Kyle, this is by far the best all in one video you have done for Fall renovation. Thanks for taking your valuable time to knock this one out of the park!!
Hey Kyle, another great video. Did my first over seed last fall using the steps you mentioned. I was like a proud Papa when it worked and filled in! The toughest part is deciding how long to wait before you mow. Fertilizer and water makes the existing grass grow (fast) too.
Thanks for the comment, Jonny! I’m glad to hear about your success. You’re right, I struggle with waiting long enough before mowing after an overseed. It’s ideal to wait 2 weeks before mowing after your overseed. Im way too impatient for that!
Perennial Rye is soooo dang pretty. Best looking lawn. Unfortunately, I am in Lexington, NC and Rye (naturally, talking about Perennial Rye) just does not go so well. Great video. Lots of people overlook taking care of the existing weeds before doing anything else. For the third time.....job well done!
This fall I'm trying out that chicken doo doo that you talked about in another video. Another pointer that I would add is to be mindful of the prodiamine seeding wait time for anyone that put down prodiamine as a crabgrass preventer (especially if it was applied later in the spring as in my case). The prodiamine product I used (HJ Prodiamine) has a pretty long seeding wait time.
Great tips Kyle! I'm hoping to dethatch my lawn this weekend. Time has gotten the best of me now that golf season is in full swing and school is back in session
What i do is....id mix up some granula iron and water(make sure the concentration is quite strong)...add on some baby shampoo(surfactant) and mix up well in a sprayer! This gets rid off all broadleaf weeds...and even clover! It does not damage the grass(obviously the grass in the sprayed area gets a bit darker for a week or two)! Possibly the cheapest weedkiller you can have , and it works 👍
So you can just chuck the seed down? Won't the birds just eat all the seeds? You don't need to roll it in or put a thin layer of soil on top or anything?
The idea for this video was to give a general idea of the timing of these different steps in the fall. You are right, covering your seed will give you better result.
These things r optional the most important thing to have soil to seed contact,I reseed all the time without doing all this n I do have germination,some of this Utub guys ll let u waste your energy
Thank you for an very informative video! I’m a new homeowner and I’m struggling with my new sod. It was laid out late June/22, by August/22 I had weeds everywhere - primarily crabgrass and nutsedge weed. I been plucking it out but it’s spreading like fire. Also, when i pull it out, some of my new sod comes out with it. I’m devastated! What would be your recommendations as fall care so I would have a nice lawn next year? I’ve fertilized once, planning on doing once again soon. Can I aerate and Oversee a new lawn? My husband wanted to detach rake but I think this would be too stressful for a new grass. Please help!! Thank you.
Hi Elaine! I’m sorry to hear about the issues you’re having with your new lawn. I wouldn’t aerate or overseed your new sod. You just need to keep up with watering it and build up its roots by fertilizing. Chick N Poo, or Coop Poop are great fertilizers for new sod. For the weeds, you can use a screwdriver and try to stay on top of pulling the weeds that pop up. Good luck to you!
Sir, trying to win the Yard of the Fall trophy out here. The BLUF, currently I have centepide in Columbia, SC. I was planning to overseed with Raygrass but I read that Centepide with Raygrass will create a lot of problems. Another article advises oversees with Fescue for the fall/winter to keep the green lawn going thru the season. Do you have any advice/recommendations?
Hey Kyle, just did a renovation following all of your tips and tricks. Only a week in and things are looking mint already. Question for you. I know you spoonfeed through the fall and in the past you have used Scotts Green Max, which I plan on using. If you do a fall overseed, do you still do a high nitrogen spoonfeed after certain amount of time? If so, how long do you wait?
Hey Taylor! Thanks for the comment. I’m glad to hear things are going well. It’s best to wait at least four weeks after overseeding to use a fast acting nitrogen fertilizer like Scott’s Green Max for your spoon feeding.
Hi sorry if this is a dumb question but after blanket applying the weed killer , do I mow ? Pick by hand ? Or rake the lawn and throw away the dead weed. I want to make sure I’m ready for detaching. Thank you in advance
@@lakehouselawncare1755 thank you so much for your reply! I’m starting this weekend and following your step by step guide ! Very very helpful video to me that knows 0 about lawn care
Thanks again for the tips in this video Kyle. Your lawn is looking good. Mine could've been better, if it weren't for that mole that planted itself in my yard. Hello again from across Lake MI.
Putting top soil on the seed is not mandatory for a successful result? I also love rye grass! It is so incredibly dark and green compared to the other grass types in my lawn.
Hey Robbie. Yes, I’ll apply chickn Poo in October as my last application. I like Scott’s green max as my fast acting nitrogen in September. amzn.to/3e8YOu7
For beginners and beginners only, this is way too much and every notion is So dependable on specifics that you can't compile in a single video. For advanced lawn home owners...this is laughable...
Hey Milen, my goal for this video was to give everyone an idea of the timing and sequence of events to get the best possible lawn this fall. I’ll be making videos with specific details for each step mentioned.
@@lakehouselawncare1755 again, let's put one ahead. You DON'T overseed KBG. Not with KBG. Your PRG will need this probably every year, but video can not be made assuming all lawns are sissy grass :)
I'm virtually in the same vicinity as you and trying to figure out how you get up to 3lbs in the fall with .5 N every couple weeks. I start up fertilizing again late Aug but I'm putting. 6 N every 2-3 weeks and then blasting it with .92 N of Green Max one last time around Halloween but by that time we've almost had our first frost. I'm around 3.5 N by then but I also have KBG which is notorious for needed more N. It's very important to get some potassium in the fall too.
Kyle, this is by far the best all in one video you have done for Fall renovation. Thanks for taking your valuable time to knock this one out of the park!!
Thanks so much, Keith! I really appreciate it. I had a good time making this video!

