You are right about the ounce of prevention. Preventive maintenance is the way to go! You go Pete ! I have been watching you a long time, my wife and I love you bro!
May the peace which transcends all comprehension cover you and all your loved ones like a blanket!
Love how excited and happy you were when you said "5 banger" haha, well done Pete, keep kicking butt.
an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. words to live by . can't wait to see new products.
Subscribed and hit the bell. I've learned so much from you my friend. I really appreciate you taking the time to produce content as this. I grew up in the country and we couldn't care less about our grass. Now that I'm competing with my neighbors here in the city (DFW) I need to ensure that my zoysia is top notch. Nevertheless, I appreciate you. Peace.
And I appreciate you as well!
ASMR video! Thanks Pete . Looking forward too your take my money sprayers!
Great job, Buddy!! Keep it coming.
Hey Buddy, I sent you an email that I really hope you get.
Thanks Pete
Howdy pete!... every always learning from your content .
Thank you for doing, what you love to do!!.
As far as the hand held boom. I put mine, that i purchased, away because of the spinning.
Anyway I can return it, with the refund to go toward your NEW boom invention.
I never used it because of the spinning action.
Pete u da man!
Love the boom variations..!!!
Can’t wait for these products
Great video we dealt with some fungus last year on our tall fescue luckily we were able to rid of it and we now prevent it from coming
What did you use? I think I have some in my yard as 3 weeks ago I had no brown patches in one area and now it's all over the place. As a relative newbie when it comes to lawn care, I'm trying to figure things out.
Cant wait, the three banger is a game changer. 😊
Appreciate every video.
Great video, my first thought came to mind when looking at the booms for the sprayer ia what would be the advantage of using one of those booms versus your spray buddy package and the 8-10 foot nozzle... thanks
I'm getting ready for a preventative app of Propiconazole within the next week.
Yard looks nice & healthy
glowing like a new penny!!!
Another great video Pete! Keep em coming! I have such a huge lawn renovation on my hands it's overwhelming but I can't wait to see it complete! Thanks for your videos they are truly inspiring and helpful!
Hey Pete - how's your brother and his family doing? I remember they were going through some rough waters around this time last year (or was it the year before).
Question about the fungicides: what's the rate for Azoxy and Prop? I have a 25k sq ft lawn and am not sure which size jugs to purchase.
Also - why do you use a mix of the two? Would just Prop or Azoxy work on its own?
Great video
Is using propoconizol and azoxystrobin together every time a good enough rotation so my lawn doesn’t get used to the formula? Or do you need to rotate with another fungicide next time? Thanks! I also have gci TTTF.
An inch of prevention is worth a pound of cure. This is so true.
Pete, prevention on warm season turf.
Just received my gci 1-0-1 and 0-0-25 and we got rain in the am so its getting sprayed today mixed with some rgs.
Awesome Pete. Love the boom attachment! What’s the price point around for them?
they will be affordable for sure. I havent actually built the price sheet on them yet but I can say they will not be expensive especially for what it is...
@@GCITurf let’s hope not? 🤔
Is it okay to just do the Azoxystrobin and Propiconazole to handle most cool season grass issue? You mentioned you don’t usually use the cleary’s and the one other. Thanks!
Yes. I usually don’t either
love it
Hey Pete, when adding fungicide or even hydretain halfway thru fill up in sprayer it’s extremely bubbly when adding 2nd half of water. Would you recommend filling up full way and then adding liquids then mixing?
Use this. A few small drops is all that’s needed. This bottle will last you a LONG time. gciturfacademy.com/collections/cool-season-weed-control/products/defoamer-select
@@GCITurf h÷
Hey Pete, will TTTF be in stock before the fall?. Also put my 1st app of Pro G down May 1st, I will do an app every 28 days till fall
Yes. It will
Hey Pete, I got the Nozzle Buddy love it, I spray 8ft wide and cover my 8200sqft with 4 gallon. Why the booms then? Just a question Sir.
