I switched from my Honda petrol rotary to a push reel bosch mower and I can't believe how much healthier the lawn grows. It now needs mowing every 2/3 days as grows so quick and thick now. Now I am a lawn lover
Tip with throwing rocks in council I worked for mowing we used chains on the shoot or even used rubber shield that points the throw to the ground... Ps I missed my mow we got rain today and all week
@Lawn Tips what you need is a good husqvarna 525 brush cutter with a Rapid reload head those rotary heads are shit always bend or break i professionally lawn care with a brush cutter and nothing beats it plus take the pain out of your back and elbows
I feel you there Ben. I have buffalo at home now. Next growing season it’s being ripped up. As an ex greenkeeper myself, just not a fan and want something with a finer leaf and to mow low and get nice and tight.
Yeh that buffalo i don't like it all up the top of my yard. The rest is couch but I have paspalum not, showing up. I'm ready to burn the hole thing lol.
It’s starting to look greener though bud. I’m looking forward to it warming up enough for you to start the reno’s. Interested to see what you’re going to do cool season wise. Also I’ll paying attention to what kind of drainage solutions you go with and where you apply them. 🤜🤛 Maybe get some new grates for your drain outside the shed, I’m worried about your little dogs legs, it was sweet seeing him jump the gap though. 🙂
Amazon Japan sell replacement blades. Not sure if they ship international but worth a shot if you need a set. Do you edge with yours as well? I do, but not sure if I should... don't want to blunt the blades!
Hey mate, love the videos. I have a question for you… I have Kik front yard and Couch back yard but only 1 Scott Bonnar. Will I be on using the same mower on both of them without turning my couch into Kik?
Props for the honesty regarding that landscaper tool. You could have edited it out...but instead, you revealed the truth. In my opinion, it's a flawed design in that if you hit a rock or a wall it bends and siezes. Whereas with a string trimmer, the line would break but you can then just tap and feed more line and continue.
If I win lotto I'm doing this, mowing everyday on a big ass property won't be filming but just enjoying it🤣👍 dog seems to love all the area to run around
Champ, love the videos and have watched them all I think. Just noticed over the last few that the background is going way out of focus when you are talking direct to camera. It is a bit distracting. I guess it is the low aperture value on the lens making the depth of field really shallow. You are pin sharp but the rest is blurred heaps. Might just be my eyes but thought I would mention it. Can wait to see the green earthworks kickoff. Cheers!
Have you thought about trying a robot lawnmower in your backyard? I would be really interested how they compete against a traditional mow. Also they should work in wet areas as well. Would be great content. Husqvarna sponsorship?
I've got a Ryobi line trimmer but want to upgrade to the Landscape Blade. Anyone know if it's compatible or am I going to have to get a new platform for a Landscape Blade?
Mate, the storms the last 2 nights killed me. 3 weeks straight perfect weather didn't even check the forecast before I seeded I really don't know why I didn't check. But that night the freak storms come out of nowhere.
I've been searching for the last hour for one of those soaker hoses you used in a previous video, Where did you get yours from mate? i'm quite interested
sounds like you need one of them speed feeder heads on your trimmer. I got the stihl and put it on there and it goes like a dream. putting new line in it takes 2 minutes and if I need more line, just give it a tap. no need to worry about rocks or fence line
@@LawnTips that's fantastic mate! Every guys dream to be able to provide that life for the woman he loves, and in turn I bet she takes care of most of the things allowing you more time to do the things to continue providing... Team work makes the dream work... Watched you from the very start and utterly chuffed for you!! Congratulations Ben you are succeeding 👍
If I had 12 acres here in Cali I'd have nothing but 12acres of flat land with noting but TTTF lol, no trees/ no bushes/ no flowers, JUST TTTF tall thick deep green tttf😬😬😬😁😉
Can't you use the dam to irrigate the property rather than spending a fortune on a bore? I realise that the bore is far more reliable, especially during a dry spell, but that looks like a large, well fed dam.
Your dog jumping the drain out front of the shed was the best 😂😂
the dog jumping over the drain/gutter at roughly 11:20 🥰
the pup trying to jump the grate at 11:30 was adorable hahaha
11:28 his little HOP! I cant get enough! lol
One thing i love about watching ur vids is how passionate and happy u are doing what u do keep it up man!!
11:20... OMG doggo trying to cross the grate of doom! So cute.
Can’t wait to watch this awesome vid. Any vid of your is amazing. I literally just finished my yard work and came inside to watch your vid. Perfect 👍
Have watched. Can confirm. It’s awesome.
@@mikewaldie7707 I will be watching it after dinner, can't wait haha
We want to see more doggo!!! 😍😍😍
I think the dog needs a little sweater. It would be dope
those little sausage jumps over the garage drain. so cute
4:33 you can tell spring is here
Can’t wait for the Zoysia project to start , so hard to find advice on it
Zeon zoysia please 👌
We have Empire Zoysia.
So thick and dense now. And so Green.. Been down for 3 years now. We Love it
Love it when my phone gets notifications for your Lawn Tips videos!!
Now you just need a 4 stroke whipper snipper !
I switched from my Honda petrol rotary to a push reel bosch mower and I can't believe how much healthier the lawn grows. It now needs mowing every 2/3 days as grows so quick and thick now. Now I am a lawn lover
Nice and tight Kikuyu baby! Wooooooooooo! Let's go renno, lets go!
I hope the dachshund pup is in every video now lol he's adorable!
Great to see your success.