The Chick-N-Poo didn't really do anything for me other than stink up my car this early summer. It's very dusty. Milorganite is better.
Thanks for the comment, DT! Good point about the prodiamine. I was really happy with the ChicknPoo and I’ll be doing a dormant feed again this year.
@Ross oh no! 💩 I’ve had good results with both.
Very nice video I’ll be over seeding here soon. Thanks for such great video and advice can’t wait to start my project
Thank you for the kind words and good luck on your lawn project!
Always good content Kyle!! Turf is looking robust and healthy sir well done 👍

So good Kyle. Seriously man. You nailed each point and explain it so well. You’re a gifted speaker and make it so interesting. Great stuff man !
You don’t know how much I appreciated you, Scott! 👊🏼 Cheers my friend!

Where do you get your seed?
I live in an area where the dirt is very sandy. What do you recommend
Love it! Great video!

You can just mow as usual. The weed killer will slowly kill the weeds and they will shrivel up, no need to take them up.
@@lakehouselawncare1755 thank you so much for your reply! I’m starting this weekend and following your step by step guide ! Very very helpful video to me that knows 0 about lawn care
Thanks for this video bro I just place my order for the seed
Thanks for the comment and good luck with your overseed!
I didn't quite catch how to evenly spread the fertilizer on the lawn. Can you explain a little further please or give tips on how you do it?
Hey Durneel. Here’s my last video where I explain the process. ruclips.net/video/mZHwXkz3-Ug/видео.html
Do you have a sprinkler system in your backyard very educational video
Thank you, Billy! Yes I do have in ground irrigation that pumps water out of the lake.
Down here in Socal August and September are the hottest months of the year 😪We have like a 6 month long summer
You have the best climate! I’m jealous 10 months of the year.
After over seeding do you recommend putting down top dressing ? What type do you recommend? Thanx
It isn’t essential but top dressing with compost is a great way to improve the health of your soil. Thanks for the watching!
@@lakehouselawncare1755 thanx for the info. New to your channel and learning a lot from you. Your lawn looks awesome
Thanks again for the tips in this video Kyle. Your lawn is looking good. Mine could've been better, if it weren't for that mole that planted itself in my yard. Hello again from across Lake MI.
Thank you, my friend! Sorry to hear about that mole. They can wreak havoc for sure. Best of luck to you and thanks for watching!
Putting top soil on the seed is not mandatory for a successful result?
I also love rye grass! It is so incredibly dark and green compared to the other grass types in my lawn.
Topsoil can sometimes come with lot of weed seeds and that’s why I don’t typically put it over my seed.
@@lakehouselawncare1755 thank you. saves me a lot of work and money :D
Ma. Still mid 80s now and basically through labor day . Just been brutal summer. With that said shooting to aerate no later than September 17h
Yeah it has warmed up lately. The next few weeks are ideal for aerating to give it time to bounce back before cold weather.
good stuff
Great video 👍🇺🇸😎
Thank you!
Do you use chick n poo for the fall or a different granular nitrogen? If you have another granular can you add the link please?
Hey Robbie. Yes, I’ll apply chickn Poo in October as my last application. I like Scott’s green max as my fast acting nitrogen in September. amzn.to/3e8YOu7
@@lakehouselawncare1755 thank you! That's helpful.

Thanks, brother! You’re overdue for another slice of deep dish on the patio.
@@lakehouselawncare1755 fall coming, football in the air, pizza in hand, boat ride... yea hey im hopin in the truck!
First Striperman
Yeah, buddy!!
Nothing about the soil?
I will be enriching the soil with Chick N Poo just like last year. Thanks is for the comment, Ice man!
I followed until you mentioned the nitrogen that got too complicated
Well thanks for the comment! I’ll try not to lose you next time.
Don’t use poison. We get enough of that in our lifes.
I actually don’t use any pesticides on my lawn. I pull everything by hand.
@@lakehouselawncare1755 that’s good to hear! I’m doing the same, don’t have to go to the gym 💪

You’re right about the potassium! Good point, Ross. Sounds like you have a great plan for the fall!
