Hi! any updates on humichar application?
Your front yard looks like a picture from a magazine . Absolutely perfect. Amazing how good lawns can look when all one blend. IMO you and Ryan have the best looking rye grass lawns. Stunning to say the least. I hope to be there someday and that's a big HOPE. 😃
Thanks man! I am loving the rye! And being compared to ryan is a great compliment!
SuperTA329,
What about Doc!!
In my opinion Bermuda lawns look the best. I’ve tried humachar, PGF complete and super juice. Super juice and hemachar are expensive PGF complete delivers the best results for the money.
Brets yard does look good.
@@vh8765 Without question Doc has the nicest Bermuda lawn. In comment above I was referring to rye grass lawns. I have cool season KBG lawn but if I had to pick a warm season grass it definitely would be Bermuda.
Bret what were the results in the soil?
Great video, I've been working at this product. So, how did it go, is there a follow up video? Can't find it.
No updates yet on the humichar application? I’m curious to see how this stuff turned out for you! I’m going to be trying this for myself soon.
Did he make an update? Can’t find it..
@@Hartney1 not that I’ve seen. But I have a bag of it myself now to test out this spring!
I can't find the update - but I'm watching this 3 years later so I guess it completely killed the lawn and he moved on!
Doc had a really good video on what humichar can do to benifit your soil over a course of time. He did mention don't expect to see an appearance difference in the turf however the 2nd year or so your soil will improve and allow the turf require less dosages of fertilizer. Let's see over the next couple years. Did you see or recall that video? I must say he does keep it simple and has yielded beautiful results relatively quick. His little putting green grew in crazy fast. Although not the right grass type for a putting green its looking awesome. Cant wait to see Ben's this year.
So what video is the update video? Don’t see one titled to it?
I just put down a 45 pound bag on about 11,000 square feet of our front yard. I’m hoping to see results in 30 days before we have daily freezes in late Nov.
How were your results??? Thank you
You are answering a question I’m sure we ALL have. Look forward to the results
Haha I'm doing this test so you don't have to!
did you do a results video.
I live in Texas and my soil is hard and compressed will this help loosen the soil up even after sod installation?
I live in Texas and my soil is hard and compressed will this help loosen the soil up even after sod installation l?
Did the biochar work? Were is the follow up?
I hope you do a follow up to this one year later and two years later. I'll be at my first year in June of using it on sandy soil.
Not trying to diss the other creators, but you have the best looking lawn in video
Any update video on the soil now that it has been a month?
been using it as well, im hoping by next year i see some soil changes. Terrible clay soil here in Texas.
Did it improve your clay soil??
Damnnnnnn bro, you got good soil! Out here in Western KS, I struggle to get patches like that when I’m repairing irrigation systems! Love it!
So this will be like a 3+ year video series? Because that's how long to get results
There is no way you're going to see results in 60-90 days. Maybe if you put the entire bag down
Where's the follow up video? I did an app but Anderson says it takes multiple apps. I dunno if I want to splurge on another bag
it's a scam....
Result video???
🌞 I've got a bag, pricey! Curious to see your soil results in 90 days. My clay needs all the help it can get! 😂 Put down 10 lbs for 5 months straight, might see some good results.
Yeah I've got 2 bags so I'm thinking about 8 applications over the next 3 or 4 months and it could seriously change the soil composition.
Looking forward to update video
@@Brettsgrasscapades I have really bad clay here in Charlotte, and so far have been putting down 40 pounds per month on 4,000 ft² during the growing season. We shall see.
Dats sum DAF stripey action there. What’s your turf type? PRG?
Yessir. 100% barenbrug RPR perennial rye grass.
Brett's Grasscapades yeah man. That’s dope. I think I remember you seeding it on an earlier episode. You definitely deserved the FB banner win. When I grow up........
5:39 - queso
Now I'm hungry.
Brett's Grasscapades
For anything in particular?
Cool topic look for are to seeing if there is any noticeable results below or above.
I have no clue if it will do anything but I'm willing to see!
What type of sprinkler heads are those. I like the equal distribution it puts out
They are the rainbird 5000 heads.
Looking forward to the results 🤙🏾🌱
Thanks man. I am very interested to see if it does much to my soil.
Brett's Grasscapades are you going to make a results video?
Disappointed no results video
What soil amendments are you using on your 100% barenburg grass. Would like to see a 30 - 90 day comparison on your x brand?
How did the pool spot Reno go last year? Never did see the results.
That lawn looks so perfect, it looks fake. Amazing!
I know it will take a few months but really curious to see if their is a noticeable change in your soil , Good video! 👍🏼
I'm the same way. No clue if there will be but I guess we will find out!
Brett's Grasscapades I think products like that take time and consistency of use but I’ve heard good things!
What is the difference between humic dg and humichar
I want to know also
Best time to apply???
What kind of sprinklers do you have?
Can’t wait to see the results Brett. You have my attention, lol. But how do you keep that Rye going in the heat? I just posted my Potash video for summer stress. I’m curious what you do for the Rye. Really looking forward to the results of the Humichar.
