I have joked about my “chemically dependent “ lawn. Looks like I may be right. Thanks for the info.

[@StoneyRidgeFarmer]

it's true!!! All this plugging, aeration, fertilizing, weed killer and such is just a huge money pit!! If you get the soil right....you don't need to pour all that garbage on the land.....create the environment for drought tolerant healthy soil ecosystems! It's cheaper and super simple!

[@ClickinChicken]

that's funny, and clever.

[@sunshine3914]

I was blessed to have known a 97-yr-old agricultural wizard. He said the best fertilizer you’ll ever use is horse manure mixed with seaweed. Just be warned that your neighbors won’t be very happy about it.

[@donthompson4912]

Excellent video for Regenerative Agriculture

[@rtmdlawncare5774]

It’s work for sure. Gotta check your soil to know what to throw down. Great info Josh.

[@timothyontengco7091]

Josh, thanks for visiting Maine and talking TYM tractors- from Maine Deputy Sheriff Tim O.

[@Beeloft]

I’m really enjoying the channel. I watched some of your older videos and you have really improved on your presentation. Looking forward to get my own property in the next 2 years. Keep the great info coming. Thank you for sharing. Way to keep it positive.

Thanks again Josh for another great video. Always learn when viewing your channel.

[@viralprimenetwork]

This video helps a lot with most especially those who really do farming! Great info! Thank you for sharing.

[@terresiagregg9326]

Good morning Josh hope you have an awesome day and rhanks for sharing videos with us

[@seansysig]

Josh that is sound advice! 6-7ph is perfect for my Kentucky Bluegrass up hear in Upstate NY. I aerated my soil and added sand to my clay soil to promote drainage as our 1/2 acre pond is 20’ above and behind our lawn. It was full of clover before amending my soil. Now in the spring the snow melts away without the lawn being soupy. It then turns into lush green grass and firm under foot. The grass has choked out the clover and most of the dandelions. I’ll try the amendments you used on my 1/2 acre side lawn as it gets full sun and is more acidic and brown spots of hard pan. Thanks for sharing your passion and knowledge.

[@kevinilg2657]

As always I appreciate the videos, very helpful 🇺🇲

[@scottsmith6846]

Hey Josh thank you for the video I enjoyed it and what you are saying there is so very true woo

[@ShortbusMooner]

Thanks for sharing this! I've just let my yard go 'au natural', to keep chemicals away from my chickens. I picked up a soil rejuvenator for the garden boxes, but didn't know what to do about the grass! 🙏🏻💪🙏🏻

[@terresiagregg9326]

Its awesome the info in your videos thanks so much for your help

[@tommybounds3220]

Thank you for the video

[@gabrielfarm7712]

Always good stuff

[@ronneitzel2869]

GREAT video, it sounds like your quoting my book but doing it the scientific way. 100% correct. "my book" The Green Wizards Guide" says this in a far more simpler way. Thanks for the video Josh more people need the know and think this way.

Nice 👍👌 Super information 🇮🇳🥰

Love your videos. Have you looked into the fungal compost tea? I believe it is created from the Johnson-Su compost reactors that emphasize fungal compost instead of bacterial compost.

[@davidhaskins9457]

Hey Josh liking your videos, just wondering if you test your soil to find out what nutrients it needs? I do a few acres of food plots for our deer,turkey and other wildlife getting soil ph is very important so you don't waste fertilizer, take care you got an awesome setup

[@bay9876]

Only time I needed a PHD was in the compost, piled high and deep. With all that rain and snow you'd thing that spreading lime on the fields might be a good idea. The rain washes out all the calcium.

[@batpherlangkharkrang7976]

Hi.... Josh, thank you for showing your video homestead 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋 👕🐔🐓🐣🐥🐕🐈🐄🐝🐠🐟🎣 🌱🏡🎥👍👍👍

[@ClickinChicken]

You do the same thing if you expect to get honey from bee hives, aerate and broadcast clover, white Dutch and make effort for flower gardens. Last year when I just depended on highway flowers did nothing my yield was jack chit. X 3 hives! So upsetting. That's up north though..

[@donmartin7728]

Curious what the other 89% is? Could be introducing junk with 89% fillers.

[@williamwalters581]

I'm thinking about mixing green paint and Roundup together and spraying it! Mowing isnthe biggest waste of time and money!

[@makinhay2735]

What fertilizer or plant food do you use on your pasture or hay ground?

[@melaniekeen3611]

Chicken crap and horse manure works well

[@FarmallFanatic]

People with weedy lawns usually mow it too low

[@ClickinChicken]

I have a counter tip from the 'Deli Man' lol. Milorganite Slow-Release Nitrogen Fertilizer It's from Milwaukee, WI, municipality. Just a tip, check it out.

[@pawpaw0906]

Will it help compaction

[@DonnieDarko727]

I like to plant my grass one seed at a time by hand a la Johnny Appleseed. Cheaper and builds work ethic. So much sweat equity, I'm rich!

