  • Continuing the backyard golf green build and getting the area ready for some seed. Seed preparation is one of the most important steps in this whole build. If we don't do this right, I could be dealing with weeds and lots of other problems.

    I wish I saw this video in spring. I prepped my front lawn and just put some couch seed straight down. I've literally got half a green bin full of crab grass and crows foot that I've hand pulled over the week. Germinating as much of the weed seed first is definitely a good lawn tip. Live and learn.

    That's some project to do more or less on your own. I have been filming a golf green getting made at Clandeboye GC this Autumn and winter. I hope to finish the filming this week. It's been really interesting to watch your video as I work on my own one. What you have done here is amazing.

      Not at all. Luckily it’s only the first few hours in the morning. I was filming around 7-10 most mornings in the vid when the shadows are there.
      The trees will get a little trim though to help a bit on the other side of the fence

    Hi Ben. I noticed that plan has a bunker around the green. Are you still planning to put this in? If so, wouldn’t it be ideal to do this before seeding the rye?

    Just be aware Reece are extremely over priced, I don’t know your set up, quantities or endorsements but they are around 3-6 times more expensive then almost every other irrigation mob. Being a plumber myself I hardly ever go to Reece because they are such a rip off.
    But on topic I can’t wait to see how this goes as I’m doing the same to my own. Know of anyways to get rid of kik out of a lawn permanently?
