I love everything about your videos. I can see your attention to detail in every aspect... Not just the lawn, but the videoing, recording and editing. Its like ASMR in some places (which is a good thing - chills me right out). I'd love to see your lawn on a dewy, misty day, however weird that sounds :-) I bet your home is pristine and tidy and your partner the most contented soul on earth.
Thanks Becky, this gotta be the best comment I’ve received since I started this channel, and as far as the tidy house, we’ll I have 2 kids 😁 and I hope the wife is contented 🙂
Great job and attention to detail, this for sure is one of the best lawn transformations I've seen so far. WORTHY OF EVERY THUMBS UP! I'm now a subscriber and will be taking tips to make my lawn transformation this fall.
Beautiful... I'm in process of doing this right now to my lawn (8,000 sq ft) right now Thank you for the videos, very helpful seeing the light at the end of the tunnel :o)
Good job! Looks like my lawn in the past, I was running the Lawnmaster golf machine. Always with a grass collector in the front not to spread any weed seeds in the lawn. Cheers from Sweden
Even your day one lawn is better than anything I’ve achieved. Mind you, the 40C temperatures (sorry, I don’t understood Fahrenheit) does a great job at killing lawns in this area!!! Excellent series of videos. Thanks for them.
Looks like a golf course absolutely beautiful, I have that greenworks haven't used it yet , looks like it does a great job ,you're without a doubt ,a master of lawns
Emaculant..... I'm inspired by you effort. I plan on training my ttf/rye mix to thrive at a low. I have to get me one of those real power. Great job my man!
Awesome job! Put a nice edge between that patio and grass man! It makes it look super clean and defines the grass even more. You wont get that slightly taller grass growing at the edge of the patio.
One of the nicest transformations I've seen on youtube great job. I see toward the end of the video you sprayed something down on your lawn what was it. Thanks for posting.
Hey bro now that you have the Allett Kensington, you should get the turf rake ie scarifier cartridge. You won't have to bend down to pick up stuff that will damage your reel mower.
Replaced my cylinder mower when the service and sharpen costs were nearly as much as a new mower. Went with a rorary one next with a rear roller, same stripes and easy to sharpen or replace the blade myself.
Roy Soper I have drum rollers behind both my riding Club Cedet mower and a Ferris fairway reel mower I got for taking it away. Re built the engine myself however had the knifes and blades done professionally for free by a golf course in exchange for being able to use it while theirs was in the shop. When they found out I had rotating dethaching heads for it as well they almost would not return it. We have a deal. They get to use my unit with dethaching heads in exchange for them showing up each late June with the 4 inch deep by 6 inch apart plug aerators. I rent a small tractor rotating broom and a skid steer to clean up the plugs. I top dress with a sand and top soil mix. Over seed and in late July early August my lawns are back in business. Oh this gets done every three years.
ShortCut Lawn I found your video while doing some research on doing exactly what you did in that video. Thinking about filming my DIY yard fixer upper. I'll start in about mid-September when the Temps are milder where I'm from. You gave me some great ideas with these vids. Cheers.
Astro turf looks nice...... Hold my beer lol. Looks stunning! It’s really paid off you putting the amount of time and effort into the fine details. Nice work 👍 Oh and I didn’t fast forward, it was too good to do that 😊
@@ShortCutLawn I didn't even know a lawn could look that good. But I'm in Texas so everyone's lawns here suck anyway so I'm just pre-emptively giving up.
Pedro Salinas-Ruiz having a good Lawn cools your home by 30 percent. My mother in-law has artificial turf we can’t even stand on it barefoot because it’s to hot. Having grass also elements pollution in the air. And if you have pets it’s even worse to clean the artificial turf. Just saying
Amazing series.. !! i have a bunch of weeds at the moment. do you think i can follow the same steps or use tenacity first and then dethatch followed by seeding.
Solid work cub fan 🤙two questions. How many times a month you use tenacity to keep weeds away? When is the best time to use fertilizer and how many applications per summer.
Thanks 👍🏼 So far I’ve only used Tenacity as a pre-emergent during seeding/overseeding, I’ve never used it as a regular post emergent weed control, When to fertilize; easy rule to follow is to put it down during the weekend of major US holidays...Memorial Day on may, 4th of July, and Labor Day in early september.
I've never seen a golf course type push mower.. until now. I thought...what is that, a Kirby for the lawn? 🤣 Kirby Scissor Wheels™ Naw, I laugh but my yard is bumpy so...
Awesome. Just done a dethatching and oversees and 4 weeks on its looking good but I found there are a few patches where the compost still is. I covered a thin layer all over and raked in but seed just didn't take. I'm hoping it will grown in but if not I'll have to seed those little patches. Nothing too difficult. Does it sound like I did anything wrong. Seed coverage was all over in both directions and watered twice a day. UK weather rains alot too so not sure if at times it got too much water. One question, when you level does it push all the seed around too or is that not an issue, I guess from the end shots probably not. Like your homemade leveler, gonna make one too. Sorry for the essay. 😀
Essay it was lol,.. sounds like you did everything alright, is it possible that the rain might have washed it out? Did you put down fertilizer when you overseeded? at times fertilizer could prevent the seeds from germinating if put down a little too heavy.
