Best Way To Prevent Weeds in Your Lawn and Garden Beds // Freehand Pre-emergent

[@sydneyaerospotter5856]

im keen to see updates on matts lawn over the summer!

[@danieltillman3858]

Yards look great! I have the same hand held broadcast spreader and I've found that if you rotate the handle backwards, you can run it along the edge better without flinging product to the right into the lawn. Works great for overseeding and granular applications.

[@symbiont0156]

Folks over here in the States love it when you say "couch"...funny stuff mate! Love your vids Ben. Keep up the good work!

[@sethgalt7542]

love the updates on matts lawn, keep em up

That’s so awsome Benny Loved the video

[@zaiakhamis4]

Love the videos cuzzy I wish you could see what my lawn looks like now after 1 year of care it has come a long way and I gotta say your videos help a lot I'm gonna give this product a go just in time before winter

[@troy9772]

Awesome, great review. All questions answered!

[@mchlmyhfr]

Yo mate :D Looking forward to updates of yours and matts lawns!

[@russellhoughton2128]

Yo mate, Great vid. Gotta get a prune on those roses mate! Take it easy.

[@thegreenandgoldlife1464]

Yeah boi. Pre emergents baby. Gotta love em.....

[@jasongiovanni9545]

AGREE

[@Dissposable_Hero]

Any idea on when it is being released at Bunnings?

[@paulineanderson3985]

Been watching your videos because I need to do some fixing up here in Ontario Canada in my yard. Particularly liked your LFC shirt in first video. #YNWA. I am a transplanted scouser, was a bit worried yesterday when they went 2 down to Blackpool. Be well and thanks for the info.

[@TheMustangs05]

I wonder if your neighborhood is different because I love the Aussie home setup you guys got very neat.

[@Starlight_GT]

Any video's that talk about weed control of existing weeds on perennial ryegrass? Thanks

[@craigmantimestman4226]

Great work. I can’t see on the shelf at Bunnings yet. Please keep me informed if you find out when it is.

[@LawnTips]

Did you pop in today? Hopefully will be in the next week if not already there!

[@craigmantimestman4226]

@@LawnTips Yes i did so I will try next week thanks.

[@TheLawnGuardian]

Great video, Ben! 👌

[@matthewsticher9431]

Great vid mate, I reckon you need some mulch in the garden to stop weeds coming through and help with the garden drying out.

[@camerongrafen4656]

That's mad bro have to try some out on my garden beds 😊

[@jonathanwilkins1586]

Look at how big Matts Solar system is!. . How long would you leave the product in the lawn before you cut the grass?

[@humanarchitecture]

I wish Matt could also spend some time in his garden. Haha. Youré always fixing his mess.

[@jonathanm9436]

Excellent. I'm using your schedule of treatments for my lawn, so straight to the interwebs for suppliers (no Bunnings yet). The BASF info sheet says "warm season turf species only". So, which pre-emergent would you recommend for RTF - rhizomatous tall fescue here in the ACT? Your weather looks the same as ours too.

[@stupac10]

Hey man I can’t find this at bunnings anywhere. Any idea where online or another affordable product I could buy instead??

[@tasker1986]

Me either, been looking frequently. Nothing yet, also been told it'll probably only be at the warehouse stores or online. (largest bunnings) if it does come..

[@stupac10]

Great thanks. Apparently the Oxafert is very good so I’m trying to track some of that down instead. My weeds are out of control and I don’t want any more!!

[@muds0369]

Doesnt appear to be available to the gen public at Bunnings

[@stupac10]

Legend thanks mate!!!

[@stupac10]

Just found it at my local Newstead bunnings in qld. It was still boxed up and stashed up high. Going for about $44 per 1kg

[@reibanga1]

Back on board Benno sent through a sneaky order on your website too yo 👌

[@LawnTips]

Thanks legend, appreciate the support as always 🤙🏼

[@stupac10]

Thanks I’m gonna keep an eye out for this. Should I avoid putting this down along with general fertilizer? Maybe leave a week in between?

[@LawnTips]

You could do either man, should be fine!

[@izzuddinnaimofficial2563]

Important question. Does pre emergent hurt the existing plants (mango & banana plant) if being sprayed on the soil near the plant ?

[@dashcargill4981]

It’s awesome ya can get it at Bunnings...just wondering with my kikuyu Reno this season I’m gunna over seed with a kikuyu blend that has perennial rye it it so I take it I shouldn’t be chucking this stuff down heh?

