Yomate, Waddup. Just wanna say I love your videos. These patch up jobs are very helpful. Im in a rental property so don't want to spend alot of $$$ but still want a respectable lawn. Thanks for your advice , keep up the good work. Your bloody awesome
You inspired me to rip up about 20m2 of whatever crap was growing in my yard. I tilled it levelled it and put down some wintergreen couch turf. It looks amazing and I never thought I could do something like that by myself. Thanks a lot for the advice and the inspiration. My wife and kids love the New green space!
I'm so excited for this season. Ours is coming soon. I got myself a 1600 and 1000 and am so pumped to mow my KBG low this season. Love watching your vids mate!
Nice Vid mate 😎 It'll be interesting to see how that Hortico brand of soil goes for you. We've found it dries out much quicker than the more expensive brands (even from bunnings) and becomes very compacted much quicker than it should 😅 Nursery Premium Garden Soil bags aren't too bad for amount of wood chip inside etc and have found them to work the best for small fix ups 👍 Cheers mate 😀
Another very entertaining vid mate. Cheeers. I’ve got a problem though. My lawn looks good and healthy from afar, but underneath its going yellow and tufts pull out very easy. Ever since I top dressed a few months ago it seems to have deteriorated. Any advice. It’s kikuyu. Could it be too much water? Watering schedule is 15mm twice a week, early morning.
Hi Ben! Loving the content! Keep the vids coming champ! I have couch, in past vids I've seen you use sand as a topdressing agent. Is sand ideal for couch oversowing? Cheers
Have you looked at creeping rye? There is 2 here by pgg and barenbrug. I have rye in the back and doing a full reno in autumn. Not sure to go dark or creeping rye
I oversowed with sand with ryegrass about 2 months ago and watered 5 times a day. Its not grown and bare. I have irrigationb(mprotars) have i done something wrong? Should i have mixed sand with something else. My local has mushroom compost
No pre its been decent here in vic but like you it has cooled down. Is it recommended to grow grass in straight sand? Can seed maybe come through in autumn or is it kinda dead and need to throw more seed? Im not sure if grass seed can stay dormant in the ground and grow months later.
Sand doesn't hold water as well. I mix sand with organic mix. It is certainly challenging to get a good coverage when seeing rye. I runs mix with Kentucky Bluegrass to deepen the color
Hey mate love the videos, im in dubbo and have sir walter and have noticed there is big holes in it. wondering if you know what is causing them and how I could get rid of what ever insect/pests it is. I have photos of the holes im guessing spiders but not sure lawn is really struggling in that spot
Hey Ben awesome videos please keep it up!! Quick question that you’ve probably answered somewhere, but would you recommend ryegrass in Sydney or would our heatwaves be too much? Thanks again for the helpful info, love your work!!
Ben, have you thought about putting some paver stones in the area between the houses at the top of the green... where you keep your trash cans? Might help give the area a more finished look... like a patio for your trash bins 😂😂
Thanks for vids mate and also for the coolers, fert i just received. Q; How did u deal with the summer grass you were getting, i have a huge problem with these types of weeds and similar. Reason been i seeded my whole lawn (130m2) and the cheaper under soil i purchased must have came riddle with it :(. Cheers
You would put this video out, a day after I over seeded, looks like I went a bit heavy with my top dressing... Fingers crossed it all works out! Whoopsie!
Ben, I loved the vid man, You should sell your tiftuf runners for like 5-10 dollars and just put 5 or 6 runners in a sandwhich bag and then add some peat moss and dampen it and then sell it like that, cause I would defo buy one I love your lawn and supporting you
Dethatched lawn 2 weeks ago, lawn has bounced back quite nicely, aerating lawn this coming Friday, should I throw down some fert? If so, which fert would you recommend?
Yes. Depending on where you’re located, something like ammonium sulfate would be just fine, a 21-0-0. Thinking you’re in a warmer area if aerating this coming Friday. Only want to do that with active growth. If I were in a cooler area, calcium nitrate CaNO3 would be a better choice.
Bunnings sell the Scotts Top Dress + Lawn builder bags which is a metric you know what better than the Hortico stuff, none of the wood chip junk in it, looks pretty close to actual soil, same price.
I know what you mean about ryegrass bei g very hungry a d thirsty I'm struggling to keep up with it this summer. As soon we get a hot day here i get a lot of die off. What herbicide can i use to get rid of weeds coming through my lawn
loves your video mates! Can you please rate Brunnings Arena premium Lawn seeds (it seems its hard to get all the info about it - and if its selfrepair ) , and eventually suggest me a better product to use?
Can you do some videos of Kikuyu invasion? Our neighbor's is so aggressive im spraying and pulling them every few days what are some ways we can combat this? Reason i ask you mentioned summer grass but I'm battling Kik and its doing my head in.
Good vids mate, I need to get my butt into gear and fix my couch but two large dogs need all the room they can so hard to rope off areas to fix them ;-P
Mate this is awesome! I just bought my lawn back from the brink using your tips. It's a longshot, but I tagged Lawntips in my insta post. Hope you can check it out.
You really trust the weather app? most of the time around here in the midwest they can't predict the weather for the life of em. lol. example it will say rain 100% and then nothin happens, then when it says like no rain or 30-40% then it rains. I just look at the temp, thats the only thing they can even get close to right within a couple of degrees.
You can over fertilise for sure. During the growing season I wouldn’t fert anymore than every 8-10 weeks. Go by the recommended rate on the fertiliser bags as well. Some grass types take a little less or more, bit generally that’s the amount I stick to as a base.
@@LawnTips I was refreshing youtube waiting for it.. are you in that state in Australia that doesnt think daylight savings is real? I swear the videos are earlier