I just watch it and water as needed. Hot days I didn't a quick cool down cycle for 5 mins or so. I've been spoon feeding it every other week with propeat and I'm loving it.
Your lawn is looking awesome! You work hard at it I'm sure.
Thank you ma'am!
I watch doc and I watch Brett. I love them both and we can all learn something from everyone!
Nice job! Sounds of sprinklers are very soothing! 🤙🏼
It really is so soothing many a hour has been spent on the porch watching the sprinklers at my house.
Wish i had a andersons spreader. Just dont see why they want $500 for it. Pushing 3 acres with a scotts sucks. Dont roll very good with heavys loads. Looking forward to your results. Ive but 4 bags out on my lawn and haven’t seen much results. From what i have researched on it. It takes a few years of constant apps of it to properly work its way down to the proper zone in soil were its needs to be. Now i see why farmers till theres in to the dirt.
You should try the $200 Chapin tow behind spreader with auto shut off
Good stuff. I'll be interested in see the results you get.
Thank you! I'm very curious as well to see what it does.
When does the update video come out?
Take a year or 2 for your soil to improve
What’s up Brett, good to see you in shoes
I hated every minute of it!
Yard looks great man wow!! Curious to see the results...great video
Me too very curious to see what this stuff does.
Biochar is awesome stuff from what I have seen. It's a great soil ammendment. Lots of videos on TH-cam on how to make it, but infusing it with humic acid sounds like it will work good. I haven't used it yet, though. Thanks for showing this in your lawn! I don't know about it working it's way into the soil in 90 days that quickly, though. It takes time to work its way into the soil from videos I have seen.
I don't know how well it will work either but that's why I'm trying it! Thanks for watching!
Your lawn is top notch! I might have to try out HumiChar. Where can we get it locally here in Davis/Weber?
Thank you sir! Unfortunately it's not available anywhere locally that I know of only sold online.
@@Brettsgrasscapades Dang. Thanks for the reply!
Buying these bags online is very expensive. Please go to local turf stores they sell these 50 lb bags for $15. They call it soil conditioners not humic acid but ingredients are same. Most of the lawn care channels get this stuff for free and they promote them but we don’t have to spend that kind of money to get the same results. HTH
You’re absolutely right, they’re very expensive, thank you for the tip.
At $84 a bag, I will stick to humic dg. That is unreasonable especially if you have a larger yard applying at 4lbs per 1000sqft.
The company doesn't price their product based on your yard size. If it's too expensive because your yard is too big then move somewhere that the yard is smaller.
@@GRJCLyon I'm not moving but I will buy another product that does the same thing for cheaper like essential G or carbon pro g. I should move yeah right🤣🤔🤣🤔
Those roots 💣💥
For real right!
No follow up video
what was you soil result???
How's the project going that you started 9 weeks ago? Curious to see the real live results so far good or bad?
Any updates if this works?
So. Whats your view now?
Doc says we won't see the benefits of this products for years. He says to put this down for 10 years from now. We will need less fertlizer down the road as it will hold the fertilizer in better.
Hope to make it 10 more years
Does this stuff cause rust spots on sidewalks and driveways?
No it will not stain
I thought for sure Linda would be included in the bag. Karate chop!
Sadly no Linda or barb.
Love your vids brother 👍💪
Your the best.
Aw thanks joe! Now hurry up and heal up and get up here!
Yeah.... Your soil already looks great.
Where's the soil test followup video?
Subbed, any results yet? Layed down my first app today.
A comparison with rgs would be a good fit
Any thoughts on that liquid biochar?
Never used any before but I'd imagine it would work well!
any updates???
Why no booney hat? 🤔
No booney hat today.
@@Brettsgrasscapades you suck..🤣. It would be a whole level of interesting if you did....
The cheaper and IMO the better option would be SiteOne's version of this. Lesco CarbonPro-G by Mirimichi Green. It actually has Bio-char and Humic Acid as well as more beneficial ingredients in it. Biggest benefit is the cost, 40lb bag is only about $28 bucks. I purchased 3 bags for the price of this one bag from Andersons. Love ya Doc but I love my money more.
Unfortunately for me I don't have a site one close by and I'm sure that is the same for lots of folks. Its always going to be cheaper buying heavy granular products locally as they don't need to be shipped. Thanks for watching and for the great comments!
Guess I didn't see it that way. But Thanks for the content your doing awsome man love the vids!
Brett I just started using this product also this month. I will keep u posted about results. Also I loved your video on reel mowers and have a possible used option in my area. Do you have any knowledge about a John Deere 20 SR7 you could shed light on. Thanks
HOLY SH!! DEM ROOTS THOUGH!!!.
Thanks man!
Oooookay what were the results???
I dont think humic acid and biochar would give you instant results like fertilizer will.
Get the lesco carbonpro g. It's only $25 for 40lbs
Update on this please?!
