Blane really just wants to get the job done 😂😂
Blane is going to do all the work, and I am just going to film it like a bad action movie! 😉 (Just kidding, thanks for the tips!)
I'll help Blaine get the job done
Believe it. 🤣
lol, his whole mood was like "man come on"
As soon as the boss said it's good, Blaine's hands instantly released the rake.
Pro tip:
Add a thin layer of peat moss over the top and it’ll cut your watering down to 1x/day and give you more consistent germination.
Seriously!!!! Or manure at 1/4"
I use light layer manure compost on top of the seeds
Here in the South Carolina, we just loosen up the red clay sow the seed and cover with straw and water daily to keep top layer moist enough to keep soil from drying out. No expensive black dirt i.e._ topsoil. Topsoil here in the upstate SC area is long gone. I live on lake Greenwood in Greenwood SC so my property drops 40' over a 375-foot span from front to back. That is why the straw is a must to keep seed and dirt from washing. Timing is crucial to prevent washing from heavy rains.
No bullsh1t and dribble =confusion like majority of channels, where I found where just contradicting themselves..
Unlike here where I found it clear n precise …thank you, AMEN 🙏
Wish more dudes in landscaping were like these guys... just seem cool to work with. Thanks for the vids!
Thanks for watching!
I like to throw the seed. Give it a try and you will be amazed at how evenly it puts it down.
Exactly ! A hand full side arm throw , sends the seed perfectly separated in the areas
Can I mix the seed with old grass (weed free ) and lay it? I ain't doing all this. I don't know what the hell they are talking about here. I tilled the soil saved the old dried out grass. I was told it's the best natural product to use. Cant use hay not allowed it blows everywhere. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I liked your line at the end "Drink plenty of water" last week I in in Southeast Wisconsin and the official high last Friday & Saturday was 112 degrees. I didn't even go out and try to do any work in that kind of heat. lol I took 2 days off messed up my schedule but my safety was more important. Also my new friend & colleague I meet at the Illinois Arborist Convention last week. Daniel M. gave you high reviews along with myself. I enjoy what you are teaching people
Thank you Bill, it's nice to have some relief from the heat this week !
@@Dirtmonkey The down side to all this hear is my schedule is messed up and I really want to go golfing instead of working. lol
Well I wasn't gonna subscribe, but then I saw the DragonBall: Z figures in the office and was like "see, now this is a man you can trust."
Facts
I like to seed and rake it in and then lightly seed again
your seeding skills are over "9000" !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So to summarize, add black soil on top of existing soil, rake in and combine together, level it out, then add seed, lightly rake in seed and lightly water.
Time of year is extremely important to guys, like he said check out what agricultural zone you live in. Cool season grass must be sewn in fall of the year if you live in a warmer climate, spring time for warm season grasses with really hot climate. Great vid man, I been spraying yards in NC for many years. Good info.
Thank you Derrick!
Cover with a thin layer of straw or hay will hold moisture throughout the day and give an armor to the soil.
up here in Michigan, a light straw covering works wonders on speed up grass growth. A friend of mine seeded his lawn and were he didn;t put staw down , only about half the seed came up.
This is simple and intuitive. Thanks! I did this process without watching this video but my question was too rake it not to rake after spreading the seed... Now I know.
The alt title to this should be "Seeding Your Lawn With God"
I just bought a house, and I need to plant grass seeds. I hopped on TH-cam, and while procrastinating I was watching Dragonsball PeePee. Then came here and saw the DBZ figures. Glad my TH-cam algorithm knows who I can trust.
I like how he checks himself with his friend Blane.
Another good trick is to take a spring rake flipped over or bent tines up and pull it through the soil, it gives good seed to soil contact. Also if forced to spring or summer seed spray low dose Drive XLR on the soil prior to seeding it will keep the weeds from germinating or use tupersan. Great video 👍
I had an after thought, depending on your state regulations in order to use the products mentioned in a commercial setting you may need a pesticides lic.
Thanks Cory !
Stan - do you ever blend a fertilizer into the dirt before seeding? Or just keep the top soil and seed watered like you said? Also, do you ever put a covering of straw over the seed? Thanks! Keep doing what you’re doing. Vids are awesome. Learning a lot!
Great Video!! I am seeding and learned some crucial tips!! First lawn renovation is a success!! Thanks for the 📹!!!! Great channel!!
Thanks for the tips I'm getting my yard ready for seeding now in Las Vegas, wish me luck, I'll get back to you in a few weeks.
Best of luck, thanks for watching!
How did it go
How's the draught?
Nice job Stanley! I like your hard sub- base, while shuffling the surface soils loose and together.
