    I like that 46-0-0. I can see the light at the end of the tunnel on ths project. especially with the help of the irrigation system. A fun project. Will be following this. Man that is a sweet machine.

  • @ColonelK0rn1
    @ColonelK0rn1 6 лет назад +1

    I can't help but to grin when you were talking about the Ventrac. It's a cool machine, very versatile. I wish you would have taken an aerial shot of you spraying the "double-dark" application of GCF products. I've done some heavy apps on mine and my grass was still dark 3 days later. I credit all of the NEX-T products for the success that I had when I had a 60% winter kill of my bermuda renovation last year.

    • @GCITurf
      @GCITurf  6 лет назад

      ColonelK0rn sweet. What’s a double dark application? Is that code for something?

    • @ColonelK0rn1
      @ColonelK0rn1 6 лет назад

      No, it was actually a phrase that Allyn Hane coined for doing a heavy application of Humic 12 on his lawn, which he thought he originated, but he actually heard it from Jake The Lawn Kid years prior. In May, my heavy app was: AIR-8 - 6 oz/M, Humic 12 - 12 oz/M, RGS - 6 oz/M, GreenePunch - 16 oz/M and FEature (for iron) at 2oz/M. My yard was dark from the humic, then held beautiful green for a month. I've been doing bi-weekly AIR-8, Humic 12 and RGS applications, but not at that heavy rate. That was just to kick the green-up into overdrive. It worked like a charm. I'll send you some pictures via email.

    Oh man the pun ... "a butt load of Milorganite" this pun was brought to you by the people of Milwaukee, WI and Pete from GCI turf. Love this content keep it up! I can't wait to see how the rehab goes, I just went and bought my first 2 bags of Milorganite today and put it down after manually thatching and having my 6 year old help me cleanup the thatch. Too bad the fescue didn't work out because I love good tall fescue or kentucky bluegrass.

    for a normal cool season lawn do you recommend aerating after applying fert & over-seed in the fall? or doing it before? maybe you talk about it in your cool season academy program - which I'm thinking I'm going to join

    That's a "butt load of Milorganite!" Just imagine putting that down on that soccer field by hand with a manual spreader. :-O
    Pete, I may not own a lawn care company or have a huge yard that could "justify" having the fancier equipment to take care of the yard, but it never hurts to dream. :-)

    Wow , 1,000 lbs of milo & 150 lbs of 46-0-0 on 50,000 sqft. That was 2.69 lbs of N per 1,000 sqft.
    Why not just apply Screaming Green 16-2-3?

    • @Mikebike68
      @Mikebike68 6 лет назад +1

      Mr Efficiency because of the iron content? Because it’s an organic fertilizer vs a synthetic
      Absorbs differently

  • @JB-wu8zl
    @JB-wu8zl 6 лет назад

    If you could only use one fertilizer, would you use Milorganite, GreenePunch(by NEXT), or RGS(also by NEXT)?

    • @GCITurf
      @GCITurf  6 лет назад

      RGS is not fertilizer. It would depend if you were set up to spray or not. If so use the 18-0-1 if not use the milo

  • @ronhart4166
    @ronhart4166 6 лет назад +1

    I bet you could have thatched those plugs right out of the ground after the break up !! Are you going to be cutting the field also. I would be curious about your cutting height in your area. I can not seem to get Bermuda any shorter then 3". The sun seems to burn the grass any shorter :( Florida)

    • @Doober80
      @Doober80 6 лет назад

      I believe he said he was going to put some Tribute Total on it. The bermuda will smother it with its lateral growth and cutting it short will eventually take care of most of it.

    • @ryeguy01
      @ryeguy01 6 лет назад

    Still waiting for someone to make a 10-10-10 "balanced" fertilizer with all the macro's and micro's in it. Tired of all these so called fertilizers that only have say two ingredients. Your lawn is missing out on a lot of other nutrients.
