Man, all I have to say is WOW! I’m impressed! I reside in central FL and when I thought I had my answers to my St. Augustine grass fiasco, my head is spinning! :-( Your lawn looks amazing and my lawn did at one time. Where do i start…..I’ll make this quick. 1. My grass was bad! Brown all over, tons of dead spots and areas where no grass. 2. I wanted a green lawn, FAST! 3. I bought St. Augustine sod pods and put them in the areas that needed it. 3. I put down top soil and put down Bermuda grass (it grows faster than St. Augustine) but comes with weeds etc. 4. My lawn was luscious all summer long and very vibrant. 5. Saw some weeds and moths so I put down weed and feed and insecticide for the moths 6. Those areas that “were green” were full of weeds and died off! 7. For the last month I’ve been putting down Bermuda grass - “I know wrong choice” - I need patience! 8. I went out and purchased a de-thatcher machine and it’s pulling up the dead grass indeed BUT also the good St. Augustine grass!!! 9. My home has beautiful trees but you know what comes with that beauty….leaves! If they aren’t raked or removed, that’s where the lawn doesn’t get any water or fertilizer……10. I have the perfect storm now and I need to fix it! 11. I’m looking into having the dead areas replaced. :-( with new St. Augustine sod. I’ve tried over seeding (with Bermuda seeds since there aren’t St. Augustine seeds. Just sod pods or sheets of St. Augustine sod. 12. I wanted to de-thatch my lawn since it’s a lot of dead grass even between the great green St. Augustine grass. So, I’m at a cross-road…..Do I work with the St. Augustine grass or deal with Bermuda grass? My initial thoughts a year ago was that the St. Augustine grass would choke out the Bermuda grass and take over! That would be fantastic but it hasn’t yet…..thoughts????

Lawns here in San Antonio are all confused. Started to grow, hit with the freeze, soil temps rose again, then we had the cold front that dipped soil temps back to low 60's. I just took this time to dethatch, scarify, and micro and macro nutrients. Hopefully it come's back later april early may when we get some rain and temps shoot up.

Thank you! We have at Augustine for sure! We had gotten sow grass from home Depot, but I think it is Bermuda... So, so far i know we need to work on both sides! I like that you are here in Texas, most you tubers are from Florida, the ones I was coming across.

I really would love to hear your information . However the background music you incorporated is drowning out your information.

Wow! Great information. Thanks again, David. God bless. 🙏🏽

Great video and great content! Nice job on the side lawn! Keep it up bro.

Que onda Mr Lush! That St. Aug is fire! Been following you from KOTG. Keep up the great vids coming! Saludos from the Chicagoland area.

Your neighbors R lucky you take pride in your lawn.

I thought I was brave taking my StAug down to 2.25" for spring cleanup. Next year I'll go even lower. Nice job!

I noticed all of the dead palm trees in your neighbor's yards. I have 5 dead palm trees as well as 4 dead orange trees in my yard here in Houston. The tree service companies are charging an additional $50 for disposal of dead palms. Apparently, the local garbage dump (land fill) has been over run with dead palms, they had to start charging $50 a tree.

Needed this, right now! Thanks! Great info!

Going to try this out (in Htx). Have compacted soil prior due to Harvey flooding also. Q ...how much dried molasses do you use and where did you get yours? What is the purpose of that? Would love to know. My biggest issue has always been just that the ground is so hard to walk on. I would like it to feel soft and lush. Great tips. Thanks for the help!

Thanks bro I’m in Texas and accidentally scalped my lawn without knowing😂 going to try out your steps

Thank you so much

Results are impressive. Good work!

Nice backing track, Dave. I gave up on my front lawn, too damn hot out there anyway and pulled the Fender Strat off the rack, popped open an Oktoberfest… I ripped out my sidewalk strip by hand this AM -sprinkler station cycle failure killed it off after a chinch bug hit set it on the road to Hell along with a bit too much Triazicide applied…. I am toying with the notion of a switch to Bermuda in that strip instead, might dethatch the whole front yard first then see how I feel about it’s chances for the same switchover if the stolon damage is too great. Less expensive water bills if I do that, too!!! Bermuda is not as thirsty as StA, same dormancy in winter, easier to dethatch once per year, too.

3:06 thanks for this tip man, blessings

I love that 5th step!

Nice job. Where did you buy the humic fulvic kelp? What brands do you recommend ? How many times should we apply to the grass?

Mine looks good in the spring when its not raining every day and I can control the water with irrigation. But, when the summer gets here and it’s wet 24/7 it’s fungus and more fungus! Even without nitrogen it’s a problem.

You have some beautiful crab grass mixed in there..

Well done bro. 😎👍

Awesome work!

Huge thanks!!!

AWESOME VIDEO!

Looking good!

Great video. Appreciate the tips. Happy to see another RGV peep doing his thing. Might have to reach out to you soon to help with my lawn! Im trying but it isnt working lol

Good morning bro 😎✌️💪

That was amazing bro! Can I do this to a trouble spot in my St Augustine in Northeast Florida? It's end of May here and daytime temps are currently in mid 80s. Thanks again! Also where do you get the mollases from?

Nice...I live in florida and my sprinklers in the front of the house have not been working for a few months. I have dried st. augustine, wondering if this process will bring it back?

excellent my brother!

Where do you buy the humic fulvic kelp? Also, the dried molasses, and how much do you mix into solution?

I see a whole bunch of people asking where to get the supplies you used but no response that I can see. Can you share where to get it?

