Nothing like a good ole HJ

"Give it the ol' good hand job" 😂 Love the super technical term there haha. Great video though, learned and will be following your steps next week!

Good video, thanks. Straight to the point, no waffle. That's the secret to good videoing & thanks for the tips too. I obviously wasn't watering it enough. I will try 3 times a day now, for 14 days.

Great video, thank you for not making people over think it, on day 5 and im hopeful my patchy lawn will start to look much more green and presentable within the coming weeks! Cheers

Thanks for the encouragement. Just came in from doing such work outside. Our "Weasel" is 25 years old and actually has a wood handle. I had to dampen the ground to get some action under our Linden Tree. Using "Dense Shade" Grass seed for this shaded area. As I worked, several birds began singing above me so I knew they were waiting to have a meal of grass seed. They taunted me!! We have the same style and size Gray Diamond Block Wall--about same height. I built it in 1992 and last year had to reset half of it as it moved slightly over 30 years and seams opened up!! It was worth the work. It does go dark if in shaded areas and I have power washed the block faces once in a great while, over time. Great stuff after all these years. I think the main blocks weigh +60 pounds. Very versatile and this large stuff is the best I presume.

I’ve got a few bare spots and need to do this soon before the summer heat kicks in. This is a solid method that I’ve used many times and have gotten consistent results every single time! Great video!!

Best vid on seeding that I've found on here, and I spent an hour looking. One kook was even laying on the dirt with a Go-Pro yelping about soil quality. Thanks much and giving this a try today.

Thank you for the video. I have decided to take on the beautification of our lawn this year and have found my go-to resource. Love the "bullet point approach... personable and to the point. Will be back!

Thanks for the lesson. I’m trying this and look forward to the results!

I'm an absolute beginner when it comes to growing a lawn from seed so I've actually followed the steps here on a few bald spots on my lawn and I'm in about 8 days now and gotta say I'm pretty excited to see the grass shoots sprouting up. I've tried this two times previously before actually finding this video and this is the first time I've gotten any results at all. I'm very happy and hoping the lawn comes in full on the patch I experimented on. That cultivator is absolutely key.. The growth still looks uneven which has me a little worried but at least I'm seeing results.. Thanks so much for the video and tips.. Subscribed...

Excellent. One point you missed - the surrounding turf will need cutting in the interim. Aim the discharge of the mower AWAY from the seed bed. The seed bed must be totally undisturbed until full germination has occurred, which with your technique should render about 90% germination. Well done!

Hi, England here. This was a straight forward easy to follow video. I liked the presentation very much. Great job. 👍👽

It all seems so obvious after its explained. Great video!

Excellent video! No screaming, shouting or any overblown hype. It’s just the facts! Thank you

Great advice. I noticed the main thing is if the soil isn't loose you're screwed. Peat moss is a great idea. And yep, keep the water going but I noticed if we are going to have a weeks worth of rain then I hurry and put seed down since the rain water makes it sprout so much faster than crappy city chlorine water.

great video and guidance. Got my soil cultivator today at Lowes. Thanks again!

Probably the first time I’m early to a lawn vid lol. All the ones I’ve seen came out a while ago. Great vid btw!

I never knew i needed 'the lawn whisperer*' 😂 in my life (stupid plough king) then i started taking care of a driving range here in Dublin. Great stuff, subscribed 🤙 im

I am going with the Scott’s grass seed that has everything in it. Thanks for letting me know that the seed needs to be under the soil.😊😊😊

Ol hand job in the morning lol !! Keep them coming. Have a great week bro and be safe out there!

The Garden Weasel! Yes! Trusted seeding tool for years.

You have done exactly the correct thing there. 👍 from Wales U.K. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Thanks L Dub, nicely said and just what I needed!!! Keep em comin 👍🏼

This is how I've been reseeding for years. I do mix some planting soil in with the peat moss also.

This is EXACTLY what I needed to know! I don't have very much peat moss handy but will improvise somehow!

