Excellent tutorial my brother!!!
Thank you Mr Lawn Care Nut.
You got a high distinction from Professor Al. Impressive.👍
Thanks Connor. This was easier to understand than most videos. Straight and to the point and simple
Great Video Connor. I use T-NEX and love it. I do your method exactly. The T-NEX will cause some temporary discoloring of my Bermuda grass, so I put down a small (Like 8 0z per 1000 sq foot) amount of 18-0-0 Greene Effect and some 0-0-2 MicroGreene in the sprayer as well. It (T-NEX) is a foliar product (as you mentioned) so it needs to be absorbed by the foliage for several hours to work. T-NEX really works well. I do use Blue Marker dye as well because it is irritating when I miss a strip and I have a "Mohawk Haircut" of tall grass that I missed. The Marker dye fades in the sun and with water; goes away in about 2-3 days.
John Fetter which dye do you use?
Blue marker dye from DoMyOwn.com. It is like $24 bucks a quart. Great company; outstanding service and free shipping.@@leandrorodriguez3896
The dye is a must for any collar application.
Thanks Connor, watching your vids for over a year. Should be interesting this spring and the results I've seen so far.
What a thoughtful gift from your wife! Great video, friend.
I like this Professor Ward guy. Great teacher! Thank you Lawn Rebel. 👍oooohhh yeaaahhh!
Do not be getting used to that.
Good video Connor! In all seriousness, the label is the law for real. Working as a commercial applicator, I can not say enough about why it is so important to stick to the label. Thanks !
My tip is about 4 inches and always seem to finish prematurely. Do you have any advice? Should i just go faster ?
@2:16 you know your a dad when your talking to adults like they are your kids goofing off in the grocery store
Awesome explanation of PGR. Thanks for explaining the calibration and importance of same.
"dont do that crap" love it-- made me laugh
Cracked me up too
Made me laugh cuz I’m so guilty of it, too!
A PGR like Primo (same thing) also has the added benefit of increased root and lateral growth. It is also a major stress reliever in turf when applied PRIOR to high heat and humidity. I would avoid spraying it during severe heat in cool season grass but leading up to and before the heat it works fabulous. On my putting green I apply every 200 GDD at a 50 degree base temp. Sounds confusing but it's very simple really. My rate is 1/8 ounce per thousand so I've had the same bottle of Primo for about 5 years now.
Love your videos Connor, you make me laugh. Keep that lawn beautiful!
Thanks for watching.
I am a bit spoiled to have access to an exmark sprayer spreader that I use for work. I fill it with 20 gallons of water and add 6 oz’s of plant growth regulator and keep running over my 10,000 square foot of turf until my tank is empty. With a super diluted solution any error in application is virtually eliminated.
Does the TNex slow the accumulation rate of snow pack?
Reel Low Dad that right there is a pin worthy comment.
yes. It work similar to the Super Juice.
I say mix the super juice and tnex and thrower down! #thisisnotLCNsponsored
Great job Buddy!! I am getting impatient to be out in my lawn. We still have about 10 inches of snow on our lawn and expecting another 3 to 6 inches tonight. How I wish Spring would get here soon.
Excellent video! This will be my 1st full year with a Reel Mower in Oklahoma City... My 1st jug of T-Nex will be delivered tomorrow! Should be exciting to see how well it works & do it's thing! Will be mowing at .50" this year!
Be careful... This stuff is extremely addictive
Thanks Connor for the content.
😂😂😂figures you'd have a pink journal with mingo on it. Good info none the less really been meaning to look into this product.
It is worth it even if it is expensive. I have to warn you though.. It is highly addictive.
When your buying N-Ext products this stuff ain't all that bad price wise. But at least your getting five gallons with N-Ext what a #pisseroffer😂 Next time I see you in person I'm buying you a beer or pink lemonade which ever you fancy. When your in the zone doing your TH-cam thing you look pretty intense (or focused). None the less was cool seeing you in person. In other news Ben Sims is crushing it with that carpet of his.
Great info. Thanks for sharing.
Any experience with using to much ? I dont consider myself a newbie but I made a newbie mistake applied the amount suggested for zoysia on st Augustine because I was dealing with multiple yards and one was mixed with both grass types . A little tip burn so far but nothing that can't be reversed (so far) 🤓
Second! Not too shabby!
good work
I prefer the more mullety/grumpy Rebel of today!
I walked like “that crap” my first spray 😂
Good video and instructions Connor. Thx!
So how many gallons of water do I use with T-Nex? And how many times do I have to walk around my lawn in circles when I spray it?
Watch the video again. Definitely walk around is circles constantly. Never hurts
Looking forward to incorporating a PGR into my lawn program this year
You will not be disappointed
Hi Conner, just curious about something. As you said, this product is mainly intended for non-homeowners, so I wonder if their application rate chart isn't precise enough for your lawn conditions? In other words, if you look at the suggested application rates, there's a strong link between rate and grass height. The app rate listed for your grass type may be intended for more typical (longer) cut height. Have you tried reducing the rate and checking the longevity of the growth retardation? As a little experiment last year, I used min and max recommended rates for my 1/2" hybrid bermuda and saw little increase in longevity with the max rate but significant discoloration of the grass (plus, more expense!).