[@michaelchandley1066]

ben can you use this product on freshly mowed lawn

[@NewHunterMatt]

my lawn is kikuyu too and I have some tufts of ryegrass here and there. Last season i spot sprayed with roundup which left holes in the lawn, i filled them in with dirt but the lawn still hasn't taken back over. I'll have to give it another shot with dirt and 100% kikuyu seed. Is there a better way to deal with rye already in the lawn? (I bought a pre-emergent last summer but forgot to spray it in autumn!) cheers

[@grimesy36]

Thanks mate super handy vid

[@bennieforner91]

Can you apply this straight after a spring reno? Cheers mate

[@markwilkinson4563]

When is this supposed to get to Bunnings please Ben? It’s not listed as yet where I am.

[@LawnTips]

Mark wilkinson I was told early September. Might even be in store, just not on the website.

[@markwilkinson4563]

Lawn Tips sweet mate I’ll check it out tomoz. Thanks heaps mate really appreciate what you do 👍🏼

[@Quickstepz-OG]

I couldn't find any pre emergent at Bunnings yesterday. I should have asked, I was in the isle didn't see anything so got the good old norco binder killer.

[@markwilkinson4563]

[@liamharper4475]

It's in some stores now, saw it at Bunnings Padstow (Sydney)

[@rhystapscott]

Hey mate! Great vid! Just moved into a rental and the front lawn has heaps of those big weeds, would I use a “weed n feed” on it and then some of this? How would I go about getting rid of them and getting the lawn up? (Not sure on type of lawn) any tips would be amazing! 🤘🏼🇦🇺

[@bennylaz1]

What can you put down on a mixed warm and cool season lawn??

[@junior25lj]

[@TheLawnTools]

Yea boi. Dirty dogs. I think your mate will be ok with you showing the bad spots in the lawn in exchange for free pre E 😁👍🏼

[@BladerunnerLA2019]

Hi mate. What's the difference between summer grass and crab grass?

[@PaulHaydenYeh]

A year later, how were the results? About to hit go on this for poa treatment on buffalo or should I opt for barricade instead?

[@rebeccaryan2521]

[@evrude79]

How long should I wait after applying FreeHand should I wait to then Seed with RPR Perennial Ryegrass Seed. Also, do you have much experience with the PRR Ryegrass?

[@jarredj5954]

Yo mate. 3 month old turf, how soon can I apply pre-emergent, liquid ferts and top dress and in what sequence? Cheers bro and keep up the vids👍

[@letsmemebrandon6844]

2 mows for this stuff, like he says in the vid. the liquid pre's are likely different though

[@lukeward9590]

Can I put this down before I put grass down? To try and keep all the weeks down, I come home from 3 weeks at work and spent at least 6 hours pulling weeds. I'm still a while away from getting grass just sick of the weeds haha

[@tysonlucas8671]

[@stephenperchard6121]

Any links you have step by step process for lawns i dont even know where to start with my lawn 😭

[@samuelasamoah6906]

With the way one product contains 2 A.Is, am now convinced i can tank mix 2 pre-emergents to go after my spring and fall weeds? Am i safe to say this? (For instance prodiamine and isoxaben in one app)

[@TheAvatarAndy]

Can you put out a pre emergent and then do a top dress the weekend after?

[@LawnTips]

Sure can! Not a problem at all

[@mitchellgibbs1465]

Nothing wrong with a bit of poa, the course I worked at had about 80% poa greens and they were lovely!

[@LawnTips]

Same where I was on the golf course man. Pretty much impossible to keep out of bent.

[@ericthewoof]

Thanks for the vids. Question, does your rye survive through summer and stay green?

[@LawnTips]

Yes sir, sure does!

[@ericthewoof]

@@LawnTips awesome, thanks dude. I'm trying to figure out what to do here. I've started with a rye based lawn blend but getting a lot of people saying I need Kik if I want it to survive summer. We get less rain than you but I've just put in irrigation. I'm not super keen on going Kik so I'll see how the rye does.

[@caveman5831]

Damn dude, my Kikuyu looks greener then ye old mats house and all i did is give it some lawn fret b4 winter started and my area didn't get much rain but it has a few weeds in it but ill smash them out soon since spring has started.. well im gonna mow it to dirt first b4 i get excited with it..
