In this video, I carry out a full lawn renovation on a lawn I killed off using Roundup Glyphosate 3 weeks earlier.
I carry out the following:
Lawn scarification - multiple times using a Stihl scarifier machine
Lawn aeration - using a Classen hollow tine aeration machine
Overseeding - using a mixed general amenity seedTopdressing - using multipurpose compost within my Landzie spreader.
In the video, I mention using a Wolf Garten hand scarifier.

@Barod52 2 года назад

It's so nice to see you trim the excess dead grass around the edges. So many times I see guys on here just leave those knowing they'll eventually go away but look terrible until they do. So you'll have new green grass coming up all over but have the edges on the driveway looking terrible. Good to see the attention to detail.

@LawnRight 2 года назад

Thanks! Yep I just imagine it was my own lawn and I'd want it looking right

Thanks Lynne.. yes as it's not the biggest van everything goes in and.comes out in a certain order so it can take 15 to 20 minutes to unload.

Well done Shaun. I used to dethatch my 150 sq meters lawn twice of year with a hand rake. A lot of work and also used a manual aerator . Now I use electric scarifier and rent an aerator when needed.

Got the Wolf Garten wheelie rake for scarifying and goin to use garden fork for some aeration….hard work but be worth it I hope.🙊🙈 Some general lawn seed to go on n compost on top for next weekends work whilst it’s dry. Good tips at end wen watering too…thx🤔👍🏻

Hi Sean, great video. If uou were doing this today would you use the Landzie Lawn Leveler instead if the roller?

Hi no everything's still the same.. The leveller levels out any newly added soil for dips etc so I still use both 😊👍

Quick question, would you ever have concerns about the seeds which fall down into the holes are are then filled with compost? Will they still get enough light from the sun?

@LawnRight Месяц назад

Yes all good 😊

@thomaswilson7404 2 года назад

Been following your channel for a while now and really starting to see the improvements in the quality of the videos. Voiceovers sound much clearer and professional than the entirely Mic'd up videos although it's sometimes good to hear your comments 'live' during the process. This is not a criticism as such but some of the information in the blue arrows looks a little 'cheap', the graphics, for example, at 15:37 look much more modern and clean

@LawnRight 2 года назад

Thanks and really appreciate genuine feedback. Always looking to improve and hopefully things can only get better.. many thanks! Shaun

How many bags of compost would you say needed for 100sq/m of lawn

@LawnRight 27 дней назад

Approx 7sq m a bag so about 14

@themind2350 2 года назад

Nice job sir. But why use a tiller machine to turn the soil and then reseed. That the way I did it. I also used sharp sand with compost and then used peat moss as the bed for my seeds. The hardest part was the watering as I would forget but I did use a sprinkler with a timer. Any good work and can please show a follow up on how this lawn turned out please. All the best.

@LawnRight 2 года назад

Hi.. thanks! Yes I'll be going back at some point and will follow up. Thanks for sharing your method guess theres more than one way to get an outcome

@TheNikegolfer10 2 года назад

Hi think after seeing this I will do my front garden. It's only a small area. But what do you use to kill the grass? And do you need to treat the soil at all after it has had the grass killer on before you add the new seed!?

@LawnRight 2 года назад

Hi to kill everything including the grass I used roundup 360... after applying it's safe to seed about 2 to.3 weeks later.. and no need to treat the soil 😊👍

@susancallis7754 Год назад

When you get to the brick wall with the mower, do you lift it and reverse? The video fades so I couldn’t see

@bathams 2 года назад

Renovations very tough on the blades, how deep did you go into soil? Did you remove all the thatch,? Don't you use germination sheets?

@LawnRight 2 года назад

Hi I scratch the soil surface and remove enough thatch to ensure nutrients etc can get down.. so seeing grooves.. I've never used the sheets but seriously tempted

@brickid2882 2 года назад

Great video Shaun - what noozle are you using on the Coopler Peg?...How does the Emerald Green help seed germination?

@LawnRight 2 года назад

Hi on the emerald green its a hypro f110-04. It's got a few things in it that provide alot of goodness that the plant loves to thrive.. cant say too much about the formula sorry 😊

@125phr 2 года назад

Nice one Shaun have you ever replaced blades on scarifier or ware down pretty slowly ?

