No probs love doing it
@@DanielHibbertLawnExpert Nice work Dan!
Damn you Dan, I’ve got my head around double stripes and you’re now hitting me with triples!
Looks fantastic! 🎉
Wow, well done Dan, what a magnificent lawn. I’ve spent Easter Saturday scarifying, spreading Dan’s rye grass at 50 gms per sq. m and covering it with fertiliser to keep the birds off. Watered in and next week looks rainy all week. It won’t look anything like yours but I can only hope!
Those triple stripes are amazing Dan, looks superb 👌
Looks stunning Dan 👌
Looks amazing 👏
Looking very very sharp already
Amazing work Dan. Looks Fab..well done.
It’s no wonder it was Britain’s best lawn, beautiful!!
Think its like triggers broom this lawn i wonder how many blades of grass still exist from 2016?
Dan another great video, I'm going to renovate mine in the next 3 weeks . Your lawn looks great in such a short time
Great job as always.
Beautiful lawn
Flippin awesome Danny!! It’s all in the prep 👏👏 THANKS for making it easy for us all to follow 👍
Like you say “Do what I do and get the same results I do” 🥳
Very nice!
Daniel how you keep these properties is what i strive for every year. Its the standard iam trying to reach ,great job!
You've done well considering the weather, wetter in South Lakes I'm afraid.
I''ve manage high cuts in Jan, Feb and twice in March on what is basically field grass, but weed free.
Tomorrow, Easter Sunday, the forecast is good so hopefully a high scarify and a good covering of compost to feed. Really looking forward to it.
Here's to the next one Daniel.
That's the dream
That’s like scoring a hat-trick, take a bow!
Wow, looks amazing Dan, wish you covered Wilmslow area!!! In need of some serious experienced help with ours.
Insane bud. Them stripes are crisp
Good arnt they
Legend.
Mate them Stripe's are unreal! 👌👌
Keep going on the mowing , can't wait for some decent weather 😆😆👍
Yeah even i am surprised, when i film 2 weeks prior and say its going to look great in 2 weeks i put myself in the firing line
Absolutely smashed this on, Dan - great work indeed 😄
I have been using your approach with using the rotary mower first, then the reel mower - at least when my lawn gets just a bit overgrown. Currently mowing at 16mm here in Denmark
Whats the weather like?
It's just getting two-digits degress these days, otherwise more like 6 - 8 degress @@DanielHibbertLawnExpert
I hope i will get just close to what you have established here. Unfortunately, my lawn is not as level given i am in the mountains 😂
It’s rained so much down south I’ve only managed to cut one cut in so far this year. I’m slacking
Fabulous. Just looking at replacing my Hayter, which model do you have please? I have 3 different areas of lawn with each ranging from 150m2 -300m2. So wondering whether to get the 16inch or 19inch version and if the electric start and or BBC is worth the extra £?
Looks fantastic mate, really love that Johnson's j premier pitch seed, and I think 25mm mow height for it is the best, I always mow mine at that height of 25mm. Great the season has well and truly kicked in now, so we are starting to get lots of uploads from you 🥳👍
I think he used Bar Extreme on this lawn Mark, but yeah J.P Pitch is an awesome seed 🎉. Stripes from them are insane as well.
@@mushy_GLX I asked Dan before mate and he told me it is still Johnson's premier pitch, there are only two gardens he uses Johnson's prem pitch on still, this one here, and that other one that the sites selling the Johnson's premier pitch seed use Dan's picture to advertise it.
@@markslade9722 Hi Mark, yeah I have asked the same question lol and know the other site green care using that pic and as I remember correctly he said 2nd one was on the other side of this lawn. Dan himself needs to chip in on this lol. You might be right mate ✌️
@@mushy_GLX 🤣🤣yeah, I asked him before and so am pretty sure 100% this lawn here is his other one that has Johnson's premier pitch seed. He will be overseeding it soon, so you will get to see Dan putting Johnson's prem pitch seed down, he buys a big bag and then uses it for these two customers lawn, this one which is Britain's former best lawn winner and the other one we mentioned👍
@@markslade9722 You are right Mark, I just watched his reno video on this lawn and it is Johnsons prem pitch indeed👻 I do remember asking him this question on one of his videos I think one with liquid stripes and he said he only used it on two lawns, one on that and another britains best lawn but I though it was the other side rather then main lawn. 😇😇
Any ideas how to rid my lawn of Baby's Tears (Soleirolia)? I've tried Resolve weedkiller a couple of times with no success. Thanks for any advice.
