Interesting tid bit. I did a soil test and sent the same sample to 2 different sources. I got a different PH, Phosphorus and Calcium numbers. When asked why, they said they have different procedures to test. So heads up. Do a video on that. Send the same sample to 4 different sources including your local extension office and show us the results. Would make a great video!
Hey Ryan. For your comment about dethatching too early…one thing I worry about is putting fertilizer down to get things growing and then 2 or 3 weeks later doing a dethatch. Should I wait for the first application of fertilizer until the dethatch is done? Worried that gets too late. Cheers
Hey Ryan thank you for the great job you do 💪🏽💪🏽 quick question I did soil test came back saying low on N and K which fertilizer you recommend and when to do it to not have the grass stress from the heat on this summer
So it's mid-April. I still have some scattered spots in my lawn with lots of brown grass blades mixed in. I'm hoping it's just leftover fine fescue that hasn't greened up yet because the rest of my grass (mix of rye, tall fescue, and KBG) is very green already.
Ryan! Been watching you for years buddy. Looking forward to your new lawn on the front of your property! Question.. where did Connor go!? Has he given up on the lawn care world? If you talk to him, let him know he’s got a fan who’s ready for an update. Thanks! Keep up the good work sir!
one nice thing about a spring seeding - even if it nearly all dies off in the summer - is that it will get some life in the soil; growing in organic matter(down in vs just top dressing) with lots of root pathways that another fall seeding can use, and those will help with soil compaction, aeration, and water retention over hard dry 'dead' dirt .....at least that is what happened to me last year, as I had to put something down to cover the dirt; altho it didn't do well thru the summer, when I redid it in the fall things went extra good in then better soil
Ah thanks. I was going to de thatch but i'll wait until fall probably this year. It's tough to get the timing down on the pre emergent, especially now in the northeast with 55 degree days and 20 degree nights. But after you said it's not going to control certain weeds anyway, the pre emergent may not even help my specific issue anyway! I've got this one spot in my yard that has creeping charlie, or clover looking weeds that NOTHING seems to kill. The spray stuff i've used on it, even round up, just turns it yellow and it comes right back.
What u think about clover? I leave them. They are green and soft. Also I have like 40 huge pine trees around property 1acre. Should I dethatch to help growth? Just too big, and too much to just rake and blow.
Do you plan to do a video or add micro clover to your grass care guides? I think it’d be informative for those that have it or want to add some to their lawn. Personally I have it mixed in my lawn and love the added benefits of it.
I'd be interested in hearing more about your tree planting efforts too. I loved your Royal Frost birch from the house that I plan on planting that myself this spring
Hey there Ryan, looking forward to seeing what kind of seed you go with on the new front yard? Sure hope to see and meet you guys at Pauls open house in a few weeks? Still waiting on the City to issue my building permit for my new shop/man cave! Take care and don't work too hard!
Get out there with a rake and rake the spots where there’s snow mold. That will let the grass under it breath and get some sun. Just mow it off, it’ll be fine. This year before winter comes mow as short as you think you can go. Don’t scalp it but have it nice and short. The reason you got snow mold is the grass was left too long during winter so when it snowed it just folded over the grass and keep it from drying out and caused the snow mold.
@@fettyguapo thanks, I raked it out last year and it recovered eventually but it was a lot of work. I only had it at 1.5” both years since my reno. I’m thinking it might have to do with the type of grass and my climate. Grass stayed very green right up until snowfall and it’s RPR which I think might be a little prone to it. Hoping to find a preventative
Usually my lowest cut turf was the hardest hit by snow mold so it's not necessarily that you left it too long. Sometimes it's just inevitable and some raking should help
That was good info. I live in Massachusetts so, like you I’m in a cold area. I’ve always dethatched, aerated and fertilized with crabgrass preventer. Should aeration be done in spring? This year maybe I will wait on dethatching and fertilizer. My grass is still brown, maybe a small hint of green coming in, but still pretty dormant, so I won’t go tearing into it.
Ryan! I need help! Any suggestions on what to do with my front lawn that’s been taken over by some creeping lavender type weed? We just rent this place but I’m close to paying a company to come and just start the lawn over lol
9:25 I have a question about what I think is quack grass already growing in front of my vinyl fence, while I still have snow in most my yard, but i want to try this search. But for the life of me can’t find this search bar. All I can think is it’s because I’m in the RUclips app, but I also checked your website online. Any help on finding this search bar?
Maryland here...for me I feel like I have rk detach before seeding or I won't get good seed to soil contact. Overfeeding the whole lawn. Irrigation put in at the end of rhe fall and the seed didn't take. Yard is a mess.
Will barricade prevent my cool season fescue lawn from thickening up this spring after I seeded in the early fall last year? I threw down a light application of fertilizer a few days ago. Thank you for these videos.
I’m going to need to over seed this spring, have a bunch of moss. Would thatching the moss up he better than a moss killer? Thinking that if I put the moss killer down, it would be similar to the pre-emergent? Thank you for all you do!
Yeah removing it with a thatcher would be a good idea but if it's really heavy, the issue is likely to come back from too much shade or too much moisture or both
What would you recommend for high traffic areas? Our lawn sits between us and our parking pad and it’s pretty well decimated in that area. We plan to aerate and overseed, but is there any best practices to keep it looking okay? (It’s sod from last summer and we live in WA state so it got pretty muddy/ squishy this winter so that didn’t help) Also just wanted to say thank you so much for your videos! They are always so informative and helpful, as well as entertaining and beautiful. Keep up the good work!
So Iv got pre emergent down already. But I need to lay down more seed in bare areas. Can I put a layer of top soil in the bare areas then put my seed down?
