Milorganite Fertilizer Heat Stress Recovery On Tall Fescue Turf 

I realize At 14:04 my 3rd and 4th programs are an hour since I wanted 2 1/2 hours between programs. I went back and fixed that.

Man Pete I like u a lot. A fresh voice in our industry. No one should bother u outside your market.

Pete you wasn't rude at all. People need to respect you and your business. Any questions anyone has can ask on one of your videos.

“ hey its Pete from GCI turf ... hope you’re having a great day”!!!!!! Love it every time !!!

Very much looking forward to seeing the results of that watering schedule. It is kinda neat seeing different irrigation control boxes.

Pete, you aren't rude at all. You have a right to run a business, earn a living, support your family, like everyone else. If something is impeding that, then by all means you need to make it known. God bless.

I sent Pete at GCI an email the other day about fine fescue, he got back to me that day. I was very impressed, the help wasn’t what I wanted to hear but the truth does hurt LOL! Thank you GCI

Wow Pete I never seen a backyard that big, with all that water and irrogation that's amazing

Not rude at all brother...respect. I started using Milo last year and swear by the results. That extra kick of iron in there really puts my lawn over the top. I know you guys in the industry have other options that work as well or better, but as a homeowner it's the goods.

I like this one, Pete. I am anxious to see how this comes out. It may have shag potential but if you treat it like yours, its gonna be awesome. The customer trusts you enough to give you free range of the water system. Dude, that says a lot!

Working on lawn heat stress recovery with my yard too, looks like I'll just be following right along :) Thanks Pete!

Today is 10 days!!!!! Can't wait to see the results whatever they are!!

That's what my lawn looks like.No rain in 2.5 months,getting some today and this coming week.Got the milo in the garage ready to put down.Glad to see were on the same page.

10:30-12 is 1.5 hrs. Can't wait to see the recovery. My lawn is the only green thing in town that is to the microgreen!!

Great work Pete! Looking forward to see the results! Thanks for sharing

Pete you've done it again! Another excellent video. I hope you're having a great day too.

Who would be so short-minded and call you? Guys, send Pete an email if you have a question...he responds. Trust me, he's responded to both of my emails to him. The guy's legit.

Great real world video. Looking forward to seeing effects.

LOL! I just did a Milo app about 4 days ago. As I'm watching this I'm sitting by my kitchen window and a breeze blew in while you were filling your hopper and I could swear I could smell the Milo you were dumping.😂😂😂😂😂😂 Oh my. Somebody please date me. 😂😂😂😂

Patiently waiting on the "RESULTS VIDEO"!😎

I really enjoy your videos. Thank you.

I did some black gold "Throw'er Down" Friday evening.

Hey Pete... Love the video, great walkthrough of how you check the irrigation system and evaluate your process of how you start to address current issues. I would love for you to follow up and show progress on this particular property so we can see results. Btw you have every right to respectfully request people not call you on your daily business line. Very well done on your approach to addressing that issue your experiencing. Love your videos man

I don't get to call you and bother you about how cool your Ventrac is!!!

Great videos brother keep up the good work!

No need to apologize for covering up your work number. The only people that would take offense or think it was rude are the selfish ones that feel they're "privileged" and only care about themselves. Now if they wanna pay you for your time then that's a different story, but if not then by no means should they be calling your business, that's your source of income! Not to mention you already take plenty of your time to give us all the great videos that you do, that aren't full of, "Go buy this", just cuz they sponsor you, you give us your honest opinions. Everybody should respect that without being told to but unfortunately that's not how many people nowadays are. Keep up the great work!🖒🖒🖒👊

Great video man! Thanks for the Info!

I’m sure the phone calls are a hassle. It’s just a testament to how well you and your videos help us home owners/do it yourselfers.

Makes me want an irrigation system for the next home I build, also want a nice property and landscape. Curious to see this experiment play out!

I wish there was a GCI Turf serving my area.

Can’t wait to see the recovery! I’m assuming it’s good as it’s been over a week.

