Neil… With Messick’s being an EX Mark dealer, a video with a their stand on spreader/sprayer would be great to see (they are a great piece of equipment)!!! A video spraying your new yard 4-6 weeks after germination and with good soil moisture with a combination product that includes Quinclorac (kills grassy weeds) and a three way product to kill Broadleaf weeds. Then use the spreader to put down some starter fertilizer to promote the desirable grasses
@@MessicksEquip .. I like that call .. Probably a little safer on newer turf .. A lot of guys will throw it in the hydroseeder when they seed .. Tenacity will turn your weeds white .. We use the product on many jobs
Nice job Neil it really turned out great. That’s a ton of land and a ton of seed to have to always keep an eye on in the early months of fresh seed. Looks like your doing a great Job keeping it damp in such a hot/dry time of the year. I always wanted to buy a soil compactor.
So neil are you planning on building that new building with that bamboo forest you have there….. bamboo is cool but its invasive give it time and that brand new gas is going to be nothing but bamboo
Great update, Here in Texas we have only one choice for grass and that is sod. None of the turf varieties grow from seed. The turf bermuda is sterile so won't grow from seed and St Augustine (AKA crab grass) doesn't really grow from seed and the other is Zoysia which is only available in sod form as well. Unfortunately it's very hard to grow KBG here.
"Shouldn't have waited until June..." And "Best to do in early spring..." June is very early spring, ever other year snow is still on the ground come June 1... what am I not getting?
Ah, didn't fully realise you were southerners- took me a second to find out you were in PA- even tho it's outright stated in some of your videos. Thanks for the clarification, and for the content you put out
The next videos for your lawn could be a lime/fertilizer spreader after your soil tests. Get the Ph right and a lot of the chemicals won’t be needed. Then in a year or two demonstration of the aerators would be cool. I like the way you do real world applications for demonstrating equipment.
I think it’s time Messicks released a “Messicks a helping hand with your land” ringtone
Because of you I just got home from ordering my Kubota L3560.

I need some advice like this. Planning on trying tenacity in about a month.

That's our Neil, keeping it real! Wonderful conclusion to the project! 👍
Well done!!
Thanks Neil. Nice to see the results of all the work.

Very informative Neil.
Best intro on RUclips
It looks great. I wouldn't bother trying to fix the lawn next to the building, put patio blocks to run the mower deck to and eliminate trimming.
Never done a new lot like this, great information and everything came out great neil 👍
Nice looking bamboo!
It's far better to have a totally GREEN Lawn than one that has only the finest grass and no weeds.
Nice job. And great presentation 👏
I would like to see the rest of the project
Yes it was good to see an end result.... thanks ... also good to see your struggling like the rest of us do...great idea for the shed...
Great job brother. Band of Brothers and Sisters 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

I love the bamboo. I just mow over the chutes when it tried to spread.

Is there a roof over your deck? If not how do you keep the equipment and stuff under it dry?
The underside has sheet metal that pipes into a gutter.
Why no landplane and what seed mix?
I don't know about anyone else, but all I see is weeds. Beautiful property though.
Out off all the equipment you had to used how much would it had cost to hire it all ?
Probably 6-8k to hire it out.
"Shouldn't have waited until June..."
And
"Best to do in early spring..."
June is very early spring, ever other year snow is still on the ground come June 1... what am I not getting?
By the end of June here we have 90 degree days.

untreated looks better.
If only we got a proper lawn done on our land. Would have been nice.
