Glad I found this channel - gem ! Going to be following your method in renovating the back end of my lawn which has got crabgrass. Also finally got someone who is specifying the grass seeds to use. I'll check out your website

@lukes3033 2 года назад

Nice job, looking forward to seeing the results. The weed grasses you had, did you manage to identify if it was mainly poa annua or others like poa triv, Yorkshire fog, creeping bentgrass etc? Weed grasses definitely the most frustrating thing about trying to achieve a nice lawn!

@GardenLawncareGuy 2 года назад

@vivspuffyandbates Год назад

Hi Matt, I’ve just ordered your seed start and dark green and sun and shade products. Can’t wait to use them! Just one question, it’s really sunny today and I’d like to get started on my lawn but my top dressing isn’t arriving til Tuesday. Do you think I should still mow and scarify and maybe do the overseeding on Tuesday?

@GardenLawncareGuy Год назад

Hi Viv thanks so much! Yes that would be fine 🙂

@dmarkham84 2 года назад

Thanks for the detailed video. What size is that lawn and how many bags of compost did you end up using in the Landzie? Trying to gauge how much compost to buy for my project.

@GardenLawncareGuy 2 года назад

80sm used around 7 or 8 👍

@ssaunders2k 2 года назад

Doing a full renovation after killing off lawn due to too much poa. Could have done with a lanzie spreader. Got 12 bags of dobbies "lawn dressing" and it was full of lumps of clay, twigs, stones, shredded plastic and even a few bits of glass. Sieving it by hand was soul destroying, but the lute was brilliant after that. Cold temps so slow growing, but starting to show signs it's going to look good. Got your dark green lawn and seaweed plus as well, how long should I wait before starting to use those ... new seed has been showing tips for at least 3 weeks now.

@GardenLawncareGuy 2 года назад

Thanks for trying the products! You can use the seaweed plus now and repeat monthly the dark green lawn use when grass is established and you are cutting it as its a powerful feed

@justintemp 2 года назад

@Wieczor178 2 года назад

@covinhas87 Год назад

Did you use 5 bags of 40L of compost? My lawn is roughly the same size as yours (75qm) and I'm not to sure how many bags do I need.

@adrianwaller5786 Год назад

Hi Matt - can you tell me about your cordless scarifier? Where did you purchase ti from and how much was it?

@andrewkennedy9704 Год назад

Not sure if he will reply but that machine is a swardman reel mower. It is not cheap. Think only one place sells them in the UK. It will cost in the thousands. Then the scarifier will be an additional cost as well.

@BigAlJones7 2 года назад

Awesome video!! I did mine a few weeks ago but had a scarification rake and no compost spreader, so results are mixed. Is there a way you can rent these rather than buy? Or other cheaper alternatives?

@GardenLawncareGuy 2 года назад

A cheap alternative would be to try and scatter by hand or using the back of rake to move the material

@GmeisterW 2 года назад

Hi Matt, scarified my lawn a few weeks back (power raked) seeded and put down start fertiliser. Front lawn looking lush but back garden parts are lush like the top and 2 sides are lush but main slope and bottom of lawn has alot of Yorkshire fog in it. The scarifier I used (ellinhell same as your old one) I used the power rake attachment do you think next time I should use the scarifier attachment (thick blades) to take out the Yorkshire fog grasses, sort of scared to use that incase it turns my lawn into a mud bath! I like the idea of making those tracks which in turn good for seed and fertiliser and air and water to get in. Trying to get a mainly ryegrass lawn. Going to cut lawn at weekend after putting on a spring treatment down last week. Will send pics after cut and upload to your page.

@GardenLawncareGuy 2 года назад

Hi Graham cheers for that. Yes the fixed blades are best for seeding in my opinion as they hit the soil profile. If you can dig out the fog, spray to kill or if you are careful I have killed parts of it by using a small paintbrush with killer on the leaves. It will spread aggressively over time. You can scarify it and knock it back but it will not go away

@GmeisterW 2 года назад

@@GardenLawncareGuy thanks for the advice 😀

@matterpedematterpede Год назад

I'm doing this tomorrow. I need to roll the ground afterwards, otherwise the rain will wash the seed down the hill. (my lawn is on a slope) However I am very worried that the compost will stick to the roller because it is wet. What can I do?

Once again Great video mate..just about to order seed and the fertiliser from u, just wondered as jve got really sandy soil would it b pointless buying the wetting agent as I'm just reseeding and overseeding my established lawn cheers

@GardenLawncareGuy 2 года назад

If water is freely running through the existing soil then should be fine andy 👍 if the soil is hard or gets dry patch / runoff then the agent can help.

Your swardman scarifier cartridge is much more effective than the equivalent Allett one. For anyone with an Allet, I would save your money

How often and how long should I use the seed start fertilizer after overseeding? Or is it just for one time application?

After overseeding when your seeds are established Kristina switch to this fertiliser which is nearly 4 times more powerful in terms of nitrogen for feeding established grass gardenlawncareguy.com/shop/fertiliser/glg-spring-summer-dark-green-fertiliser/

@harrypaul2718 Год назад

I've just used a weed and feed on my lawn. It says your not supposed to overseed until 8 weeks after you apply it. Is there a way around this problem? Like if you mix the seed with topdressing can that make it ok. I can't wait 2+ months for a nice looking lawn.

@GardenLawncareGuy Год назад

Use my feeds they are compatible with seeding for this exact reason :D

@matterpedematterpede Год назад

@chrishall8128 2 года назад

I did exactly the same as this last year. I got rid of (dug out) most of the weed grasses. I then over seeded with a high quality rye grass mix only to have more Poa this year. How can you guarantee that the seed your using does not contain weed grass seeds?

@junyau340 2 года назад

Seeds from poa annua can be dropped and lay dormant for years. Doing renovations on your lawn opens up the soil and allows these seeds to germinate. With a full rye lawn, you'll inevitably have winter die back as rye needs a lot of sun, this die back causes thinning of the sward allowing more dominant grasses to grow. Also because rye is a single plant rather than a stoleniferous plant like fescue or bent it does not fill in these bare patches. So can you guarantee no poa seeds in your grass seed mix? I don't know. But it's likely that your lawn has poa seeds laying dormant waiting for the right conditions.

@GardenLawncareGuy 2 года назад

Because the seed is sampled, certified and regulated. Just today I had a government inspector visit the warehouse. Grass seed is a heavily regulated and controlled industry more so than you would ever imagine from the outside. I am proud to be fully liscenced and stock high quality seeds which are sampled to the highest standards

@chrishall8128 2 года назад

@@GardenLawncareGuy Interesting. Please correct me if i am wrong but your getting rid of weed grasses jn your lawn but the American dark green lawn seed you are selling this has 20% in the mix (smooth meadow grass) Which is part of the Poa family.

Yes its POA pratensis aka kentuky blue grass. Not poa annua or poa triv.