Pete, those bags of Milorganite are the "classic" style. They will be about the same prill size as the consumer variety, just packed in bigger bags for professional use (50lb vs 36 lb). If it was "greens grade", it would say that where it says "classic". Same nutrients, just different prill sizes.

Can't wait for Micheal to use the clip of you getting hit by the sprinklers in the next bloopers video

Looking forward to update

Respect

Hi Pete! I just started watching your channel this week. I am dealing with a stressed out lawn that look's like this video, but not as bad. I started using milorganite myself for the first time 2 days ago. But I have now seen another product called "Ringer lawn restore" and even though I have put down milorganite already. I would like to throw down some Ringer as well for the results I've seen on video's are quicker then milorganite. Plus the nitrogen in Ringer is higher a 10. With no rain in the Texas area, my lawn is feeling it. I do have a sprinkler system that needed repair and it's now running fine. But even with me running the sprinkler at 30min. per section doesn't seem to be enough with above 100-degree temps. I am also interested in buying the Bio-Stimulant Package to help restore my Lawn. O.k., back to watching this video. Oh! before I forget the Bio-Stimulant Package can I use all 4 products now in summer.

You were not rude! In fact you should have been more rude! People should know not to call and bother you!

So you're the one buying up all the Milorganite!!! Very hard to get here in the New England area.

I need the good Lord to bless me with a house and irrigation system like that! LOL, thanks for the irrigation explanation.

That's a dinosaur of a sprinkler controller.

My experience with Milo so far... Throw Milo at full rate every month to push growth and fill in bare spots. Use Milo 3-4 times a year for maintenance of a lawn already in good shape.

Pete, question for you. Which type of grass has better drought tolerance? Kentucky Blue or TTTF? Im in Ne Ohio and planning a renovation on front yard this year. Currently KBB midwest mix. Thanks! Keep up the great content!

25k subs soon pete I did a big shout out on a social chat platform with some pics of some yards lots of responses -go pete go

Is there an update on this yard? I would love to check it out!

Pete is there an updated video on this yard?

Curious as to why you would let the lawn get to this point?

Pete, love the channel! We are in the dog days of summer here in Oklahoma City and my fescue is looking a bit brown. How do I tell if It’s from over watering or under watering? The brown spots are non uniform. I water in deep 2 times a week. We haven’t been having any rain lately

Pete!!!!! Need your help with St. Augustine in Fl. It's heat stressed after applying fertilizer.

Keep up the good work sir. We all appreciate you and what you do for us. If possible can you share what irrigation control system that is? Seems like a well designed well thought out one.

I know this video is a year old , but for the irrigation head that was hitting the tree limbs . You cant get low angle nozzles to prevent that.

Pete. Where u get that milo. Never seen that kind

Pete, i used scotts weed and feed before i left for vacation, came back a week later and there are large burn spots everywhere, PISSED! i had just got it where i wanted it. Now it's the middle of july, is doing even worth it right now being we're so late in the year?

I can't believe people who call Pete just to call and bother him. Listen people unless you have business with him with lawn care in his area. Don't bother him. Just to let you know Pete, don't know if it is the same # or not you covered up on your shirt but people can still find it other ways if you know what I mean.👍that is one of the problem with being a legitimate business owner and running a RU-vid channel.

Hey man love your vids! What sprinkler do you prefer impact or rotor for above ground watering?

Hahaha. As much as I’d love to pick your brain, I would never call, unless I lived close, then I’d have you do my yard!

What was the result?

Wow whats the sq footage? Thats alot of zones ..

If you are getting phone calls at you business just wait until the camera paparazzi are following you to every job! You have Hollywood pizzaz Pete, keep those lawns right!✌️

Is there a video that shows the results of this?

Pete your a really cool dude! I do wish you would do more Bermuda tips etc as that is what it seems like everyone in Georgia has.

Does watering several times a day in short intervals give any more likelyhood of disease vs one deep watering a day? Are you able to do this because your fungicide applications will prevent that?

