Thank you Alec; I would never have found this out without your video, but boy it saved me a lot of time restringing my 60v Toro String Trimmer.
Thank you for this! Been looking at videos but no one seemed to have the same model of trimmer that I have
Harvest them I hear they are edible. Look it up.
Let me know how that works on Centipede
I would recommend taking the battery off first.
You should seen mine, my neighbor yard is only weeds, and im talking weeds you never seen before
How do I get rid of them out my mulch? And if I cover them with a fresh layer of mulch will they grow?
Do have links to buy those products?
How did the 'one pound' of AMS to '2 gallons of water' work out for ya...??
Worked good. Nice green up
Those are harmful chemicals!
What about mulched flower beds? Can't mow those.
WHAT IS THE NAME OF THE SPEED FEED HEAD AND WHERE DID YOU BUY IT IS IT A KIT OR UNIVERSAL HEAD OR MADE FOR TORO
Speed feed head is the name. It came on the toro. But they do have universal kits
I have discovered that clover smothers other unwanted plants including crabgrass and Bermudagrass. I did nothing. by itself year by year clovers spread over the whole lawn gradually.Crabgrasses were so stubborn, they are all gone!! Later I saw articles on Google supporting this
I just came across this video trying to figure out if my method was incorrect..and wow, it was! I was taking the head apart and winding the thread and it would work for a min then come out! Thank you for sharing this method!
I want that head. My machine is a beast to change the string
Thanks sir ❤
.25 lbs. of AMS is on the heavy side for spraying. Make sure you water it in so it doesn't burn your grass.
its okay to say craftsman is a better bagging and sunction system--toro is so overrated
Straight up n simple- like it - new sub
Very cool, guys!
Allison looks really nice. Why are you trying to kill her?
In the ocean?
Allison is awesome 😊 One of the most informative video I have seen compared to other Lawn Experts TY. I will most definitely check out the video identifying other weeds 😊 can wait to see . TY
Thought you were going to give a better solution!
My lawn mower don’t pick these up worth a damn
Im bouta sweep em up and dump em 50 mi north on abanded factor lots
Thank you! Never would've known.
how do you install the Speed Feed on the toro/would love see a video for that.
Maybe you should try Pennington sun and shade mix, smart seed, under that tree. It might take hold.
If it wasn't for Crabgrass, i'd have no lawn at all....
I want to buy a two and a half gallon I using on about 10 different yards but I know that is like $421
Yes I have that stuff it works great
Also you did not use a surfactant like Methylated Seed Soil
Don't have to. Kills just fine without it. Got great results
@@alecslawnadventures9728 Oh Ok
One praise for crabgrass is, it will grow in oil soaking ground and clean the soil. Another is that it will grow in highly compacted soil and the tuber root system breaks up that compaction to let water and microbes into the soil.
I'm learning a lot about identifying certain weeds and how to control them from your videos. While watching this one I noticed at :46 into it you have on the house downspout a filtering device. What is the name brand and do those actually work? My yard needs all the help it can get, lol. Thanks, keep the tips coming!
Thank you. Not sure the brand but I got them at home depot. They work well.
Add 2 tbls of soap
Stay on track
Thanks for your video, just ordered the Q4 from Do My Own website.............$50+ savings to what I was going to buy !!!
u dont need to buy herbicide, mix a bit of salt and some dishsoap with vinegar. and spray the crabgrass. or just pull it out with the roots.
Thank you
Can say i do want to see toro come out with a brush and paddle brush attachment
Thanks for the videos. What type of grass you have?
Mix between Kentucky bluegrass, perennial rye and some fescue
I have it bad enough in my area that some area of grass, especially the shaded ones that already struggle on light budget, just get craters from the helicopter clumps going through the herb and settling as far down as they can, out of reach from lawnmowers, blowers and even rakes. Took me a while to figure out where those craters were coming from, since by the time the damage is done, the helicopters are mostly dissolved. Turns out the best course of action for now is to get the de-thatcher out right after the helicopter fiasco has ended. The sooner, the better, because the other thing that happens quickly is as the helicopters damage the normal lawn, crab grass settles into the craters.
Great info. I noticed house divided on the cornhole game. Who is the Steeler fan and who roots gor Green Bay?
I'm a green bay fan. The wife is a steelers fan
Thank you thank you thank you! I have been pulling my toro flex force head off every time to add the string. Who knew it was this easy! The only thing I would add is that when turning the knob on mine, I have to also push down while turning.
Just walk around the yard in a Nickleback shirt…It will kill all the Crab grass! 😂
Just came for the Nickleback joke. Thank you for making it a short search.
Facts!
Product is Q4
What is name of product and do you have a link to that pump sprayer? Thanks.
Product is Q4. It's just a cheap Chapin sprayer
@@alecslawnadventures9728 thanks
Hi, your video content is very good, what brands of irrigation controllers do you use to control watering? I would like to sponsor you a smart sprinkler controller, are you interested?
I do not have an irrigation controller currently
@@alecslawnadventures9728 Do you have an irrigation system? As long as you meet the usage requirements, you can use it.
No irrigation system. Just garden hoses and sprinklers is what I use
Just use straight out of the bottle vinegar ! It's non toxic and works every time !
Kills the grass too..