Hang in there Ben, your doing great dude! Even getting a bit of rain here in w.a but summer is coming! Yay warmseason growgrow
I know its abit random, but you could put up like a fund me page for the bore? I'd be happy to shout a case of beer haha
I’m not sure that’s allowed because it’s not a charity or person in “need”
I’d feel bad anyway mate haha. Would be like I’m a bit of a scab 😂
@@LawnTips how about a patreon
loving all these vids, ive got Kikuyu and a dog so looking forward to seeing the reno soon .
We only got 3.5mm of rain at Mona Vale last night.
Hopefully there will be a video on the shed renovation?
I have rock, spring, golf club, tree roots and golf ball on my lawn tips bingo this week, so close

Which of your lawn mowers is your favourite
The zero turn or the lawn tractor
You probably got that little dog to minimise compaction? Hehe
I would love to see you plant some palm trees on your beatiful property! There are some that would grow well in your climate. Love your vids!
So good
NICE VID!
When you say you’re going to put something out the back. What will be the process of removing all the old grass to replace it? Thank you
Not sure if anyone had already mentioned it. Are you gonna put some big 22000L water tanks off the back shed roof? All this rain you’re gonna have. 👍🏻
I’m glad I got my 5 acres mowed on Sunday , this drop of rain it’s going to look sweet by this weekend when it needs mowing again 🤦♂️
Haha a never ending cycle isn’t it
Time for a well-drilling sponsor lol
Great vid mate! I am loving the new digs and cant wait to see what you do with the place. Cool dog too, he really stole the show! Whats his name?
How is it winter already? Where is he in the world for him to need a coat?
Spring here, just coming out of winter
12 acres for a dog to run around on and you bought a sausage dog lol.
😂

If I had a wicked couple of ride ons and the time I would, have an esky on the side and beer on and at the same time

Do zoysia mantrella (shadetuff) out the back its slow growing and only needs a couple of hours sun

Any chance you could use the dams as a pumped storage or would the earthworks required cost more than a bore?
a lefty club at 4:50?!
Wrightson seeds have a desert blend with fescue
If I win lotto I'm doing this, mowing everyday on a big ass property won't be filming but just enjoying it🤣👍 dog seems to love all the area to run around
Bro got to get yourself a rake attachment for the John Deer! That way you don’t have to rake it manually my friend!

Last Aussie 😁
Ben What are your thoughts on the zoysia up against the Rye and tiff tuff From what I've seen it looks awesome at so many different lengths
Maybe I missed the reason why the pond can't be used to irrigate. Do tell though
First Queenslander 😁 yeah boi 😎💪
Aye Ben, can you give us a look at your playlist next vid?
What weather app are you using?
Weatherzone 👍🏽
Landscaping blade = fail. Stuff that. Cord will smash shit allll day an 2min to wind 5mtrs on…an cheap. Awesome vids lately man. 💯💯.
Have no idea where you source your tunes.. but seriously good variety :D
I get them all from epidemic sound.
Thanks mate! I spend a bit of time sifting through and picking them
Hey mate just wondering what that app was called that you used to get the square metres of your Kik patch? Cheers
Lawn Journal 😉 it’s fantastic. I use it all the time
Sometimes it's like Where's Wally in your vid with your dog!

I’m tipping someone as fanatical about mowing his lawn as Ben is, wouldn’t be that keen on using a robot mower. Kind of takes the fun out of it.

Your dog must make an appearance is every future video ever
What you did with the landscape blade is the disadvantage of it
I've noticed your not much of an edging man, Mr mower :D You're gonna be one busy man with all these tasks.
Umm landscaping blade
Yeah I saw that, but what about a whipper sniper for when that one doesn’t work like what happened to it in his video 😂
Yes well I think he just needs to learn to be a little more gentle haha
5:39 that’s what she said.
I've been searching for the last hour for one of those soaker hoses you used in a previous video, Where did you get yours from mate? i'm quite interested
I got mine from equipment solutions here in Australia. Turf mate also sells them. They are called sumi soakers
sounds like you need one of them speed feeder heads on your trimmer. I got the stihl and put it on there and it goes like a dream. putting new line in it takes 2 minutes and if I need more line, just give it a tap. no need to worry about rocks or fence line
Just wondering if your Mrs works? If so what does she do?
She is a stay at home Mum which I love. She hasn’t worked for about 5 years

@@callumhollingworth2013 thanks mate!!
Hope all of you in orange 🍊 are okay after the wild weather today Ben. 🤞

Yes maybe a gd idea to lock up all them toys and certainly all them chemicals
$420 for that landscaping blade. Changing cord doesn’t bother me anymore lol.
I am from india…
My soil type is black soil,
So,
Could you suggest me for suitable and best lawn grass seeds for my soil
I want to see a video of you edging the entire yard. I bet that'd take a little while :)
Yeah boy first up
Do you need an employee? My dream job!
wait are those machines all your
12:42 Might have done it lol
That’s exactly what did it haha
A lor of work, i Think in tow jaers everything will be finished
Can't you use the dam to irrigate the property rather than spending a fortune on a bore? I realise that the bore is far more reliable, especially during a dry spell, but that looks like a large, well fed dam.
Unfortunately there isn’t quite enough water in there. I am thinking about extending it though but need to wait for it to dry and bit for that!
You deff should lay zoysia you’ve neglected this grass type on this channel
You need an apprentice mate. Someone who is passionate about grass and video production haha.
I reckon you have a small dog so it doesn't poo everywhere lol
Ooft Buffalo!
1st, FINALLY!
I reckon Ben’s gonna have to check the records on this one 🤣 I thought I was first 🧐
Mate!!!! Wash your equipment lol
Haha I agree. In the back of my mind always. Just trying to keep up with it all haha
First
Yeah you were
I think Ben is going to have to check the records 🤣 I’m pretty sure I was first 😂
