- Опубликовано: 4 сен 2024
- In this episode of how to fix your ugly lawn, Alex applies Lesco CarbonPro G biochar soil amendment. Lesco CarbonPro is an organic soil enhancer that improves soil quality which helps grow stronger roots. Stronger roots equals healthier grass that is more resistant to drought. It also help the turf maintain its color even when under stress.

As the series progresses, we'll document a process that YOU can follow to transform your ugly lawn to a golf course lawn. In this episode we talk about the benefits of carbon soil enhancements to your lawn care program.
Lesco CarbonPro G is an organic fertilizer / soil amendment that conditions the soil and provides many benefits for bermuda grass and zoysia grass lawn. It's a granular soil amendment that contains humic acid, biochar, compost and other microbial that conditions the soil to improve plant health. CarbonPro G is easier to apply than other granular carbon soil amendments. It's a granular organic soil amendment / fertilizer manufactured by Mirimichi Green for Lesco. Mirimichi Green is a leading producer of carbon soil amendment technology and is known for their great CarbonizPN
Carbon Pro is similar to other carbon fertilizers like Carbon X that promotes deeper, stronger roots through improved nutrient uptake. Stronger roots allow the grass to better take advantage of soil nutrients. This improved nutrient uptake makes your turf grass more efficient which allows you to have green grass using less water. One big it advantage Carbon Pro G has over Carbon X is it makes it possible to add carbon to your soil in the form of rich biochar WITHOUT adding NPK (nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium0 in the process.
The CarbonPro soil conditioner allows your turf grass to perform better in drought and other stressful conditions. For those either trying to seed new lawns or overseed established lawns, Carbon Pro is similar to Carbon Pro L in that it improves seed establishment. We applied it to Alex's Bermuda grass lawn this season along with Carbon Pro L.

@Blaze Marshall Instablaster =)
You have your own lane, and you’re not diverting from the project.
Respect
Heya ZeroTurn. That's the idea. We're about to wrap it up soon. Top dressing video will drop next week! After that it'll just be recovery update videos. 😎👍
Loving these early morning videos
Glad you like them Richard. Figure some people want to get their day started with some lawn care fun. Thanks so much for watching! 😎👍
The lawns recovery from the sprinkler install is coming along very well. Bermuda is really the alpha grass!
Agreed Raul. It's really hard to hurt Caravan G Raul.
I totally understand what you mean, I really think that would help a lot of people. There will always be those that won’t follow directions, but I really believe the vast majority of us who love your content. We will follow to the letter! Love the content! Keep pumping out great material. Hopefully I get to meet you one day seeing that I’m also in the Gwinnett area! Keep up the great job!
Thanks Jeremy. I really appreciate you guys watching the content. Means a ton and motivates me to keep going. I'm sure we'll eventually run into each other. It's a small world. I'll work on a application calendar.
It might seem weird but I like to see how his lawn is improving.
It is strangely satisfying D S. I totally get it. 😎👍
Not weird at all. That’s why we are all watching 🤫
Appreciate you guys watching the content. 😎
His lawn is really looking good
He’s been putting in a ton of work Kevin. It’s really starting to pay off. 👍😎
Another Great Informative Video 👍🏽
I appreciate it Wize Guy! Thanks so much for the kind words and for watching the content.
Alex's yard is looking fantastic already. Great job guys!
His hard work is seriously paying off big time.
1:05 Alex is like yeah yeah let’s get this started lol
That’s how he rolls. All business. 😎
Alex's lawn is looking good!
Most definitely James. His hard work is paying off.
More great content waiting for me this morning - thanks!!! Also, congratulations for hitting 10K subscribers. Onward and Upward to 100K!
Alex really need to put his arm workouts on RUclips - that boi is stacked!
Dear lord. Do not tell him that. He already flexes enough on camera as it is. 😂👍 I'll be sure to tell him LG
Looks great, what awesome work you guys did!!
Thanks so much Torrence! Alex has been working hard on it. Thanks for watching the content.
Another informative video. Thanks 👍
Thanks so much for watching Kevin. I appreciate it.
Looking good. I started seeing if I can grow some Arden 15 this late in the season. Pennington owes you commission
Kevin there's still enough time to grow it. I won't hold my breath for that commission though. 😂👍Let me know how the Arden 15 project turns out.
