Nice video....the best way to fight weeds is build the soil and overseeds in spring n fall...A healthy lawn will choke out the weeds....I see you use humic acid....you should also look into using sea kelp,blackstrap molasses unsulfur, fish fertilizer...your soil microbes will be happy and definitely help with weeds.
Most definitely I don't really use too much weed killer maybe once or twice a season because once my turf grow in the weeds can't survive. Oh yea I also got some kelp in my stash lol thank you for the support
Glad your back man! I remember your first videos in 2018 June and July, I was one of your first 10 subs and your at over 2600 subs now wow!!! Keep at it bro!
funny i randomly checked your channel on the 26th because i was about to spray my lawn, saw that your last video was uploaded 7 months ago. I sprayed my lawn on the 30th and i was just scrolling through my subscriptions and saw that this video was posted a week now lol. Glad youre back!
You thought me to use Starter (from Scott) for new seeds with Tenacity. Love it! Thank you so much! It’s the best information I ever got from any other videos. Simple, easy, effective!
I'm glad its that time of the yard lol seems like it took forever to get here. Everything is good, I hope the same for you as well. Thank you for your support
Welcome back Lawn Amateur/Darryl!!!! Its been a minute and I see u painted the fence can’t wait to see what’s in store this season. I hope you’re being safe and staying well.
We have a lot of those small purple flowers and dandelions popping up...I want to try a chemical but have reservations as we also have well water and I try to be mindful of what I put in our soil. But I am at my wit’s end with these weeds!
I feel ya on the weeds. I have tons of them everywhere. I was thinking of just tilling my whole yard, but then I landed on this channel. I am trying to get myself informed asap here. The weeds have got to go.
Man, I really like how you talk to us like we right there with you. IDK why you don't have tons of subs, but I hope your channel pops & blows up! I am learning so much from you. Finding brain cells I didn't know I had. Oh, I do have one issue though. The title of your channel. Amateur my ass! :) At least semi-pro if not straight up pro. Yeah, I am binging your channel, but I guess you already know that. Peace.
Great to see you back. Lost track last year with all the craziness going on. Had a tough time with the weeds last year. I used Tenacity and got mixed results. I think I attacked them too late. I have a couple of suggestions. It would be great to see a progression of the Tenacity working and also a side by side progression of the lawn maybe at the peak of your lawn. What part of the country are you located? I would think methods change depending on your local weather. Also, great message on communicating with your family and friends. Keep up the videos. Excellent channel.
No problem, I got that video coming soon. And yea last year was a bad year I could barely keep up myself. I'm in the northeast. Hopefully this year turn out better thank yoh for your support.
Darryl, glad you're safe cause i remember your job in the hospital. We got our shots here in Philly. Anyway, all to you my lawn is a whole lot better than last year this time. I've got good grass coming through but I see some bald spots and that weed that has the purple top. Should I detract again? Or just heavy seed w tenacity? Or in too early to seed and just do my tenacity right now? I'm just trying to get ahead vs behind. Thanks again and glad to see ya.
If you have bad thatch buildup you can go ahead and dethatch or if its minimum thatch you can use a skinny metal tine rack and rake out the dead grass then overseed. You want to get the best seed to soil contact as possible. This is a good time to start overseeding and definitely make sure to spray that tenacity to kill and protect your grass. Best to get a jump start. The weather seem to be in the clear from here on so it should be ok. Thank you I'm making it through this I hope all is well with you also
@@LawnAmateur I do have a hand detract roller thing lol. Call me silly I just couldn't figure out how the seed was going to grow until I scratched up the dirt first lol
I bought the same bottle of Tenacity and can’t wait to start using it. Do you know if cheap shampoo and blue food coloring will work as surfactant and market? I’ve read it will. Trying to keep my costs down where I can. Also interested in your overseed results in the corner. I can’t seem to get my seed to germinate in the spring. Thanks for the vid and spreading some love and positivity at the end. World needs more of that, too much evil going around. Be blessed!
I definitely understand trying to keep the cost down. Yes a cheap shampoo will definitely work or a cheap dishwashing soap as a surfactant. I've never tried the food coloring trick but I've heard of people using it before so it may work. Spread love and positivity especially through these times. Thank you for the support.
Finally, you're back!!! I get the onion grass too, mostly in the front of my house. I had a ton of snow mold this year and I raked it out with my thatch rake this week since it was warm, not sure if it was the smartest thing to do but I did it and the grass is looking better now...some areas with shallow roots ended up being pulled up but I will over-seed in April once the weather gets consistently water. I over-seeded with turf type tall fescue in the fall but I wonder if that has more issues with snow mold?
Snow mold happens. It was beautiful outside great time to get some yard work started and some times you can definitely pull out the shallow roots raking if you're too rough but alittle overseeding will get you back and running in no time.
@@LawnAmateur Yep! I'm going to put down the Tenacity at the start of April, we're going to get some cold days toward the end of this week. After the tenacity I will wait a week then put down the starter fert and seeds and see what happens. I usually over-seed with the northeast blend, but last fall I over-seeded with Turf type tall fescue which came in well though I did have some patches can came up late so it didn't establish roots in some of the bare areas and that's what came up this past week. What I am not sure of doing is, eithr over-seed with the turf type tall fescue again or over-seed with the northeast blend and then in the fall go back to the turf type tall fescue.
Nice! How often would you recommend reapplying tenacity to prevent the weeds from coming back? I was thinking once a month from april-september during those heavy weed germinating months.
@The_El_Guapo I wouldn't use it all the time on your lawn maybe once or twice because it'll harm your lawn. Use a dedicated pre emergent to keep weeds away
@LawnAmateur I'm just looking for some sort of regimen with this stuff. Everything talked about online is really basic information. Label say pre emergent is good for about 1 month and allows for a maximum yearly application rate of WAY more than what I would be applying. My goal is to keep my regimen pre emergent as much as possible. I figured since it will take me 3 years to go through this bottle, might as well try and maximize its potential. Anyways l, thanks for the response 🤙
I've had lots of problems with wild onions and wild garlic. The only way to permanently get rid of them is to just dig them up so you get rid of all the bulbs. I've tried all weed killers but they always come back because the bulbs survive. I also have tons of moss which require moss killers and lime. Now I get a ton of dead nettle which grows everywhere. The only good thing about them is that they're easy to pull out of the ground with the roots.
Darryl, double checking.. so right now since it's not really warm warm. I should only cut the grass and kill the weeds? I think I have a few weeks to seed. I can say though I have some patches my grass is very green. I'm getting there.
Yea you can go ahead and attack the weeds now and depending on your weather conditions if its not going to be too cold you can go ahead reseed those thin areas.
@@LawnAmateur great I was confused I think because last year I started in late spring. It's chilly get in Philly tonight down to the 30s. I'll do it this week hoping I can get a full day no reason to get the tenacity to take hold.
Yes I will be back shortly. Last year was a busy year for me but this year I'll be back to help get our lawns together. Thank you for reaching out and I hope all is well 🙏🏾
Tenacity would work on that also. If you can't get tenacity. If you can get a weed killer called Image that should work also. Its available at most big box stores
@@LawnAmateur I use tenacity and image combined but I must be off in concentration- sometimes it damages turf, sometimes it doesn’t - it helps to dethatch after a kill

