Larry the Cable Guy teaching how to water a lawn. I love this channel!
Just so nobody gets confused, this is a complement.
I am lucky enough to live in Greensboro NC and found Pete via TH-cam. He not only does an amazing job taking care of my grass, he is always super responsive to questions. Keep up the great work Pete.
You do great work Pete, I appreciate you. You remind me of the proverb “ do you see a man skilled in his work? He will stand before Kings”
Awe man...a whole lot of goodness in this video Pete. My lawn is going thru heat stress as I type and it happens to be on a Milorganite regimen, so I’m glad you’re testing it out and sharing with us. I’ll keep my lawn watered good and keep my eye open for an update video notification. BTW, that impact sprinkler is all kind of awesome. Thanks for everything Pete. Bless
Now that’s the way to water your lawn...Way to go Pete and thanks for the video !!!
It's better to give than to receive. Best lesson I took from this video. Thumbs up P.
Just recieved my biostimulant package today! Looking forward to using them!
A 2gal battery powered sprayer would certainly help ensure a perfect even coverage 😉
Keep up the excellent content! It's awesome info and perfect to follow as a fellow NC resident.
The information you give is so good. Timely for us that watch your channel daily. Thanks
16:05-16:28 was the best part of your great and informative video. Such a blessing man, you're such a blessing. God bless
What's more pleasing than these educational videos is your faith. Continue the great work.
Good info Pete, thank you. Looking forward to the results and how the price points differ between the 2 ferts.
Maaan, now THAT'S a sprinkler! Can't wait to see what you have in store for the 4th, great video Pete!
I would be blessed getting a battery sprayer. It’s on my Christmas list. Thanks Pete!! Keep spreading the word!!
Excited to see the results
Really great, best lawn care info I've seen, Pete: thanks for doing these
Once again, another awesome video! Thank you Mr. Pete
I picked up that rotor style sprinkler and it's actually really good. I like it a lot and it's built well.
Been watching your videos for a couple weeks now. Crazy how fast your channel is gaining subs! Love the videos and I've learned a lot!
This is very humbling friend I can not get over how fast all this is happening
You give every day Pete. Thanks for taking the time and sharing your time, knowledge and experience with the lawn community. #GivingEveryDay
Thank you for this comment
Idk why I enjoy watching your videos! It’s so interesting! Keep it up!
Keep the videos coming! My wife just walked by and asked if I was watching 'my guy' again. 😂 Apparently I have a new obsession.
Keep doing what you do! Awesome teaching with a true message! Hope to get a sprayer either this fall or spring at the latest!
Yea Pete it is hot these days. Thanks for all your hard work and putting out this good content. Thanks brother!
and thank you for a realistic comment....boy, I am getting beat up over a stupid yard test LOL
Love your videos. My grass looks better than ever and it’s definitely due to your advice. Thanks for what you do!
thanks
Great video! The world needs more good men like you sir. I am learning a lot, keep up the great work!
Hey! We finally got a break in the heat in northern illinois. 3 days of overcast and rain.
Man, that sprinkler pumps!! I don't think my well could pump fast enough for it. Awesome stuff
keep em coming Pete. your the best.
love watching the old content!
One day I'll hope to get one of those back pack sprayer that you advertise. And got to love how my neighbor and my lawn looks compare to the other lawns.. healthy green with no watering systerm and mowing at 4"
Pete that is awesome. I need one of those sprinklers. Thanks for sharing.
Great video Pete! Good idea with the little sprinkler too.
"I don't have all day!" said Pete and his sprinkler!
Great update Pete. Hearing the tap tap tap of that big gun brought back some good memories of carrying 4" aluminum pipe all over the sandy tobacco fields of Sampson county as a kid. We had to drag 4 wet sacks of dirt to each position to keep the pressure from knocking it over.
Lawd!!!! I remember those days!!!
That big sprinkler was awesome! Brought out the big gun! Great video!
That’s some good stuff. Keep the videos coming.
