Do you have lots of thatching your lawn, sometimes you need to get a mechanical dethatcher other times, doing what I do here in this video is all you need to reduce the thatch in your lawn this summer.
30 days ago I Applied Liquid D-Thatch from Greene County Fertilizer Company. In this video I will show you the difference it made not only to the overall health of the turf but also to the reduction in the debris in the health of the root system.
When your lawn thatch is very thick, water is reduced, root systems begin to shrink, and nutrients are less accessible. Often times this can lead to disease and stress in the lawn. Regular applications of a liquid DeThatching agent will help keep many of these problems at bay.

Rad! Love the core comparison

@Lawncology Год назад

Hey, thanks buddy!

@pkiknex Год назад

I enjoy these little experiments and that your products do result in higher quality turf and soil. The results (and variety of ways you showed them) speak for themselves! Regarding the last question though, I think it could be answered by adding a Humic12 plot if you were to repeat the test. That could shed light on if it was the D-thatch breaking down thatch and clippings, or just the humic in it creating a better decomposition environment.

@Lawncology Год назад

That’s a great point

@TheMrwright1 Год назад

Please keep talking about and using your own products. I love these prove it over time videos.

One app. The fact that you can see a difference whether it impresses you or not means it’s working.

@Anthony-pi6pf 16 дней назад

when youre trying to show things, try to shake them and move them around less! the frame rate of the video makes it very hard to see what it is you're showing us. I dont even care about lawns but the experiment was interesting lol.

@josepheckonen6910 Год назад

Hey John. Speaking of testimonies of proof being in the pudding, I wanted to share something. I never treated my side yard or the side area next to the cars. So last year after I ordered your biostims, I decided to just haphazardly put a little down in those areas at the same time I treated my showcase area out front. Again, I really wasn't looking for any results. And really didn't care. I just wanted to get some Into the soil for no other reason than, just because. Well little by little, those areas started improving dramatically and fast. A year later, which is this year, those areas are looking showcase now..just in one year and not even really trying to improve those areas, the liquid N-Ext bio-stims and ferts have totally turned those areas around fast. So now I treat them the exact same way I treat the front yard and I'm even watering those areas regularly too. Why, because after seeing the results of what the NExt products did to those areas, there's no way I'm gonna let them get crappy. So I just wanted to share that with you especially since this video is about testing a product. They truly work if you work them in. And they work fast. Thanks for your products and teaching videos.

@Lawncology Год назад

That’s an awesome story. Thank you so much!

@thomasmeagher4801 Год назад

John, who would dare doubt what you do for us.....😂been using your products for 3 seasons now and my lawns night and day from where it was......I'm happy with my results always gonna be doubters tho

@Lawncology Год назад

Yeah, it’s ok. There’s plenty of data on liquid dethatchers. I’ve been holding one very cool study back

@lawncaredave4492 Год назад

@Shunya0101 Год назад

Awesome experiment. This video inspired me to spray D-thatch, Humic-12 and Air-8 after watching. I’m in uncharted territory with my yard looking so good in July. Using all GC ferts and bio stims. Thank you.

@Lawncology Год назад

I’ve got to get that neglected main portion of my lawn caught back up

@kennyjohn3774 Год назад

At 9:50...mic drop.🎤😂 Bottom line... GCF and their biostems make the soil/roots SO much healthier. My turf care customer's roots are full of longer roots and the hairy rhizomes are crazy thick. And these are in clay soils.

@dennispage5333 Год назад

WARNING, WARNING, using these products will make you raise your sprinklers. Ask me how I know. Green County Ferts work.

@TofuInc Год назад

I know for a fact some dethatch products work. I've used them for years to start compost. The pile can sit there a week being watered and do very little. Then I'll spray it with Thatch Buster and it comes to life within 24 hours. The N-Ext D Thatch only mentions sugar and yeast no microbes. Is it just counting on the yeast activity to heat up the thatch layer and the sugar feeding whatever microbes are there? If you're putting down some form of sugar to feed microbes and kelp containing cytokinins you going to have a healthier lawn. No doubt about that.

@scottgieringer8589 Год назад

Sorry so late life gets in the way of my video time. How's it going jp

@mwoody1958 Год назад

Once we hit the 90’s I usually get out 3-4 applications of Dethatch per season. I believe it chews thatch, improves the soil and also gives a nice little pop of green. I say let the haters hate.

@daflea66 Год назад

I used dthatch at two personal properties and there's a difference for sure in the building of material. Subjective observations, but i practice what i call summerbaggin. I mulch and discharge lush spring valuable growth, and when the heat wave hits i bag the more useless lethargic and dryer out material. I collect less than before dthatch and the periods triggering summerbag are longer save more frequent the past two years also

@lawncology I have a question. Is there a soil core tool you like? I want to buy one of the testers for a 1” or so diameter core. Hate to just start ordering what I see online I’m sure some tools are better than others. Have a recommendation? Thanks-

@xBenny_Blanco 5 месяцев назад

Sorry buddy, everything else works but the Air-8. That does not work, plenty of studies on liquid aeration suggesting that it doesn't. Stick with mechanically aeration for better results

@atbashmusic1 5 месяцев назад

I'm sorry I was more confused after this video. Did the liquid dethatch work or not?

@Lawncology 5 месяцев назад

Yes. The most obvious points are when material was being pulled

@tedaut Год назад

The turf samples look the same between d thatch and nothing applied.

@Lawncology Год назад

I’d say you’re right if you threw out color, root density, turf density and actual measurements. To be fair, this isn’t a real test, it’s purely a visual experiment. There’s isn’t a thatch problem on the turf, treated or not. If there were, we likely would have seen something greater and I would have followed the protocols for problematic thatch reduction. It’s a lawn. Not a lab

I’m located in the northeast, the biostims (especially the RGS) let’s my Kentucky bluegrass roll through the summer without any issue. Without I’m constantly watering and fighting to keep it from going dormant but with the biostims the lawn just stays green. I’m not one to say you need this and that to have a nice lawn but I will say it’s has made a such a different in the summer. I basically have the only green lawn on my block

I have a few planted aquariums and beneficial bacteria plays a huge part in breaking down waste. I know that yeast is used to grow certain types on bacteria so it could be that the yeast helps to multiply the bacteria that break down dead vegetation and the waste from the bacteria is beneficial to the grass

@fusfea Год назад

I think all your products make the turf healthier... im in NC and never used detach yet. But I did just buy a 2.5 gal jug of it and I bought Pete's injection system that im going to try with all the biostems. That sunjoe your useing is that battery operated. I've only seen corded versions so far.

@johns1646 Год назад

Is there a benefit to letting the d-thatch spray sit on the lawn and let the rain eventually push it in? Or always water in after applying (thinking battery sprayer instead of hose in here)? I can see both arguments

#1. Man, that core comparison is awesome! 2nd, what are your thoughts of stand alone molasses vs D-thatch. Finally and totally different product. Last September I wanted to finish off all my products and start new. I decided to put out 3/4 of a jug of RGS on 4k sq ft. My Bermuda lawn stayed greener than anyone else's lawn in my neighborhood. Would the RGS have had anything to do with that? Thanks!

Had a lot of die off over the winter in my St Aug so I got The Groundskeeper II rake and went to town on it. Pulled out a LOT of debris. Not as good as a real detach and lots of manual labor but totally worth it if you have some excess thatch in the St Aug.