Love your videos. Inspire me to do the same at home although nowhere near the same level, I’ve learned a lot!
Can you seed close to using your ferts? Or should you leave a gap?
I like to leave a gap so the seed can come through.
@@DanielHibbertLawnExpertcheers Dan
Epic results Dan 😍
Fantastic, Inspirational. Thanks Daniel. Do you ship to France? I would like to try a few of your products.
Not at min but ill be on france.tv in may they want to do a piece on me for one of there shows so maybe demand will make me do it so wait till after that
Looking awesome! Do you ever have issues with the turf laying over and growing sideways? Is the something to stand the turf up a bit?
Thats prob coz your grass is to long
Hi Dan, do you always go the same direction when you stripe, or do you change the nap every other cut etc.
do you ever change the orientation of stripe dependant on the clients garden or tend to stick with the best way that goes with the property?
Yeah i change but this predominately is that way as it longer than wider
Looks mint Dan looks like you know what you are doing 😂👌
Im making it up as i go along lolol
@@DanielHibbertLawnExpert 😂 I was Assistant Head GreenKeeper at The Belfry Golf Centre and I was there for all the four Ryder Cups held there.
I used to cut greens 5 , 9, 18 , putting green and practice green for the Ryder Cups.We used to cut them twice a day.
Good now to see all the trees we planted in the 80’s now all matured.2ft Scott’s Pines we planted now 20ft high and 5ft poplars we planted are now 35ft plus oh those were the days 👍
@@AstonVilla1969 spot on did you meet any famous players?
@@AstonVilla1969 Hello, thanks for that information. I run my own garden and landscape company, and I've always wanted to go and work at the golf course, for a while, just so I can pick up some more tips. I have understood a lot in the past 5 years, aeration, tines, soft sand, mowing, cutting with allett. But I'm still interested in wanting to know, if greens overseed, and if so, what do they use, is it like Daniel dwarf rye grass? and I also wanted to know if greens put a layer of topsoil now and then for renovations. Also do greens use products at all? I've been mostly just sticking to pure logic basics, with my clients, keep it fairly thick in winter, chop it back before spring without it going yellow, and then take it down from there every two weeks or so. Spot treat some weeds, but just maintain a nice healthy grass stem and leaf coverage, thicker is greener. Any tips would be greatly appreciated, thanks. Most of the lawns I've started with were old agricultural plots, so it's taken a while to get a nice clean coverage, and sometimes I have prairie grass, not real grass, so if it's left, it just looks like a field, which I think most clients would prefer a garden not a field. But I love it. It's so satisfying. I'm also moving towards bigger machines, as the size of my properties start to increase. I have a lot of 1500m2 - 2500m2, and with a quality push mover weibang it takes me 3 hours. I'm looking to get a bigger model, maybe even a ride on. But I still get great results, the weibangs are amazing, my clients are thrilled with the cut. I'd post a picture of my one lawn, going for stripes like Daniel, it came out really good.
@@DanielHibbertLawnExpert Hi Dan , yes I did.
I met a lot of TV Celebrities over the years Forsyth, Tarbuck , lots of footballers.
During Tournaments as I was a golf nut as well as a Greenkeeper at The Belfry I met and got autographs from a lot of players in the late 80’s and 90’s Ballesteros,Faldo you know who played in Ryder Cups around that time.The Americans were a lot politer than the Europeans I can tell you.
When I would be cutting the putting green during the Ryder Cups at 06:00 in the morning the Yanks would come out and say morning and speak to you.Not the Europeans they were miserable tossers.Colin Montgomery is a very rude obnoxious individual I can tell you!.
