Hi, wonderful videos! May I request a video of “do’s & dont’s treatments and time of year they should or should not be applied.” Also if you can mix certain treatments in the same watering can or sprayer i.e. seaweed and iron sulphate or iron sulphate on top of a slow release fertiliser or grass seed. I’ve also seen some KZfaqrs adding washing up liquid but they just say add a little? Little means different things to different people, would you recommend the use of washing up liquid? 🙂🌸🌺🌻🌞

@Premier_lawns_official Жыл бұрын

There are a few questions there Products like seaweed and iron can usually be mixed together, although the water rates may be different so maybe not always the best idea Always do a jam jar test, mix some up and see how it reacts. Also check the manufacturers guidelines. I could never say for certain you can 100 percent mix A with B Like for example mixing weed control with anything else. That's usually a no go but again depends on the products. How long is a ball of string Washing up liquid can be used as a wetting agent, it does the same thing as a wetting agent, it breaks up the surface tension of the soil But it's a detergent and has a negative impact on the soil so no strictly speaking shouldnt really be used

@TheLawnSensei 4 жыл бұрын

Robbie, a new subscriber to your channel and picking up some very useful tips, thank you. My question to you is this. If I scarify and then apply moss treatment will I be able to then seed the grass. My lawn has never been done by the looks of it and we have just moved to this house. It is likely that there will be patches that I will need to reseed as there are big areas of moss. In this video you mention not to treat the moss if seeding as well. What would your advice be in this situation?

@Bicyclechris 4 жыл бұрын

I saw your earlier videos, and was really inspired to take action against the moss in my backyard lawn. Our climate in Washington State, USA is very similar to Ireland; very damp. I had so much moss that I deeply scarified the lawn, and even though I removed more than O could imagine, I will have to scarify again to get the rest of the moss out because it was originally so thick. My question, which is the topic for another video, what needs to be done when reseeding the lawn after scarifying and aerating? Do I apply Iron or any other moss control products?

@Premier_lawns_official 4 жыл бұрын

The iron dehydrates seed son can't be done at the same time. If I'm seeding it goes on first

Hi Chris Another better way if you have the time and energy is to take a longer approach. Get a good hit on the moss now and get it under control and then scarifier in the fall and overseed then. This video might help you kzfaq.info/get/bejne/bbmPftB-urrOgHk.html

Great videos. Just purchased a house and the grass is battered. I’ve invested in a scarifier too. Here’s my questions I have bad moss in shady areas from tall laurel. What order do I do things? Scarify now (March) then apply moss killer. Then September overseed and top dressing? Or maybe another scarify before? Thanks!

Leestar if it was me I would focus on weed control now (don't scarify now) and then September time do the lawn renovation

@leestar7156 4 жыл бұрын

Premier Lawns... Thanks for letting me pick your brain. So I’ve applied some killer to weeds, can I apply some iron now before lawn renovation in September?

I moved into a new house which the builder installed turf. The turf has a plastic green mesh in it , will I do any damage to the tuff if I scarify, cause obviously it’s going to rip up the mesh.

@Premier_lawns_official 3 жыл бұрын

The plastic mesh lets the turf growers lift the turf sooner, if its a new lawn dont be scarfying it

Hi Robbie, I've just scarified my lawn today. I actually seen your video after the fact so I've ordered the iron you recommended. I'm away on Wednesday for 2 weeks so probably won't get the lawn sprayed until im back from work, will that be ok or too late?

My grass is full of moss, I need to get this done on mine, can you buy that spray stuff over the counter? Also Idea for a video, go over strimmers and recommend me a reliable petrol strimmer that is easy to load the line and dispense the line when hitting it on the ground. Cheers mate.

Liquid Iron yields almost instant results, the moss turns black in hours. I've tried using Moss-Ex granular but had terrible results. I've got a big lawn so I mix up 5 lbs of powdered Ferrous Sulfate (Iron) with about 25 gallons of water. It also turns the grass green within hours. The only downside is the iron lowers the PH of the soil which can cause the moss to return, so it works best throw down some lime too. Liquid aeration also helps the cause.

Dawn dish soap will also kill moss because the PH is so high. I wonder if it could be used as a type of surfactant with the iron spray that would it stick and also help neutralize the PH drop?

Loving these videos, learning about how to look after a lawn. I moved into a new property in the summer here in Scotland. The lawn is a mess. It is full of dog lichen and moss. Research tells me this is because of the poor state of the lawn. I initially aerated the lawn a couple of weeks back, then used Evergreen 4 in 1 to start removing the moss. A week later the moss was blackening and I scarified using a spring-tine rake. It was hard work and needed about 6 passes but I took out 4 full sacks of moss and thatch (it's only approx. 60msquared!). I then mowed to pick up the remains of the moss and tidy it up. It is pretty patchy now, but 99% of the lichen and moss is gone with the raking, and you can see the grass is there. Given it's now October and getting cold outside, is there anything further I can do now or should I leave this until spring now before another scarify and feed?

I have bought a scarifier/aerator and this weekend will mow high, scarify, aerate and then over seed and top dress. I was going to just patch seed the areas that the lichen has damaged but it is vast so will just over seed the entire lawn and top dress. Thanks again for the advice and keep the videos coming, I do enjoy watching them. Guessing it is a very busy time for you at the moment also so lots of content to come I am sure.

Hi Robbie, what is the mix ratio of the iron Pro-Kleen that you use in 10 litres, I keep seeing conflicting info, one guy I saw says he uses a 1 full 1 litre jug in 20 litres of water and others say 5 grams per 1 litre as you can see that’s big difference 🤷

@Premier_lawns_official 4 ай бұрын

To get on the full 5g per m2 you will need a lot of water otherwise your nozzles will block
