First mow is so sweet

Those water filled rollers are a pain.Use your cylinder mower after the lawn has had a good soak via rain or irrigation to help flatten her out champ.

[@thegreenandgoldlife1464]

Gday Fabian. Mate. The lawn is soaked ATM. Might five it a go aye.

@@thegreenandgoldlife1464 Give it a go mate it works pretty well.I have a rover 45 that I use as my every day mower and I even put some weight plates on it for extra weight.

[@Achilliez]

Good stuff mate, I’ve honestly done about 5 or 6 cuts. About 3 weeks ago I dumped some fertiliser on after over sowing and we had some nice warm days and then we’ve had 4 days of rain just after I got a cut in 👍🏻 and honestly I’d say it’s ready another cut! Leaving it a bit long at the moment 50mm while it grows and fills out the bare patches, then might drop down to 40mm. But it looks happy at 50mm. 🤙🏻🤙🏻 see I wrote I nice comment, don’t send the boys round with round up will ya 😂

[@thegreenandgoldlife1464]

🤣🤣🤣. Ill let ya off this time Neil. Sounds like its coming along mate. Wont stop raining here. Its good to get the sky beers but I cant reno me lawn. Its soup.

[@Achilliez]

The Green and Gold Life no good mate at all. I’m thinking about making an aerator out of a 44 to drag behind the husqvarna ride on. I thought I could fill it with water to add the weight for whatever deep I want 👍🏻 I’ll let you know how it goes.

Good luck with your channel. I'm writing from Texas to learn more about Kikuyu. We consider it an invasive weed, so how do you keep it from taking over your flower beds?

[@thegreenandgoldlife1464]

Gday mate. Wow wee the Lone star state. Your 100% correct kik can be considered an environmental pest. My Kik is a steryle dwarf variets so the seeds will not germinate. I also have grass edging to a depth of 150mm or 6inches to stoo the rhysomes and stolons from spreading. That seems to be working well. I have another vid on what is kikuyu, might be worth a look? Cheers

[@chisel83]

Phosphorus but same same

[@thegreenandgoldlife1464]

Aye. Thanks mate. Ive had to have watched this vid 1 million times and didn't pick it up. Cheers

[@chisel83]

The Green and Gold Life good vid Danielsan. Lawn will be cranking after the rain we've had and Sundays coming rain

[@bigpapaharis4588]

i have kikuyu as well its one year ago since its laid :) , i follow the lawn porn program and my kikuyu looks amazing. Im about to get it renovated (scalped, air rated, top dress and fert)....I was wondering do you need to oversow kikuyu? and in winter im thinking of oversowing with another seed just for winter so it stays green is this possible? Cheers, love the channel :)

[@thegreenandgoldlife1464]

Aye BigPapa cheers mate. No you don't need to overseed kik. Kikuyu spreads through rhysome and stolon growth. Post Reno it will repair its self and spring out the ground. Just keep the water up for a few weeks. You can keep kikuyu green over winter by early morning waterings of 5min to knock the frost off or consider applying a frost protection such as Carbon trader from Amgro or Envy from agrobest. You can overseed with a cool season variety if you like. You would need to scalp the kik down and plant in mid Autumn. Hope this helps