Unfortunately no. Your only option would be to really break up that existing soil and hope but once that barrier is created it's not 100% you'll get good seed germination
Thanks for the video Ryan. Builder put the lawn right before summer 2022 and all we have is weed and few patches of lawn. What is the course of action you advice? Do a pre-emergent and post-emergent then do overseeing in fall? Don't know what kind of screener they used but there are lot of small rocks (gravel size) in the whole yard as well.
@@ryanknorrlawncare what are main steps for lawn renovation? I'm reading article from local university and they say if lawn is more than 50% weed (which is) then kill all vegetation and reseed entire lawn. So it make sense to reseed near fall?
@@runtime_engineer yes that would be best case. I have multiple playlists on full renovations so all of that info is there and also a single renovation video where it packs it into one. Also I have a renovation guide on my website that's a written one over 100 pages so take your pick haha
@@ryanknorrlawncare Awesome. I will go through those videos and prepare a guide for me. I still need to go through your grass type videos lol I want the greenest, healthiest and best looking grass in the block and I am sure I will achieve it with your detail videos :)
Thank you, Ryan! Any advice for attacking Dallis grass coming up right now in Southern IN? I've got leveling, fill in irrigation rutts and overseed of the RK Elite PRG/KBG I put down in the fall and want to be doing as much as I can going into Spring. Thanks!
Ohio lawn here….6 acre new install of 50/50 Kentucky blue (2 Elite varieties) and perennial rye (2 Elite Varieties) in October 2022. Have bunch of patchy spots and never cut yet. First application 2023: should it be 1.starter fertilizer or 2. Fertilizer with pre-emergent? I’m thinking number 1. My fertilizer guys tried saying the lawn is established and I should do number 2. Correct me if I’m wrong but doesn’t it take a good 3-4 mows before the lawn is considered established? Im hoping the current bare spots will grow once more starter is put down and the seed didn’t wash away. We’ll find out
Especially with bluegrass I think it's too soon for preemergent. I'd just start feeding it and spray post if necessary this season and get on the pre-emergent next year
I just reseeded 4K with a bluegrass rye mix last fall , and like Ryan suggested I’m gonna skip the pre ‘‘em to try and avoid root pruning on the young grass. I want to try and have the strongest roots possible going into this summer. I’m gonna spit spray with speedzone and wait for fall to get back to the pre ‘em
Looking forward to see you seed your lawn. It looks great in the videos. Nice and flat. I just had a house built recently and the builder brought in a bunch of orange sand dirt to grade the property. Its pretty flat around the home just very orange and sandy. All the top soil is under it. I am in South Carolina and tend to till it with a tiller as it has gotten pretty hard and I know I cant just toss the Bermuda grass out on top. Is there anything else you would recommend to just get this grass growing that wont break the bank. Thanks
When would be a good time to put down greenorr g? I applied a small dose of fert with added iron 4 weeks ago and got a good color response that is starting to fade. I wanted to try out your product but don’t want to over do it by accident.
Can equalizorr be tank mixed with liquid iron? I want to use equalizorr, humic, kelp and liquid iron this year and trying to figure out what can and can't be mixed. Not trying to walk the lawn 4 times lol
This is my first time using a preEm, I picked up a gallon of Barricade 4FL (liquid prodiamine) to help control crabgrass in my cool season lawn. I’m having a hard time finding the suggested application rate per gallon of water, any thoughts or suggestions on where to find this?
Great content like usual. I renovated my front yard last year full KBG. It’s looking good but takes time as we know. When is it warm enough to spray Speedzone or any herbicide for broadleaf weeds that grew when the ground was bare before seeding? Also, is it even possible to have grubs this time of year? My backyard wasn’t dethatched last year due to my front yard focus. I used a handheld dethatch tool for some areas and the grass itself came up like carpet in some small sections. I definitely saw a worm but it might’ve been a grub. Is this even possible?
Thanks for all you do Ryan, I am wondering if anyone knows what I should do about a growth issue I had from last year. I planted a fresh yard from scratch and it originally came in and after about the 3rd mow, I noticed one area really thriving it was only about a patch the size of a large sewer cover. I used a soil test kit and did a very even spread along my yard. I wish the rest of it filled in as well as this spot did. I have no idea how to boost the rest of the soil to make this look right thou. my dog tears thru the yard in a path but this isn't anywhere near that either. I'm hoping this second year of growth will shine thru. I may put Ryan's Shade Fine Fescue since I didn't realize how little light I get in this same area.
Yes you can use tenacity if seeding but many are getting it confused as if it lasts as long or can be a replacement for prodiamine which is not the case. If seeding you can use it or the starter fertilize that has the same active ingredient as well.
@@staveb0mb since TTT doesn’t spread like KBG, spreading more wouldn’t hurt. Scott’s has a a starter fertilizer that has mesotrione in it for weed control.
My lawn has bunch of weeds that don’t seem to want to die! I just bought my house last summer and I am new to the lawn game! Any tips from anyone? I have used weed killer but none of it seems to work!
I'm in Northern IL (Chicago suburbs). The rule of thumb is to apply pre emergent when soil temperatures reach 55 degrees. I usually do it early/mid April, give or take on when it decides to warm up. Hope I was able to help. Since your just a bit further north I'd say mid April or even late April would probably be just fine
In WI and monitor soil temps nearing 50 degrees. It can really depend on our weather, but when you start seeing consistent daytime temps of 50. Can use different apps/websites to monitor the soil temps.
Mr. Knorr, I follow your channels regularly--even your house build. Here's the deal: no one I can find--No, Not One--deals with this pesky and frustrating Transition Zone. Here in Middle TN, the timing is off, we get freezes one day after 80° sun, then buckets of rain, then a freeze, then more 80° followed by 28°. Watcha got for us? No one else has ANYTHING.

