I just say surfactant lol

All good man. The content is solid….most of us like hearing from real people that make a mistake here and there 👍

@@rubenharris9241 absolutely 👍

Content is SOLID. We know what you were talking about, I wouldn't care if you called it "Blue Monkey 💩". Thanks for the content. Although I did cringe the 1st time and laughed each time after, lol ...

@@BrandonD1R thanks bro. I appreciate this. Even though it was a serious DUMBASS moment. I'll be better lol. If the worst I do is pronounce a word wrong, I'll be ok with that 😂. I appreciate your support!

Absolutely bro!

great channel as well, dude!

I watched videos he both you guys! I learned about the ammonium sulfate and now this! I’m getting those weeds down for good!

Hey man, I really appreciate this comment. A lot of work goes into these videos, so when someone notices it hits home for me 😂. I truly do appreciate the support! Thanks for watching

Thanks bro! I cleaned the hell out of my sprayer before doing those shots. I was nervous about killing my wife's plants 😂

Appreciate you always tuning in Ced!

Thanks Robert! I appreciate the support. Glad you enjoyed it!!

Hey man, we definitely appreciate this comment! A lot of time and energy goes into these videos. We're not just trying to talk to a camera like they did in the old days 😂

Get the speedzone ready 😂. Appreciate you watching!

Thanks for always watching brada! Speedzone is the real deal

Thanks for stopping by Frank!

Thank you! I'm getting burnt out already 😂 these edits take too long lol.

@@LAWNLIFE I’m looking forward to the fungus preventative video this year, but living in Iowa our current conditions are almost right for fungus so I may already have my preventative down before that video comes out. Keep up the hard work!

My in-laws got it off Etsy I believe. Thanks for watching!

I have quackgrass bad in my backyard. It's absolutely brutal. There's nothing you can do to control it other than reel mow. It tries creeping in my front lawn but can't handle being cut so short

He's in hardiness zone 4, and St Augustine tolerates 7-12 with effort and is best in zones 8-10. Minnesota definitely doesn't (or shouldn't) grow St Augustine.

Had no idea he could rap, ok YardBrah, time for you to drop one on your next vid 🎤🤣

I try to give little hints here and there. Lol. Thanks for stopping by Brah! I appreciate the support!!

Lol. Definitely not me rapping. He may or may not have one coming 😯.....

@@LAWNLIFE 😂🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💪🏾

😎😎😎 you know what it is.. 🤣🤣

That will work better as a surfactant than the urea will. I didn't want to overwhelm people with three different ingredients. But definitely put it on if you have it.

Dude 100% buy local urea. Definitely the smart move. That's what I do. I just usually have 50 ppl asking me for links to urea so I added it. A lot of ppl tell me they can't find it. I definitely appreciate your support Tony. Thanks for watching!

@LAWNLIFE It looks like we are both locals. You should come do a video on my crappy yard, lol

Speedzone is discontinued but you can still buy it on Amazon in the 20oz bottle. I'm gonna look into Bonide, I've never heard of it. Thanks for dropping all of your knowledge Joe. I appreciate your insight!

No pack no! Thanks for the support 😂

They have discontinued it, but it is still available on Amazon. I did some digging before the video and it seemed like their replacement wasn't getting that great of reviews. I didn't check the active ingredients though.

Thanks for always watching!

Thanks Brian! Appreciate you watching!

If you're getting yellow you might be applying too much herbicide. I usually get zero yellowing, but I use the low end of the recommended rate. And yes, nitrogen is definitely helping with the green up, two birds one stone!

I missed an opportunity there 😂

Def is ok for the urea. I would do the seakelp and green envy in a different app? Have you used the seakelp or green envy yet?

Yes

I use teejet nozzles. Well worth the money

We don't get any good sprays here eh. Tanacity is banned here too

Yes

If you have tunnels going through your lawn that collapse when you step on them, it's definitely moles. Take care of those first. I've had the best success with traps. After that I would wait until August to start attacking the problems. If you kill the weeds now you won't have anything but bare dirt and won't be able to seed until then. I would kill the weeds in early august and then overseed with elite cultivars of grass that is shade tolerant in mid to late August. Email me around then and I can help you more if you need it.

@@LAWNLIFE Any recommended traps? Any value up planting grass now to convert existing bare spots?

I've had the best luck with Victor Out o'sight traps. I would skip seeding until mid August or so. It won't survive the summer if you seed now.

Yes you can. Urea acts as a surfactant but not as well as a non-ionic. I didn't want to tell people to put the kitchen sink in their mix. Glad you're getting a good kill!

The citric acid is for the mixture to allow for better coverage (helping with surface tension of the water). It won't change soil pH.