Glad,your back on, winter here in Missouri and I am starting to put together my spring lawn plan. Keep it up :)
You’re such an Inspiration to make my Bermuda lawn a beast this summer!
Today is -1 degree F in the Northeast US where I live. Can’t wait to be back in the yard with short sleeves and short ☀️

Lovely lawn. With that big backyard you should get a pool:)

This is awesome! I Gotta ask tho man, off topic, what kind of pants and shoes are those! I love the way they look haha.
hey mate been loving the vids! just wondering if you could do a video showing us all the equipment you have and what it does
Maybe you’ve got a video on this but do you also take care of the grass on both sides of your house despite the property line??
Great vid. May I ask how long before you mow the newly seeded areas?
How long after you top dress can you mow the lawn?
I oversowed with sand with ryegrass about 2 months ago and watered 5 times a day. Its not grown and bare. I have irrigationb(mprotars) have i done something wrong? Should i have mixed sand with something else. My local has mushroom compost
Hey mate,
Did you have pre-emergent down? Or how hot has it been?
No pre its been decent here in vic but like you it has cooled down. Is it recommended to grow grass in straight sand? Can seed maybe come through in autumn or is it kinda dead and need to throw more seed? Im not sure if grass seed can stay dormant in the ground and grow months later.
Does anyone know the answer to- this?
@@byrny111 you’ll need to put more sand down man. You can grow it in straight sand for sure, just requires more water.
Sand doesn't hold water as well. I mix sand with organic mix. It is certainly challenging to get a good coverage when seeing rye. I runs mix with Kentucky Bluegrass to deepen the color

Hey mate great video! Just wondering who deals with your shirt branding? Looks high quality.
Cheers
Thanks Heath!
I use a few different companies depending on what I get.
I got these from savage merch in Tassie though 👌🏽
What setting do you use on the Earthway for Noculate mate?
Ben, have you thought about putting some paver stones in the area between the houses at the top of the green... where you keep your trash cans? Might help give the area a more finished look... like a patio for your trash bins 😂😂
Haha I have actually. Just need to do it 😂
you are back !!!! it's summer and I want to see that green carpet, and the neighbor's how is it going ?
Needs a bit more rain!
Is it the right time of year to seed,, middle of summer
Watch the whole vid. I’m doing it because temps are in the mid 20’s for the next two weeks here.
@@LawnTips comment first, watch 2nd.. That is the way
😂
Great vid mate love these vids keep it up
Not knowing what your weather is like, but, looks like you got some dollar spot going on some fungicide applications will take care of it. 👍

Should be fine! No need to worry 👌🏽
what height of cut do you usually have the back lawn set at?