So folks have options. Some people prefer a boom. That’s the only real reason…
Would love to buy the three nozzle 😊
Spray rig with hose on reel or walk behind boom sprayer? As someone starting out
oh man! you just wait within the next year I will have multiple variations of GCI manufactured spray boom equipment. Im starting off with a simple walk behind boom
just put down an app of eagle, the red thread is out of control here in CT
I was going to be proactive this year but man did fungus come early this year. I already applied eagle 20 , 2 applications. But of course The fungus was already on its corse. Now I dont know what to do next.
I really wanted to run the Next Bio stimulant package ahead if any fungus treatment. ?
Please make these booms affordable. At least the double boom one. Which really would be the one most used by home owners like myself with 1/4 acre or less.🙏
Define "affordable" what would be a price point that you would consider affordable? This will help in in pricing the product. Thanks!
@@GCITurf First off...holly molly Pete is talking to me. I very much respect you for everything you do and stand for. Ive been watching from the beginning! I've given it some thought and I really don't know what goes into the process of creating something to sell. Let alone getting it out to the public for a price point that helps you Pete make a profit worth your idea and hard work. So Pete in all honesty.I was just thinking a price that my wife wouldn't give me that look of "really?!?! Another toy for the yard" 😂😂😂. Which she would give me regardless of the price. I typed before I thought it over in my head. Bless you Pete! You are good people!!! 🙌
@@GCITurf Less than $125.00
@@BUDS228 rough math off the top of my head this should be real close
@@justinworksout64 you must have a awesome wife!
Grass factor says to not prevent. But to diagnose it correctly and treat it… so confusing
Some places like where Pete’s at it’s not a matter of if disease will show up it’s when so we have to come at this differently
If you have cool season grass with hot and humid weather you WILL get disease and you should do everything you can to prevent it. Especially with having a certain amount of fungicide group applications you can apply per year.... You can easily plan out a preventative program and not hit your limits... When you are stuck with the disease it is usually at the worst time of the year, you are using double the rate at the shortest interval, and is much harder to cure than prevent.
Matt is considerably more knowledgeable on this than i am... its like 1st grader vs einstein difference in brain power. LOL. I'm not even close. If he says do it that way then youre better off to listen to Matt. Nothing against matt, but I personally will keep doing it the same way i have been doing it almost 20 years because it works well for me.
@@Dsaubt ahh ok.. so Nebraska where I’m at get really humid 80%+ and 90+ degrees in the summer months. I’m guessing with my fescue it’s pretty much a guarantee too?
@@GCITurf gotcha. Yea it makes sense. Thanks Pete
I thought you didn’t mix calcium with anything for fear of clogging. Is this something you can do now with the new gci calcium?
humic and phosphorus are the 2 I say do not mix it with. A few micro blends it might not play well with either. Other than that it can be mixed with just about anything. I tell you spray it alone because I dont want to take any chances of someone mixing it and wasting the product. Wasting meaning mixing it with the wrong thing and it cant be sprayed.
@@GCITurf that’s good to know that it can mix with a few things but I’ve always taken your advice and mixed it alone. The only time I ever had a clogged sprayer was mixing GreeneEffect with my normal fungicide app of Azoxy and Prop, and I was too lazy to do a jar test. You only need to learn the hard way once.
Hey Pete I got an early start this year to try and prevent. Started in mid March and I still got hit with fungus under my trees. Used armada, propiconazol, azoxy and still got fungus I just can't win. Do droplets and how much water affect coverage? I'm using your first red nozzle with the Strom back sprayer.
I got fungus as well! I used liquid and granular fungicide and it’s getting better ❤️🩹
@@captainlarrynosleepfishing5350 I added a little granular and it seems to be helping. I don't feel the finer spray is getting down in the lawn maybe as well as it should.
@@PrincernPrince I’m using the red nozzle as well which is a teejet XRC which should be good for a foliar application. And I am using around .58 gallons per 1000 sq ft instead of the 1-2 gallon that the fungicides recommend. I seem to still get fungus too. Im wondering if a preventative application with low carrier volume should be watered in lightly so the fungicides can get to the roots and can be taken up into the leaf tissue. And if you are actively treating fungus that you can see, then increase carrier volume.
@@rickjames1246 Thanks I will try that
Hey mate, will you be able to ship to Australia with those backpack sprayers etc?
I wish I could mate. But we don’t. My apologies sir.