And also your seeding technique!
I do it the same way as you in my landscaping business.
Keep up the nice work! Rob
Thanks a lot Rob, much appreciated!
I gave a thumbs up for that great dirt unibrow
The true measure of a man is the anime he watches. Thank you for this!
🤣👍
You better get a hold of Andy Whitcomb (Whitcomb Whitetails)(out of Princeton, Mn) he has a lawn seed mix that grows in straight sand. Get a video of that and the lawns he has done. He seeded my house with no black dirt at all. Yes it does take quite a bit of water but definitely worth the cost reduction up front of hauling in black dirt.
Well I'll be darned, I grew up in St. Louis Park. Born in Duluth. I knew that you were a good man.
I use a shaker can. I just don’t have that level of control with my hand only I seem to make clumped areas with just my hand. 16 oz can with some holes in the side at the bottom.
so how are you going to get the cat out now 🤣🤣🤣
Lol
Wow that's literally just wasting seed. I think it takes more common sense to know when to spend the 10 bucks on a handheld seed spreader at the very least, to save time and money not having to finesse seed into the correct density with the hand-waving and dancing. I still agree with most-everything you guys do. Great channel. Thanks for sharing 👍
Hand spreading is better for small areas if done correctly, he did not broadcast he sprinkled. LOL
Outstanding job gentlemen!!!
Thank you so much
This should have part 2, I wonder what it look like now?
Thanks for this post! Grateful for TH-cam!
Top soil like that has weed seed ans rocks. Head to organic recycling center, get lawn soil made from tree and leaf matter. They add sand and compost and blod and bone. Only double the price.
3rd landscaping video I've seen today with a Blaine. Blaines love landscaping!
Did you use a tiller before seeding?
This was a great video. It answered all of my questions! Thank u.
Agree the logic is you have to mix the soil for drainage or it might pool and the root/ seed may rot. This logic applies to alot of growing not just grass crops.
That is true, seeds do not kill each other
I can get grass to grow into hardclay sand mix all it takes is a bit of grass clippings.
Excellent! I live in Minnesota the perfect process that I needed!
Glad it was helpful, thanks Ellen !
Great video brother keep up the awesome work
Hey thanks Thomas, appreciate that!!
Starter fertilizer?
Thats a beautiful end product
Thanks and thanks for watching !!
When did John Travolta go into the lawn care business?
Awesome! Great video. One question. When you say, you have to reseed... do you reseed when the grass starts to grow 1-2 inches and add more seed where all the soil is not showing any signs of seed germination?
Gotta tell ya! The Thumbnail got me in here lol....I've seeded so much land on our farm it's unbelievable. Dog Days of summer ...tough time for seeds to take hold. As always great video and great info Stan the Dirt Man!
Stoney Ridge Farmer Wooooo
Hand spreading is more precise than a broadcast spreader - look at what Blane did. That’s bad, too much 🤣
Great video guys
Thanks a lot Temo!
Came for the ‘fix my lawn’ info, stayed for the DBZ office details.
Thanks for being here and watching Stephan !
First things first, get some paper towels & rubbing alcohol. Then turn your keyboard off and clean those keys...lol
And then add the grass seed?
dragonballz in the background. love it!
Why don’t you put straw over top of it to hold the moisture in
That keyboard is wild!
Do you have any advice how to do opposite? Make the grass grow slower? Get rid of weeds from it?
In the northwest I have not fertilized in 10 years and I only water once per week really deep in the 2 hot months. Plus leave the grass like 4-5 inches long. The weed seeds have a hard time even getting to the soil.
The negative is the mild green color instead of dark green.
nice axe to grind shirt
Gracias senor
Nice Bucky Badger shirt!
Go Badgers!!!
I just fill a large empty plastic store-bought spice container (about 32 oz) and use that. It has various hole settings.
8:20 I use a kung-foo inspired technique mostly commonly known as “#DrunkGuyFeedinThemChickens”!
Lol, Great hand technique there with the go pro on 🤪
Grab a leaf rake and sow it in then over seed. Very important.
Thanks Stan.
No problem Shane, thank you
Good stuff . I am doing my lawn now . Hoping it works ha
If it means anything, I never noticed your keyboard. I was trying to pay close attention to everything you were saying... the procedure for growing grass.I didn’t have a lot of success last spring. I am giving it another shot.
$20 will get ya a Scott's wizz. Perfect for small areas. Nice video.
What if I have to fill in not level ground with dirt, then just top it off with grass seed?
Really good info, thanks!
You look like John Travolta.
I wish there was an updated video so see how the lawn turned out 😮!!