Haha, technically it’s not legal because TifTuf can’t be shared like that.
It’s a registered grass so...yeah.
Dethatched lawn 2 weeks ago, lawn has bounced back quite nicely, aerating lawn this coming Friday, should I throw down some fert? If so, which fert would you recommend?

Go for it man, honestly you can use whatever suits, but if you want something to get it to kick back, get a higher N fert 👍🏽
@@LawnTips fantastic, ill grab some from big green shed.
@@LawnTips i forgot globe is "around the corner" should I just wait until Monday and see them?
@@gaz781 you could man. I’d grab some 2spec accelerate if you do
Hi mate, can i use your special mix as in fertiliser instead of the granular fert in Kikuyu grass?
great stuff I have no idea how people can tumbs down this vid
Watching In 🌻🌪️ Kansas 🦗
Great vid mate.
Ben, why would you not put fertiliser on wet grass if you water it in right away anyway? Thanks
If you are very quick at watering it you’ll be fine. The prill just bursts and can burn because there isn’t enough water there to dilute the Nitrogen
Bunnings sell the Scotts Top Dress + Lawn builder bags which is a metric you know what better than the Hortico stuff, none of the wood chip junk in it, looks pretty close to actual soil, same price.
Couldn’t actually find that stuff in Orange
My ryegrass is in the same condition, nearly time for an overseed for me too, just gotta wait for all this heavy rain to pass
Once it does, not a bad idea to jump onto it!
I know what you mean about ryegrass bei g very hungry a d thirsty I'm struggling to keep up with it this summer. As soon we get a hot day here i get a lot of die off. What herbicide can i use to get rid of weeds coming through my lawn
Yo Ben. Cracking vid again. When are you looking a putting the bent grass seed out this year?
I’m still undecided on if I will or not to be honest!
at the time of watching 96.8k subs 511 views lol. wish my lawn didnt look like crap but it rain and i mow thats life
loves your video mates!
Can you please rate Brunnings Arena premium Lawn seeds (it seems its hard to get all the info about it - and if its selfrepair ) , and eventually suggest me a better product to use?
Great video as always mate. Given tif tuf doesnt seed, is there an overseed option for tif tuf or does it never need it?
Don’t really need it man. It should fill in itself 🤙🏼
I’m off to shovel my lawn. There is way too much snow to cut it
Oh man, that sucks!
Rockin the skinny jeans mate. Nice
Haha nah, these are fxd work pants
What do you use for your weather forecast, Ben?
I use the weatherzone app
Mint 👌🏻
😘
What do you do when you have to mow the lawn after seeding it? I find it a pain mowing around the seeded spots
I usually avoid those spots. Bit of a pain, but looks better in the long run!
My lawn desperately needs your green thumb!
Seems like a long time to get that little green right.
Thanks for the content. Long time watcher. What do you use to take plugs or runners from your own lawn or are you purchasing them?
Thanks man!
Yeah plus for my own lawn. I’ll then put sand in the areas I took out the plugs and they will fill in pretty quick.
Any idea when the shirts are gonna be back in stock?
Hopefully this week. I’ve ordered them, just waiting for the to turn up!
i wish it would rain in bunbury, its just been mid 20s and windy
Bummer man, we are getting rain all this week. Should be great
@@LawnTips it's been a weird summer
Can you do some videos of Kikuyu invasion? Our neighbor's is so aggressive im spraying and pulling them every few days what are some ways we can combat this?

I should for sure. I have some creeping into my yard. I’ll try and mention it soon!
Yo mate, love the vids! Q: Are you giving the tiftuf any thing other than the noculate to help it repair?
I’ll be using some urea soon 🤙🏼
Hey mate, love the vids... Are you from the northern ou southern part of Australia?
Love from Portugal ❤️
Good vids mate, I need to get my butt into gear and fix my couch but two large dogs need all the room they can so hard to rope off areas to fix them ;-P
Would be quite hard with dogs! Thanks for watching mate 👌🏽

My grass is yellow but why

Without ‘obviously’ going overboard ... Can you fertilise too much? How do you know how much is right? Lawn noob here 🤡
You can over fertilise for sure. During the growing season I wouldn’t fert anymore than every 8-10 weeks.
