It's rare, but it does happen! 🤣

Hey, nematodes are used in the US yes 🙂

You will need to allow the excess surface water to clear before aeration as you do not want to aerate waterlogged soil, so wait until the surface has dried.

Spring aeration is about allowing air back into the soil so that it can reach the roots and improves drainage, so there is no reason to apply a top dressing now.

The question is why would you want moss instead of grass! Plus a 2,500 square foot lawn produces enough oxygen for a family of four!

@@TrugreenUk Ok, how much does moss produce? Looks like low maintenance grass to me 😅 it even grows by itself easily for what you say in the video

​Well, it's not grass. It's not good for the lawn overall as it suffocates your grass and causes lawn diseases as mentioned in the video.

@@aikakai3220 these people have no idea what they're talking about Maas is one of the least competitive organisms on the planet. It doesn't suffocate the lawn. It does consume moisture but only to a certain point and after that it actually filters the water before it hits the soil. It is an excellent air purifier and actually removes way more carbon than grass well. It is extremely low maintenance and it actually helps inhibit a lot of undesirable insects like mosquitoes.

Go to Japan and you'll see whole gardens covered in moss. Absolutely stunning. Doesn't require mowing every week and feels soft and spongy under foot. Better than grass In many ways

Just saw them today 04/09/2023 so yes!

Hi Shazia, No Rich Lawns is still alive over on his channel! He's just had a bit of a break, the content will be changing over the next few months, which we're excited for!

Hi Graeme, thanks for the kind words and great feedback! We actually changed this due to multiple people asking for subtitles haha. We'll look at an alternative for TH-cam.

@@TrugreenUk Oh No. Poor you ! You can't please everyone all the time ! I was under the impression that TH-cam had the CC icon (Closed Captions) that enabled video to be run with (auto generated ?) captions ??? I'm no expert but by clicking the CC icon on some (but not all videos) captions are generated. Anyway it's a great video. Have an enjoyable Bank Holiday.

@@GC987 Yes you can do that. We'll look into it, thanks Graeme.

Hi David, this video should answer your question - th-cam.com/video/ElHlLI3ONNk/w-d-xo.html If not, comment again and we'll provide a different answer for you.

Hello Francis, during the winter there is 6% iron in the fertiliser, which is applied at 30g per m2. In the spring a 20% liquid iron application is applied with 200g of product in 9 litres of water covering an area of 100m2.

Thanks 👍

True Green sucks!

Hello, in the UK Crane Flies are also known as Daddy Long Legs, see here - www.rspb.org.uk/birds-and-wildlife/wildlife-guides/other-garden-wildlife/insects-and-other-invertebrates/flies/cranefly/

@@TrugreenUk I live in England, and a Daddy Long Legs Spider (Pholcus Phalangioides) is of coarse a spider! I am aware that crane flies and harvestmen are called daddy long legs by mistake because they have long legs but they are not Daddy Long Legs!

@@yorkshirepauper they are not a spider they’re in fact an insect

@@yorkshirepauper All three are known as daddy long legs whether you like it or not, you can't just portray your own definition as THEE definition, that is what narcissists do.

@@krashd They may be "known as" but that doesn't mean they are! Not my own definition, this is the taxonomy from books!

Hello Michael, they may be harmless while airborne, but once they lay their eggs in the ground and they hatch, the larvae (leatherjackets) will feed on the the grass roots which will result in extensive damage to the lawn.

Yes they are indeed harmless.... ... Atleast not Phisically

Hello Francis, the early autumn application of NPK is 12-5-20 and the late autumn/winter application is 6-5-10.

Hello Jenni, we use a broad-spectrum fungicide with both contact and systemic properties, with the best results achieved when applied as a preventative treatment.

Hello Shazia, the algae formed from debris in the lawn due to poor drainage. It's rare to see this amount of algae produced, there are usually only small patches on the lawn, but this literally covered the whole area.

Hello bogboy, we do offer both types of aeration, but generally use a solid tine, as when completed at close centres this is the most efficient way of increasing the air moisture balance in the soil, and encouraging strong and healthy grass growth. We would hollow tine as part of a programme of incorporating a top dressing to improve drainage and rooting capacity, but this is generally as part of a larger renovation.

Thanks so much! 🌱🌱