@LawnRight 2 года назад

Hi I usually just let my local guy swap them over.. but I am tempted to do it to keep costs down

@stephensullivan3718 Год назад

Is it essential to put a fertiliser/pre seed fertiliser down prior to seeding or can you go without

@LawnRight Год назад

Hi you can definitely go without. Just keep it nice and damp for the first 4 weeks..on the flip side, adding feet usually helps. The more things you can do the better the overall result. Usually.. but I've definitely done it with and without thanks

@ianjones1732 2 года назад

You said you killed the grass first with round up wouldn't that contaminate the soil. Or does that not harm in anyway. Thank you.

@LawnRight 2 года назад

Hi Ian, Roundup degrades in the soil and is usually completely broken down to nothing within 2 weeks.. often I'll leave it 3 weeks before any seeding but it's very handy in that respect

@ArryBradbury 2 года назад

If you didn't have the Landzie spreader, what would you use? Is it worth buying a cheap one for someone who doesn't do it for a living?

@LawnRight 2 года назад

Hi you can actually pop some in a wheelbarrow and create piles across the lawn and rake it out in all directions.. just be careful raking when its all bare soil as you may move some of the seeds. In this case take handfuls and rub between two hands over the entire area.. I've lost count how many lawns I've done this way... you can also empty bags in a wheelbarrow and use a spade to pick some up them swing the spade around allowing the compost to be flung across the lawn in an arf.. lool at Robbie videos on premier lawns channel he does this quite a lot

@martajnac 2 года назад

Great video. Have a quick question, we moved to a house with neglected lawn, soil has lots of clay in it and is really uneven. Would you recommend using sand to even it up please ? Or should we go top soil instead ? Many thanks

@LawnRight 2 года назад

Hi, personally its got to be topsoil so its somewhat similar to existing. For me the only folks using sand should be those who have very sandy soils, for example neat the coast or golf courses

@martajnac 2 года назад

LawnRight great many thanks. Following your channel and learned so much already ! Great content. Thank you

@Slimchandi 2 года назад

Was planning to do some scarifying today (3 April) in the back garden but it looks cold in the UK for the foreseeable. Worth hanging on a couple of weeks until it warms up again?

@LawnRight 2 года назад

Entirely your choice and wont harm to wait.. as a business I have to push the boundaries due to the amount of jobs I have to fit in and havent ever seen any major detrimental issues scarifying when cold. The lawn is going to get stressed regardless. Thankfully with your own lawn you can afford to hang on a touch longer

@andycarter9845 2 года назад

Cheers. Love the channel, nice mix of pro stuff and diy/cheaper alternatives. Much more approachable than some of the US based channels.

@Souto71 2 года назад

Shaun ,.how many times would you scarily a lawn from.the start of the season to the end?

@LawnRight 2 года назад

Hi once a year is usually plenty .. more can be done lightly and will keep it in good shape.. so for a fanatic I'd say 2 to 4 times at most

@markbell6453 2 года назад

Hi Shaun, can I ask how you kill of a lawn? What's the best product to use? Thanks 👍

@LawnRight 2 года назад

Hi Mark.. anything with glyphosate in it applied to any begstatiaoan will kill off that vegetation.. and is highly dangerous for aquatic so youd need to apply on a non windy day and not spray within a metre of those. I use roundup pro 360 cheers

@markbell6453 2 года назад

@@LawnRight spot on...... thank for the help 🙏

@jacobhall979 2 года назад

If the lawn was bordered by a laurel and buxus would it still be safe to kill off the lawn with roundup?

@LawnRight 2 года назад

Hi buxus are particularly sensitive to roundup so spray only when thetr is no wind.. you may want to leave a few inches so the spray doesn't touch the shrubs.. if you lower the spray to grund level you can get a little closer but just be "very" wary

Hard to say if honest but hopefully ok.the frosts here in yorkshire have only been short lived. Plus seeds are generally ok anyway as long as theyve not yet germinated

Hi Shaun, in the process of redoing my 100m2 weedy bumpy lawn. I used roundup on it last week and it does look to be dying back, but some areas look untouched. How long should I leave it before weeding again?! Also it’s thick clay. My plan was to weed kill, till it, level it and add some topsoil before reseeding, does this sound reasonable?

@LawnRight 2 года назад

Hi connor when ita colder it can look like it's not worked for maybe 2 weeks and then all of a sudden it will start to go yellow... seeding needs to be at least 2 weeks anyway after roundup, so see how it looks in a week or so 👍