He has returned! Have you tried to dig the onion grass out? The bulbs will stay in the soil and grow each season, if you keep it in there.
Yeah I'm back lol hopefully this will be a better year. That was gonna be my next method to try. Thank you for your support

Good seeing you back. Are you going to use the humic this year
Most definitely
He's back!

I just buy 40% Mesotrione off Amazon ... it's the active ingredient in Tenacity ... but 2/3rds the cost and works just the same.
Yea thats new I'm glad more companies are getting on board and offering a cheaper alternative its great stuff
Are u gonna be back this year? Last year u didn't make that many videos, hopefully all is well and we see u more in the lawn this year
Yes I will be back shortly. Last year was a busy year for me but this year I'll be back to help get our lawns together. Thank you for reaching out and I hope all is well 🙏🏾
Good video i got the other brand from Amazon meso 4 its the same but cheaper in the spring you were doing a blanket spray?
Yea I did a blanket spray. Great stuff
We’re you happy with results using the humic acid every 3 weeks ?
Yes I was. I saw a big difference in my soil and grass.
What to do for grassy weeds? Orchard grass, Dallas grass?
Tenacity would work on that also. If you can't get tenacity. If you can get a weed killer called Image that should work also. Its available at most big box stores
@@LawnAmateur I use tenacity and image combined but I must be off in concentration- sometimes it damages turf, sometimes it doesn’t - it helps to dethatch after a kill
I didn't get how did you get more product in the gallon as you little bit from each bottles. Did you add water to have more solution
Yes these products need to mixed with water. I had the water already filled in the 2 gallon sprayer just needed to add the rest of the chemicals.
Just had 1st cut and fertilizer I wanna put down some milorganite would that be cool it’s gonna rain in 2 days?
Yea its cool
Thats the best chemical killer they make! Good job man.
Yes it is I love it
BTW I love your channel!
👍🏼
Onion grass isn't from seed and germinating. It's a bulb and regenerates year to year. sulfentrazone or round up for lawns 2 should do the trick
Welcome back!!