Do you recommend germinating seeds, soaking for a few (5-7) days, in lower Fairfield county Connecticut ? Will have to mix the damp germinated soil with dry ingredients...use Peat moss? Fertilizer? Please advise.
I have a very bumpy, un-level side lawn as had to dig up yard to install water draining Cultech systems. So, will order about 20 yards of topsoil...I have about 5500 square feet of lawn/yard area that I will resoil and reseed.
Further, any need to mix in sand? Lots of rocks, both big and small, in yard....Connecticut tings' 😊 Thanks.
This is the video i was looking for
Hope you enjoyed it, thank you !
Love the DBZ poster!
The Goku art.. yes 😁
Hey you would be awesome at hand puppets you could attract the younger landscapers of the future some to think about
Problem with SOD is it takes double the watering to take and the majority of the roots are cut at the farm and dies extremelyeasily. People are far better off doing a top quality ground covering with seed and straw
Lawn rookie here...How do you combine the pure black dirt with sand, clay binder (?), Etc.. do you just dump it all on the ground and then combine with your rake?
Do you have the video of what it looks like after ?
So your telling me I did it all wrong!! Now wonder half of it grew great and half didn’t at all, I dug up a flower bed and grass seeded, the loose part when the bed was is lush and thick, the old part that was dead didn’t grow at all because I apparently didn’t loosen it enough
Thanks Bunches! Getting ready to till/rake our back yard which had been trampled dead by our Dobermans. Good to know on the quantity of seed ( I have obviously been putting down way too much.
Thanks for watching Thomas and hope it helps you out !
Super saiyan goku poster ftw
you dont have the ventrac anymore???? That seeding project would have taken about 3.7 seconds to complete if so.
Damn dude, I didn't know you were a local! You must be a transport bc there's definitely no accent. Go Wild. Truly appreciate your insights because here in SW suburbs my acreage is killing me with shade&clay. If you're ever looking for a bizarre property, I've got it!
I'm so confused. What do you mean by "black soil"? Is that just topsoil and I just add 1/3 sand and 1/3 compost or is black soil something specific?
Lol!!! Black dirt. Get it straight
@@jameschaves5723Rude.
how did you get that ASV RT-78 out after spreading that seed? wouldn't it compact anything it went over?
This video is useful 👏👏👏
Glad to hear it, thanks Rebaz!
Poor Blane catched a uni brow from working so hard 🤣
Your channel has many talented people. You are very much and explain thing very well. Thanks for that. I have to re do a proper draining around my house because i get water in the basement and the last owner just put mulch arou d to make looks good and some sides are higher and other are lower. What is the proper way to mark the starting point from siding of the house to get ptoper slope ALL THE WAY TO THE back yard? Thanks.
Thank you for this video, I just got scammed for $700 ! 😭😭they just scattered seed and fertilizer on top and told me to water twice a week!! But it’s been2 weeks nothing happens 😓😓😓
Great video! Learned a lot. Just killed off my overtaken with bent grass lawn here in Michigan. I live on a golf course and have put it off for to long. It's all dead now and I tilled it up and have it mostly raked out and leveled. I think it's to late to seed now because of frost and winter coming and I plan on waiting until Spring to seed. Anything I should do before that time? Any recommendations are welcome!
What about hay or straw mulch?
What about the birds, don't they eat the seed? I was told to cover the seed, out of sight, out of mind. Fish net helps, grubs are a big problem.
Thank you!
Is there anyway we could see how the job looks today two years later??
That Mac Keyboard... Lol you can tell you're coming in from working to type on that thing. I'd trust you if I was in a meeting about lawn care and that was your keyboard. Clearly you get your hands dirty too.
salt and pepper or feed the chickens patterns lol thats what it looks like
were is the starter fertilizer
Looks like this guy was working the dirt with his face lol
I could use some tips for my yard. Lol
I got huge areas where the the grass is all yellowed and basically dead because weeds have taken root and sucked up all the water. I actually planned on tying to rip out the whole area section by section until I get plain dirt and granulated the dirt as much as possible so I can lay down fresh seed. Its currently may 5th
Here where I live Stockton California
I bought a grass seed called tall fescue not sure if its gonna grow or not. Any ideas tips or tricks? Do you think the seed will work? I figured I should ask an expert.
I planed on starting my yard project thursday.
Can you get a clear box to show the levels of how we should do it ? That would be freaking dope !
Wondering if you can help. I didn’t remove my old turf, I tiller the turf into the soil and was going to over seeded. But I now want to lay sow instead of seeding. Would it be okay to laydown some fresh topsoil and than lay the sow. (Help)
