I have been watching KZfaq for years now and I have to say your lawn front and back are right up there with the best I have ever seen. I am partial to KBG but they both look amazing. Well done sir.

Absolutely a KZfaqr after my own heart. I was gonna over seed 5 iron p.r.g. over my kgb. Love the blue grass. Scotts and midnight mix. Looks good but even after 1.5 years still spotty. Like to have the best of both worlds. Just figured in 2 years I'd over seed with midnight again. Love this vid. Dude

That lawn is killer, absolutely amazing, color is really dark green!!! It looks perfect to me!!

I killed off part of my lawn and went with 100% KBG, it germinated so slow it allowed other weeds to germinate right along with it. So, I hope the 'elite' seed I used will out compete it eventually. KBG can be aggressive, but it's like watching paint dry.

Princess lawn sent me over. I enjoy the content 👍

I use a 50/50 rye kbg here east central Iowa, which is very popular around to use. Does well over the winter and use try to keep moist during the hot summer days.

great info!!! this Spring I tried 70% KBG & 30%PRG mix seeds. I wasnt very sure what grass types my previous home owner was seeding..prob TTTF/Fine fescue/PRG/CRF/KBG all mixed.. to have a better result with my seeds, I know I should be doing a full renovation,, it's just look like it is a so much work n I would need to take vacation days 🥴 after looking at your video, it made me think I should definitely try reno at some point!

Thanks for the video. I'm redoing my front yard and bought the seed superstore KBG mix with the three types. Then I saw a bunch of KZfaqrs using barenbrug's rpr and started regretting my decision. This makes me feel more confident in my choice!

Another good video. Just commented on your KB overseed video. Still struggling whether to renovate my new KB sod that struggled this summer with KB or Rye. I really like how quick Rye grass establishes. I’m sick of seeing all the dry brown Kb that I’ve been looking at since June

I love perennial ryegrass for so many reasons and one big one is how well it stripes like you said. I live in vancouver, BC and it seems to really thrive here with our widely variable climate and lots of rain. Yes it doesn't have rhizomes like KBG but it doesn't need them with how quickly it germinates and establishes which makes overseeding ridiculously easy while still producing incredible results. Mow it tall in the summer and it's also decently heat and drought resistent and can be kept up with hand watering. One issue I have though which seems to be the opposite of your problem is mine is too thick with how often I overseed and it almost ends up choking itself off, I have to dethatch a couple times a year.

Both front and back look phenomenal. I love KBG and have Bluebank KBG out front. I'm curious to mix some PGR in the back. Tried some barenbrug RPR in spring but didnt work out well. Might try the SS9000 in the fall.

Felicidades por tus primeros 1000 suscriptores !!!👍

Great video. I’m about to put down regenerating perennial rye by Barenbrug down mixed in with my KBG. Hope they both compete to make a nice thick yard. Maybe something for you to consider. Mono strains are cool but each grass has its strengths and weaknesses

Again your lawn looks amazing as always. I noticed at the beginning of the clip you have the same issue as me when cutting across the grain. It pulls the Swardman in different directions making it hard keeping the stripes straight. That’s the only down side I think of the Swardman being so light.

I’m with you on all your points. With that said you should add in some RPR to your ryegrass. All the pros of rye but it spreads and fills in bare spots itself like KBG.

Awesome insight Aaron! Kbg has been getting a lot of hate lately, I’m glad to see prg has some of the same issues!

Love the video! Thank you for the comparison. Think I may do both mixed together and see how it comes out. What reel mower are you using? Interested in learning about it.

Beautiful lawn!! What variety of Kentucky Bluegrass did you use on your front lawn? I was disappointed with my front lawn renovation last fall. I used a premium seed 50% Kentucky Blue 50% perennial rye. And after 7 weeks I am still trying to get rid of all the perennial rye seed stalks and stems. It gives my lawn a brown cast. Next month I would like to overseed with Kentucky Blue seed with the darkest color I can find.

That is one thing I have to say, I did a reno and used a mix of TTTF and KBG and it just doesn't stripe up .. My side yard is a Mutt Grass mix... and it stripes SO MUCH better....very little KBG

Hey, I noticed the elevator hat. I’m in the elevator business myself. Not that common. George sent me over. Just subbed

Cool, by now you know you can just overseed with the Kentucky Blue. It will be quite nice in a year or two.

Did you plant that rye for the future of a outting green? Also do you know if Kentucky blue would be good for a putting green and top dressing it or will the sand interfere with the grass growing and suffocate it? I have a entire back yard of new construction so I have to start ground up. Any suggestions. Your videos are easy to watch straight to the point I like them.

Great video! I’m a kbg guy too but prg is so much more appetizing haha

Looks amazing. Bluegrass for the win for me. What reel mower is that? Looks vintage

The PRG doesn't have the same thickness of blade that's why it feels different. It's pretty soft when mowed taller. Yours looks amazing though. Really nice. 👊🏼

Looks amazing though!

Lawn looks great. I think the reason PRG stripes so well is because it has a glossy side to the blade that reflect light whereas the KBG is a more matte blade. Have you considered over seeding your KBG with PRG?

