I am a newbie coming into this, I just bought my first house. I have to say out of all the content for lawns yours is hands down the best on youtube. You're knowledgeable, but not cocky. You provide great entertainment and information without extraneous details. Your videos just feel really planned out on not on thy fly like some other content out there. KEEP IT UP, I AM A SUBSCRIBER!

[@ryanknorrlawncare]

Welcome aboard!

[@chefls1]

I just applied the simple solution on my lawn and saw a huge progress in just 7 days. I'm a fan of this product and will continue using this for my lawn. Great video...

[@josheakins5137]

Ya these products are awesome. I have pics of a noticable difference after only 3 days. I used lawn food and humic acid. When he says that humic acid comes out much faster, he isn't kidding... I accidentally used the whole bottle on 1000 sq ft 🤦‍♂️. Luckily it didn't hurt anything. Lawn food worked out just fine for me though.

[@sarahmarville3288]

Love simple lawn solutions! Such great products & their customer service is always on point!

Great product for smaller lawns. I like that products come with the hose end feature. Thanks, Ryan.

[@ColonelK0rn1]

Spoon feeding worked out great for me last year. Growth was much more predictable and didn't have nearly as much of a flush growth after an application of a fast release fert. Couple that with good cultural practices of mowing often and at the proper HOC gave me a great looking lawn last year. Your bluegrass is looking amazeballs! I'd totally be walking around barefoot my man!

[@ryanknorrlawncare]

Great to hear you've had good luck with your system. I'm going to continue with the lighter apps and mow mow mow and hopefully we have a great year with weather.

Good stuff Ryan. I’m testing out Simple Lawn Solutions on a neighbors lawn and really happy with the ease and results!

I love their products. I've already tried the grass growth booster and grass energizer. Their company reached out to me personally and sent me a free bottle of their liquid fertilizer for being a customer, best customer service and makes you feel good using their products. I haven't tried this product yet but I'm pleased with this company quite a bit. It's my first year trying them. They are a nice boost between my regular granular feedings

[@lambert1702]

Good video Ryann. I've been using a hose end sprayer to put out humic products this year and like it better than mixing up product in a backpack sprayer and then having to clean everything.

[@michaelurig3887]

Another good video Ryan, What I am starting to see is that bags of fertilizer are now containing a 16-4-8 ratio of products. Your bottle and my bag of Lesco fert are examples and there are more out there. Clemson university recommends a 16-4-8 ratio for centipede grass here in SC. I'm seeding a test plot with TTTF. With the newer seeds of TTTF that are more heat tolerant, I think we'll have a smaller transition zone for TTTF. Have a good week and stay green !!

[@lukeavfc963]

Pause at 6:18 😂 so satisfying how green your lawn is compared to your neighbour

[@philapop5269]

Granular Warning- I have been applying granular fertilizer on my lawn for years (20+ years), and I simply follow the instructions on the bag for my specific spreader. This year I bought a new fertilizer and it did not specify the spreader settings. It turns out that I was a little heavy, and I really messed up my lawn. I have brown, burnt sections all over my yard. The house sits on 1 1/2 acres, so there's lots of brown spots and reseeding that many places is a real pain. I learned my lesson, better to use less than more.

[@edgargomez8662]

Ryan how often do you consider that you can apply taking into account the warm weather in Texas ... very good videos, thanks for sharing

[@NameItBuildIt]

In the morning before 10am or evening after 7pm(as long as it’s not too hot out) Applying every 2 weeks is ideal. You need to have a soil test also to know what your lawn is sufficient or deficient in.

[@Young_Star]

4" of snow coming this Saturday in SE MN. Soil hasn't dried out yet much here. Every time I think I may need to pull out the sprinklers it has rained.

Thanks Ryan, good info I was looking for with this Simple Lawn Solutions. Wish I had noticed Amazon discount before I ordered this, Lol.

[@ryanknorrlawncare]

Next time!

[@Gexxon]

Simplicity at it's best. I've been using liquid fertilizers and liquid irons for my yard for years and it is so easy to upkeep a yard for staying green. I only used granular fertilizers once. When i first bought my house. After that I said NO MORE. lol My busy schedule does not allow for it nor does my back knees. lol I turned to liquids with built in sprayers and my yard stays green throughout the years. It's so ez that i don't have to stress out about what to do or how much to use or do. I love and use liquids for all my landscape needs.

[@jasona7029]

should I mow the lawn before applying the fertilizer? if yes, how short I need to cut the grass?

[@ryanknorrlawncare]

Does not really matter either way.

[@rickrogers2649]

Looking forward to seeing bigger bottles. An average size lawn would need 3 or 4 small bottles and if you applied it frequently it would get real expensive real fast.

[@FescueFreak]

Rick Rogers you can buy these in 2.5 gallons

[@gorgeous814]

😅😅 5:20

[@UniversalHere]

So according to my soil report I need to add 1lb N, 4lb P, and 4lb K per 1000sqft. My fertlizer is 12%N and my lawn in 7000sqft so I need to put down at least 50lbs of my fertlizer. The fertilizer says to mix 1lb with 60 gallons but that's gonna be a lot of work, water, and time. Is it any risk to basically over concentrate the fertlizer into a few gallons in my backpack sprayer and then just run the sprinklers afterwards?