I love your channel. My kids would go crazy with that sprinkler!! I need one of those
I love this test plot skit your doing, I’ve been a Milo guy myself for a while. I get pretty good results from the Milo app but as this video shows HEAT is a son of a gun. I’m really interested in your GCI fert and all the others you have and will hopefully get some soon. I’ve been saving up to get your regimen so hopefully soon I’ll be able to your product. Thank you for your advice and congrats on 21k+👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you for the kind comment. I am liking the MILO more and more as I use it and see how it works
21k! CONGRATS 👍🙏
Enjoyed watching this!
I live in Colorado. EVERY season is rough for lawns! We just went through almost a month of days in the lower 90's with humidity levels in the single digits all day. The lowest reading my weather station picked up was 1% one morning! Couple that with the wind and things dry out very fast. My water bill for this last month was $140, and I only have a total of 1,000 SF of grass!
Amen brother sending much love from south sweden great video
Thank you for an informative video.
Make the yard great again! Pete da man!
Great video Pete, It helps to get water on in the afternoons. At our school, we have cool season mixes and heat stress in the grass. I have been giving the turf extra water when I have been working there.
I noticed this year by using the academy program I am not watering nearly as much. Actually I have only watered my front twice and my backyard zero times. I am impressed!
CTUgangsta that is impressive, what besides humic acid do you think is the cause? How do you get thick dark green turf that doesnt need watering. Like to know what the other ingredients are just to understand it more.
J Ratliff I literally follow Pete's program to a T. I use the humic and his recommended fungicides. My lawn has never held its own like it has this year.
This made my night!!
GCI Turf Services I also follow Pete’s program to a T. Had a guy stop by my house yesterday just to find out what kind of fert I’m using. He said he’s been using milo but he’s not getting the results I’m getting. I told him just what Pete says in the video... milo is good stuff. But the academy fert is better
GCI Turf Services thanks for everything Pete. You have really helped me make my yard much better. Words cannot describe how thankful I am for you taking the time to do these videos and help others!
Pete, I got started late this year in the academy but hey, all the crab grass, clover, and every other broadleaf weeds known to hickory NC are dead already and my fescue is looking great. Can’t wait for aeration and seeding time to fill in the dead spots from the week kill. Getting my dirt right and I’ll be ready this fall brother. Thank for sharing the knowledge. God bless.
And THANK YOU for the encouraging comment! Man..... people on youtube will beat you up over the dumbest things LOL
FANTASTIC.
great job Pete..!!!! greetings from greece !!!!
Hey, I use black latex gloves too. Mostly when watering the lawn. I get mine from Harbor Freight for $12 for 50 pair of 9 mil thick gloves. I get many uses out of one pair so a box lasts me about 3 years.
Love the reason 🙌🏻
Love that sprinkler
Wow, I wasn't expecting that impact sprinkler to be that large. Instagram made it look smaller than it actually is. That thing is no joke.
yes sir it is a bad boy
Thankyou so much for such informative videos. I've been sick for learned so much from you. I work in my gardens 6-8hours. A day. God bless you.
The SIME heads are awesome! Surprised he didn' leave the K1 SIME head on with a 12 or 14mm noozle. I run the high pressure NorthStar pump, 2" line and the K1 with 12mm and cover 180ft diameter with ease. I giggle every time she is running full tilt and dumping water on the pastures.
my whole lawn died from flooding. This is the LAST thing i need right now, but very cool to watch!
Go Pete go - 50k subs coming soon
That's right amen better to give than receive
That’s one serious sprinkler
Pete my man enjoy your free education BZ
I get abnormally excited to see your next videos... I drive my wife nuts reciting "HEY it's Pete GCI Tutf" in that accent!
Love the videos dude keep them coming! Is there anyway to make your products available in Canada without choosing a million$ in shipping?
Alliston Rental I recite it too!! Haha it’s great
Yeah that intro is a classic !
I wish I could ship them to Canada but can not as of now
Pete's got the shades on again
Cool season lawn here, in CT and 3 weeks with no rain. Not doin so well!
Man one of those sprayers would be really nice love your videos man
You make good videos and have a lot more knowledge than almost all of us. Its very hard to think you are being completely unbiased and fair since you are selling a product that competes with milorganite.