Ok You must be on The lawn Forum... how do you like this? Im thinking about getting it or the Allett. I have a Hybrid Bermuda and keep it low but need to step my game up
Following these 4 steps. I lived in Chicago too. Now I am in the surrounding suburbs. Can you apply tenacity 1st before overseeding? You overseeded before the pre-emergent.
hello, Congratulations on your wonderful work. I never tire of watching your videos. I am in the process of redoing my garden, and I will install an automatic watering system. Can you tell me what you use in a sprinkler (rain bird 1800?) And nozzles (HE-VAN?) Thx 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thank You 🙏🏼 I use 4” Rain Bird 1800 on all of my sprinkler heads. Up until recently i was using regular spray heads, I now upgraded all my nozzles to Hunter MP1000 👍🏼
ShortCut Lawn Thanks very much and sorry for my bad english 😅 Continue to make us dream !! pity that in France, you can't find kentucky bluegrass, otherwise I would have made my lawn with this product ..... I love it, it is really a carpet 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Beautiful lawn. What grass is it and what state? I ask, so I know if I can seed my yard with it. I have no lawn at all. I will be starting it this fall.
Awesome backyard layout! It looks so good!! Quick question... your planters by the wall/retaining walls ... are they held only by those blocks? Have they held alright during the years? I am thinking of doing about the same height but smaller depth with the wall or just building planters with those blocks at same height, however, everywhere I read it states that they will end up bowing for retaining wall since the water pressure will be too great. Since my idea wouldn't hold as much dirt as yours, i think its feasible but anyhow just trying to assess how have yours held so well instead of just coming down/bowing out?
Thanks for the compliment Salvador 👍🏼 if the height of our retaining walls are about the same then we don’t have to worry about water pressure, if you you’re holding back a steep hill then yes, water pressure would be a huge issue. Regardless, I still build it as if i was holding back a hill, 6-8 inches of compacted baserock for a solid base, i buried 1 row of blocks, added 6-8 inches of gravel behind the blocks for proper drainage. Mine is only 15 months, it held the heavy rainy season we had this past winter. It didn’t dip nor bowed from all the water.
@@ShortCutLawn great. It looks amazing I just fear it might now ... From all I've read but I really don't feel like doing rebar and things like that just for a 3-4 ft planter. My lot is completely flat so it wouldn't be holding any dirt other than what's inside. The gravel behind sounds good... Do you channel the gravel water somewhere away with a pipe or just have the gravel in place? Also I assume it's 1/4" gravel and not pea gravel correct? Thanks for your reply. Love both your layout and grass too
Sounds like you already did your homework 😁 again if i was holding back a hill a corrugated pipe would be needed to channel the water, since I’m not i just let gravity do its thing. Yes it’s 1/4 gravel. If built properly you shouldn’t worry about bowing.
Thanks Nick 👍🏼 people had commented the same way, but this is not about renovating an ugly, neglected, weed infested yard. This is about taking your lawn to the next level, having that uniform green lush lawn.
I have used a tow reel gang mowers and a pick up truck to pull it. I cover a 15 foot wide area in a single pass and that makes short work of really big property
Lol if I went around picking all that sized stuff out of my yard I would be 95 before I could get the mower out. Only thing that can save my yard currently is 4 dump trucks full of dirt and a Bob cat. It's so rut filled you couldn't walk across it with a cup of coffee. Michael dropped 17 trees on my property 9 on my house the rest on my yard which the tree company removed in the rain. like 6 months before that my septic tank and drain field needed to be redone and that left tank tracks through it. I dont even know how to begin to fix my yard lol.
I do both. Regretfully I should’ve used the catcher on this video, the long clippings from this first mow made the lawn look yellow for a while. Normally when I’m doing a quick buzz I don’t use a catcher.
I live in a townhouse development where I'm responsible for my lawn. The only separation between me and neighbors lawn is a s small row of rocks. Their lawn is a bed of weeds. I've started grass with seeds and sod several times but it gets taken over by weeds in a year. Am I fighting a losing battle?
Well if you’re an average homeowner that just water and mow occasionally I can see you losing to that weed farm next to you 😁. But if you mow often, don’t mind putting down some weed killer and some pre-emergent herbicide then you’ll have a chance of a winning 👍🏼
Hi My lawn isnt so flat and because my soil is difficult to deal with,its the hard type soil and as my grass tends to die in some places I find it hard to look after. I live in the United kingdom so the products you use would you know similar/equivalent here from the uk? Thanks
Hello. You started doing this in April. When is ok to start this job? Here in Croatia from Jun till August is temperature in average above 26°, and with this new climate changes there are more and more periods with 10-12 days without a drop of rain. And second question, do you always cut your lawn so low? Even through the hot summer days?
Hey Ante, spring and fall is always the best time to do these kind of work on a cool season grass, we don’t get hot summers where i live (average 22°c) so I can pretty much do this year round except dec-jan. Yes I keep it low all the time.

That is one of the nicest looking lawns off the golf course! Beautiful, I need to hide this from the wife.
lol 😄
Great series and results. Very informative for some of the things that I’ll need to tackle this spring. Thanks!