[@tahoefire68]

I watched 2 of your videos on humic acid hoping for an education on the horticultural science of the product. Can you share any info on why the label of simple grow solutions humic acid discourages use of fungicides or pesticides with the humic acid?

[@trentonburd9110]

I'm considering transitioning to a liquid program so I appreciate you sourcing/endorsing a more cost effective option than Next. (nothing against those products) Question on watering in though. You mention the humic should be watered in. Should liquid fert be watered in too? I'm assuming so since you did these back to back, but just want to make sure. Also can I mix their liquid fert, humic and their micro-booster all in the same backpack sprayer? You lawn looks like Wrigley Field. A work of art.

[@ryanknorrlawncare]

It would be a good idea to let the liquid fert sit on the grass leaves for maybe an hour or so and watering it in isn't completely necessary but I like to irrigate after applying as fertilizing a lawn and irrigation both help the grass.

[@ryanknorrlawncare]

As for mixing I haven't tried that one yet. The humic is a bit thicker than the lawn foods so I don't know if it would all mix together or not.

[@Seoul_Brough]

Thanks Ryan! You the man!

[@derekjackson1039]

Looking good just ordered the micro nutrients and applied the humic acid about a week ago. I noticed the difference after adding manure and humic to new Sod that was turning brown. I’m planning to hit it with the micro and humic together and see if I can get it into overdrive

[@kalyanv6577]

Hi Ryan, can you post the link for your hose reel cart. I been looking for good ones. I liked one from eley but it was way too expensive. Thanks

[@alexandru.mindru]

Can you feed the lawn using only liquid fertilizers? Thank you

[@Bluebloods7]

Absolutely. It's pretty much personal preference to be honest. Some love the old method of granular in a broadcast spreader, but some like the liquid method. Neither is necessarily "better" than the other, just don't apply during the heat and direct sun of the day, especially if you're doing liquid as turf burn can occur from the nitrogen systemically being absorbed thru the blades of the grass. Rather, apply early in the morning before the heat of the day, or late evening after the sun and temp have dropped to more comfortable levels (sub-80 F, ideally).

[@alexandru.mindru]

@@Bluebloods7 thank you

[@1975oldschool]

Good stuff. Thanks man!

[@GamingItOldSchool]

Awesome stuff man!!

[@Lawnvolution]

It would be cool if you can calculate the actual amount of nitrogen applied per 1kft2 area for some beginners out there. Just a thought because liquid calculations are different than granular.

[@ryanknorrlawncare]

Yeah I can...most people hate math haha

[@Henrystreator13]

Yes please, Ryan. LCN got me addicted to lawn math.

[@nygrasshole]

George Popa it’s challenging. This is my first full season using liquids and I’m still figuring it out. I like granular for ease but spraying is more direct to where you need it instead of covering a whole yard with stress when it’s just one area. I wish all the sprayers were like the dial styles on the hose. Just turn it to this number and go!!

[@Lawnvolution]

Eric Benigno it is more in depth than just turn dial and go. Walking speed, source water psi, and gpm of sprayer all have to be accounted for proper application.

[@nygrasshole]

George Popa oh yes. Trust me, I know lol. Learning that as I go. Watching all the guys on here and figuring out how to strap that big ass sprayer to my back without it pulling my neck into the ground lol

[@josheakins5137]

Purchased your box from simple lawn solutions. VERY satisfied customer! Where did you get that hose caddy from?

[@HypnotixzK]

Hi Ryan, thanks for this video and the knowledge you pass on. I applied Scott's Weed & Feed granular lawn fertilizer about 2 weeks ago and tonight sprayed on the Simple Lawn Solutions. I realized that the Scott's has 28% Nitrogen and the Simple is at 16%. I wonder if I made the mistake of applying the liquid fertilizer too early? or should I have waited about 30 days for the Scott's to settle before anything else?

[@haroldhesterly2892]

I have areas in the vicinity of a large tree that are thin and showing dirt. How will the two products you used help that area?

[@shockwave402]

Swapping the sprayer head only works if the product you're swapping it to covers the same square footage right? Cause like the liquid aerator covers 32,000 square feet. You'd have to sprint through spraying 3.2oz of that over 3,200sq feet. If you went the same speed as the product that covers 3,200 feet, you'd be applying 10x the amount you need (in the case of the liquid aerator)

[@stelios413]

What soil test do you use? Thinking of getting Soil Savvy kit.

[@hispeed8500]

Any concern of this getting washed out if rain is in the next day's forecast? I know you said to water in 0.5in, so how much rain would be a problem?

