The Lawn Care Nut I love how on point and also entertaining your videos are. We just moved into a new house a couple of months ago and I just spent a full morning with my Father In Law troubleshooting our sprinkler system. The tape measure visual was very helpful!
Finally someone who explained this in precise detail. I’ve watched multiple videos looking for this answer and they just assume we are professional landscapers and rush through it without the finer details. Thanks.
This vid was like perfect timing for me. I just moved from Mississippi back up to Indiana and yesterday turned on the irrigation system and (hopefully) found and dug out all the buried heads and discovered a rotating Rain Bird 5000 that's not rotating and another fan spray style that must be clogged since it pops up but doesn't spray. Thanks for all the tips through the years. I look forward to dominating here as I have in my past two homes with your helpful vids.
rain birds are awesome sprinklers in my opinion, i work for a landscaping company and 9 times out of 10 when i find and have to fix a broken rotatory head is some other brand (orbits, hunter, K2..ect) just from my experience. on to the point, when i find a rain bird that's not spinning like it should, i always try and spin the head manually while it's active. over the winter/off season, they get gummed up and some times just need to be spun to remind them to spin correctly. ill restart the zone/valve a few times and check if it spins again or if it is really broken. cheers and best of luck dominating
Ricky McGrath, I'm with you. I've tried just about every brand/type of sprinkler head and nozzle combo. So far, the Hunter PRS head with MP Rotator has been the best.
David Crawford they are! Rainbird has some similar nozzles. It takes a little getting used to though. The lower flow rates requires longer run times. Gives a little anxiety when you nearly double your run times.
I went with K-RAIN Rotors too. "For the price and availability" these are the best residential heads around. I have has them running for over 2 years with zero stoppages. Highly recommended.
I used to be afraid of sprinklers but then I manned up and dug one up and realized it was super easy. I almost called a company to come fix one for me hehe glad I didn't!
While it might not look good at first, I take the trimmer and form a bowl shape around the sprinkler heads, eventually the grass grows back but the ground will be slightly lower leaving the the heads unobstructed.
what I usually do every spring is give each sprinkler head a shot of Roundup, it kills the grass growing on top and just around it. It really helps to keep them clear,.
I have changed all my heads to Hunter MP Rotator heads in the main areas and Hunter Strip Spray nozzles in the easements and parkways. My lawn has never looked this good! Lower flow rates, larger droplet sizes, better wind resistance and less run off!
The only thing I wished you would have acknowledged in the tutorial. Is the sch.80 riser you used. I would rather people know that it is better to use a flex or poly riser if a commercial mower or riding mower is being used on your lawn. I go to countless lawn calls for broken pipes or risers a year that could be preventive by using an alternative riser. Love seeing how your revamping your Florida lawn. I am a landscaper over here in Polk county. Love the videos :)
Hi Allyn I'm in the UK and I have been watching your videos for around a year now. Thanks for all the tips my lawn is looking great now. I would say it's one of the best on my street. If you want to see a pic let me know.
I plan of replacing some of my 4 inch pop ups with a different model, some of them are already sunk down and need to be raised up about 2 inches, since I grow my grass long anyway can I just replace the 4 inch pop up with 6 inch then I won’t have to raise them up correct
Hi - thanks for the helpful video. Where’s the video for the k1 smart set sprinkler that you mentioned....please if you’ve already uploaded can you share the link. Thanks!
Have you looked into the Hunter or Toro rotator nozzles? these may help with your coverage if have to many heads per zone. The gpm is less then rotors and you can get them up to a 35ft radius. you will need to increase your run time per zone.
Switch your heads to spray heads 1/2 inlets (just like you wanted) with Hunter MP nozzles will save you water and give you the coverage you need. For best results stay @ 40 psi at the head use Pros04 or pros06 If u have more than 40 psi use a psi regulated spray head. Love your videos
I made myself a great tool for trimming around sprinkler heads. Just a 6 inch length of 4" electrical conduit.. I cut teeth on the end and attached a tee handle to it.. Slip it over the head and rotate it back and forth to cut the grass thach matted around the head. Works great.. However you can't do it with the water running, unless you want to get soaked. I just place locating markers in the lawn to find them.
one doesn't have to use Teflon tape to prevent leaks on joints? im getting ready to replace one of mine and just wondering if tape would help on the threads for not leaking??
Will try..I envision myself making several trips to HD tring to get the right risers/adapters. Thanks 👍. 4"riser 7"ish sprink cannister. 8:117:18 pop 1in above cut line
I need a little of advice from really anyone on here. I just got back home from a deployment and my lawn care while I was gone wasn't the best I have a couple of areas in my lawn that got killed by a weed killer and then invaded by weeds and pretty much settling in pretty solid. I'm new to caring for my own lawn so I'm looking for advice to how I should start the recovering process. Should I cut it out and lay sod, spray the weeds and lay seeds? I'm in west Florida and have centipede grass. Any advice from anyone would be awesome thank you in advance and btw I love this channel.
Hi LCN What are your thoughts about the difference between bar style mower blades and disc style "swing back" blades. Here we only have the disc style and I was curious about the pros and cons.
I know you like the K1 but I always use Orbit (aka) Hunter PGP. The Orbit head is exactly the same as the Hunter PGP head but it is half the price as a Hunter PGP head. Great coverage results and you can also change the dispersion pattern with different inserts into the head. Once you choose which dispersion pattern you need you can raise or lower the little screw to add more dispersion if needed. I totally agree with raising the heads though because SA loves to dominate sprinkler heads when it grows at 3.5 to 4.0 inches tall. Keep up the great work.
