Thanks for tuning in! I specialize in solving lawn problems and implementing strategies to fix lawn problems. Whether you have crabgrass that's not dying, too much thatch, lawn fungus, over watering problems or an ugly lawn there's not a lawn problem I can't solve. Try the Ginja 5 Steps to diagnosing a lawn you'll be glad you did. Don't forget to checkout my playlist.
Most edger or concrete boarder material is made from quickrete concrete. the edging makes a great lawn boarder. In this video we install espalier trees so I don't lose valueable mowing realestate on a smaller lot size. The espalier trees grow along my fence line and still bare fruit. I was thinking of lawn border ideas and found the best thing to do was copy what I already have. Thanks for watching and enjoy.

Thank you for putting out the content that you do and being as transparent as possible. As a new homeowner your videos have truly helped when it comes to caring for my landscaping - lawn, etc. In this particular video, thank you for sharing the cost of the work. It gives your viewers an idea of how much it cost to do that or something similar to their yard. Also as a DIY person myself it also shows the added benefit of paying extra when it truly is more beneficial due to the complexity of the job. Lastly, pinterest is popular when it comes to ideas and it can be because the creators there share their knowledge which keeps people coming back. I would say you channel is on par with that. That is why I continue to watch.

Not every man is built the same. A determined woman could do this work at her homestead. Yes I agree with planning out everything, layout, leveling ground, material estimate, tools needed, and a curb machine, or a game plan on how to get mortar in its place, finally, troweling the finish product. The guys in video make it look easy, cause they do it almost everyday, but doing everything by yourself, and how far you have to pour is different, THIS 4MAN CREW WILL LEAVE IT 100 TIMES BETTER THAN A DIY homeowner, but I understand cause I’m the same type homeowner that usually will do everything myself Hands down

@billymacktexasdetective5827
​@@jamesvasquez6280 100x better is a pretty big stretch. 2x better, sure. It's just a simple concrete job, there's nothing special going on here. If there was, 4 men wouldn't labor all day for the meager sum they charged... after materials and other overhead, that's a pretty small pie to slice. With the biggest slice going to the owner...

How big do you expect those trees to get? It seems to me after ten years or so they will be right up against that fence or possibly grow to crack the border edging in that time. I had trees in my former neighborhood planted in the parkway between the street and sidewalk that in fifteen years not only filled the space but also buckled the sidewalks in front of every house on the street.
@PestandLawnGinja
@PestandLawnGinja 3 года назад
they're dwarf trees. expected max to get a 10" caliper diameter. do a search on espalier trees. I'm going to train them to grow parellel to the fence not outward.

Thanks for breaking down the costs, too often videos don’t address cost. What do you plan to do on the other side near the fence? Mulch? Stone? If you didn’t have the existing border would you have still chosen this option? Is this common in Utah? I never see it in Ohio.
@PestandLawnGinja
@PestandLawnGinja 3 года назад
It's not super common along fencelines but super common along the perimeter of the house. So I have a few plans in mind. Videos in the future to show. Decorative plants on the east side to help soak up the excess water. I also planted a ton of strawberries on the north side as a ground cover

proper watering is number one. I love using tree bags. slow steady drip to the feeder root. I also use 1oz of floragreen 4 0 2 per caliper inch with 25 oz of water and spray and drench the trunk and ground with the solution. I repeat this process every month.

Curb is great idea and looks awesome, but in retrospect do you think you should have had it come in more (toward the house) to give you room to plant between the curb and the fence?
@PestandLawnGinja
@PestandLawnGinja 2 года назад
great question! Actually, i got exactly what I wanted. i really wanted something to seperate the fence from my grass and create space for me to mow. I'm a lawn guy. these areas are fairly small as well. I've used the space wisely by putting in a succulant garden and also espalier trees. super pleased.

@PestandLawnGinja
@PestandLawnGinja 3 года назад
Most common application is using a chemical called imidicloprid. just know that this is a systemic solution and you will NOT be able to eat the fruit after putting it down. If you purchase a seperate spray called pentrabark you can do a drench around the canopy layer and spray the tree to get faster results.

