    Doc visits the Zoysia lawn which really is ugly and in bad shape. He stresses that there is no reason to wait to apply various products (with one exception) Apply everything that the lawn needs and start the watering process.

    Tried visiting your lawn care guide, but it says I'm using a VPN - which I wasn't. I'm just from Sweden 😋 However, when I flicked my VPN on, it started working 😂😋 Oh well 😋
    Also, I'm wondering about your awesome hat, do you have a brand name for that? Would love to be at least half as stylish as you in my backyard!

    Doc I follow the zoysia lawn guide program and yard looks spectacular, I put down the PGF complete 16-0-8 (I have high phosphorus per soil test) every 4 to 5 weeks and Superjuice in between the granular feedings. Question is it better to put the Superjuice down early morning or late afternoon, does it need to be watered in or left on the leaf. Did not see this addressed in the Superjuice videos. I apologize if I missed it in the videos

    DOC!!! Please do an updated video on what grass seed is available to accommodate a hybrid, sod lawn. Arden 15, Princess etc is not available (As we all know). I clicked your link in your previous seed video that discusses Arden and the link on the video is directing folks to monaco and hollywood blend seeds which i feel might not be the right seed for a hybrid/sod bermuda lawn. i didn't notice until i received them and the seeds even look different.

    Doc, I just had 20 loads of dirt brought in and some grading done. I raked it all (about 10k sq feet) to loosen it some. I spread zenith zoysia and then covered it with Soil3 from Super Sod. Keeping it nice and wet. However, I did not prep the way I should’ve due to time. Should my zoysia still come in and then I can manage it the way I need to?

Applying both Pre-emergent, Post-emergent, Fertilizer (25-0-2), DuoCide, The Anderson's Fungus Control product (the name escapes me at the moment along with a 40 pound bag of HumiChar. I was so tired that I could barely move afterwards but it's finally starting to pay off. Neighbors and others have started to compliment me on how great my lawn looks.

      @@daironhernandezperez8667 I just started watching Doc's videos about 2-3 months ago myself. I have been in my house since 6/2002. My yard had reached the point where it was easily one of if not the worst yard in the subdivision. Front yard sodded Bermuda had turned into Weed Armageddon. The other parts of my yard is the Zeneth Zoysia that I sowed in 2008. It was thick enough that the weeds had not taken over like they had in my Bermuda. One part of my yard had pretty much been taken over by Moss that had grown over the winter. Hard to kill.
      I started by having a soil analysis to find out what caused the problem. Basically I had a VERY unhealthy lawn due in large part to my PH being so far off. Bermuda was 5.7 and everything else as 5.2-5.3. In order to correct all of the problems I purchased Lime from my local feed-n-seed store along with the hose end Spectricide and Image and started applying these products weekly until all of the lime outlined in my soil analysis. Then I started applying the weed killers. I still have a fair amount of Poa but that should soon die off as the weather starts warming up into the 80's.
      Dairon, if you have sod there's not much you can do until after your sod goes dormant but water and mow. In the meantime you can determine your square footage and have a soil analysis prepared, Once your lawn has gone dormant you can apply the lime and start working on your soil's PH, Next apply your pre-emergent. I had never applied pre-emergent or lime to my yard before this year. Lesson learned the hard way.

      I have ordered two bags of Barricade for my next application sometime around September or October. I had a massive and I mean massive weed problem in my yard since I had not had any pre-emergent applied to my yard in about 7-8 years.
      Yard is slowly recovering but its going to be a long hard and slow crawl to get it back to what it once used to be, Right now the main problem is this weird weather we are having, Little rain and most of the yards here in Commerce are simply not growing due to the strange Spring weather.