Looks good. For us in snow climates, we like to keep them a little lower - otherwise they get nailed by the snow blower in the winter, or the City grader if it's close to the road.
Thanks for the great video. I have old Toro 700 heads and they only pop up 3.5" and I mow at 4-1/4" So even after a fresh mow they aren't clearing the grass. I was going to raise them like you did, but many claim that the top of the sprinkler head should be even with the ground or they will get damaged by the lawnmower. Have you had any issues with that?
So I've been thatching my lawn and I let my grass go 3 days without mowing and it's leaving grass buildup behind guess a have to mow every two days, any way what can I do about the grass build up left by my wheels now ? Also how often should I clean my mower ?
My previous lawn was wet all day in super dry and 90-100 degree temperatures but my current lawn/soil dries out instantly, and the lawn is in low temperatures and humid environment?? Is there a specific product or soil I should add to the lawn to keep the soil moist without constant watering? And LNC, how much would you charge to mow my lawn??
Usually you'd need to add some more sprays to equal the coverage of a rotor. How are you getting the correct coverage after replacing the rotor heads with sprays? Rotors will need to run longer, but you can replace a whole section of spray heads with a couple of rotors.
I still have rotars, they are just 1/2" now instead of the 3/4" that were there. I've found this increases the pressure at all heads and gives me better overall coverage
Hello again, well I went back and watched all your videos that had anything to do with my questions of where do I start. I just wanted to say thanks this old lady has a goal and direction also a small amount of knowledge lol. Now it's time to thrower-down!!! I just love saying that I laugh everytime. Have a great day.
Thank you, and nice shirt. How can one determine how many heads are on the system or zone? Some must be buried in my lawn-there are 2 areas with no coverage at all. The guy we bought the house from had a beautiful lawn.
I have replaced all of my hunter sprinklers over the last10 years I have lived in my current home. I have added 5-6 concrete donuts stacked on top of each to each sprinkler location. This way when I have to adjust or raise the position I can use wooden shims and for replacing I simply remove the donuts and I have a hole to the bottom of the sprinkler. I also keep my sprinkler heads trimmed clean so the pop up is never obstructed. I have never received a good reason why my irrigation guy does not like the donuts but I think it is simply an aesthetics thing.
They are tearing up the grass in Harrsion Ranch. It is bad. Big sections of turf dug up. Glad they have not messed with your yard. They have not messed with mine either but I saw them in my neighborhood.
Why not the Rain Bird high efficiency rotary nozzles? Sure it takes forever to water, but you're wasting less water due to the heavy water drop stream.
MILLS CHRISTOPHE early morning is ideal. Run times depend on how much water your sprinkler puts down. You want between 1-1.5" per week. You'll have to test your sprinklers to calculate the recommended run times.
Definitely not PM, run the risk of mold and disease in your lawn. LCN has a video from way back on how to test your sprinkler heads to determine how much they put out and that in turns tells you the run time of your system.
AM. As for how long. Do some homework by setting out a few rain gauges. Turn on the zone for say 15 mins. Measure how much then times that to get about 1/2 of watering at a time.
stroking of the pelican statue... 😉. wouldn't you want the head to be flush with the ground so it isn't hit by equipment? seems a better plan would be to install a 6" popup?
The shovel you were using is called a "sharpshooter". Love em for your application and breaking up dirt if you're digging a hole and then use a round point shovel to scoop out the broken up dirt 👍🏽
Main difference is K1 is 1/2" inlet with 4" popup while K2 has 3/4" inlet with a 5" popup. I'm using mostly K2 heads mainly to clear the long blades of my St. Augustine here in FL.
LMAO, you discussing the pelican and comments you had and you got a drone? I am looking forward to an arrival view of your stripes in future videos. Great video
Are you not supposed to put some tape or paste on the threads? Also why didn't you show the new heads running? Also no video ever came showing how to adjust it?
Hunter PGP is the way to go for rotors! PGP has low angle nozzles that will give superior coverage and it will shoot from 29 to 50 feet depending on the nozzle you choose.
Going through this now as well. I picked the orbit Saturn III as my go to. It was the only 1/2 inch Home Depot by me carries that has reasonable range and is comparable in size as the last ones for easy drop in. Excellent video as usual sir, thank you.
I cant wait for the unveiling of the product. My guess is that its the Toro multi tool similar to the troy-bilt multi tool. If not then you have a lot of trimmers/edgers
The one thing I don't like about K-Rain compared to RainBird and Orbit is their "hiss" when running is louder than the other brands but I do like the price over the RB and O.
Your push mower will work fine, but if the head is that far above grade, a heavy mower may eventually cause break at the connection when it’s run over repeatedly.
Great Video. I would also recommend using a swing pipe assembly that moves the rotor up and down so it is easier to set the desired height and if some settling does occur you can raise it up no problem also prevents from breaking if run over since it is flexible
The Lawn Care Nut I love how on point and also entertaining your videos are. We just moved into a new house a couple of months ago and I just spent a full morning with my Father In Law troubleshooting our sprinkler system. The tape measure visual was very helpful!
great job! wonder wat he thinks about rainbird vs mp hunter?also, what is that white dust around sprinkler at end?
It's sand.
Thanks for these videos! What is the sandy looking mixture around your new rotor head?
I have a full Bermuda lawn and I'm starting to see single blades of crabgrass. how do you overcome this?
Finally someone who explained this in precise detail.
I’ve watched multiple videos looking for this answer and they just assume we are professional landscapers and rush through it without the finer details. Thanks.
This vid was like perfect timing for me. I just moved from Mississippi back up to Indiana and yesterday turned on the irrigation system and (hopefully) found and dug out all the buried heads and discovered a rotating Rain Bird 5000 that's not rotating and another fan spray style that must be clogged since it pops up but doesn't spray.