I will start a petition. I found a landscape company here in Georgia that has Arden. You may already know them . Love your car too. I have a built CTS V. I will keep you posted and have a few neighbors I am getting hooked on your channel. Awesome work and research you provide
@@KevinDJones-rv8ye thanks so much Kevin! I really appreciate it. I'm glad you guys are enjoying the content and getting some value out of it. I'm sure your CTS-V is nasty. Chevy V8s can be absolute monsters with the right parts and tuning. Let me know if I can help with anything else.
Many will go down the rabbit hole. I am at 732 rwhp and thank you for giving many a distraction during these times. A service you may not credit yourself in providing. Our yard psychologist
As long as you got the warm weather you're going to be fine as long as you dont get hit with cold weather before it's established
99th! Great video! Hard to get that stuff up here in Maine?
Shouldn't be too hard Brian. If you have a Site One store near you, they should carry it in stock or be able to easily get it.
How do you battle crab grass Ron?
Hi James. When I had crabgrass, I weeded it manually. A great product for both killing it and preventing it from coming back is to Spectracide. It specifically targets crabgrass and also has a pre-emergent in it as well. amzn.to/2WMeV51 Growing a healthy lawn is also a great way to prevent crabgrass and other weeds.
Watering 3 times a day. Did seed on Saturday so I have a microscope down looking for any signs. I have a small yard so starting one side at a time
Nice Kevin. There's plenty of heat so it should start growing in soon.
Great video and your results are amazing. Do you have a test area without this product?
Hi Phillip. No not really. I just compare how the lawn looks this year to how it was last year. Also, given the heat we've been getting, a lot of lawns in my neighborhood are starting to go into dormancy while mine is still staying fairly green. The turf is definitely doing better this year compared to last year.
I had such a tough time with Carbon Pro G. It kept getting stuck. I was using a tow spreader, so I was constantly having to check to see if it was coming through the opening. I had to stop A LOT. In fact, I had to open the portal even more to get it started. For me, it wasn't so much clumping as it was just not flowing. Sometimes there was an opening from the bottom to the top and tons of product on the sides not falling through the opening. I think I will go with the liquid version next week, because I am really not sure how much of my lawn I actually missed with the granular.
Hi Mind Business. How wide open were you running the spreader? On an Earthway spreader, setting 23 provides a pretty good rate where the product flows smoothly. I'm sorry you had a poor outcome. Which spreader were you using?
@@RonHenry I used a Agri-Fab spreader that recommends 3-5 for granules and I put it on 7, but it would still get clogged or stop falling into the opening.
Good job guys.
Alex has been putting in that work Robert. It's definitely paying off.
@@RonHenry u know what Ron. I found out today that my McClane reel mower actually did my swale much better than the gm1600.
Nice nice Robert. I can see that. My GM1600 doesn't work well within my swale.
Carbon is all the rage. Are you finding the Lesco Carbon Pro G at big box stores or online?
Hi Lawn Journey. The only place I believe it's currently sold is through Site One. Hopefully there's one in your area nearby. 😎👍
🌞Man, your channel has taken off!! What's the secret other than great content? 👍 I notice you use square brackets in the title. Is that some algorithm catcher? Anyway, keep up the hard work! 🌞
Heya Sunny Bermuda. I started using square brackets because psychologically it looks more like a link to be clicked which people are pretty used to. That's just one part of it though. Creating good thumbnails is really important because no matter how good your video is, it won't matter if no one is compelled to look at it. Once the video starts, get straight to the point telling the viewer what the video is about and what they can expect. That helps set the tone and will increase the likelihood of the viewer continuing to watch.
So instead of starting your video with your intro, start it with telling them what's coming up in the video. Then if you want to use an intro as a bridge it would be ok. So the timeline looks something like. Set *Expectations ---> Short Intro ----> Content*. Assuming you have good thumbnails, the content is what really matters. Figure out what people are having trouble with and create content to help them with that problem. Think of RUclips as a video search engine. If you focus on providing the best answer to the question in an entertaining way, your channel should start performing better. It's all about what's most helpful to the viewer. Does that make help? 😎👍
@@RonHenry Yes, sure does. Thank you for sharing!
