Your wife is a good sport! All props to her on the opening!
‘Bout spit out my Latte. 🍻☠️
That’s the best intro of your life. Mark it. You won’t repeat it.
I walk by this yard every day with my dog. The lawn looks even better in person. I get to see the projects and progress before they drop on the channel here.
The dog knows she is not allowed to walk on his yard, though! (We might get a free pass if we are chasing squirrels away?)
The yard is looking great man
Sweet!! Thanks for the Rye/BG differences @1:31 . And can't believe the Bluegrass is still germinating after a month.
I was thinking to myself today that it would be nice to have a video drop from "The Lawn Whisperer" today. Really enjoyed the update and yard is looking great!
Nailed it!
coming in nicely, gonna look great next year!
Grass is looking good! I just back lapped my reel mower tonight too. 👍🏻
Great job with the blowies! 👏
Grass looks great man!
That little blower can be used to blow off the dust that might get on your real blower.
Gotta keep a little plot of grass in a pot to fix those squirrel holes. I have the same problem
Looking great
It's looking so good! I got a really late start on mine. Just started manual reel mowing. It feels nice having a new lawn. Great vid!
Day 6 old established Burmuda
Plugged 6days ago over seeded w Kansas blend fescue , added scotts yard starter ..... Prior 6 weeks took Burmuda down to 3/4" from 3 1/2"
Starting to see new turf
You can always get a lawn sweeper for your grass and leaves . And compost the grass and leaves. Then add to the compost to enhance it before spreading back on your yard and ovoid having to use
Commercial fertilizer.
Coming along nicely
I went with a monostand of Ryegrass in my front yard. Looking crisp at 3/4 inch but you're making me jealous of having some blue in there as well! Seems to be progressing quite nicely.
Looks GREAT Bro 😎
Looking good! I need to get me one of those reel mowers.. it would be perfect in my front yard. Great video! Looking forward to spring time to see what it looks like.
Oh and btw thanks for that rotary edging tool video from earlier! I got one for myself and I absolutely love it! You can get such precision edging with that thing. I like it more than I the electric ones that I've tried!
Love it! Great video as always! Keep it up!
Looking good!!!!
Lawn is looking nice buddy!
Thank you!
Waller around all day err day
All day wallerin!
That leaf blower sounds like a plane taking off.
Yooooo you inspired me to grab a manual push mower...originally as I wanted to do first cut on new seeded lawn. Best thing I’ve done and don’t think I’ll be going back to rotary mower. I’m now cutting with it every 3 days. I’d do more, but don’t want the neighbours thinking I’m weird (lol) ......Next stop... cylinder!!!
My neighbors already think I'm weird. So I mow 2 days on 1 day off 😎
👏👏👏👏 Beautiful new grass!!! Fantastic job🙂 Recently I bought a reel mower and tried on my overseeded lawn. Tires crushed bunch of new grass and they stayed laying flat :-/ Maybe I left grass grow too tall for reel mowing. I'm learning a lot by making mistakes and trying things. Thank you for all the great videos! Learning a lot!
I overseeded with Blue Heat. Coming along can’t wait to see how it holds up next season. Both your reno areas are looking good!
Best intro ever 😁👍
Over four summers I got rid of over 300 squirrels. It’s much better now but I still see them every day on my lawns.
How in the world did you get rid of the squirrels!?
@@lisaconyers4666 it was mostly a live trap or have a heart trap. I would use some almonds or cashews, peanuts to lure them in. I would then relocate them where I knew they could never get back.
Thanks so very much for answering me. I’ll try that & keep you posted:)
Man did that come in thick !! Money bro.
Answering questions on your channel videos helps your engagement. Thus increasing your reach.
I know. It was a joke
Buhahaha good informative videos.. keep up the good work.. love the opening, and ending 👍
Nice work!! My MVS sissy grass is thicker than a bowl of oatmeal.
