Applying a soil wetting agent to the putting green (Hydrolink Advance)

[@LawnTips]

Green is looking so good mate. Vids are getting better every time!! So good

[@theaussielawn]

You'll make me blush mate haha

[@grahamroberts8107]

G'day mate, I'm watching from New Zealand, but I am an Australian. I've learnt a lot thanks.

[@andyscott82isme]

I just love how when you were talking about the wetting agent any that fly kept landing and walking on your face, without so much as a blink or flinch!

[@theaussielawn]

hahaha

[@jperez7499]

Greetings From Maryland USA, that is one of the best video examples I've seen on the benefits of a wetting agent. My plan this summer is to use less city water and incorporate a wetting agent on the Beds/ Lawn and rely mostly on what mother nature will provide. Cheers.

[@theaussielawn]

Thanks mate, so nice of you to take the time to say so. Good luck this spring / summer it sounds like a good plan. Cheers Brenton

Thanks for tuning in mate hope you have a great summer, Ive been to California once before its a great place.

[@lachlanbanks-smith1106]

Very informative, I especially liked that you also included your garden experiment with the Hydrolink - not many lawn channels show much love for the garden outside of the turf. Great content, many thanks - watching from Melbourne Vic

[@theaussielawn]

Thanks mate, I’m going to try and do a little bit of everything in my channel. Hope your having a good weekend Cheers Brenton

[@lachlanbanks-smith1106]

Mate I'll be watching with interest, your Glypho presentation was also a top watch - you're on fire, keep them up! 👍👍👍🍻

[@shanegent5804]

Hey Brenton, decided to wind the clock back and check out some of your earlier videos. Your videos are always informative, accurate, easy to follow and down to earth….well with lawns I guess it’s a given they’d be down to earth LOL 😂 Oh yeah, to answer ya question, I’m in Redland Bay QLD 😉. I’ve recently got back into aiming for a nice manicured lawn with 6 month old Tiftuf , was using a very old Steelfort Engineering built 500 lawn master, but dug deep and brought RW22 which is super solid and Aussie built to last, like Jason’s Mey you tired. Meet and spoken with Jason a couple of times, nice honest guy like you, also brought his PRS and run it on my new 36V Ryobi. Any way I’m getting long winded yeah like I do at times on comments , but hey who cares 🤣. Will be good to see your Easter over sew of Ryegrass on you new video. Cheers for now 👍

[@theaussielawn]

Awesome vids mate, would love to see anything on bentgrass in future vids - watching from Clare SA

[@theaussielawn]

G'day mate glad to hear your enjoying the vids thanks for your support. I can't promise too much bent grass content unfortunately as my climate isn't a cool climate at all. Maybe down the track a little I can do a quick bent vid from my local golf course but no promises I'm afraid. Cheers Brenton

Port Macquarie. We use the same Product on our sporting fields does a great job

[@theaussielawn]

G'day Tony lucky bugger living at Port. it's got a funny smell compared to the other wetting agents hey possibly the kelp in there. Have a good weekend mate

[@keneil01]

Great content and editing. Believe it or not, but I had a hard time to keep up with the watering last summer. We had temps above 30 for weeks , which is very unusual here in Norway. I will try the wetting agent this summer - great tip! Looking forward to the next one :)

[@theaussielawn]

Wow you guys would have been melting up there. What kind of grasses do you have? Im guessing fescue varieties and rye ?

[@keneil01]

@@theaussielawn Here in Norway lawn`s are considered more work than nice "frame around the house". Typical gras types are fine fescue, poa pratensis and rye. And lets not forget the moss which is maintenance free (hahah). I have red fescue my self, and are considering to thin out the fescue and reseed with bluegrass.

[@carlbird4737]

[@theaussielawn]

Love it mate thanks for tuning into my crazy little channel, Spring is almost here for us and I cant wait for it to warm up. We have a really cold weather front here atm and its meant to get really cold with snow down to 600m in places. (not here though we don't get snow ) 🤟

[@sm1tty031]

Youre very welcome. My wife and I want to visit AU when things get more settled. We got lucky a few days ago. a water main broke uphill from us and we have been "harvesting" the runoff which is clear potable water with garden hoses and sandbags. Ive been running water on our property for 4 days now...

[@theaussielawn]

sm1tty031 wow hope there was no major damage to buildings or the like. I’d recommend visiting Australia it’s a pretty unique place and apart from the English language connection it’s very different to America in a cultural aspect. Enjoy your week ahead mate 🤘

[@sm1tty031]

@@theaussielawn oh no...just running downhill in the gutter. probably got thousands of gallons of water redirected to my bermuda grass with hoses its great!

[@WayneJones-dk1ez]

Thanks for the video on wetting agents. I notice your cutting the putting green nice and short, what depth do you cut to and what grass type is it? Thinking of putting a couple putting holes in the garden for a bit of fun :)

[@theaussielawn]

I’m running with Astro mate it’s priced well and effective. Glad your enjoying the vids thanks for tuning in 🤘

[@craig_Dronepilotsqld]

The Aussie Lawn great to hear your rolling with Astro mate. I put my first application at the minimum rate on my Tiftuf a couple of weeks back, has made a difference already to the amount of clippings I’m getting as well as thickening up my patch. Thanks for replying, really enjoy your channel 👍

[@zacj63]

I am watching from Sydney, mate. How often should we apply this product to the lawn?

[@theaussielawn]

The official line for hydro link advance is "as required" but in the warmer months I would apply it every 8-12weeks for a general guide

[@TheAussieaustin]

do you apply a wetting agent as a once off or more regularly?

[@theaussielawn]

I'm really quite lazy with the buffalo haha I occasionally use a soil wetter on it when I'm feeling generous 😂

[@caveman5831]

First.. lol Lookn sweet from the spray fert few days ago.. where do i buy the PGR coz I don't see it on Bunnings website.. Also how do I kill off the left over kikuyu grass b4 I try plant new grass (depends on my sunlight times) other wise I'll probably get stuck with kikuyu again.. also my soil is clay do u recommend using a clay breaker b4 I put some top soil down and the new grass..

[@theaussielawn]

haha good work mate sorry for the delay in replying.... If you jump onto Ben Sims at Lawn Tips online store you can get it delivered to your door at a very reasonable price. Some on the fly answers to your other questions if you are starting the whole lawn from scratch then apply roundup to treat the kikuyu. If you are able to do so, Import some sandy loam a couple inches thick and lay / seed your new lawn on that, Other wise apply gypsum to help break up the clay (not a fast solution though)

[@caveman5831]

Cheers for the reply mate.. so weed killer for killing off left over kikuyu and sandy loam sounds like the better option and faster since I'm starting fresh new lawn.. I was hoping to do a little versatile putt putt green but I'm not sure if I get enough of sun light for that lawn type and I only have a standard lawn mower so I probably won't be able to get a nice clean close cut..