What is the best way to get a bare or really sparse corner in my yard to fill in? The rest of the yard is in pretty good shape. Should I try to plug this small area that is about 5 x 8?

My grass is brown from the heat here in south Texas. How can I save it?

Very informative.

Sweet Crocs, bro

Thank you for your help/ video.!! Do you need a lot water? In drought in California. Suppose to water 1 day a week. 🤦‍♀️ To say the least my grass is dry basically dying.

That background music brother

Awesome. 😃😃😃

Your “scalping” is my neighbors mowing height they love to have some burnt st Augustine

need to do the same at my house

what exactly are you putting into that kelp humic fulvic? i can't find the ingredients or any similar products in local stores. would love to do exactly what you did!

Thanks bro!

I have tried this and have a few patches that will not recover. Most of the other grass is lush, I have raked and applied the mix but grass is just not growing. It's been months! I might just have to resod. It's a few small patches, 3'x4' is the biggest bare/dead patch.

Much needed video! Thank you

I just saw another video that said not to rake. What to do?

How often do you water your lawn? I'm struggling with this part

Mr. Lush Lawn is there a way you can diagnose a problem through video?

Thank you sm!!

What liquid fertilizer did you use? And where can I purchase some ?

Great Video if anyone from the San Antoni area knows where I can get these Biostimulants I would appreciate it.

Hank Hill would be Proud. 👍

How often did you water it?

Where can I get the bio-stimulant?

Layer down some st auguastine sod looked great for almost 5 months but it rained really hard for a few days ( Dallas) now it stopped growing???

Where is the best place to buy “step 4” liquid?

Awesome lawn! I live in south Texas, where can I get the kelp mixture?

Can you provide a link to the fertilizer?

So, does step 4 happen one week after step3?

Suppose I have centipede mixed with st Augustine grass … suppose I want only St Augustine grass. Is there a strategy whereby the St Augustine will dominate with some lawn care plan ?

What's in that fertilizer again?

Can you give us ratio on humic/fulvic/kelp ?

What’s the recipe for conditioner?

Do you have a recommendation for St Augustine with take-all - patch?

I will try this with my st augustine in front and back. Most was damaged from the hard freezes in dallas a couple of months back. Hope it’s not too late to save it. Where donyou get conditioners?

Hi we’re I can get the fertilizer for the lawn and ratio on the mix? Thanks

I know you talk about a humic, folic, kelp combo but where do you get these products/what are the brands

Cool calm collective

Where do I get this mix.

Thanks for the video. Will blackstrap molasses work? Or is there a specific kind?

What do l do when bermuda gress is taking over it killing my st. Agustine grass what do l do.

Hey thanks for the vid. My yard never fully recovered from the freeze. There’s patches of dead grass in my yard still. Do I need to pull up all of the dead areas and place new soil?

I have st augustine...it's now October and I wanna get weeds killed that are moving from neighbors house and also get grass ready for winter...what should I do? I'm also in Texas

It's my first year with St Augustine in Houston and it's still "waking up." I've mowed and bagged twice but still have some yellow crispy tips, the lower part of the blades are green. Is this normal? I'm mowing at 2.5-3 inches right now.

Yo! Very clear and concise vid, in contrast to a lot of other grass vids out there where people are more interested in showing off their knowledge rather that helping people, ha. I’m actually in st Augustine FL, a new home owner here. I think I killed my st aug grass but mowing al last year and not bagging. Now there is a thick layer of thick dead brown blades preventing anything from growing on my lawn. It looks pale, brown and dying. It isn’t very long so I’m afraid to cut it shorter. Any suggestions for a starting point? Aerate? Thanks for your work/approach!

I hope you see this... where do you get your soil conditioners? I am struggling finding stuff

All I’ve known is Bermuda. My new house has St Aug. Is high nitrogen fertilizer ok or is it like Centipede that it prefers low doses of nitrogen?

How far apart was the transformation?

Saludos from Laredo! Do you have an irrigation system? How often do you water? And for how long?

Mr Lush, can I use a PGR on St. augustine grass?

I have St Augustine Grass in North Florida, I suppose same technique can apply for our soil here as well, which is sandy? Thanks for the content!

What is that Manuel air rater you was using

Can i mix the humic fulvic kelp with insecticide??

I live in Texas as well and my grass is brown with spots of green. Are you watering the grass during the process?

Where can i get all thos liquid product you got .please my lawn needs help

Do they sell provista st AUGUSTINE IN Texas or did you get the grass from Florida. Please tell me I’m interested in getting this grass

We got a nasty fungus , I self treated with baking soda , veg oil & dish soap & water ,now it’s not growing at all !!

Question what type of St. Augustine grass do you have?

Mr Lush, do you recommend using the DIY manual core aerator for spot treatments - example anytime I notice my St Augustine grass is not performing well in certain spots due to compacted soil? Will that stress the grass or it can only benefit? Also does it need to be done before fertilization? Thanks

In Ssn Antonio, I need tips!

Any more details on the humic/fulvic/kelp solution? Where can it be found?

So you didn’t need to re-seed the area?

How can I get my St Augustine to take over the Bermuda in my lawn.

Where can i get all those bio stimulants? Please

It would’ve been nice if you put the actual recipe for your mixture in the notes.

overwatered our grass sod and now it looks dead thanks to the contractor instruction on maintenance. Does this work for that?

You sound like you’re from south Texas 🤔

Impressive. What do you think about using compost on St Augustine

Crab grass in my empty spots. Help 2😪