Brian Allen excellent point sir. While he tries to be sincere, his claims cannot be considered unbiased. Fact is, I can’t even get Milorganite right now because it’s bought up as soon as it hits the shelves.
michelle delaney I don't want anyone thinking I against him at all. I subscribe to the channel. I just see it as a conflict of interest is all. Not really a big deal, just something I keep in the back of my mind.
You better start doing your homework Michelle. The "academy" fertilizer is not his product. He isn't really selling it. He pushes us members towards it because it has proven itself over years of him using it. He is a sincere dude that believes in everybody having the best yard they can. It you aren't a believer. Keep using Milorganite. People buy that because they have access to it in big box stores. This fertilizer is not as well known or in big box stores. It will dominate Milorganite. 💪😁
Jeff Williams you told me huh? He's pushing a product that's a direct competitor to milorganite. My statement still stands. Stop crying Jeff.
Brian I clearly wasn't speaking to you unless your name is Michelle. I don't know what the "you told me huh" line is about. That makes no sense. Nobody is crying so don't be a jackass. Everybody on this site gets along fine. But we all strongly believe in this program too and I am simply defending it.
Most of the turfgrass grown in North Carolina is cool season, Fescue and Bluegrass are the most dominant. Fine Fescue is also used.
Thanks Pete stay cool because I know it hot in Greensboro
Which fertilzer on your website is the Academy one you mentioned in the video? Trying to purchase, thank you!
Am in Greensboro NC love to see ur yard man
thats some crazy water output
Hey Pete, I need one of those sprinkler setups buddy, that set up would be perfect for what I’m trying to do. I’ve got almost 10 acres of produce planted in 3 separate fields and I’ve gotta get water on them somehow but I can not use the well for the entire plot.
Can you give me any specific info on where and what to get? I also need to pick your brain on other things that I think you could be of great help with and I know your a busy man but wonder if you could make a service call to the farm and look at the deficiencies I’m having and come up with a plan to correct. I’m just south of Burlington so I’m not real far from ya.
Take care Pete, your a good man and I appreciate everything you do for us buddy!
email me contact@gciturfacademy.com
Thanks for all of your help full information Pete my small company has benefitted from those sprayers look really nice God bless you and your family and business watched your video when you were on your anniversary and I felt truly inspired and I'm not kiddin when I say my phone rang the next day with couple of new clients which was so needed for us here in southeast Nebraska I thank you and your wife because you are correct having an exceptional wife makes all the difference would love to meet you in person sometime thank you
Thank you friend
That is *the* coolest sprinkler missile launcher I've ever seen 🤣🤣🤣
yes sir It's a pretty cool setup I appreciate you Matt!
People crack me up, not supose to water at night but yet rain at night is ok. Keep up the great content.
Congrats on the subs. You convinced me to try fescue grass, hard on it here in northern Arizona though. Glad I have flood irrigation, any more tips for 110 degrees with no rain and 20% humidity?
Top dress your lawn with a really good compost every fall. That’s the single thing that’s improved my heat/ drought tolerance the most out of anything.
gosh bro thats brutal! well watered fescue is my only advice
Another informative video. Thanks Pete. Any suggestions on a sprinkler for a smaller yard? Sled?
yep the sled does great in small yards
Wow....Sure need and would love win the sprayer. Your video's are very educational. My yard is Zoysia and this extreme heat is really kick in It's but. Keep making those video's
When you come to Oklahoma, bring the water wagon and that sprinkler! HAHA! Have a great weekend bro!
ha ha I am not sure my honda mini van will pull 1000 gallons LOL Have a great weekend bro!
Yeah, def. come to Oklahoma - my tall fescue is struggling in select areas... I’m watering every other day around 5am, mowing high about every three weeks and plan to apply Milorganite today. It’s averaging mid 90’s to high on the daily. Sheesh! Thanks for the video - God bless you brotha!
Good video
Thank you sir for your words and the word....greatly appreciated....need that gci fertilizer application I guess....tall fescue and marathon mix....in East Texas..I know....I know...stone headedness
A green circle in the yard would look pretty awesome from a drone!