[@jalopyjoe4483]

Was hear Wooooo!

[@michaelsilva8854]

You should get up with how to with doc the fellow you tuber he grows great grass ! I find that good cultural practices like you mentioned will cure most problems. Good vid thanks Josh !

[@GFY_withJohn]

Thoughts on compost tea?

[@stuartkorte1642]

How many samples do you get for the lawn? My current lawn is the size of your tractor and needs chemical free help. Future home will be 2 ac. so this information is great.

[@StoneyRidgeFarmer]

a quick google search will help you my friend

[@toddpacheco4748]

Some people just can’t get it Josh ❤😊🚜

[@gregfuller4318]

What if you have a lot of walnut trees fast acting lime to get ph right but still have trouble getting the grass seed to grow and germinate

[@AaricHale]

Walnuts put off a chemical called juglone which will cause other plants not to grow so the lime will not help .

[@David_Ely]

Since your farm is in NC, you must have buttercup. What do you do to minimize this invasive pasture weed?

[@waynemacquarrie9833]

How are you going to app Supersoil ? how much a bag?

[@davidporter9556]

Fertiliser does not kill the worms. Yes u definitely do need to keep the ground above 6ph an definitely shudnt gather the grass clippings but fertiliser doesn’t kill the worms

[@trystrat]

Where did you buy the ph ast cal in Rockingham county? Is this a product anyone can buy?

[@StoneyRidgeFarmer]

Green resource colfax ...tell them you saw it on Stoney Ridge Farmer youtube channel! They love hearing it!

[@oklahomachris6298]

Just making an observation not casting a judgment but I thought you didn’t do this when you were doing regenerative farming. If you put this on your lawn is it not gonna leach into other parts of your farm. Or am I mistaken and this is organic fertilizers may have missed that part?

[@heavenlyfarms]

This has turned into the Farm Infomercial Channel!!! Are there any videos where Josh is just not promoting some crap???

[@williamgaines9784]

At 11:13 you hit a little bump and bounced a goodly wad of your "supplement" on the ground. If that were a high nitrogen fertilizer, you'd have a burn spot there...with the minerals, unlikely. The calcium supplement is necessary as the cattle, or whatever your "crop" may be, are taking it from the greens and turning it into bone and muscle, which is then permanently removed when they are removed. As you build your soil, supplementation should become less and less, but you will always have a deficit when you harvest. If you knew how many tons of minerals were within your export, you would know how much you need to import. I am sure someone has a formula. Transient creatures, wildlife, may make excess deposits or withdrawals, but unless you just have a huge temporary influx of them, it should balance out over time.

[@Matt-fo5xj]

so if I have compacted soil and I run a spike roller lightly over to open up the soil a small bit that's bad ? don't use poisons on farm

[@santasshop6093]

Hey Josh, where are you purchasing Phast Cal from? Thanks

[@StoneyRidgeFarmer]

I went to their site and ordered it, but rather than granule form it came as a dust to add to water, now I'm confused

[@goldblueberries326]

Do you have any fire ants on the farm? I'm told that fire ants spread in acidic soils? My hope is to load up my red clay soil with lime to help adjust the acid content of my red NC red clay?

[@donmartin7728]

Why not use the electric tractor to spread?😊

[@cadillacedwards2450]

What is the best grass seed to use

[@sunshine3914]

Depends upon your climate.

[@brianhillis3701]

Depends on what the grass is for, climate, soil type. If lawn vs pasture. Native grasses to your area are a good thing to investigate they are adapted.

I always warn visitors that if you are planning to have kids, you should not walk barefoot in my lawn. The only thing I am concerned about is the grubs. I never used grub preventer until one year I has patches 10' in diameter that would just peel up like a rug from the grubs. I was also told get rid of the grubs you also get rid of the moles.

For a product that's not supposed to be messy there's a whole lot of dust all over that red tractor.

I'd want to know what that "Other" 89% is as well before I'd even think of using it, not just laugh it off.

[@jakescorpion1]

Dang you could almost eat dat...

[@lanefarms6237]

Do you think people that fertilize their lawns care about the soil ph or nutrient needs? No they are paying for a service to keep a green yard, that's all they care about.

[@shaka1377]

So this is just lime stop it!

[@danwilkening888]

One more thing a chemically enhanced lawn needs is a ton of water!!

[@Jwayne1020]

Thanks for the video and info. However, the 89% of other ingredients alarms me.. That seems like a high percentsage. Like the are only wanting to tell you the 11% of good ingredients. Almost like our the food industry of America. Everything is so misleading, just appealing to the eye to get you to buy it

[@DonnieDarko727]

Does a healthy ecosystem include moles and gophers? Lol

[@DonnieDarko727]

Unsightly, but you could just hire the homeless from San Fran to fertilize the land on the regular. "Groundskeepers." Lol
