  • Was it worth it to use the slice seeder instead of just Aerating? I was actually surprised

    Hey Doc. For your first time you did fine. I bought a Billy Goat seeder about 8 years ago and honestly I don't use it as much as I thought I would but it's nice to have when a job pops up.
    I've owned a Turfco and that thing would kick your butt! My Billy Goat has pistol grips for forward and reverse and both are variable speed.
    It's just like any machine you don't have much experience with. Practice makes perfect.
    Again, you did fine. I was waiting to see if you would criss cross your pattern and you did!

    Just food for thought. Its a good idea to slice about three inches deep prior to this to reduce compaction to insure a deeper root system.Also guys put out an insecticide to make sure ants and other critters dont disturb the seed germination.

    I would recommend slicing the lawn 2-3 times. Then spread seed with a broadcast spreader. I don’t trust the seed hopper. Leaf compost is a good idea but IMO not necessary. Spread starter fertilizer. Customer needs to water daily until germination, then 1” per week.

      @@DOCREAL1118 I’ve been doing this a while and kinda winding down. However , I might just do seeding and aerating. That niche has always been profitable and I enjoy the most. A lot of lawn car companies don’t master it and/or don’t have the top of the line machines ( except the big guys). I’ve been looking at the Turfco stand on aerator with seed hopper attachment. The only thing I don’t like is that seeding and aerating is much different than just using an a tine driven over seeder that strategically places the seed is to the soil. I spoke to Turfco and they said their testing has been successful. It would be nice to do both with just 1 ride on machine.

    • @DC-ih8bv
      @DC-ih8bv Год назад +1

      @@DOCREAL1118 totally agree. Number one ..it can damage the seed. It can also compact the seed into the soil too much. One other thing is that the aerating times are not lined up accordingly with the seed so a lot of the seed just sits on the grass bed with limited contact. It’s as if you just threw it. I just got my overseeder tire fixed( same as your machine by Toro) and had some seed in it. I experimented in this NJ weather to empty the hopper. It worked great. I still believe in aerating but was never sold on the 1-2 aerating /seeding process. Maybe I’m wrong.

I get it home to base and at the time had truck issues and had to ride it a block to my movie house to mow and get there and the vibration starts up worse them before. yet another lost day of work I took it back. they played like they couldn't figger out what was wrong. but they where willing to take it on trade and give me sh*t for it. turns out it was a pulley they didn't replace. the guy working on it quit his job over it and told me the dealer had been doing this to everyone just to sell the riders and selling off the trades in other states to cover his ass.. needless to say I never went back to that asshole.