No problem at all Sunny. Let me know if I can help with anything else.
Hey Ron love all of the content you’re putting out! I have a question are you or have you put out a calendar and exactly what products you recommend to put out at that time? Thanks for all the great content.
Hi Jeremy. I’m still debating with whether to release a calendar like that because it really only works if you do everything I’m doing. For example, I add nitrogen to my lawn every month during the growing season. That only works if used in combination with PGR. If you only do the fertilizer without the PGR, you’ll be hating life because the lawn will grow like crazy.
@@RonHenry Thanks for the videos! I would urge you to put out a calendar but also a timeline for the project of the series. I have started already with the Carbon Pro and would love to follow things to the T so both a yearly calendar as per your yard but also for this series would go a long long way! Love the series! My lawn already feels better!
@@RaviKalaga thanks for watching the content Ravi. What you're seeing in the Fix My Ugly Lawn series was done in 1 week intervals. So over the course or 9 weeks. I keep getting requests for a calendar. I'll work on creating one. Let me know if I can help with anything else.
@@RonHenry Thanks man! Just got 5k sq ft lawn in Texas and your videos have made it easy to get my hands dirty and kickstart the lawn renewal! Do your thing and we will be cheering you on!!
Bro. Make spreader calculations so much easier. Use your desired rate and weigh what you need, but use 1/3 of the spreader max setting as a starting setting. I use a small scale and a cut open and cleaned washer fluid jug.
Too heavy rate? Adjust down a hair.. too light, adjust up a hair. I’m neurotic but I weigh everything now.. takes the guesswork out of everything. And makes me feel more pRoFeSsIoNaL 😅😆😁 love the channel so far! Just found you.
That’s a good tip man. I can see how your method would be more precise. Thanks so much for watching the content. Much appreciated. 🙏😎
Ron Henry I cant take credit. Doc opened my eyes. You do good work.. 😎😎 keep it up.
@@35057 thanks man. I enjoy working on it. Thanks for watching the content.
Congrats on 10k
Thanks so much Tomax. I appreciate it. 😎👍
One thing that bothers me profoundly is the slope or gradient in the mansion in the rear view. It’s bare. What can we do about it? Any landscaping ideas?
Hi Robert. I like an open lawn vs. having trees and shrubs to mow around. Easier to keep the grass looking good without shade.
Looking good !!! What’s the HOC Alex is maintaining during this project? Once completed, will he look to drop the HOC any?
Hi Steve. He's cutting at .75" I imagine he'll perhaps take it down one notch once the lawn fully recovers. Figure .625" or so. .75" bench height is the sweet spot in my opinion for home lawns where you want that really tight look with good stripes.
When I do my leveling, I’ll scalp down to .75 from 1.25. I plan to get it down to the .625 range as my bench height which should put me with an actual cut around .5 with a grooved front roller.
Can you help me think though spreading carbon pro g vs buying compost and top dressing? Where would topdressing w compost make more sense?
Hi Christopher. For larger areas, (greater than 2000 square feet) I’d lean towards top dressing with compost. You can great results either way. If you’d like to see how a lawn can be top dressed with carbonizPN (non-granular carbon pro-g) check this video out: ruclips.net/video/lOiblKMgqzM/видео.html
approx. how long after applying the liquid carbon treatment did/should you apply the G?
You an apply right after. For more info check this out: ruclips.net/user/shortsdrjn9ov87nk
Hi Ron, living in Coweta County with bermuda grass. Tons of rain lately and I think Iam getting a fungus do to the rain (brown spots spread about) any tips for how to treat? Also any tips for Army worms?
Hi Looney Looney. For the fungus issue, get Headway G. ron-henry.com/headwayg Contains 2 active ingredients that should knock out the brown patch. For the army worms, go with Acelepryn G: ron-henry.com/acelepryng. Appreciate you watching the content.
Thank you ! Enjoy your passion and willingness to share!
what model spreader did you use for Carbonpro?
Hi Jose. I'm using an Earthway 2050P spreader. Works great for applying CarbonPro-G. Can get it here: amzn.to/3cM7F1b
Great content Ron. I'm thinking of using this product next season (Tall Fescue/Bluegrass Mix) Charlotte, NC. Unlike the Carbon L, Carbon G does not list a frequency the product should be applied. Any thoughts.
