You should mention that if hooking a fertigation system up to an irrigation system, legally you are required to have a Reduced Pressure Zone Device (RZPD) for backflow prevention, installed and certified by a licenced plumber and registered with your local water authority and tested every year. Not sure if this also applies to a hose conencted to a tap (probably not, since Bunnings are allowed to sell hose-end venturi sprayers like weed n' feed that do the same thing as your system), and you probably don't need one for your irrgation system either since its connected to your bore, but for most people this is the biggest cost barrier to fertigation.
Can you do a video about the setup with the irrigation? I'm considering getting an EZ-Flo for my irrigation system, and would like to see how you put yours in the pit and plumbed it in.
What do you do if you do not finish what is in the bucket? Can you save it ? Do you have to add more water to the top again, that would make the mix weaker..?
Onya Benny, freaking love the fertigator! Can’t wait to use it this spring. Top tip with just chucking in wetting agent on lowest setting. Wicked idea 🤙🏻⛳️
Your videos are great....trying to sort my lawn out here in the UK, however just noticed that i have patches where the grass isnt growing up, but across into each other therefore lawn mower misses these, any tips for this?
Jonathan Seymour I don’t on the hose because it feeds back to my bore. I do have it setup on the irrigation though just in case I need to switch to town water.
I’ve just setup a Venturi injector which basically does the same thing but you can buy them for $20 off eBay or amazon. You might have a little less control over the dosage but it works great still.
Hi With all sort of products can you gauge the speed of travel of product in the feed tube so that you can estimate the application rate, as higher viscosity products will go on at a much lower rate. Any suggestions?
Hi I live in the UK and my lawn always look dead since watching your TH-cam now I have a green lawn some of the products you use I can not get in the UK but I have found similar products thanks
One thing I chuck on my lawn is worm juice (not sure whether it’s poo or pee, but the worm farm pumps it out like no one’s business!), do you reckon the EZ FLOW would be similar to the Hortex sprayer? I have to run the worm juice through a strainer because a lot of what goes into the farm is coffee grounds. Same deal for this set up, I’d imagine.
Ben I need you to do a Vid on your sprayer with the double nozzles. What do I need, where do I buy the bits and pieces from, how much pressure do I need to push the product, can I use a battery powered sprayer? Thanks Champ, keep up the content.
You can buy the solo double spray head from his website if you are in Australia (I recently did). He uses it on a Solo battery powered sprayer in his videos. It also fits Silvan backpack sprayers (I have one).
Thanks so much for watching everyone. Here is the link to my hoodies on my website: www.lawntips.net/merch Here is a link to the Ez-Flo Unit I used in this video: www.lawntips.net/lawnequipment/ezflo My new discount code for Hoselink is LAWN10
Do you have or can you post a better image of the t connector is it working on a venture effect or is the lines grabbing water to push out the liquid. Chur for NZ
Hi mate just got into your Volgs Could do one on winter care what and when we need to do for our lawns going into spring. For stuff like top dressing and fertilise. cheers
Not worried about having no backflow valve? And I guess you'd run water through the hose afterwards to wash it out hey? Was always curious about these. Never thought of using it outside of an irrigation system. Gotta look in to it!
Ben, I like those hoodies you're selling. Are they cotton ? or a synthetic ? Only asking as I'm really sensitive to synthetics. Do appreciate your work here. Thanks in advance.
@@BrettSucks I get that but my comment was just to bust his balls. I live in a metric country(canada) and we use it. I use it at work. I dont even think I could buy a metric tape measure. Even your supercars talk that way. Think Neil calls it old country when he uses mph.
andrew kennedy Yes I know ,I was busting his balls too , looks like he has no balls left 😆, The old imperial system is way to over complicated adding fractions together ,we went metric in the early seventies, we still use mph though.

Don’t upset the boy , he’ll delete you. 😂
Still need or you back flow into the aquifer and contaminat it.
Vacuum breaker is acceptable, and they not RPZAs
Would you run your special mix in it
Can you do a video about the setup with the irrigation? I'm considering getting an EZ-Flo for my irrigation system, and would like to see how you put yours in the pit and plumbed it in.
Love Wednesday and Saturdays and would love to see a more in depth vid on the ezyflow kepp up the good work love it 👌👌👌
Does it effect the pressure much?
Like if I had this on my sprinkler rather than hose would that work?

A rake.
You’ve probly got a mix with creeping red fescue in it .
What type of fertilizer do you put in your regular unit hooked to your sprinkler system?
Does it dilute down as you water. IE is it 'strong' to begin with? If so how would you manage the strengths changing.
Any news on the lawn app and Google Playstore?
I was literally researching these systems yesterday morning! You beauty Ben, keep it up mate 🤙🏻
Doesn't look like you have backflow prevention. Do you need that for fertigation?
Jonathan Seymour I don’t on the hose because it feeds back to my bore. I do have it setup on the irrigation though just in case I need to switch to town water.
@@LawnTips you are fine and legal to feed back into the bore? So what if down the road is not aware? You just contaminated the aquifer....

Just wondering, your hose reel out the front is that also linked to the bore or just the back yard one?

Why would you pay good money for cheap clothing (he has to make a profit ya know) advertising someone’s you tube channel.
Brett sucks. To support someone they like
twitch moments
Ah ,I see, I didn’t think of that.
It’s a good job I don’t like people ,I couldn’t afford it.
Great vid bro
My wife said:lets save some money for a new bed...i said Ben just upload a new video its like impossible🤣🤣🤣
Ytbs cant wait 😁
When is the best time to cut the grass when the moon is waxing or when the moon is waning
When the sun is out is best .
2:30 3/4to a 1/2inch? What kind of demonic measurement are those?

We used to use those measurements in the sixties.

Good video
Hose link looks mad but so $$$ got any discount codes 🤣🤣

@@BrettSucks I mean, hell, the guy's lawn looks better than mine. I'll take whatever tips I can get.
Have you seen that putting thing he’s got in his front , the more things he does to it the worse it looks.
Love you Brett