First Kaiser Wilhelm! Love it!
Love that Kaiser Wilhelm. He had it going on
Thanks for the video Conor. This will be my first year using the T-Nex. I'm near Chicago, so I have the same grass type as you do. Quick question, does T-Nex have to be watered in? Or can it just be sprayed onto the lawn and left alone? TIA.
Tnex is taken up into the plant through the leaves. No water in necessary
Yes.. what Colin Seaberg said.
I have a northern mix and my grass takes 2 gallons which is 1250 sq ft , how much t nex i need to put on those 2 gallons?
This will be my first year with t-nex.
Good man. Be careful this stuff is highly addictive. Does not look like you were up at 3 am last night.
Connor Ward for some reason my kid let me sleep all night. My wife wasn’t too happy that the first thing she heard this morning was you talking about t-nex.
Don’t listen to him Jon he posted st 3AM his time which was 4AM our time. He’s a cheater!!
John Pinkerton do we expect anything less from Connor these days?
Great Explainer Connor! How do you determine when to apply and reapply the T-Nex do you use Growing Degree Days or something else?
Using a growing degree day model has proven to be more effective than a calendar based model in regulating growth rate of turfgrasses. A good resource to look at is the "green keeper app" . It has loads of great information especially dealing with growing degree days and growth regulators.
Colin Seaberg I guess my question is how do you know when to reapply is it at a certain GDD level? Which base temp do you use? I use my own spreadsheet for tracking it all but want to understand the cycles better before applying...
@@gregwatts9009 Generally for cool season turfgrasses a degree model of 200 - 230 degree days is used based on several recent studies. In each of those studies a base temperature of 0 deg Celsius is used.
Does this stuff burn your lawn if you use too much?
When did the Lawn Rebel turn into LCN???
last night.
Professor Al is rubbing off on him since Lawncology.😁
Thanks for the great video. I noticed that you have the same prodiamine product I have and was just curious on what rate are you going to apply. I was thinking I would do .33oz per 1000 for my first app. And is this product different from the WDG prodiamine? Thanks again. 👍🏻
Don't think that it is any different. I am going to take the yearly app rate and do 50%.one app now and one app in the fall
Thank you!
you bet. Hope this somehow helps someone
Thanks man you the best !!
how much butter should I put in the sprayer?
Found the butter!
Good eye
I’m wondering , when you remove the glasses does the moustache and comedy nose come with it ? They can’t both be real?
Yes... It's true
The trick is Humic Acid and a leaf blower. Humic Acid makes the roots grow deep and strong. 😁
That butter keeps moving around. I wonder if it can be used as some sort of surfactant. Probably need the salted kind. Got my TNex in last month and now I'm just waiting for my KBG to start growing so I can slow it down!
Cool you are going to love it
How many applications does it takeof t nex to get a golf course look?
I’ve done two applications already mowing is less but look isn’t much better
It's mid summer so naturally it's not going to look really good. Just keep mowing it. The grass has to be trained or conditioned to the new height. More more often than you would think you would need to
Connor Ward
Turns out 3 is the magic number according to label which was my impression
The area of my yard that’s in an alley way in the shade is the area with the most progress so what you’re saying makes sense
I have 1250 sq ft of lawn how much water i need and how much product do i need ?
That 'stache is on point!!! What product are you putting in the mustache and how do you calibrate that?
Handmade La Conner mustache wax and a blow dryer. good stuff
Humic Acid and a leaf blower. 👍
No waddle back and forth, walking backwards, spraying side to side...?
Don't even think about it
Can't wait to test out PGR, seems to be a game changer.
It is a game changer. You will love it. Beware... it is addictive
Mr Stash👍, can you tell me how long does that container of T-nex last you, along with the Prodiamine. Just like to know. The T-nex is not a inexpensive item to buy.
Only mix up what you need for that particular day. This bottle lasts me like a year and a half but I have a wayyyyyy bigger lawn than most. I have 20k ft. Average lawn is 5k
@@lawnrebel, Awesome thanks. Question Lawn Tips guy on TH-cam gave a link from the U of Nebraska PGR calculation sheet in Excel. Have you seen this and or tried to use it? Side note my T-Nex just arrived this afternoon. :)
Iron or manganese should be applied to offset discoloration with a pgr
Do you put them down at the same time? The T-nex and prodiamine?
I wouldn't. T nex needs to be foliar applied. Prodiamine needs to be soil applied
@@lawnrebel awesome. Thanks for the quick response. Love your videos! Parade dances could use some work but the grass videos are on point ;)
This video helped me. Thank you.
Someone's ready for Spring. 😉
Great video sir! Thanks for the info😊
Wow. No chance at first even in the dead of night
Did that on purpose for the west coasters.
And the Aussies.👍
Filthy First😁👍👍Great informative video.Thanks Connor.How is “The Beast” mower coming along ,any progress ?
