I ordered my GCI grass seed yesterday! It arrived at my house today! Wow! Never though it would come that fast!

Hey Pete! Just wanted to thank you for the grass seed. I put it down on Sept 21 and today it is aggressively poking up through the peet moss I put over it. That's 5 days! Amazing product brother! I faithfully kept it moist, watering about three times a day. So - thanks for the advice too! Its going to look great here in Chapel Hill!

Mornin Pete! I'm putting down 25lbs of GCI seed today after aerating. Have a great weekend! ✝️

Helpful stuff! Start at a low setting and make more passes until you figure out your own calibration. Have a great weekend, bro!

Aerated yesterday, putting down grass seed and fert today. Good video!!

Thank you for explaining this, I got my first acreage and just bought a broadcast spreader. I golf a lot and saw that the maintenance guys use Lesco products, so I thought if it's good enough for the links, it's good enough for me. Thanks for showing me how to set up this spreader for the 30-0-10 I picked up and I learned a lot!

Great info Pete! I get that same question a lot. Folks love it when I say depends.

Thanks for the video. I just bought a used version of this spreader with the third whole kit for opening and closing. I wasn’t sure exactly what it was for!

Another great video Pete!

Great video! Love your wrist band too!

Hey Pete could you do a video on the Lesco spreader calibration keys. Didn’t see one on KZfaq yet would be interesting how to use them. Thanks

Hey Pete can you do. Video on how to use the Lesco calibration keys thanks

Would you want a third hole slide cable set up for that lesco spreader? You would not have to bend down each time to adjust the third hole slide. Kit mounts quickly to the spreader to existing holes.

Informative video Pete. Thanks for sharing.😁👍👍

Thanks Pete. Very helpful.

Good vid! Thanks Pete!

what kind of expert are you if you don't know my spreader settings!??!? j/k sir. Another very educational video!

Classic Pete!

i like the lesco thank you using it

Is this video for fertilizers that don't have the calibration/ spreader settings on the bag?

Good video Pete. You need a Permagren Agitator in that lesco spreader. Same one that fits all permagreens fits all lesco 3 hole spreaders. If you want one I can send you one for that spreader.

Great video, I have a question out of all the spreaders you have used over the last couple of years which on works the best for you, and last over over period of time? Have you ever done a video on different spreaders , and you reason chose the particular one? Thanks

My man!!!

Great info Peter.

Hey Pete....I went through 2 ~ 50 lb bags of seed this week. Did GCI exceed that ?

Pete, can you use the Lesco to spread Peat Moss like you did with your gas spreader?

Pete....how does the grasshopper/aeravator compare with ventrax/ aeravator?

MY MAN👍💪

Helpful. Didn't exactly understand what you meant by throwing it to the inside of the wheel on the second pass though.

Any way to buy used Lesco Spreaders? They are beasts. But so darn expensive new.

Yep, you don't have to be a rocket rocket surgeon do the math. I just figure out how many pounds of product per 1,000 square feet, and how many square feet I'm working with in an area. So for over-seeding at 5 lbs per 1,000 on 10k square feet of lawn would be 50 lbs of seed. I pour in half of the 50 lb bag in my spreader, then I do half rate in one direction, and then pour in the rest of the bag (usually bump the rate up 1 notch since I tend to walk fast) and cross back in the opposite direction, therefore doing double passes. It's just like double mowing in a cross-hatch pattern.

Get your spreader settings right😀

On aLesco spreader “f” equals fertilizer setting , joking

hey pete. worse professional spreader ive ever seen. closing plate is in the bottom of the already deep holes instead of closer to the top to prevent fert dust buildup and funnel effect. 3 holes means smaller opening and when u get a small clump or rock it messes up the amount of fert being used and spread pattern. 2 or even 1 hole is better. when fertilizing i feel that the hopper weight is to forward and not leaning back enough causing it to be top heavy and you cant lean the weight back because the frame wont allow it. Am I the only one who thinks this? please comment
