Just smashed the 👍🏻 and subscribed. Your lawn looks awesome! Keep up the good work. Love the energy, enthusiasm and positive vibes. Keep doing what you’re doing and trust the process. Throw down some more seed once the temps drop and you will be fine.
THANK YOU SO MUCH! I really appreciate you watching, liking, commenting, and subscribing! I really appreciate it! I can’t wait for the fall! A lot of great things to do to get this yard looking great!! Appreciate you!!
Thank you so much for this awesome comment! I really appreciate it! Thanks so much for subscribing!! I really appreciate it!! Keeps me going! Let’s Go!
Oooh, those stripes are looking nice! I haven’t tried striping myself yet, but one tip I’ve heard consistently is to go over the same stripes two or three times to really “burn” them in. I think it presses the grass down further. Also I laughed at your comment regarding new tools/equipment not staying pretty. I’m SO like that and always have to calm myself down when I get a scratch on a new piece of equipment. 😂
i have one of those also.but noticed it strips better if u put some weight on it .i welded some heavey steel on it for weight and did my stripes 2 or 3 times to burn it in.big difference!!
I really enjoy the Ego line! I love the fact that I can swap batteries for each tool and get to moving without any hesitation. I’m a newbie at all of this so I might be bias:) Thanks for watching and commenting!
Stripe east to west so the sun will always most those stripes pop. Can go over it two time to really get those stripes in the lawn. Go get some compost bags and put that in your lawn rake it in. I put 8 to 10 bags on my lawn this spring and doing good ill do the same this fall. Feed the soil and your grass will grow.
Love this!! Thanks so much! I’m going to try this on my next mow, and add the compost and rake it in! I want my lawn green, plush, and crisp!! Thanks for watching and commenting. I really appreciate it!
Looks good. You have to mix it up tho. Mow north and south on one week and east & west on another. I get the most compliments when I mow (if your yard was a clock) at an angle, say 2 and 8 and the next week 10 & 4. To get really good stripes, you need to mow 2 or 3 times in one direction. (No one said this was easy) Your yard is a little bigger than mine and would look good with the double-wide stripes. check it out on TH-cam. Good luck!
Love this advice! I’m on it! It’s Saturday and I already want to mow again!! I’ll check out the double wide stripes videos today! Thanks for watching and commenting again:)
I completely disagree. I first run a perimeter everywhere but the street and I’ve got a curb. You don’t get a full stripe if you don’t run the roller all the way to the street. Run to the street when you mow in this direction (up/down) and when at 45*. You should cycle between directions every mow…and bag the clippings.
Hang in there bro, list the location, check out Ron Henry, YardBrah and a few others. Based on your energy I know you will like those guys.. Great job!!!
Nice video brotha! I didn't know ego made a stripe kit for their mowers. Ps: try not to show your address or make sure you blur it out. Lot of weirdos on the internet
Hey there! No I didn’t have to do any of that. Just latched the kit on the wheels! Really easy! I highly recommend it! Thanks for watching and commenting! Appreciate it!!
lol! I know, it’s been a challenge, but I must admit it’s been fun. I’ve never done anything like this before, so even though it’s not the best yet, I’m happy about it! Thanks for watching and commenting!
I have not done that yet! I’m going to have to look that up! lol! I’m a newbie at all of this. Thanks for the suggestion, and thanks for watching!! I really appreciate it!
I’m not sure what state you’re in. But I would forget about the baby grass and just maintain what you have till the fall when the temperatures drop and try and replant then. I would highly recommend getting a good grass seed not something you just pick up from Lowe’s or Home Depot.
@@asuccessfulmindsetnow if you did the Scott’s rapid grass I’m assuming your growing fescue so I would go with Jonathan Green, GCI or some triple threat for a good fescue grass seed. I’m in central Nc and plan on using GCI tttf along with Jonathan Green dense shade for fescue and mixing in some fireball and hattrick perennial rye grass seed. Hopefully before the end of the month, depending on temperatures.
Your lawn doesn't look bad. There are spots that need to be filled in. If your lawn is 50% needs to be filled in then it's time to do a reset. But trying to grow grass in July that's hard. Early spring mid-fall. Well I assume this is still the end of July 2024. It's hard to get your lawn to do anything fantastic for you. As for striping I'm into natural look I go out of my way to use the blower to get rid of striping. I also mow my grass at 4 inches in July. I know that'll scare the heck out of all you. I go by the What a lawn needs rule. It needs sun, it needs food, It needs water and it needs to be mowed. Sometimes your law needs to be reset. That is the only time you pull out of Thatcher. If you bag your lawn every time You mow. You don't have to worry about thatch. I reuse the grass I bag. I turned it in compost. I mow half an acre that's another reason why I don't like stripes. And yes I use a walk behind It's not electric. I also drive a vehicle that's not electric It gets 17 miles to the gallon. I also live where it's cold in the winter our temperature range goes from -15 to as high as 100° Sum years in the summer. Welcome to Michigan. I will say The only person that needs to like your lawn is you no one else matters well...If you're married there's going to be somebody that's going to say.The outside is yours until she doesn't like it. Then hand her the lawn mower and say get busy it's yours now. Mine hasn't said that again.
Thank you so much for taking the time to write such awesome thoughtful feedback I truly appreciate that! I have to admit after trying this that planting seed for this big of a space in the summer was not the best idea! Love all of your info! Thanks for watching and commenting! I truly appreciate it!
That’s wassup Fam! I like what you’re doing and I’m in the same boat. I plan on starting a TH-cam channel as well, let’s encourage each other throughout our dream home journeys! ✊🏾💯