I’ve got memorabilia in the loft.
I have the 18th Flag from the 1985 European Ryder Cup win with lots of the players signatures on it including Ballesteros.
Good times good times.
If you watch the BBC 1985 Ryder Cup video when they are interviewing Tony Jacklin at the end directly behind him is a guy with grey hair and moustache and if you look there is a 17 year old kid there with a flick haircut 😂 that’s me.
The Course Manager Derek Ganning who I worked under every year got given a European Tour Patrons badge which got you in any European Tour event free with unlimited access around like inside the ropes everywhere no restrictions.
I’ve been all over the place and had dinner in Wentworth Clubhouse with Seve Ballesteros and his family on the table next to us 😂
Derek Ganning the Course Manager you can google him he sadly died in 2022.
He was awarded the BEM British Empire Medal in I think it was 1989 for his services to Golf.Ill try to dig the picture out of it.
I miss those days 🥲
Brilliant video again BUT Daniel, how do I rid my lawn of Ants and the uneven surface/bumps they cause?
No cure as far as i know
Any tips for seeding where the dog has been peeing? Love the channel 👍
You have to dig it out and put fresh soil in then turf or seed
Another top job Dan . What was the scarifier height set at please as I have a Stirling 51 . Thanks Dan
I was in the cutting range around 5mm
@@DanielHibbertLawnExpert Thank you Dan .
Excellent job Dan, loving the videos. I don’t suppose you taking on new customers? Leyland area.
No mate no new ones coming on board now not even in Bolton
@@DanielHibbertLawnExpert no worries at all buddy, totally understand. I’ll continue watching and have a go myself. 👍
Hello Daniel great videos and more bwfc stories. I want an electric napsac . Seen yours retails at 170£ to much😫 can you recommend one for private use please also can I have a link for the fleece you use please thanks again brilliant 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👊🏼👍🏼
Its just fleece available anywhere if you look on ebay, and dont know any decent sprayers but buy dear buy once,
Weeping copiously looking at this magnificent lawn. I managed to do 1 partial scarify and spray of moss killer at the end of February, then the heavens opened. I have not been able to get onto the lawn without doing damage. I have had a tarpaulin on the worst bit, for over a week to try to dry it out a bit/prevent it getting wet. Every time we get a bit of sunshine, it pelts it down later. I don't think my garden will recover properly this year. 😭
You will be surprised at what a bit of sun does to help dry it out
@@DanielHibbertLawnExpert Thanks for being so positive Dan. The water table is very high here in Hampshire. We just don't know when we will get onto the lawns as the long range weather forecast is for rain everyday till 11th April. Happy Easter to you, I am so impressed with your work and love watching you perform your magic. 🐣
@@elisabethhopson5639 honestly in a few week you will be watering the lawn as it so dry knowing England
@@DanielHibbertLawnExpert Thanks again. In 2022 my lawn got so burnt by the sun it turned to dust in patches. When the weather eased, I watered it after the ban was lifted, mowed and fed it with seaweed fertiliser. Within weeks it was back to normal. Now, it has been drenched by rain to the point where it has disappeared. Is there any of your products I should be using to increase the resilience of my grass, so that it has half a chance of survival? Thanks.
@@elisabethhopson5639 drainage in a bag will help start drying it out, then h2go will maximise the water efficacy when you water by letting water through as your lawn will be very hydrophobic in the dryer times
I'm nervous about starting up in lawncare, purely because I don't really know much, and have been exhausting myself watching videos - on how to cut and care for grass :/
I haven't even tested a new mulching self propelled mower!
Is mulching any good or sould i just bag it? Any tips for anything appreciated :(
Always bag it my opinion as if kids are running around on it they end up taking it into the house especially if wet,
Hi Dan. Im seeding a new lawn. I was going to wait 4 weeks to put some equilibrium down. Can i put some of your magic liquid lawn feed down at the same time as the equilibrium? And would that be ok after 4 weeks?