[@T_Man-mm9sz]

I've used Milorganite in the past. I like this granular fertilizer because it is bulky. This means that it is more forgiving when spreading as I can make multiple passes and thus the application is more even. Question - If I double the amount of water used when applying 15-0-15 Simple Lawn Solutions ( that is use 2 oz per gallon of H2O instead of 4 oz), but fill the tank sprayer up twice and make two passes so that I am still spraying 4 oz per 1000 sft, will that have any adverse impact on the foliar pick-up of the fertilizer. I'm striving for an even application, but I also don't want to be washing the fertilizer off while I'm applying it. Maybe apply it. Wait a couple hours, then make the second pass?

[@Anthony-bg2pe]

I’m debating on switching to a liquid solely due to the grading on my lawn. I try to get the granular slowly watered in but seems it’s all going to my low spots that move the water to the front lawn. Thanks for the video.

[@carolynmcclain1637]

Hi Ryan, love your channel. My lawn is 2664 sq. Ft. Could you tell me how many ounces should i remove from bottle for my lawn. I bought a scotts drop spreader, but afraid to use it for granular fertilizer not sure of the settings I cant walk very fast, and think liquid would be easier. Thank you for your help, Kay.. i think i answered my own question. I think i remove 5 ounces..

Hi Ryan. Happy New Year. I am dealing with a new "fugly" lawn, an overgrowth of weeds with patches of grass. My question is should I just spend this season concentrating on all of my weed issues or can I work with dealing with both the weeds and promoting new grass growth? I am in no rush for certain results but would gladly put the time and work in for the best possible outcome.

[@ryanknorrlawncare]

You can do both at the same time. If you check out my small project lawn series you'll see I'm working on both

[@julianesai]

Great... thank you.

[@joecosenza1473]

Cam you do this in July also or just spring Time

[@oybekjava1747]

Did they change hose sprayers? When I ordered mine (May-ish from Amazon) I received a white sprayer that didn't have the settings yours does. It blew through the product before I even had a chance to blink. I think I dumped a whole bottle on less than 1000sgft of yard. Luckily it didn't hurt the lawn. When I went to the second bottle, even with the water turned down I felt like I was running up and down my yard trying to get the correct coverage. Watching you spray at a somewhat leisurely pace has me wondering if it was me or the sprayer.

[@ryanknorrlawncare]

It depends on the product....They have been working with sprayers to try to dial in a pace on it so maybe you got one that was too fast. Their customer service is fantastic so send an email in with what happened and I'm sure they will take care of you.

[@SteveYoung359]

Ditto to what John said. Just picked some up myself as well! Should have done math though before buying, turns out I needed 1.8 bottles to do it properly, but I think 50% application is better than a 0% one. Yea? How late in the year can we apply this?

[@ryanknorrlawncare]

Humic really anytime the ground is not frozen. Fertilizer any time before grass stops growing

[@biggestsin54]

Can i apply this fertilizer right after overseeding?

[@rudy5454]

Would you recommend washing or spraying the lawn with water right after you apply the liquid fertilizer to get it down into the soil? Or just leave it be? Also is it a good idea to take the liquid fertilizer out of the bottle and transfer it into my hand sprayer and spray it that way as I can get more out it by using the hand bottle sprayer? Just curious.

[@Bluebloods7]

The liquid fert should be irrigated with 1-2 inches of water after application. Some uptake will occur on the grassplant, but most of it will happen systemically into the root system, slowly over time as the fert works its way down into the soil and root structure of the lawn. If you're using the bottles like Ryan used in this video, no need to transfer anything unless you just absolutely hate these bottles for some reason, but they're made specifically to work well with these liquid products, with an easy on/off setting as well as water only, but do whatever works for you.

[@shaunslawn4286]

Hi Ryan, how long would you say it takes before noticing changes in the lawn from Humic acid? I'm looking to add it to my seaweed treatments to increase the microorganisms but it's one of those it seems you have to put on, based on faith and look at it as a long term point.

[@ryanknorrlawncare]

I can tell you the renovation are that I completed (and the area you see me spraying in this video) has established in record time and is very thick. It's hard to say exactly what happened there but I believe multiple humic/fulvic apps last fall moved this along quickly and helped with root development.

[@Aerialphotovito]

Nice video so just a question how often are you applying these products and are they a supplement to your regular fert schedule or is this all you plan on using? Thanks Ryan keep up the good work

[@LonghornsLegend]

I'm not an expert but I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night so I'd say they are amazing as a supplement to your regular feedings. Unlike liquid fertilizers like Miracle Gro or Scotts this stuff isn't as highly concentrated with Nitrogren so it's a good mix for a foliar spray with a granular between feedings. Then again I have a Bermuda lawn so we can really push the Nitrogren. I use Milo + Ringer in granules every 2 months and this stuff every 30 days.

[@ryanknorrlawncare]

I still recommend you utilize some granular at key times of the year and if you want to use liquids for a little boost or targeted apps throughout the year then that is a great way to do it. The humic/fulvic could be applied more often and especially with each fert app you do whether it's granular or liquid.

[@tonygross21]

I used Scott’s. And burned the hell out of my yard. Not doing that again. Just going to do liquid feed from now on

[@malachymulhall8012]