Hi Deon. You can apply it monthly without issue. An alternative to CarbonPro-G is Essential-G. You can think of it as CarbonPro-G 2.0: golfcourselawn.store/products/essential-g%E2%84%A2-granular-carbon-free-shipping
Sexy lawns coming along brother!
They're definitely getting there man. The hard work is paying off! 😎👍
Hey Ron does it need to water the grass after or before apply carbonPro? Alex should be proud of you guys work, looking great already
Hi Eudes. It's not strictly necessary to water the product in but it's a good idea. CarbonPro-G is a soil amendment technology so you really want to get it into the soil as soon as possible so that it can start working. Make sense?
Ron Henry yep thanks again 👍👊
@Eudes Santana 👍👊
Loving the videos brother, I did have a quick question, for my lawn i have a few spots that need new grass, i place seeds and mulch down but the birds keep getting the seeds lol what can i place to keep the birds from eating the seeds?
Nrod, there's not a ton you can do that will keep them away that won't involve harming them. I experienced the same issue with my lawn when overseeding. I just held back a little seed so that I could add more to the areas that were slow to grow in due to the birds eating them. You'll eventually get ahead of the birds. Sorry I don't have better option.
@@RonHenry No worries dude, i'll try doing that i'll trying holding back some
😎👍

How many bags did you go through?
For Alex’s lawn, 2 bags John.

What happens next year ?? Alex might dominate your lawn I don’t see this ending well . The grass catchers are coming off, lawn wars in the future.
😎😎😂😂😂
Hahahhaa. He just might Davin24. He's been putting in a ton of work consistently which is the recipe for a great lawn. I'm good with having two great lawns side by side. 😎
Lol i have the same “problem” with my neighbor, but he is “Ron” and im “Alex” 😅
Eudes Santana 😢
@@davin24 :-)
Would this be a good product if all my macronutrients are low???
Hi Andre. For macronutrients (nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium) being low, most fertilizers will improve those. For micronutrient deficiencies, a product like Brandt Supreme Green would be better. You can find an alternative here on Amazon: amzn.to/2WRaPrI Which nutrients are you low in?
@@RonHenry Unfortunately all three macronutrients, Magnesium, Iron, zinc, copper, and boron. My pH is optimal at least
So when are you going to start letting Alex talk ? 😆
He does in an upcoming episode. 😎😂
Just what I was 🤔 thinking
@@bermudalawnnc3516 sooonn!!!

Finally! Onto 11k right? 😎👍
I talked to a rep from Central Irrigation in Tyrone, he suggested Jackpot . What’s ur expertise opinion?
Hi Darnell. This is the first I'm hearing of the Jackpot product. Are you referring to the one by BioSi? I've not used it or know anyone else that has. That doesn't mean that it's no good though. I'll have to do more research on it before being able to offer an informed opinion. Thanks for telling me about it.
Jackpot Organic-Based Fertilizer
Jackpot 17-0-4 50% SRN / Jackpot 17-0-4 with .37% Prodiamine
Systematically meters 5 sources of nitrogen
Intense and fast green up within 7-10 days
Extended green that lasts all season long
Low environmental impact
Apply to any turf type, any time of year
Organic matter reduces surge growth, provides disease resistance, and improved heat and drought tolerance
Thanks for sharing this Darnell. I've not heard of the product before yesterday. I'll have to do some research on it. Thanks again!
Ron...what's the percentage of BioCar inside that bag of CHARBON G?? hehehe...jk...messin wit ya!
🚗bon G has 47% bio🚗if I'm not mistaken. 😂
@@RonHenry hehehehe u so loko!
Guilty as charged. 🤣
Alex's phone is almost as big as he is!
Ha. I'm not sure which model he has exactly.
Biochar...keep saying it wrong!
It's a special version Carlos. 😂 I have trouble saying Chhhhar. If you look at my other video, I say it the same way. I figure a slight mispronunciation is better than stuttering to say it over and over. Will work on it for future videos. Thanks for watching the content.
@@RonHenry its ok. You give a great presentation on video. Clear and concise. Even my kids enjoying watching with me. Keep it up :)
Thanks so much as Flynn. I try to keep it as fun as I can while still being useful. I appreciate you watching the content. 👍😎
