Great Tips Travis. Patients is key for sure. Just finished running a brush on lawn to fluff up then cut the orange tips down with earthwise manual reel. Holding off on fertilizer until my 2nd legit mow. My thought is to allow lawn to naturally wake up on it's own and allow roots to grow deep vs. creating unnecessary top growth early in season when lawn will naturally grow like gangbusters. That's my cool season plan. Almost there. 👍🏻 Maybe sand cap in fall since I still have some spots to fill in with sifted top soil.

Here in South Texas, grass was fully green by March! Had a few weeks of high temps that brought everything out of dormancy.

@BudgetLawns Жыл бұрын
Nice job. You make a good point. If you overseeded bermuda with a winter grass, your first fertilization will be earlier if you want the rye to keep going. Some people kill it off early though to not impede their bermuda wake up. I've seen a bermuda lawn not fully take shape all season after a botched overseed not being killed early enough in spring. Thanks for watching.

The majority of homes in my neighborhood in central Oklahoma had their lawns scalped by mid February. Temps last night in mid March were in the teens. My plan was to wait until first week of April but I may wait another week or two. Very poor idea to scalp so early in the year, more detrimental than it is helpful in my opinion.

Hey dude, we’ve talked before but I’ll tell you, I thought I was all geared up for this year, I have two big silver maples in my front that basically turned my front yard in to mush my wife has heard me complain about them for years now and for Valentine’s Day this year she got a tree company with an arborist come in and prune everything way back. So I thought ok , I’m gonna go r Through all the steps thisyear so I stock piled the tools and product to start this year off right and so far this year weather and and soil temps told me not yet wait for it wait for it, then I look out at the front the other day and I see all these yellow flowers out there and I was likeWTF is this ? I researched and found out it’s called yellow wood sorrel or oxalis and in my area of Pennsylvania I apparently was supposed to have another month before I was supposed to put down a pre emergent!
@BudgetLawns Жыл бұрын
Don't sweat it man. Lawn care is full of curveballs. That's what makes it fun if you ask me. The yellow wood sorrel, or oxalis, isn't that bad. I've dealt with it before. Very easy to pull out with shallow roots. That's how I got rid of a patch in my front lawn. However, it's also easy to kill with a post emergent herbicide. It's all good. Thanks for watching and commenting as always.

Travis, Matt here…here is what I have done. I have tons of weeds, so I went to price milling a while back and bought some Atrazine 4L and Bermuda seed…It smoked the weeds. I basically have no Bermuda in my front and side yards. Should I till up my yard and clean that..apply top soil and spread the Bermuda seed? Or can I just throw Bermuda seed without tilling it?
@BudgetLawns Жыл бұрын
Hey man. Yeah, sounds like you need to cut it down as low as possible and bag to get as much trash outta the way. A light layer of topsoil would prolly be a good idea, unless you go across the lawn roughing it up somehow. You just wanna make sure that when you spread the seeds, they’re making good seed to soil contact. Wanna keep it pretty moist too. Wouldn’t wanna do this until it warms up quite a bit. Bermuda seed will need warmer temps to see success. Overall, it sounds like you’re thinking in the right direction. Hope this helps. Great to hear from ya. Hope all is well. 👊👍
@1635mw Жыл бұрын

@BudgetLawns Жыл бұрын
I don't use fungicides or pesticides. You'd need to follow your label and see if those need watered in. If they do, you would want to keep them separated from the weed killer because it shouldn't be watered in. I'm gonna point you to Turf Therapy and Elevated Lawnscapes. They're a little closer to your location and have some great stuff on the applications you mentioned. Thanks for watching and commenting.

I have repeatedly heard about not mowing before spraying weeds and I am going to respectfully disagree. I have had way more success spraying herbicide on a freshly cut weed. The science probably doesnt support what I am saying, but to me spraying herbicide on a fresh "wound" would allow it to enter the weed that much easier.