Yeah that be fine but why not put the liquid down after 3 weeks as will be hungry
@@DanielHibbertLawnExpert will do that then. Thanks for the advice. Much appreciated 👍
on the eleventh of march was that a light scarification (high setting)? you didn't cut lawn short before?
Amazing result, you are a lawn guru
No just light scarify i had cut it the week or so prior
@@DanielHibbertLawnExpert how often would you use your verticutting cartridge vs the scarifier (spring tine one)
I'm always confused, some people say they only use the verticutting cassette saying it's more than enough
@@clement6574 prob use the verticutting one more as less aggressive
@@DanielHibbertLawnExpert cheers, have a god evening mate!
Love the videos.
What pet friendly weed killer do you recommend for large lawns? I was about to get the Resolva Concentrate Lawn Weedkiller Extra on your recommendation, but I think the guidelines state keep pets away.
Have you ever had any issues?
No dead pets on my watch but im
Not saying its good for them, they would have to drink it neat i think to get sick, if worried consult the manufacturer
@@DanielHibbertLawnExpert Thanks for replying so quickly during your working day.
Top man.
Where’s that circle lawn gone to? The one with the nice views
Dogs are weeing over it so defeats the object of filming there now
ah a shame!@@DanielHibbertLawnExpert
I'm in Bolton myself and I've got an interesting/challenging back garden lawn for you if you want to take a look, I'm at my witts end with it.
Question Dan, as a natural fertilizer, I have been thinking, is nettle soup good for grass? I can't find much literature saying its good or bad, whats your thoughts? Love your work and I am completely addicted to your content. Love your care and attention to these lawns
Nettle soup thats a new one, never heard of it but only one way to find out and that to make some
Im definately not an organic gardener
Going to give it a go, high in Nitrogen content mostly used in leafy veg plants. Not much on grass but thought I would ask incase you had any thoughts. Takes a while to ferment but will let you know if its any good 🤣
@@mikedean1989 im
Not going to use it not my thing
Dan could you tell me what color and make of your flat head sprayer head you use for your products. I am using blue, but I do not seem to get much spray width with it. Peter
White flat fan
Dan, thank you for your quick response, should that be any make, or are they all the same. Peter
@@peterlock9264 no you have to buy off agrigem or somewhere like that do not buy off ebay cheap rubbish imitations
@@DanielHibbertLawnExpert
Thank you Dan. Peter
Dan, i have tried agrigem site but they do not seem to have the white fan head.
agritech have Hypro which the say are fitted to Berthoud as well as agrigem ones, but they also sell on ebay. In your opinion are they ok or just ebay crap. the charge £4.95 each. peter
What do you think of a product called Mo bacter it's for moss and thatch ?
Have i ever used it?
@@DanielHibbertLawnExpert yes have you used it an if so what was your verdict please
@@Lawnfeteler no never used it
Here's a question mate - my lawn is decent but sometimes crab grass keeps popping up - i dig it out by roots and instead of seeding, I have grown grass separately in potting trays and transplanted it bare spots. Have you ever done this??
Nar mate i just replace with good lawn and then reseed one area in the lawn, check these vids out

Fantastic looking lawn, great job! Quick question? I have an infestation with leatherjackets and have been trying to get rid of them for 3 years now, I have tried nemetodes, but they seem to do very little if anything, Is there any pesticides available now for them, i belive the pesticides where banned some years back. I am currently moveing a Tarp about the garden and have only done one edge so far and have picked up close on 3-400 so far. Needles to say the lawn is a wreck again.
Bottle has some Russian letters, think its where is from anyways. They know thing or two about a poison 😂😂 please avoid any drains, ponds, water or any living thing in your garden. No pets or children can go on your lawn next 3-4 days. Wear full PPE when handling, apart from that all good. On the bonus side I have not seen any worm casts since the application. Worms still there since I still see them coming out but no casts. Hope this helped? I just no how you feel so could not pass by without help. I know Dans against on all this kind a thing which is not an organic way but sometimes its necessity.