@@GCITurf oh man that sucks. That 3 boom looks incredible! All the best anyway!
Need to put a measuring wheel on that 5 nozzles to hold all that wieght looks good tho
I need the bigger spraying setup for sure. Went from 3k sqft yard to 22k sqft 😮 Takes forever to spray now haha
Wait before you buy something. Trust me on this. Spray Buddy is right around the corner!
@@GCITurf sounds great I’m excited for this! Filling up my backpack sprayer 5 times is a pain haha
Is the 5 nozzle boom available now for purchase? Can it be used with the Flowzone Monsoon?
Not yet. All the parts have been ordered. I’ll make. A video when they ready
Thank you. Can it be used with Flowzone Monsoon?
With fungicides I just worry about damaging the lawns own healthy biome. Is that a thing?
ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure
O2 YS - smaller quantities sold out? Can i just mix the other two ?
I’ll update the site now. We have plenty
6 "P's" of life!!
Prior Planning Prevents Poopy Poor Performance
Greatness
What's the mowing height on your TTTF?
3.5”
I would say... proper planning and planning prevents piss poor performance
When you mix, say 2 gallons for 2k, do you end up with 2 gallons? Or is it 2 gallons PLUS whatever you’re mixing in?
2 gallons should be the finnished solution thats water + products = 2 gallons
@@GCITurf makes sense. Thanks Pete! Appreciate the clarification.
Good morning Pete....the last few seasons since my reno I've always gone for the preventative approach but just recently Matt/Grass Factor says that's wrong and shouldn't be done to wait until it shows and treat accordingly????? Too much conflicting info out there for DIY
I treat preventatively and will always treat preventative. I know for sure if I don't I will get disease in my fescue and particularly in my perennial ryegrass. I'd go preventative all day.
Can't wait for the home version. Awesome job Pete.
Matt is considerably more knowledgeable on this than i am... its like 1st grader vs einstein difference in brain power. LOL. I'm not even close. If he says do it that way then youre better off to listen to Matt. Nothing against matt, but I personally will keep doing it the same way i have been doing it almost 20 years because it works well for me.
I treat preventatively as well. Haven’t seen fungus since I started using a combination of Strobe 2L and Propiconazole.
So frustrating… April was THREE INCHES of rain below normal here (Long Island), and we haven’t had much rain so far in may, and I’ve got spots of red thread in my lawn. I thought I had a bag of diseaseX, apparently I used it. Pouring all day, so tomorrow I’ll throw down. Grrrr
red threat is rampant here in CT due to mild winter, i use eagle fungicide for that and it works well
@@Bryanb28 thanks I’ll check it out. I only wish I had thought to do some prevention earlier, I just figured the lack of rain meant I didn’t need to! As soon as this rain stops I’ll spread my diseaseX and ironically water it in 😇
I’m the same way in northeast. We haven’t had much rain at all but yet my yard is full of red thread… not sure how this is possible with lack of moisture….
@@gtpro700 lesson learned for next year!
@@BenNawrath i spoke with my fert supply company and he told me red thread and grubs were aleady a concern bc of the mild winter, thats why im doing my eagle app now to try and get ahead of the red thread
will the new spray buddy work alongside our backpack sprayers or is it self-contained sprayer?
It’s a dedicated spray system by itself
@@GCITurf well dang just bought a typhoon too
Looking forward to the spray booms. Will these work with the strom?
Yes sir it will
Please respond to this message when you release those spray nozzles.
I’ll make a video on them
Geez Pete, this was like a chemistry class vid. Mixing up the goodies for the yard. And the grass thanks you!👍
So you just spray and let it sit on the leaf tissue to absorb? I thought these products need to be watered in?
Foliar application is many cases.
@GCITurf Thanks for the reply Pete! So is that the case with both preventative and curative applications?
@@Sir_Mack yes
@GCITurf well I'll be damned!
@@Sir_Mack yeah folks think EVERYTHING needs to be watered in. That’s simply not true
Those multi nozzles are AWESOME! You need to walk backwards so it doesn’t get on your feet. Haha
Easy to prevent in usa, but here in canada we don't have Access to all the chemicals you guys use... All of these are illegal lol
2nd😊
1st 😂
