    I really like how Sta Green feeds the lawn and the soil at the same time with humic acid. 30% Nitrogen with iron should make the lawn pop a dark green. Also, sea kelp to help with root production is a nice touch. I think Scotts Green Max has some healthy competition with this product. But the proof is in the pudding; I can't wait to see your results. Have a great day.

    Hi, where have you been in my life? My front lawn is nothing but a weed I am so embarrassed! I wanted to pour or spray some round up on it, but then someone said if I kill it with that it would kill the soil and when I put new seed down it would not grow. So I’m going to buy one of those weed killer not grass killer you recommend. I’m not trying to have the best lawn I just want to not be embarrassed. I rent and I have just had hip surgery.

    I saw this fert at Lowe’s and got super excited to see the kelp and humic included. Sadly, it’s super clumpy and doesn’t spread at all. Went back and bought another bag off a new pallet and had the same results. Might be due to the humidity and Lowe’s storing them outside. Hopefully they get it fixed and quality control improves.

      Milorganite is trash now. It’s been overhyped before C19 kicked in back in 2020. The price they’re selling those small bags were the same price they were selling the 45lb bags back 10yrs ago. Plus the analysis was stronger. The new analysis on the smaller bag is weaker.

    I'm hoping they offer something with a bit less N, not a fan of high nitrogen ferts. As we know nitrogen pushes top growth and that equates to at least minimum 2 mowings per week per my experience with higher content nitrogen ferts. I do run a hybrid program throughout the season which allows me more flexibility in the amount on the ground.

    • @LawnAmateur

      Protip: identifying your grass type should be your first step. Aka, the spectracide that I used on my Zoysia lawn was great at killing off all the weeds, but when I tried it on my brother's lawn it killed off some of the Centipede (I thought it was Bermuda 😢). St. Augustine grass mostly falls in the same category as Centipede regarding herbicides, so take caution.

    Adding coffee grounds throughout the growing season has these benefits and you can get it free from most of your coffee shops like Starbucks.
    Organic material
    Coffee grounds provide nitrogen and phosphorous, which can be good for lawns that are sandy, clay, or nutrient-poor
    Aeration
    Coffee grounds create small air pockets in the soil, which helps young roots access water, nutrients, and oxygen
    Drainage
    Coffee grounds can help improve drainage, which can lead to a healthier lawn
    Soil pH
    Coffee grounds are slightly acidic and can lower the pH of soil, which can be beneficial for clay soils
    Compost
    Coffee grounds are rich in nitrogen, which can help bacteria turn organic matter into compost
    Mulch
    Coffee grounds can help retain moisture and prevent weeds when spread around the base of plants
    Worms
    Earthworms eat coffee grounds and return minerals to the soil, which can stimulate lawn growth
    Pests
    Coffee grounds can deter pests like snails and slugs, and can also bind to organic and chemical pesticides to help keep pests away for longer
    Fungal disease
    Coffee grounds are anti-microbial and can help prevent fungal diseases like Fusarium, Pythium, and Sclerotinia

    Shouldn't you be putting it down at half that rate if you're going different directions.?

    • @LawnAmateur
      @LawnAmateur  2 месяца назад

      No, that's the rate it should go down on regardless of direction. The direction is to properly cover the whole lawn with fertilizer

    • @darrenhollins10
      @darrenhollins10 2 месяца назад

      That was my question also: How did you not run out of fertilizer in the spreader if you pass in different directions? Also, I see you make really wide turns with the spreader, which is something I don't do. I guess that's why your grass looks better than mine, LOL. Mine looks good though and I'm learning a lot from your videos.
      Lastly, what height are you cutting at right now? I'm between 3-3 1/2 for TTF. I'll be cutting at 4" when the weather gets hotter.

    • @LawnAmateur
      @LawnAmateur  2 месяца назад +1

      @darrenhollins10 no that's how the fertilizer products are designed to be used. Wider turns are good because the spreader will throw the granular helping you slightly overlap where you already applied fertilizer. I'm currently cutting at 2 1/2 I'll go up once temperatures rise also

    I'm sorry but the price for it doesn't justify the amount of sq ft coverage needed for me. 70 bucks at my local Lowes that covers 14400 sqft. I have 24000 sq ft of bermuda to fertilize. I'll just stick with Andersons fertilizer when it comes out to about the same price for me. I know I'm going to catch hell for this comment but it really comes down to price and coverage rate per each yards size usage.

    • @LawnAmateur
      @LawnAmateur  Месяц назад

      There is nothing wrong with that. You have to do what's best for you. I'm just showing what's available in the big box stores just in case people want something right away. By the way, what Andersons fertilizer do you use?