How do you like that knife big dog? Thing is sharp as all get out!! Love mine

Hey! I know you extremely busy but just wondering how this property turned out. Cheers😎

JEWLIE!!!

Pete, woukd a good shot of iron be good for color as well as Nitrogen?

Mine has severe heat stress and drought stress here in NC

Was there ever an update video for this yard?

For what it's worth...6-2-0 is different than the residential blend; residential is 6-4-0. Regardless, solid videos!

At 14:04 your 3rd and 4th programs are an hour early if you wanted 2 1/2 hours between programs.

Wonder why it's so fried with such a good irrigation system?

Hey. Pete! It'll be interesting to see how much you are able to recover this lawn simply by Milo and an aggressive watering schedule. Why did you choose to use Milo rather than your own fert on this lawn? Was this homeowner not watering his lawn at all even though he has an irrigation system? If so, either he did not know how to program the system (which seemed kind of simple to understand) or he spends money on an irrigation system and then is just lazy not to use it. Pete, you may want to go back and change those spraying times to 8:00, 10:30, 1:00, and 3:30 (2-1/2 hours apart). I'll be looking for the follow up video on this lawn.

You don't have to apologize for keeping your business as such...a business! You have great information on your videos and interaction on the other social media sites. Sorry, you even have to deal with getting bombarded with the madness at your company number! 😢😑☹

Question.Have a few with it irrigation.When I go to aerated how do you stay off the heads.Tell my customers to flag all heads and if I hit one it's not my responsibility.That sounds just bad.Thanks Pete.God bless.(I'll call you later)that would be rude if I did.

Did you aerate it before applying Milorganite? The one sold at Lowe's is 6-4-0, 36lb bag

Pete I bet you never knew how darn crazy folks are lol . I enjoy your videos but I wouldn't ever think it's ok to call you up and chat it up lol. It's just really weird that people think that's ok.

Should be 8 Plus 2.5 is 1030 Plus 2.5 is 1* Plus 2.5 is 330 but nice video good info

Rather than trimming the tree branches you might try a low angle spray nozzle in that rotor.

Where can you get the greens grade Milo ?

That lawn is torched. Did they just shut down the water for an extended period of time? Jeez... The Milo is a nice product...cheap...gives the turf a little kick mid summer. I'm happy with it. Tempted to throw a little more down, beginning of August...but I'm sticking to the Academy guidelines. Regardless, any thoughts Pete?

city water = one expensive water bil! :)

Pete, make sure your business number is not provided on any social media and/or a google search.

Hi Pete why milo instead of GCI Mico Green and other Academy combo options?

How's the test plot recovery coming along at your house?

This guy who own.s the place just neglect haven.t even had the sprayer on. So recharge the Yard and watered real good.

Any tips on getting rid of Bermuda in Centipede?

Not rude at all.

im thinking of putting down an app of milorganite, heard its great for blue grass which i have,

Pete would you have the customer cut back on the watering if it rains a lot? I know there calling for a lot of rain for us this up coming week. Thank Jesus!

It's been 10 days

Need a phone tree: “If you press option one I WILL PICK UP BECAUSE THIS IS A REAL LIVE WORKING NUMBER FOR MY CUSTOMERS. If you press option two you will be directed into a super fan voicemail box that I promise to listen to at some point. I love each and every one of you but I still have a life outside of RU-vid.”

Some of those spray heads seem to be choked down quite a bit.

Wait, are people actually calling your business phone number? What is wrong with you guys.

It's far more rude for people to call your business number to chit chat then it is for you to cover it up.

Pete youtubers should have the common sense to not call you at work or home. I noticed 1 thing every 2.5 hours is 8:00am, 10:30 am, 1:00pm & 3:30 pm

I bet the turf recovery attempt was not a success. The question is, who paid for this costly experiment, your business (which in this case it should) or the customer??

love your vids boss,I have learned some tricks from ya and I REALLY APPRECIATE YA..Check me out Mr.Etoyee

This is a man? Wow! How can anyone support this childish behavior? What a sad thing to see.