Until these products come down signifcantly in price I won't be using them, and i'm a "lawncare nut". I have the best yard in the neighborhood simply by cutting the grass 3 times a week at the correct height setting, watering, using cheap nitrogen/iron, and spot spraying weeds. I also put 4 insect/grub treatments down a year, which I buy from Lowes/HD when they are on sale. I'm sure these Andersons products are great, as well as the N-EXT line, but they are very expensive. The N-EXT line is actually cheaper than this when you break down the per app cost.
I need me one of those concrete walls. Pesky neighbor 😜
And the backyard looks pretty good already - this should take it to the next level 👍
Haha those pesky neighbors!
Putting down one bag and expecting ‘results’? What is it you expect to see? It’s not a fertilizer, has no iron in it, so won’t see a green up. Andersen’s will tell you it’ll take several bags a year to see even a top layer to turn from red clay to brown
Give James his shovel back!!!!
Looking good man! Grass looks ok too.
jesus christ dude, that is the best lawn i have ever seen lol
Where is the super juice lol
In the garage.
Them roots tho 😳
Right???
Nice spreader but not $700.00 bucks nice. After all the research I concluded humichar is the best option imo.
That lawn looks sick. Don't care if it works. Nice job bro!!!
Doc puts this stuff down by the ton. I don't believe one or two bags will do anything. Multiple bags a season for several years before soil changes. There's no way a few lbs per thousand sq feet can amend the tons and tons of soil that compose a lawn. Would love to see the follow-up, although your soil and roots looked so good already not sure it needed it.
I love these channels that try to explain and test what others have spend years testing and already making videos about. Doc has done this over and over with more than enough elaborate explanations and never has to read from his phone. He just knows his stuff. I love it even more when someone says they don't see results like Doc did when they didn't use it or give it the time that Doc did. Trying to get likes from someone else's work is sad. Yes, your lawn looks amazing but it's hard to give a proper review on a product that's supposed to improve things when it's already perfect. Put this stuff on a crap lawn not a lawn from homes and gardens first.
Just go to howtowithdoc on humichar. He worked with Anderson’s to make this product. Been doing his program for the last 1 1/2 years and my yard has transformed to the best yard in the neighborhood
This is the same stuff the How to with Steve guys uses.
Like your hat
Thanks man I just got it and love it!
Brett's Grasscapades link maybe? I think I’m seeing it right: the state of GA with American flag. Cool!
Yes that's correct! I got it from brandedbills.com they make custom hats with any state.
First Aussie 😁
Good evening my friend.
Might be useful to explain that HumiChar is technically not a soil amendment in itself as it has no nutritional contents. It’s purpose is to help retain moisture and nutrients in the soil rather than letting them filter through or run off. HumiChar can be applied at ANY rate you choose, as often as you like, and can potentially remain in the soil for decades.
Can your lawn actually get nicer. Especially that front lawn. It puts some golf courses to shame :)
No thanks ill save my money
Thumbs down. No followup
Sorry man I ended up moving 🤷♂️
Lawn looks good. Sick of seeing Anderson’s videos all over TH-cam. Just call it a sponsored video if they’re giving you free product. Doc is the worst..,
I agree about Doc.
please dont copy doc .a salesman/ greens keeper. he knows alot about grass he should been doin it a while. invest in application materials wisely not all are worth the price. before my knowledge of turf ,i did just fine. mow regular leave clippings/ water just enough/treat all at right time of year- south florida ---per year 10 -10 -10= 1 x =1lb n bifen insecticide 4x imidacloprid 2x
lesco 16-4-8 4x=3/4 lbn atrazine 1x done. my soil in time, is black loam next to pure sand
plants dont know the difference n is n to them.
Stop trying to be Doc
Don't tell me what to do. You're not the boss of me.
Brett's Grasscapades
No one wants to be doc ,if they have at least two brain cells on active duty.
Not sure why all the hate on Doc. His videos are awesome and helpful. I never once seen or heard him talk about about anyone directly nor bash another product that others are selling. All I can say is it is amazing how his yard looks now with the new fence, little putting green , garden and his overall Bermuda lawn looks absolutely beautiful. I enjoy everyone's content and learn as well.
@@SuperTA329 I agree man. No hate here. I don't consider this or pgf complete "docs products" as hes not the one formulating them. They are Anderson's products and I've had great success using them in the past. I want to see if there is a noticable difference in the soil or the lawn that's all I care about.
SuperTA329
Because he’s full of himself always telling the viewer you got to do it this way ,if you do it any other way then you’re an idiot , if he was an astro physicist he would say all the other theories are wrong & his way is right & he would be the man who solved it.
He’s not in it to help people like he used to be , he’s now just a product pusher to line his pockets ,oh & what’s the deal with having barely legal scantly dressed girls mowing his lawn with him videoing them (dirty little creep) oh yea you gotta subscribe because he’s got 20 videos coming,lol,.
He’s a narcissistic product pushing egotistical idiot.
Apart from that ,he’s a lovely bloke.
Wasted time. no follow up video on how it went with the humichar... I think he made this video to market the product.
Any updates?