Great one!!! My hesitation about KBG is its need of water... This fall I might do 80-20 KBG/PR and hope it will hopefully work well here in Western NY. How long did it take for your KBG after seeding? Keep the great videos coming! 💪🏻

May I ask, what KBG cultivars you have planted in front ?? Front looks 👀 amazing!! Thanks 🙏🏻

Debating Overseeding perennial rye vs bluegrass this fall. Thinking since the bluegrass takes so long to germinate, overseeding might be difficult? I have a large yard and can only mow with my 54 inch zero turn. Thoughts?

Just planted a RPR front lawn in northern Vermont and I’m second guessing myself as I’m now worried about it making it through the winter. How was your first winter with the ryegrass? I assume you saw some snow a d freezing temps? Did it come right back to life in the spring?

Only thing I am interested in is SUMMER when temps are 90%+ how does it stack up?

Any specific reason that you have KBG in your front yard and perennial ryegrass in your back yard? Sunlight or shade tolerance perhaps? Or do you just enjoy the variety? Also, what is your preferred height to cut both grasses?

Nice yard I was wondering what kentucky blue grass are you using since I see there’s different strands. Midnight?

Great video. If you could do it again would you recommend mixing both KBG and PRG? And if so, 50/50? Im also in IL and want to do a lawn Reno. Thank you.

Both are beautiful, but what do you plant on the side yard?

How do you get the different colors when mowing. Seems like you mowed right over it and the different shades of grass were still there. Curious in Washington state

What do you think of mixing the two? They supposedly look enough alike that it won't look permanently patchy, but they do have different characteristics, including drought and disease resistance, so possibly complementary.

Great video! I agree with all that you are saying since I have about a 50/50 mix of RPR perennial rye and KGB Midnight. I love the early spring green up, and late fall color with the rye. While I also love the heartiness and spreading of the KGB. A mix of rye and KGB is the best of both worlds. I do notice that the rye does not like extreme heat and requires a bit more water. All in all, I like the two mixed together. I would do KGB as a mono stand but probably not the rye. Thanks for the heart video content.

Did you spread seed right over the dead grass? I can't make out if it's brown grass or bare dirt.

what reel mower was that in the beginning of the video?

Does the rye grass start to grow seed/flower if it’s left to grow longer before cutting?

Do you have a video for fall over seeding?

Great video buddy. I’m in NY state. I’m looking to start ever seeding. Would you recommend the Kentucky bluegrass. Or is there a other type of grass you would recommend. I friend spoke to me about soysia grass.

What area of the country do you live in? I am in zone 6, transition zone near Kansas City. I love KBG! But struggle with keeping it alive through our hot, humid summers. Any secrets you’ve learned about seeding, watering, cutting heights for KBG?! Thank you for the excellent video!

WOW! I am New home owner with what started off as a KBG sod lawn. I notice that you cut very low. Everything I read on KBG is to keep it 2.5-3.5 high. Yours looks real low but looks amazing. Can you offer some insight? Also where are you located. I am in the North ast so not sure if that is maybe why the difference.... Thanks in advance

I tried RPR Ryegrass and it has no trouble filling in like a traditional perennial rye grass.

Will KBG survive the winter in the Texas panhandle?

What about a mix between the two?

New to the grass game. Live in the Pacific Northwest. Does Scott’s make a PRG and KBG mix? Or is everyone just mixing seeds by hand in their spreaders ? Great channel. Keep it coming.

I live in Spokane, but came from the West side, which is perennial ryegrass, that is lush and green 24/7. Spokane gets super hot, super cold, and pretty darned arid. Having a lawn here is a pretty expensive and high-maintenance joke, as this area only has a few native bunch grasses that are somewhat green 1 month a year. What the HECK kind of TURF do I even PLANT here, man??? Floppers tore out the landscape and tossed down ryegrass. Needless to say, 3/4 my entire lot is DEAD and re-WEEDED. What the HECK do I plant in Spokane??? Rather have nice lawn in summer-ALL species go dormant here for winter. I am at a complete loss. I AM gradually putting BACK darned shrubs since I face South-Freezes, dries and fries.

Which has more poa growth?

Which type is more drought resistant, Kentucky Bluegrass or Perennial Rye?

Any Grub issues with blue or rye grass ?

Are they both cut at the same height?

What variety/cultivar of KBG did you use?

what height are you mowing both types at?

Do you have a underground sprinkler system

I wish Kentucky Bluegrass could get a deeper root system. I feel like the deeper the roots, the harder the grass is.

just overseed with some KBG.

Where re you? I’m in Texas.

Which one is easier to edging

what state are you in?

KBG!

Is the perennial rye grass also called Mexican Grass?

Dude, if you planted the Ryegrass only a yr ago of course it won’t have great density. Give it a couple yrs. I’m actually shocked how dense it is only a yr in.

Whats up broski. Your lawn looks great! Just subbed! Add your email in your about section. I want to hit you up about something.

How old is your blue grass?

Stripes are crooked as hell