All good steps. Only thing I would add, is I like to walk it down before watering. Compressing it down a bit seems to improve contact between seed & soil.

Thanks. I have many small to large spots where grass is just not growing and due to the Clay here in SW Va. it is hard to get grass to grow. Going to spend the money on the tool and as for the other things. It will be easy to do for me. Thanks again.

That's awesome work. It shows you care about what you do, too awesome.

Having the same problem coming into spring. Probably from the dogs recycling program through the winter. I thatched the dead grass,put down some new soil and used the Scott's patch repair with the starter fertilizer with crab grass prevention. I also have been putting some rgs in the dogs water so she is actually helping with the yard. Ok just joking about the last part.

So well explained! Thank you!

Another quick and great one!! 💪🏻💪🏻

Great video! Very easy to follow steps.

Water is key. Great info Justin.

Love givin it the good ole ✋️ job, works 60% of the time, every time.

This was an excellent video. Thanks for the help.

Solid video! Thanks for the walkthrough

Never thought about using the yard weasel!! Great tip, Thanks.

Did the old hj method and it worked! Thank you

Thanks . I’ve tried fix my bear spots many times I’m going try the peat moss next time

Good video. Hoping for good results. I used EZ Straw seeding mulch in place of peat moss since there's no way that I can water the seed 2-3 times a day. Once a day, I can deal with

I also had the zero hose. It leaks and it also didn’t lay down flat when under pressure. I ended up getting my money back and got the Flexzilla hose. Much better !

Hi from New Mexico awesome 👍 luv tat grass..

this looks easy to do - thank you for the video

Great advice! Thanks for posting that!

Solid method Justin! For bare spots I use a de-thatching rake to prep the area and I found for me it works but the little cultivator might be an investment for the future

You Killing it everyday 💯

Just Subscribed!!! YAY!!!👌. My Dad, who lived in Phoenix, had THE GREENEST LAWN IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD, but he just passed in November..... so I'm taking over the lawn. My mom, who is in her 80's is watering it everyday to keep it Super Green. I'm from San Diego so keeping things green there is easy, but here in Phoenix, it is a challenge. I'm ALL IN ON YOUR CHANNEL 🙏

Awesome vid, Dude! Got some dead spots that would not come back this spring. Texas Grass Brigade, ready to implement, Sir!

I have bare spots in my sandy lawn, and I will try to do this for the first time using Bahia seeds, maintenance right now is getting too expensive, this guys don't want to do this kind of job, I will try myself, why not right? Thanks for the great lesson, very professional!👍

So helpful and cutting to the chase. Hadn't thought about the birds...better go fill the feeders 😂. Thanks!

Thanks... I will be using this technique in an area I have in my back. Thanks again ... I have purchased a few items from you - keep up the great videos, This is the first year my lawn has looked its best. Thanks, Lewis / lrobbi from Virginia

Almost had it right ! Thanks for the tips

Thank you!! I burned my yard in places and I’m so upset!! I hope this helps! Thank you!!!

I wish I would have came here before hiring a company to treat my yard. I had several bare spots. They stated to water down the area they treated, wait a week and then till the section, then apply the grass seeds and moss. Then to let them know what areas I laid new grass down. Well after a month waiting no grass ever came. Now I am stuck needing to sod the sections. I wish I just tried to get grass in first. costly. But thanks for the right way.

Excellent video! cut to the chase. No, yapping, thank you so much.

Great tips, man.

So funny this showed up today on my recommended, my lawn care guy just did it for me last Friday lol

Thank you. Really helpful and doable!!!

30sec intro gave me huge laugh. You've earned a sub

Great job simple and easy thanks

I'll be doing the same thing here in a couple of weeks when the soil temps come up enough. 👊👍

1:53 🤭😊 Great video though, straight to the point

Thanks this video was very helpful

"Give it the ol hand job" --I'm dying 😆

Mom and I need to take this into effect and you know why ARCH lol 😂 🎬 thanks for the information

Great video. Would have been nice to close with a one, two, three and four week preview of the results. Thanks for sharing.