Massachusetts needs rain as well. So far its' been a rough season for lawns.
That sprinkler is insane.
Great video! Where in nc are you? I’m in Winston-Salem, I work for Natures Select premium turf services “going on 5 years now” which has an organic program that does excellent but been dealing with “heat stress” really bad right now even with irrigated lawns! I don’t know what to tell these customers other than wait till it cools down!
Very familiar with you guys.... heat stressed yards need more water bro. Most folks with a water bill will not run the water as much as needed. I would love to meet you some day I am in Greensboro
#GetYourFreedomRight
Nice one, brother. That one made my eye tear up a little. We live in a great place.
Would love to get a sprayer to try doing liquid fert sprays. 2 gallon chapin sprayers just dont cut it for this much yard (15k)
Hi from Ireland !
Well, hello Ireland! Great to have you friend!
Pete, it's a good thing that you don't have to pay your water bill for the well water that you use on your lawn. That could become quite expensive in the harsh summer heat and little or no rain.
Question - By putting sooo much water on your test plot to try to revive it and letting your sprinklers even run overnight, aren't you doing some damage to the test plot and possibly creating a fungus-friendly area with so much moisture plus the heat and humidity?
By the way, I agree with other comments here that that was one helluva big boy sprinkler you were using there! :-)
no damage at all Ben I can easily apply a fungicide if needed
Hey Pete, let's rig this drawing! I need one of those sprayer 😉😉😉
LOL
Good gawd! It's like you called the fire brigade out to spray your yard and they broke out the heavy artillery. Do you think the humic acid plays a large role in the soil's ability to hold water and reduce heat stress? I gotta say watching that video where you stuck that soil probe way deep down into your yard was quite impressive and sparked my interest into researching humic products.
I feel it does...it's the main reason my lawn soil is not compacted
Pete, can you do a detailed breakdown video of your truck layout in this video. Dual tank set up from what I can see, but curious to know more about how to set one up and how you use it. Can you run glyphosate in one tank for concrete and gravel weeds and run turf products in the other for spaying grass areas? My concern would be cross contamination and not getting the hose assembly clean enough to do that. Just curious how I can do it. Im guessing two completely different tanks and hoses would be in order to do that.
Oh year we use 2 different tanks for sure. I do not put round up in tanks that spray lawns
Do u ship milorganite to Ireland?
Loving the Milo-Academy updates! Incredible difference. Milo so overhyped IMO. Curious to see how it does next few months. Get ready for more heat.. Expecting long duration heat wave for Philly-NYC areas starting next weekend so I imagine NC stays hot and dry.
HomesliceDrummer one bag is labeled for 2,500 sqft. His test plot is 4,000 sqft. He put two bags in the hopper, that should fertilize 5,000 sq ft. If you need to double bag rate to get results then you are proving the point that milorginite is a low quality fertilizer and not worth using unless you like throwing your money in the trash.
HomesliceDrummer there’s a shortage in box stores because this time last year not as many people knew about it so the stores didn’t order enough. And also because Allyn Hane, people like to jump on bandwagons. If you go to a turf supply store like site one or green resource they most likely will have the 50lbs bags.
The point is not that a lot of people are buying it. My point was that if you have to double bag rate then it is a poor quality nitrogen.
Demand and results are different. Give people a chance to realize the hype after trying it for a yr or 2.
#getyourheatwaveright
Great job as always.Love your shirt👍🇺🇸.Where can I get one.
What variety or blend of fescue are your plots, .... or what do you like best?
Also do you ever fiddle with wetting agents to help in summer?
yes i have tried wetting agents... there is five different brands of fescue in my test plot
Pete. Really would have liked an explanation on why you believe the two test plots are reacting to the heat differently. What one section is deficient of vs. the other. Thanks.
they are reacting different because of the difference in nutrition thats in each of the fertilizers being tested

Hi Pete
Do you have any affiliates in the Raleigh/Wake forest area? Do you sell bags of the academy fertilizer
How exactly do we enter in the drawing
Was that a fire hydrant you used to fill up or some kind of high capacity valve you have on your system?
I fill that 1000 gallon tank off a fire hydrant