hey Grass daddy - I love your channel!! Easy to understand, and well you just a typical dad with the love for grass like I do. (not expert)
@@dieselxdan thanks!
What did you put down around your replaced sprinkler head? Is it just sand?
Did you ever make the video explaining how to set it?
While it might not look good at first, I take the trimmer and form a bowl shape around the sprinkler heads, eventually the grass grows back but the ground will be slightly lower leaving the the heads unobstructed.
what I usually do every spring is give each sprinkler head a shot of Roundup, it kills the grass growing on top and just around it. It really helps to keep them clear,.
can u please explain how you finished packing it in. did you put sand?
yes I just burried it with white sand. I like the look
The Lawn Care Nut will sod grow on Rocky clay soil
The Lawn Care Nut you should try hunter pgp 6inch they have been built the same for 20 years and have a great warranty and are also fully adjustable
The Lawn Care Nut Does the white sand prevent runners from growing towards the sprinkler?
I have changed all my heads to Hunter MP Rotator heads in the main areas and Hunter Strip Spray nozzles in the easements and parkways. My lawn has never looked this good! Lower flow rates, larger droplet sizes, better wind resistance and less run off!
I have the hunter mp800 series, and I love them. Great coverage and low GPM as you said.

His name is Allyn
Because of you my memorial day and 4th of July are my domination days!
Can I ask where you got the elbow. I cannot find that any where?????
whats that white powder around the new sprinkler head?
What was around the sprinkler head once you replaced it?
I plan of replacing some of my 4 inch pop ups with a different model, some of them are already sunk down and need to be raised up about 2 inches, since I grow my grass long anyway can I just replace the 4 inch pop up with 6 inch then I won’t have to raise them up correct

how can i find out the psi rate?
@@ashfamilyvideos Nozzle performance rates vs PSI can be found at any manufacturer website.
What was that white stuff around the rim of the sprinkler head once you were done???
What was the white stuff you had surrounding the sprinkler head after installing it? Sand? If so why?
The white sand adds 'thrower down' points?
I go one step further I surround the sprinkler head in with a PVC pipe to protect it from grass growing around it and makes it easier to remove.
kilxler Well la di friggin da!!!!
Brilliant idea! I’ll give that a try while I fix my ugly lawn this season.
That drone footage was dope! I enjoyed it a lot.