Lawn looks great.. you have Squirrel problems.. I have some rabbit problems.. lol
First Aussie 😁. The lawn is coming along nicely. 😎👍👍
I just got done overseeding my backyard. I never see squirrels in my backyard but ever since the grass germinated and started growing, it's like squirrels has a competition of who can dig the most holes. Every morning I get up to water the grass, they are everywhere just digging holes. Between having to deal with squirrels and leaves, I'm never overseeding in the fall again.
Maybe just do it a little earlier?
@@TheLawnWhisperer we have some crazy weather in my area. It can be 80 degrees, then two days later we'll skip fall and go straight to winter. Last year we went from winter, skipped spring, right to the summer heat. We went from having a high of 59 degrees last week, to the high of 85 this week
I think I let my bluegrass overgrow on me every time so when I cut it down to two and a half inches it looks a little yellowish
Subscribed, nice content brother 👍👍
Thank you!
I don’t think I can let my girl watch the outtro, she might ask you for your OnlyFans lol 😂
Looking nice for 31 days!
Lol 😆 at the intro
So you planted it around September 6th? Wow, I just planted my cool-season here in OK. Hope it turns out looking like this.
Have you had to sharpen your reel mower yet?
If so, how was the process?
I'm warning you, reel mowing can be veryyyy catchy. Like you, started push reel mowing my backyard after a seeding project in the spring, ended up using it throughout the summer and nowwww come fall I'm using the Greensmaster in the back too. I'm getting all these crazy ideas like sand leveling now...be very very careful!
Any ideas on a good grass to use in west Texas. I want the nice yard but we have some extreme heat out here.
GCI Blue Heat is looking great! And I’m sort of an expert at 2.5 inches, so I know what I’m talking about.
With new grass when doing your first cut, what do you do with the grass against walls or corners where the mower can’t cut? Do you use a weed wacker?
Dang man, those squirrels are begging for a pellet gun... 🔫
Pee on the squirrel! Jkjk they actually love yo lawn man. They wants to call it their home 🤣😋
So adjusting the height at the wheels does what? Also, adjusting height at the roller does what?
Adjusts the height of cut..
Bigger units always blow better.
Sprinkle a little red pepper on your lawn to deter those pesky squirrels. I do and it does work to some degree.
I tried. I sprinkled tons of it all over and it didnt help haha
John Perry had a video to get rid of Rabbits, it involved some hot sauce. Maybe try that it did work for me
Epic intro!!!! Lmao
How many days a week do you workout
Very good cutting video. I just did a new reno of GCI tall fescue on my home and I'm on week 6. When is it safe to start edging my new lawn with a straight edger? Thx
Anytime!!!
@@TheLawnWhisperer thanks for the quick response.
That leaf blower was intimidating. 🤐
😂
How long did it take for the Blue Heat to Germinate?
It popped on day 7
It popped on day 7

@@TheLawnWhisperer That's what she said.
Why would you recommend if you top soil is too soft and you sink while walking through it?
Try to compact it with a roller or something
Yeah, I put down 8 cubic yards of top dressing mix and after watering it for weeks, it is really soft. I should have rolled it in hindsight, but if that’s the biggest mistake I made, I’ll take it!
what’s the ratio of kbg to prg
another great video! but, is that 3/4" fully stretched out?
Great going so far but what about weeds? Did you get weeds with the GCI grass??
Just a few. Not enough to be concerned as most will die in winter
Just received the EarthWise 7 blade!!! Super pumped. First Reel mower!
QUESTION: I read on their website that the 7 blade is used for bent grass types, and for KBG to use the 4 or 5 blade. In your opinion, does it work just as good? I mean the mow blades the better right?
It works great!!!
Yooooooo slap that 💯
Hey, what’s your advice on weeds?? Any product you can recommend
That's a very generic question my friend!
How often do you sharpen your blades and what do you use?
Every couple weeks and use an angle grinder. Havent sharpened these reel blades yet
What's your plan for sharpening those blades?
