Love the gorge. I’m in northern Cincinnati. PRG is hands down one of the most beautiful turf species when it’s healthy but summer is going to be tough. Make sure you r fungicide game is up to par and be prepared for lots of water it’s so dry here and we haven’t had a rain since 8/18 in Liberty twp and some missed this small thunder boomer.
@maltedbarley1 I'm over in Hamilton. I'm probably going to wind up experimenting with ironcutter Bermuda next year on a small part of the beauty strip. The rest of the lawn is 365ss kbg with prg overseeds. This year was rough though with the heat and drought in June.
I’m on the west side often to visit family. Hamilton is really getting beautiful. Being from golf in southern Florida I’m familiar with the older varieties such as 419 and tif dwarf and excited to see the newer Bermuda varieties with better cold tolerance
Really liked your video. I live in NW Indiana and sandy soil. New lawn as of last year and need to get level. I use a toro zero turn. What did you use behind your zero turn to level? It almost looks like a wood pallet? Thanks Gb
@wb5lxj57 I built drag out of heavy lumber. There is a video of me building it on here if you want to check it out. I'm also putting down sand this weekend too :).
@@MatsDawson our top smaller fields have been in trial last five years. All bluegrass field, Two blue/fescue fields, blue (365ss) mixed with Hatrick. And our newest one has the Fireball/Hatrick on it. Two hundred and fifty games played on it. Amazing results on that field. Fields take some abuse during the year
Hi Matt.. great job! I'm new to this, so what ready-made seeds do you recommend that I buy from Lowe's or Home Depot? I'm going to do the same thing indoors and then plant them outside in the spring. Thank you!
@rayhollerrr I just rolled it up to maximum. I didn't have the sprayer for very long. Those rechargeable batteries kept going bad and the whole thing was so weird to carry on your back.
@@MatsDawson ahh thank you for the reply. I had recently hard one a couple weeks ago and they had fixed all the problems. Thank you for your response!!!
I've been using my Craftsman reel mower since 1973 and I've never spent more that 5 minutes to sharpen the blades with a file. Works great and cuts grass like a champ. Also I regularly lubricate the gears.
I wish i could see more qbout how to adjust the screws so the plate is on at the proper angle. My mower is older and ive done all the steps but i realized the metal plate doesnt seem right and isnt sharpening all at once.whoch also tells me the blades may have never been adjusted with the plate right. As i use the compound, i keep seeing pits with the silver. So i guess i just keep going until there are no more little black dots? Or is that just discoloration?
It's me again. One of your fans who didn't like adding sand to my clay soil. However, I'm going to take your recommendation for MossEx. Like you, Bioadvanced liquid did only about 50% of the job....@ two applications. PS. Your music is PERFECT.
Hey Matt - I like you. I've got heavy clay soil and the worst thing I could do to it would be to add SAND! Just to warn those folks unfortunate like me to have clay soil.
Excellent DIY hack. I am trying to figure out how to cover grass seed after spreading, do you think this unit you built would work? I have one acre, raking it in by hand is not an option.