Update coming soon.
Connor, Can we use a hose end sprayer to spray this?
Not Connor, but I wouldn't
No. DO NOT DO THIS
Can you use it to keep edges and string trimming to a minimum?
Yes all the lawn
Had a jug for months waiting on this weather to be a little more “normal” before newbie first app... I’m scared.
5th! do you put colour in, some people do that around here when spraying so they know where they sprayed
It generally is a good idea to add a colorant "spray indicator". It is very cheap and will allow the applicator to know where they have applied chemicals so to significantly cut down on excessive over lap. This is very important when applying growth regulators and herbicides as they have the most potential to injury turf if applied to heavy.
??? I have 1250 sq ft of lawn and 2 gallons of water how many ounces of t nex can i apply
Watch the video again
You're not spraying a gallon per 1,000 with that sprayer unless you're walking 1 mile an hour, also might want to start with a half ounce per 1,000 on your first app and work your way up to .75 ounce per 1,000.
Why did you do an extra calculation based on 4 gallons? Your yard is only 3K what you figured out already
Because I have 20,000 sq ft. I like to figure it out per each 5 gallon bucket of product.
Good stuff Connor!
Connor, How often do you use the TNex?
In the video he stated every 21 days
Dope hat
Agreed 🤝
Nice video bruh!
Group,
In the video Connor stated that the label does not stipulate in how much water volume the T-nex should be applied. It actually does under the "Mixing Directions" section. "Add Quali-Pro®T-Nex®to a sufficient amount of water (ex., 0.5 to 4.0 gallons of water per 1000sq ft)" . This means that after you calibrate your equipment and find out how much water you are applying per thousand square feet of turf, it should fall into this range. If it does than you are fine. If if does not then the product may not work effectively and you should change something in your spraying procedure to become compliant to the label. If you are too heavy than maybe walk a little faster.. you also may have to change out your nozzle.
No.......your to heavy!
Thank you for posting this info
You are welcome sir. @@lawnrebel
Someone needs to begin seeking a homeowner version of PGR, one that's in a smaller container that is less expensive. A gallon container would last me ten years.
yes... It is a lot of product for the average homeowner. Even if you do not use it all it is still worth the cost for the gallon. Share it with a friend. Group buy
@@lawnrebelUnfortunately, nobody around me that I know of gives a crap about their yard enough to buy stuff like that. lol
If you go on vacation during peak grass growing season, this stuff will pay for itself right away when you don't have to pay a stranger to mow your yard a couple times while you're gone!
Not first, drinking coffee
“Don’t do that crap.” 💩

M = 1000 not k. E,C,M is E =1, C = 100, M = 1000 sorry about being asinine. :) Standard Commerical Abbreviations.
Love it you stole the kids ✏️
Yep
GQ Rebel
Do you need a surfactant with this stuff?
You can for insurance... Don't have to
Looks like I'll be mowing before you this year lol. I don't think you'll be mowing by end of month either. Going to take a while to unfreeze the ground. Sadly, I hear plant growth regulators are getting banned in Europe for God only knows what reason.
The public can not be trusted. Gov rules it all.
“Label is the law” who is this imposter. He’s not my Rebel!
I bet a B&G sprayer sprays a fine mist...I wonder....Make a planter out of it at least I would get a laugh!
HA... I wonder.
It was not a coincidence that you broke out the fancy spectacles to do some math homework. walk it like you talk it.
Could you please redo your calculations using common core. The ones you did made no sense.
@@grassmastersllc2558 He was being sarcastic.
This would definitely make more sense for the millennial generation for sure.
6:33 that is for the bare minimum 🤷♂️
Gosh, I really hope that you don't decide to become an egg head about this stuff, like THE LCN, 2019.
*_"THE LCN; EXPLAINING THINGS THAT YOU DO UNDERSTAND, IN A WAY THAT YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND!"_* 👍
Most of us are simple folks out here who have little inclination to sit in our garage, suffering a maths class, working 7 different calculations to come up with "1 gallon of water per 1000 sq ft."
Please keep it as simple as possible for us Job Corps. rejects that just want a nice looking lawn, but have no desire to obsess over it.
This is true but not all sprayers put out 1 gallon per 1000 sq ft. The most important thing is that you need to just put the right amount of product down in a given area no matter how much water you are using.
@@lawnrebel Thanks. 👍

A reel rebel wouldnt follow the rulz. :)
Its T-Next week
It is best to apply a growth regulator after you have mowed the lawn a few times first in a new growing season. Most manufacturers recommend waiting until after your third regularly scheduled mowing of the season before applying a growth regulator. This ensures that the plant is growing normally and will metabolize and incorporate the active ingredient from the product(s) more consistently.
Great answer. I am not able to address all these types of questions in the vids. It would make the vids way too long.
I don't spray anything on my lawn, can't be stuffed. It's alive and healthy.
Whooooo
Rebels don’t read labels
Dirty first
As dirty as they come
@@lawnrebel thank you?!
Lush Lawns you butter get better with those firsts.