Beach sand around the heads when finished? St Augustine loves sand but I've never seen this. What up?
I do it just because I like the look. Stands out over what everyone else has.
You don't wrap the riser threads with teflon tape?
Hello Sir, I like the idea of the k1 or k2 if I change two only, do I have to change all of them there's 8 heads total?
I need a little of advice from really anyone on here.

hey Allen can you do a video where you show us how to stripe St Augustine grass with a striper?
was that concrete at the end?
I know you like the K1 but I always use Orbit (aka) Hunter PGP. The Orbit head is exactly the same as the Hunter PGP head but it is half the price as a Hunter PGP head.

What is that donut around the sprinkler head? I have never seen that before.
You said you'd do a video on how to adjust these, but I'm not seeing it. Did you do it?
I'm looking for the adjustment vid too!
Looks good. For us in snow climates, we like to keep them a little lower - otherwise they get nailed by the snow blower in the winter, or the City grader if it's close to the road.
Might be a weird thing to say, but I always love the music in your videos. Oh yeah, the lawn care stuff is good too. :)

Like your videos!! Did you put sand or something white around your sprinkler head at the end?
when you overseed what seed do you use, my lawn has been thinning out and i need to get it back into decent shape
Swing pipe over risers anyday. We know it's not needed, but $1 dollar

Should I worry about water freezing and bursting underground lines in Chicago winters?
yes they need to be cleared out with a compressor.
hi LCN can you provide me with a link to those donut things around your sprinklers? never seen those before.
just go to the irrigation section at HD or Lowe's - they are only like $2 each or less
what was that donut thing, around the sprinkler?
Patrick Benvenuto it's actually called a donut. helps protect the sprinkler. you can get in plastic, metal or concrete.
Matt Aggie cool, thanks
FYI, your link to the riser takes me to an Amazon page for "Orbit Biggles Collar for Dogs and Puppies"

LCN - what time of day do you water your lawn? AM or PM? And how many minutes per zone? Thxs
MILLS CHRISTOPHE early morning is ideal. Run times depend on how much water your sprinkler puts down. You want between 1-1.5" per week. You'll have to test your sprinklers to calculate the recommended run times.

Ricky Mcgrath Ok AM. But what time specifically? Should I start watering 4am, 6am, 8am? I have 6 zones water 30 min per zone = 3hrs.
Hotrod Hog Ok AM gotcha... But I was thinking PM more like afternoons... 🤙🏻
AM. As for how long. Do some homework by setting out a few rain gauges. Turn on the zone for say 15 mins. Measure how much then times that to get about 1/2 of watering at a time.
stroking of the pelican statue...
😉.
wouldn't you want the head to be flush with the ground so it isn't hit by equipment?
seems a better plan would be to install a 6" popup?
The shovel you were using is called a "sharpshooter". Love em for your application and breaking up dirt if you're digging a hole and then use a round point shovel to scoop out the broken up dirt 👍🏽
I've had it for almost 15 years, it's my #1
The Lawn Care Nut I also use a shop vac to suck out the dirt. Just a suggestion for the other subscribers too.
Take care
Hey Allan! Do a video on organic weed killer! Please and thanks! Would go great with your organic fertilizer!

Hunter PGP is the way to go for rotors! PGP has low angle nozzles that will give superior coverage and it will shoot from 29 to 50 feet depending on the nozzle you choose.
actually pgp ultras have low angle, pgp’s do not
Going through this now as well. I picked the orbit Saturn III as my go to. It was the only 1/2 inch Home Depot by me carries that has reasonable range and is comparable in size as the last ones for easy drop in. Excellent video as usual sir, thank you.
I've always called the long shovel a "sharp-shooter", it's what I was taught growing up.

The one thing I don't like about K-Rain compared to RainBird and Orbit is their "hiss" when running is louder than the other brands but I do like the price over the RB and O.
What about the half inch with the 3/4 in and and 4 inch and the 4.3754775335 inch .... look like it took u an hr or 2
Al - good stuff. you make it look easy!
kind of surprised you didn't go with rainbird, I saw some pics In your feed.
What are those donut shaped things for?
keep the stolons from overtaking the head
Your head is much smaller than the previous owner. Although it's not the size of the head, but how far it pops up right??
keep up the good work!
TORO & LCN giveaway?
You inspired me to do yard work LCN thanks.
Your push mower will work fine, but if the head is that far above grade, a heavy mower may eventually cause break at the connection when it’s run over repeatedly.
Start at 4:35
I feel let down we didn't get to see the new heads running
that's the next video!