They make a cheap back lapping kit I believe it's like 10 bucks
Get some Westie’s like me and Knorr 🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶 as Clark Griswold would say “GONE”
I feel your squirrel pain :(
Looks awesome! Do you ever spray follow up applications of Tenacity after seeding? Or just right before seeding.
About 4 weeks after seeding or after the two mows
@@TheLawnWhisperer Thanks! I’m at about 4 weeks after seeding TTTF. I didn’t know if there are any concerns spraying Tenacity close to frost/freeze.
Dude I'm having the same problem with them tree rats! Lol
Ldub: You think October planting is too late?
Getting pretty close to too late
@@TheLawnWhisperer well I planted yesterday & October 6th. We shall see. It’s Oklahoma. We’re on a roller coaster of temps right now.
Hey Justin, hope you’re well. Really enjoying the channel. Question for you. Reseeded my yard about two weeks ago and now some of the new grass blades are turning white. Thoughts? Trying to figure out if it’s from the Scotts starter with weed control or over watering.
It's from the mesotrione in the Scott's starter. It should grow out of it 👍
Is that a 1980s Casio watch 😂
Mineo!
Nice intro lol
Man I have a ton of questions. I recently moved to South Dakota. (Military). The last homeowner was not keen on lawn maintenance. And finally i have a lawn to take interest in in a long time, bc it's a mutt. It's crazy bumpy. It's a blend of all sorts of grass. I aerated and overseeded with tall fescue, and I fertilized. I'm trying to get it to come out of winter balls blazing. But it's struggling. I'm also on a budget. Would it be more beneficial to just scalp it and start over? Or nurse it until shes beautiful again?
You can do either. Nursing it back to glory will take longer but definitely doable. A little too late (at least here where I'm at) to do any scalp and reseed and the grass have time to establish
Im not sure that it is possible to mow every other day and sometimes everyday.......but it is probably possible to mow everyday but sometimes every other day .......
"Tick" that's actually what she says. Lol.
By the way, don't fall in love with that blue heat much, remember you'll be out from there soon.
I know 😬
Cat trap, relocate squirrels
slappy slap slap
No better confidence builder than your wife saying its so thick... how did you fool her...lol jk keep up the great work!
Might not want to finger your lawn... someone will get jealous...lol
When are you going to talk about new land again?
Very soon! I'll start clearing the land soon and may talk about some of the layout I am hoping for
you dirty dirty man..haha
Thought maybe you were exaggerating before, but if your wife says it’s thick, it must be! 🧐
You have never heard your wife speak those words before. You had to teach them to her didn't you.
1000% true haha
Get yourself a reel mower and do away with those ugly wheel marks! I know you know guys.
😬
3/4" huh? 🤔🤔🤔
😳
congrats on being thiccccc. 😆 Also amazon won't shio that reel to my address in Ca. 😥
It might give you cancer if you live in California.
@@BrettSucks lol yup
Boooooo
I mean c'mon.. that tiny ass leaf blower is sad. I mean I know you don't want to say crap about whosoever sent you that blower but I mean c'mon man... I breathe heavier than that 🤣
I didnt love it. It's nothing compared to the toro. But would be ok for the applications I mentioned. Blowing out a garage or blowing off a deck or porch
@@TheLawnWhisperer point taken. I'm loving my newly acquired Ego blower though. That thing really blows! Give that a try as your next buy whenever it is :) meanwhile I shall binge away at your wholesome videos! Much love🙏
Notice how your wife cant look at the camera? She probably couldnt say that w a straight face. #downwiththethickness
True haha
THICC
Advertised: low and high settings.
Reality: quite and loud settings.
leaves shouldn't be a problem right? or else buying a reel mower is just a waste of time. Leaves should be able to be cut too with this mower. I think: this thing doesn't like leaves is just exaggerating. It should be going all over that man...
I hate these sissy reel mowers! You can gas mow it now 😎