Hi Christy! great question. that is where he cut out the sod and replaced it with curbing. it was originally all grass to the fenceline. Since then I've removed it and replaced it with a 50 / 50 blend of sand and top soil. it will make it so I can plant whatever I want there.

I’m in Scotland, back garden has edging stones round topped. The grass is level with the tops and it grows flat over the edge. An absolute pain. Even to strim it’s hard to hit the flat bits. I cut about 5” of turf away right around and haunched some concrete in there. The grass will grow flat across this again but it’s more manageable, I’m not lazy but it’s just a bore using the weed whacker, rather like to just walk up and down with the mower! 😎✌🏻🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

the existing curbing i have is already wavy so it made sense to match it. I'm only 16" off the fenceline so I didn't lose a lot of green real estate. the primary issue to get it off the fence 16" is to make it easier to turn when I mow. so far couldn't be happier.

Good to see a nice mix on the dry side, probably because they don't use standard concrete forms. It's gonna be strong and last for years to come. Excellent addition to your landscaping. (What type of trees did you plant? Espalier style trees are so nice and are a real legacy planting, taking much longer to mature and fill in. Hoping you chose some edible fruit trees 😋)

My area is pretty inexpensive by comparison to many states. Our low end was $2.75 per linear foot and our high end was around $6. I just asked several people and other companies who the best was and this guys name came up a few times. I would be willing to be the lower priced companies don't use as much care with the quality of concrete they use and there technique may not be as good. so far the concrete he laid 4.5years ago is solid and looks really nice.

That curbing looks awesome, they did a beautiful job and love those interesting trees. I've had a lot of grass die off in my perennial rye/kbg mix in the section which gets blasted by the sun. I think it's mainly the rye which died out from heat stress. I've hit it multiple times with the SunJoe and at this point a lot of the dead grass is still firmly attached. I thought I would mow short and then let it grow to cover it. Normally mow at 3.5" during the summer but for the past several weeks been mowing at 3". Friday I dropped to 2.5". I want to drop it to 2" and mow today and then fertilize trying to take advantage of the cooler week before temps rise again. How long do you typically recommend waiting between each height drop and can I get away with doing it after two days this once without any significant problems?
@PestandLawnGinja
@PestandLawnGinja 3 года назад
that is a great question. it all depends on your expectations. if you don't mind it looking stressed you can drop it now and use bio stimulants to help the overall health back. but I drop mine after every 3rd mow if i'm mowing daily. color suffers a bit but it doesn't stress.
@evelyntaylor742
@evelyntaylor742 3 года назад
@@PestandLawnGinja Thank you very much...love watching your content. Despite being a little stressful, can occasional scalping during the normal growing season be a tool to rid a kbg lawn of issues like dead grass and other problems? I've used it over winter and to get rid of fugus. I ask because when I lowered from 3" to 2.5" I pulled a lot of dead grass out with the mow. It surprised me how much debris it pulled out...it was more dead grass than green. So I think the lower cut mow was in a way acting like the SunJoe and pulling up extra debris when the SunJoe couldn't or didn't. Have had mixed results applying micros other than iron which really makes a difference in my Utah soil. When my lawn was looking great I thought the IFA Micro Pak made a noticeable difference. But when it was really struggling with the heat stress that came to Utah starting in June, I tested them by applying micros to a part of the yard and didn't see any difference. Would make for an interesting Ginja video to see what your results would be like trying the same thing to a portion of yours or someone's lawn. Just a thought, always love what you come up with.
@evelyntaylor742
@evelyntaylor742 3 года назад
Actually I was wrong. Tried using the Sun Joe again before mowing a little shorter and it made a huge difference having the grass at 2.5". At 3" it pulled out equal amounts dead and live grass and then eventually didn't pull out much. But using the Sun Joe at the lower 2.5" was completely different. It pulled out nearly all dead grass with little live and pulled out over 3 large 55 gallon trash bags at the same setting of 0. Turns out I didn't need to mow it any shorter. Thanks however for the advice and info.