Use Ammonium Sulfate fertilizer to help bring down your pH of your soil. The CA in this video is used for bringing down the pH of your water (the carrier).

@@LAWNLIFE Thanks for the feedback..! And I have hard water as well.. go figure.

T-Zone is a great option also! Good luck with the kill!

Speedzone is labeled for both. Never used it directly on Creeping Charlie myself, but I trust the manufacturer's label

@@LAWNLIFE Thank you Sir! appreciate your content!

The herbicide is way more dependable 😂

I wouldn't. They are different types of acid

Vinegar is Non selective. It will kill everything including your grass. I would not use it

Yes you can

@@LAWNLIFE thank you! My lawn is off to such an incredible start, and I owe it to you and this channel! Keep up the awesome work

@@reflex191 these are the best comments. Love it! Let me know if you ever have any other questions!

Yes. You can DEFinitely do that. Ha. Just make sure you're doing your math right so you're not putting down more than 0.2 lbs of Nitrogen per thousand square feet. You'll have the potential of burning your lawn if you do

@@LAWNLIFE can you hit your boy up over at princess cuts and fact check him on his nitrogen break down for the DEF that he had used. He stated that it would be a 15-0-0 for a 2.5 gallon container that contains 32.5% Urea. Help me out on this one if possible. And thanks for the reply.

@@d9t2s52392 urea is 46% nitrogen so you have to take 32.5 x 0.46 to get 14.95%. Essentially making it a 15-0-0

I would test a spot first. A lot of variables with liquid fertilizers cuz there's so many different mixes of things in them. I'm sure it'd be fine in most cases but I'd definitely try just a couple areas first before going crazy

I'm not a fan of tenacity either. Takes way too long and the bleaching is ridiculous. Speedzone bleaches weeds a bit but not your grass. Label says 7-14 for a kill. I'm noticing around 1 week for 75% of it to die. The bleaching isn't as bad as tenacity either

@LAWN LIFE Awesome thanks!..Yes I can't handle the bleech look anymore. I was buying grass paint to hide the bleech look in the grass lol.

@@LIGHT7CODE7 😂😂 so many other great options instead of tenacity. I'm actually thinking about doing a video on why tenacity is a joke lol. Thanks for watching man!

@LAWN LIFE Do it man! Would love to see it.

05:03 I tell you at that time stamp.

⁠@@LAWNLIFEIs the 3.5 oz urea by volume or weight?

Probably banned in your state. What state are you in? I can try finding you a good alternative.

@@LAWNLIFE in New Jersey

Allowed, but only to state certified applicators. Not to be sold to, used by or stored by non certified people. Says so on the label. Some states have gone after online vendors selling restricted products to non qualified people.

Probably would do just as good 🤣 it's ridiculous how small the number is to move the pH.

@@LAWNLIFE I have a degree in food science - that amount of citric acid could become your new ranch dressing....put that sh*t on everything 🤣 ...in tiny doses

Label says to keep humans and animals off until it dries. I usually wait a day and turn on my irrigation before letting anyone back onto the lawn

Let me know how it goes. I've never used it.

@@LAWNLIFE works great. Same result as in your vid just without all the mixing.

Now you have

I'm not sure. probably something in it that's banned here. Never tried using it. You can order T-zone as it's very similar

@@LAWNLIFE tenacity also can't be shipped here

@@Birdknowsbest try ordering from domyown.com I've ordered tenacity from there before and Triad shouldn't be banned here. I just looked it up

@@Birdknowsbest i was trying to order Tenacity and now i know why :D.

It does work as a surfactant also. You're also not hurting anything by adding a non-ionic surfactant, which may work slightly better than urea, but I didn't want to tell people to throw the kitchen sink into their mix.

@@LAWNLIFE Cool, I didn’t know urea acted like a surfactant, first time I’ve heard that, I have been known to add ammonium sulphate & baby shampoo to glysophate when doing a total kill off ,it takes a couple of weeks to work but everything is killed on one application, Does ammonium sulphate have surfactant properties too?

Why would they be salting anything right now? How is it ending up your lawn?

😂😂 Thanks for watching!

I'm lowering the pH of my carrier because it's way too high. Not the pH of the herbicide.

@@LAWNLIFE it's 2,4-D is very soluble in water. Look at pubchem. The 2,4-D pH will be 1:1 with the medium.

You're right. Failed there.

​@@LAWNLIFEso much harder trying to say everything correctly on camera than one would think. Awesome video, really helpful. Also like seeing the shoutout to George, he's got a lot of great content and seems like a good guy.

It does spray 1 gallon over 1,000 sq ft. I calibrate it by setting my gpm to my walking speed
