Just wanted to say thank you BYD. One of the reasons I love your channel is you don't talk down to people or act like you are a lawn God. You instead just put out there what you are doing and how its working for you. I saw the Fertilome last year and tried it and now all the Neighbors are loving the lawn!!!!!! Thanks!
Beto Doc helps many people in his neighborhood and even treats his neighbors yards with several products, free of charge..sounds pretty arrogant to me 😑🤔
Hey excellent video, I am trying to get my lawn green and weed free in Lithonia. Your videos are the best I have seen to teach homeowners how to get a nice lawn.
You don't have to be a rocket scientist. You have what is important and that is practical knowledge. Thanks a bunch for sharing that knowledge. And you are correct on the pronunciation of chelated. In chemistry class at OSU for agriculture degree I learned it sounds like "key-lated." Thanks again!
Well, you sold Me. Gonna try it and also try this other concentrate on a different part of my lawn and see if there is a difference. I’ll let you know because it’s a big money saver if it’s good. It’s called Almighty Iron - 8 fl. oz. - Makes up to 50 gallons & Covers Up to 50,000 sq. ft. - Liquid Iron - 10% Iron Amino Acid Complex
One of my favorite intros BYD. I been using Southern Aug for 2 months and a local product before that, but I don't mind trying out this product especially if it has added nutrients in it. Awesome Video!👍🏽
For soil treatment in general it should be 4 oz per gallon per 500 sq.ft or 8 oz per 2gallons 1000 sq.ft. Water it in or risk burning the grass. If you're doing soil treatment then use a granular. For a foliar spray on my Fescue and Bermuda I use 1 to 2 oz per gallon with Urban Farms liquid lawn that also adds extra greening. On my Bermuda areas I come back 2 weeks later and reapply the same dose a 2nd time or as needed. Do some small test spots with lower doses until you find out what your particular grass or turf likes.
Good review. I’ve been curious about some of the liquid Iron products but haven’t gotten around to trying them. I tried to get you one of those riding John Deere mowers earlier today but they weren’t having it. 😂🤣👍🏽 I missed my pre-emergent window so I have to spot treat some of my weeds but I’m patiently waiting for next year to have a nice lawn. As bad as my lawn looks I’m still crushing my neighbors.
Thanks. I had bought a bottle of the Fertilome to use just a little to spray on the leaves of my hibiscus (which worked to stop yellowing leaves), and I was wondering about using the rest of the bottle to regularly spray on my bermuda lawn. I have a lawn care company, and the grass looks pretty good (It's expensive but I am a 64 yr old single woman), but don't you think it would be fine for me to use a battery operated tank sprayer? Blessings.
Fertilome is bad man!!! I used them in my hanging baskets and they are out there l. The neighbor wanna know where I get my flowers from yearly...I can’t tell them!!!!
Byd help I am in central Texas Bermuda lawn is healthy but with temps now in high 90 s it’s not dark green. Our greens keeper said hit it with nitrogen 21-0-0. What’s the steps to green it up and not burn it. Thx
Randy Spicer Randy I’d suggest a fert with some Potassium in it. A lesco 24-0-11. You’ll need that to help you roots since you have high heat stress there. This product also has iron in it. But trying to push growth with no rain 🌧 is just not heAlthy for the lawn. Do you have an irrigation system ?
I live in central Cali and have tall fescue at 4in. It’s very hot over 107 last 2 days. My lawn not as green as usual. So I used about 1/4 of the app rate of fertilome just know and watered it on good. Let’s see if it has an effect
BYD...I’m getting lots of compliments from my neighbors. My crush line is off the charts. I used 16 oz. of Fertilome diluted with 16 oz. of water in a 32 ounce hose-end sprayer per 500 square feet per the instructions. It darkened my front yard up to a beautiful dark green. The back yard darkened up a lot but not as much as the front yard. I see you used 100% Fertilome in your hose-end sprayer and didn’t dilute it. Do you think I can do that and be okay? You did. So I should be okay. What are your thoughts?
Pedro Cleveland the hose end sprayer will automatically dilute it for you. I can’t remember the rate I used be I did split applications if I’m not mistaken. I also used a high octane fertilizer to push my lawn. I’m not recommended you use a 46-0-0 because it could be deadly 😂. I was so impressed with that Fertilome though, it is awesome 👏🏽