Bro, this spring is going to be wild! You’re seeding your entire front lawn in the spring!!! If anyone can pull it off, it’s a Vikings fan.
Lebanon ProScape 21:22:4 contains mesotriome, you can seed with it and it’s a pre emergent, starter fert
Glad you mentioned people moving to electric. Just got a new Green Machine 62v. Man, love it. Can mow early and not bother neighbors. Cuts nice too.

New to the channel!
I have a beautiful 1,000sqft section of Berumda grass that is coming up wonderfully this spring. New home, new lawn.

For the clover /grass plot, can you do a soil sample against a control to see exactly how much nitrogen levels are increased from the clover?

What do you recommend for large amount of moss that occurred over the winter?
Add Lilly moss killer granular. Go heavy. Water it in , let 2-3 days pass and then get a lawn keepers rake and remove the moss. Fresh seed and fert

How about a vid showing how to ID grass types in mixed fields?
I laid a 50 50 mix of compost and top soil in the fall. Looks great now, but should I do more this spring to keep the lawn green for the summer?
I have the same Scott’s spreader you have, what setting do you use for pre- and post emergent, or seeding.
I did soil test and I'll get the result in several days i hope and i also hope you can help me by choosing which fertilizer I need. Thanks

Thanks Ryan! I did a renovation last year. The new grass came in pretty thin. Do you think I should seed again or pre emergent? Thanks!
What type of grass seed?
@@CrazyManwich tttf.
@@staveb0mb since TTT doesn’t spread like KBG, spreading more wouldn’t hurt.
Scott’s has a a starter fertilizer that has mesotrione in it for weed control.
I noticed the frogs here in the Northeast as well this week!!!!
Great vid
My lawn has bunch of weeds that don’t seem to want to die! I just bought my house last summer and I am new to the lawn game! Any tips from anyone? I have used weed killer but none of it seems to work!
How many tests are you going to need bug lot
I need help getting rid of moss
Usually a sign of too much shade or too much moisture. If either or both of those can be adjusted that usually helps.
When would you recommend to do a pre emergent in southeastern Wisconsin?
I'm in Northern IL (Chicago suburbs). The rule of thumb is to apply pre emergent when soil temperatures reach 55 degrees. I usually do it early/mid April, give or take on when it decides to warm up. Hope I was able to help. Since your just a bit further north I'd say mid April or even late April would probably be just fine
In WI and monitor soil temps nearing 50 degrees. It can really depend on our weather, but when you start seeing consistent daytime temps of 50. Can use different apps/websites to monitor the soil temps.
@@andyslawncareandoutdooradv thank you
@@rickhelm2244 thanks Rick
My local turf expert that works with pro fields and golf courses told me never to seed in the spring ever in my state.
Ill move to battery power when they make a push mower that can actually cut 1/2 acre on one charge...
Haaa not going to happen
yes.
when did you move?
Mr. Knorr,
I follow your channels regularly--even your house build. Here's the deal: no one I can find--No, Not One--deals with this pesky and frustrating Transition Zone. Here in Middle TN, the timing is off, we get freezes one day after 80° sun, then buckets of rain, then a freeze, then more 80° followed by 28°.
Watcha got for us?
No one else has ANYTHING.
Let’s go!
Sand! I'm waiting to know when to pull that trigger.
Did you not do a dormant seeding test area last year or did I dream that?😂
Gas for my mower since it a couple acres. The rest for me is electric.
Looking forward for new season videos! And some reviews I hope! My lawn is ready (early green up!)
I've had my mower for 10+ years and haven't done a single oil change on it yet. Runs like a top. lol