Go over it twice with the stripe kit brother
The stripes will POP after the second pass.
Great lawn!

Rake the dead stuff out, seed, put some dirt over the seed and sprinkle fertilizer over it.
Thanks so much for this! I’m about to aerate my lawn and will do this at the same time! Thanks so much again!
small tip: do a perimeter around your lawn so you don’t have to turn around in the street

Love the different angle as well! Thanks so much for this!
I have a Powersmart 26 inch cut mower that makes stripes like that right out of the box, no extra accessories
That’s cool! Is that gas or electric mower? Thanks for watching and commenting!
If you know you’re adequately watering you may want to treat for fungus or disease. Great video!
Thank you so much for this tip! I’m definitely gong to look into this! Thanks for watching and the nice comment as well! I appreciate you!

Thanks so much for this! I have to do a better job at blocking those things out! I really appreciate this comment!!
Look up how to germinate grass seeds. Yardbrah did an awesome job with the how to do it properly video!
Thanks so much for watching and commenting! My buddy told me about gnat just this past week! I’ll have to definitely give it a try!! Thanks again!
You didn’t have to remove the wheels and change the flapper on the mower to put the striping kit in?
Hey there! No I didn’t have to do any of that. Just latched the kit on the wheels! Really easy! I highly recommend it! Thanks for watching and commenting! Appreciate it!!
Go double wide, and it will look better. Go up the same direction side by side and then come down side by side.
Thank you so much for this tip! I’ll give it a try! Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
Told yo D.A. to wait till early September to start. It is pointless right now to try a summer seeding.
lol! I know, it’s been a challenge, but I must admit it’s been fun. I’ve never done anything like this before, so even though it’s not the best yet, I’m happy about it! Thanks for watching and commenting!
dethatcher then over seed
I will learn this and give it a try! Thanks so much for the suggestion! I appreciate this! Thanks for watching and commenting also!
Have you detached?
I have not done that yet! I’m going to have to look that up! lol! I’m a newbie at all of this. Thanks for the suggestion, and thanks for watching!! I really appreciate it!
What kind of grass os it
I’m using Scott’s rapid grass right now! Probably will change it up in the fall. Thanks for watching and commenting! Appreciate it!

@Rich3090 I agree! Thanks so much for the comment! I’m definitely going to get some seed from somewhere other than Lowes!