Great information. Is the a smaller hand tool to use instead of the weasel if the bare spot is significantly smaller than what you showed? Thanks.

Solid video! Love the tshirt

Thanks this was very helpful 👍

I live in upstate NY. I just use top soil not planting soil to reseed. I rake in a small coverage and then put seed down. The I cover the seeded areas with another thin layer of topsoil. Don't stomp the soil in. Water a bit daily if possibly but it is not a show stopper. Use a a grass seed mix. Rye etc. It will get is started and cover those bare spots. If you have a rash of missing grass in summer or winter it is usually due to grubs. If you have grubs you will get moles that leave raised lines all over your lawn. LOL

I really like your videos.

Maybe I used too much, but Peet Moss holds a crazy amount of water. The first watering draw a line thru it with your finger and you'll be shocked that it's still dry inside. So I recommend making sure it's saturated the first couple tines otherwise the water will never reach the seed the entire time you are waiting for it to germinate! Once it's saturated the subsequent waterings won't need as much water as the initial waterings.

Looks easy. Wondering how 3 times daily watering lightly would work in dry Colorado?

Good video. The grass will grow. Little footnote dig the phosphorous 4" deep into soil if applied on top, know it takes 10 years, for it to move down only 1 inch. Binds very strongly to soil. So better to put it it even 1" down in soil root zone.

got a lot of bald spots in my yard, will do this, thanks for this video

Thank you for the advice im a learning.

I just did this process this afternoon ti get sine grass in the GREAT DEPRESSION I've been filling for 58 days.

You can use a hard-tine rake to loosen the soil as well. Scotts (and others) make seed that includes fertilizer. I used Scott's turf builder sun and shade mix. I used a Scotts "Wizz" to put down the seed. I just used a couple of bags of top soil that I bought from HD for $2cuft and watered it 3 times a day. Filled in two large spots. Within 10 days I had lush grass long enough to cut. Within 3 weeks, it looked like the grass had always been there.

Great info, will need the update video

Great tips!!

Best explanation thanks.

Thanks for posting ..

No matter how well I care for my lawn annually, I'm always repairing select spot that have become distressed due to Northeast summer heat/draught. I've used the garden weasel cultivator with good success but I've found that using the garden weasel claw (the type with handles that you twist) that cultivates the soil much deeper and thoroughly and makes all the difference. It's not as practical as the rotary cultivator which is less invasive and limits attrition to pervading healthy grass plants, but I've found that the deeper turning of soil with the claw ensures better results. I've never used peat moss before but I'm sure that I start using that, too. Thank you.

Liquid concentrated seaweed fertilizer works great also and feed the healthy micro organisms in the soil.

Exellent tutorial.

Rockin the GShock!!

Can you use hydretain to keep the seed wet ? Wonder if that would help with seed growth

Great video!

Awesome video.

What type of seed did you use here? Best recommendations for grass seed types for Tennessee? Full sun vs. mostly shade?

Nice explanation. Thanks

Great helpful video easy to follow info thanx.My Dad always used to water soil b4 sowing grass seeds.Hope that helps?

I NEEDED THIS YESTERDAY - though really I was overseeing and fixing spots. My yard is a hot mess. But I think for the most part (outside of not having enough peat moss 🤦‍♀️) we got it done

Haha. 1:53 gotta love the ol hand job 👍

I’m 15 and we don’t even have a yard, yet I’m watching this

Thanks for the video! Can I grow new grass on those bare spots in Summer?

New construction house -that received a "starter lawn". The grass is not growing well in may areas and I see many small rocks. Do I have to put top soil and then spread the grass seeds? Great and informative content btw

If I’m 9 days into my overseed project (TTTF), and already see where I’m going to be having bare spots, should I go ahead and try to take care of that now or wait two weeks to allow the baby seed to grow first?

Great video.

What are your thoughts on using a roller at the end?