Hendry Muljadi it is up to you. But normally after I see a fade in color , but between my fertilizer and this I only applied it twice during the season. Better yet I’d read the recommendation on the bottom so as to not over do it.
Hi, I have a question that hopefully you can answer, I am in Lithonia, GA and the high has been about low 90s everyday, how often should I water my lawn ( every day or every other day?) 5 minutes or 10 minutes?
mainj54 this product is chelated iron, it bond directly into the plant 🌱, it increase chlorophyll product at a raid rate, this increases the deeper green you’ll get with you lawn, shrubs, trees 🌲. Your lawn won’t get deeper green in most cases from iron in the soil. Plus not every body has the perfect soil conditions in Ga. a 3 season fertilizer with iron works well but products like these enhances appearances and Iron uptake. But this product is not necessary to get a green lawn.
Robert Ramos put it down while it’s actively growing. As long you can keep it hydrated you’ll be fine. Now don’t go do this to a dried out lawn that’s brown. But hydration is the key to any product you apply to your lawn. Water 💦 early mornings when needed or hopefully God will send you some Free water 🌧 😀
David Bressette the bottle will be empty or if you have one with the meter on the side you can see in the bottle. The bottle does not fill with water 💦 it siphons of the chemicals in the bottle as it passé through the bottle top.
Sorry to ask here but I couldn’t find you old Target 6 Plus vid. I wanted to ask how did the product work out for you? I’m interested in using it to combat several bad spots I’ve encountered
Good morning BYD…so I recently so your vid on ferti lome and purchased a week ago. I did not apply it correctly. I didn’t use a hose slayer rather a Insecticide sprayer. I spayed it on but did not water lawn until 24 hours later. Would it be ok to apply again a week later the correct way ?
Thanks BYD! Just ordered a bottle! The spray bottle your using. I'm assuming it's not the Ortho? I have a blue version of what your using which was the Bayer Fungus hose end sprayer. Can I use that vs using my backpack sprayer?
@@BYDonBermudaGrassCentraljust got my bottle. bad idea to apply when temperatures are in the 80's or should I apply late in the day when temperatures drop?
Recently bought a Toro striper attachment for my lawn mower, is it possible to stripe bermuda? Any tips. I live in texas and I've been mowing at a 2.5 height.
jtrevino12345 very possible it the effect doesn’t last as long as the Fescue type Grass. Check out this IG link when I stripe mine with the 22 inch Snapper, I did not have a lawn striper kit, just that little black flap that on the more instagram.com/p/Bkd9C9sh4vT/?igshid=1n7r894btkldv
Okay, will do. Do you remember what height you mowed at when you did those stripes? I'm wondering if I'll make deeper stripes if I go lower? I'm asking before I do it because I would hate to scalp and yellow it up because right now it's really green. Ironite helped big time!
I Might just go ahead and make that purchase, got some stubborn purple crab grass that is resistant to anything that comes out of Home Depot. Even pulled it out of ground and still comes back.
@@BYDonBermudaGrassCentral 90 and up here... I know Bermuda thrives with the heat , I'm not sure if I'm watering enough. I have clay soil some parts of my lawn has dry spots..

My tall fescue turns 2 shades darker over night spraying 2 ounces per gallon. I can mix 4 to 5 ounces per gallon and the fescue starts to turn black.
I contacted the company, and they said the mixing ratio is 8oz to 1gl of water.

How much Fertilome chelated iron do you use per gallon?

Yo BYd?
Should we pick leaves off lawn before cutting or scalp?
If you are bagging the lawn the you can do it at the same time. I’d recommend removing the leaves 🍁 before any kind of application.

Can you put this down before seeding or after seeding
Ok BYD- QUESTION- It’s not too hot now to be putting iron out? Also, maybe BYD Jr is with Yard Mama Jr bc mine ain’t nowhere to be found either.
Yard Mama keep or hydrated and you’ll be fine.
Seems like a good product for wide open spaces. Will this stain my sidewalks and driveway even if I wash it off right away?
Cliff Travis I’ll put it like this, I got some on sidewalk and it did not stain, but I can’t say it’s not possible 🤷🏾♂️
When can this be applied?
Can this be applied in June or July?
But I wouldn’t apply I. The middle of the day when temps get over 85. Plus I’d water in if temps are gonna be an issue.
