Hey Pete, You may not want to hear this..........but my Christain friends and I mow each other's yards when we are away on vacation or out of town unexpectedly. That way we stay on schedule with mowing. Bless you Brother as you catch-up on your yard!!!

Looks good. Nice recovery of a excess growth situation. I did it last week, its just what you do to give people (their grass actually) what it needs. mowed Tuesday, got caught in torrential rain and made a mess. Went back Thursday to blow off and pick up the mess. I know of one other outfit in my area that cares THAT much about the grass health.

That yard is just amazing lol. Damn thats some good grass.

[@Dustin922]

Best way I’ve found when I come across an overgrown lawn is to do the initial cut then take the big backpack and blow a bunch of small piles and rake up what I can. Then follow up with a second cut.

[@cameronandersonsr]

Thanks Pete for letting me know that those seeds were tall fescue plants...I thought they were weeds. I keep asking myself self, where did all these weeds come from? I am glad you told us.

[@denisbrisebois7658]

Very nice ! Have a wonderful Memorial Day Weekend Pete !!!

[@Mikebike68]

For this situation my tip is to mow slower, especially if it’s moist, to give the deck more time to feather out the clippings evenly... and maybe go at it with a different direction on 2nd pass.

Congrats on the wedding anniversary. Me and my wife just celebrated our 20th on May 23rd. Btw, I ordered the 5 gallon RGS from you today. Looking forward to spraying mine and my parent's lawn. Also, please keep us updated on your N-ext testing. I've experienced the same thing, tall damp grass, I started out mulching, but it was too tall and damp, so I bagged the grass so that I wouldn't have to deal with those wet clumps of grass. I'm aware about returning the clippings to the grass, but I erred on the safe side. I worked too hard renovating my lawn to jack it up now.

[@michaelnichols2564]

Great videos. I’ve never had a lawn that looks as good as yours, but I’ve had to deal with super tall, thick grass where it looks like the discharge chute is making hay bales. To keep the mower from bogging down, I would make a pass in the center of the yard, then only throw my clippings to where I had already cut, and sometimes only use the left 1/2 of the deck to cut so the other half could cut the clippings finer before they came out of the discharge chute.

[@Doober80]

Man that is some tall grass. Thick too. I just may have to do some odd jobs so I can afford to get in the Academy and get on a program. I am just doing things here and there; not so much of a real program. My lawn looks good, but holy moly! Your lawn is on a whole new level! Thanks for sharing bro, hope have a nice holiday weekend!

Welcome home, Pete! Glad you had a good anniversary/vacation with your wife and no kids. ;-) I'm glad that you showed what is a tall fescue seed looks like because I saw something like that in my yard and thought it was anna poa weeds so I bagged my grass when I cut it so as not to spread that weed in my yard. Maybe in another video you could compare the two (the seed and the weed) to make sure everyone who might incorrectly identify a fescue seed for a weed like I did knows the difference. Vacation's over, Pete. Back to work! :-)

[@GCITurf]

Sounds like a good video bro!

[@kleenk8]

Totally enjoy your videos, and have learned much...even though I have Bermuda, and it is looking fantastic. You have a beautiful place as well. I am just a regular guy...retired. I am not in the roofing business either. I can't help but notice you have roof mold on probably the north side of your house. Your neighbors have it too. Very common down here in GA. It usually shows up on the north side of homes. I had it as well. Had a roof cleaner take care of it. It was inexpensive, and done in a couple of hours. My roof looks brand new. The guy just used a spray, with no pressure washing or scrubbing. He told me it would be back in a few years unless he puts a copper strip on my roof. I declined. Told him I have enough holes in my roof...haha. It has been about 4 years, and there is just a hint of it coming back. Going to give him a call to remove it. It was a great investment IMO. When you get a chance look up roof mold. You will see why you should remove it from your roof. Again, totally enjoy your insights and videos!

[@johngritman4840]

In northern Ohio we use creeping re fesscue, perrenial rye and blue grass. I pretty much did what you do with a bit of exception. I cut all year at 3 1/2" and when I went on vacation I might "forget" to mow be fore I went. Coming home after two weeks, I cut the grass as high as I could. - about 5 1/2" on day one, if it doesn't "clump" I will recut it in two days at 5" and recut every two days until I get down to 3 1/2". Each cut is at right angle to the previos cut. So I end up "mulching" the grass but the clippings are dispersed LIGHTLY. I use a lawn service for fertilize and weed control. The material is organic and the folks that do the service are a bit OCD. I used to get a call out of the blue "How's your lawn doing? Go barefoot and look around. And call back." Now, being properly trained, I do so. I have some neighbors who have bird feeders and their seed contains thistle. NUT! But there is a very simple way to deal with these weeds: Use a small - 1 to 1 1/2 quart - sprayer and wet thm down. Then sprinkle some ordinary table salt on them. In two dayss, or less, they are black and DEAD. My service also tests the soil every year. When the lawn is just down right aweful - which seems to be the case every time I move - I plug aerate and slit seed for two years in a row. The cheapest thing you will ever put on your lawn is good grass seed. With this house, the lawn was aweful so I had the service take some samples and send them out to the lab - way alkaline. We put some sulfur down and the problem was solved. To put in the perrenial beds in the back of the house, I had a real challenge - no topsoil and my house is built on the ridge of a large quarry so there were lots of rocks. Schneebor makes a great rake with teeth that are far apart - great for picking rocks. Then a lot of peat moss, Millorganite, Sweet Peet and Holly Tone - and I mean a lot. Till it in and then mulch - twice a year for the first two years and then once a year thereafter.

[@kevinleese8325]

Yea what he said Pete, hearing protection do it. Also wanted to say you are a stand up guy for not omitting this situation you had with being gone for your anniversary and having clumps laying on your turf. Some other guys might have call the crew over to the emergency and got it taken care of and not showed off a real world situation we all run into. Even though you care so much about your turf you took time out to go with the wife and make an anniversary trip.

[@josephcason5844]

Buy a chute blocker for your mower.Bag and make a compost pile or compost your grass and then reuse the compost. Natural fertilizer.

[@reallybadaim118]

It's hard having a tall thick lawn and leaving it. I'd have to have someone cut it for me because I have to mow every 4 days with this Bermuda lawn in Texas. It's going to be 105 here next week and under my pecan trees I have a patch of St. Augustine that is in an epic battle with Bermuda. And the only way St.Augustine hangs around is it in partial shade.

[@harrywilliams5913]

Pete, Enjoy your videos. I am fairly new to mowing and I had client that would let their grass which use to be good turf grow to a height that I thought I was in a paddock. It took most of the day on a Toro 48" but what we did was start at the highest setting (5") and cut in opposite directions. Now we are Mulching so a little different to side discharge, but we would then lower the setting by 1/2" and do the same procedure, same lines. Until we go to within 1/2" of desired height for the grass species, then lower the setting by 1/4 ". For some of the grasses that I am mowing have a recommended cut height of 2" and I usually cut those at 2 and 3/4", but there is very little moisture on either the ground or grass when I do this, so it maybe of assistance, it may not. Usually get the clumping if there is moisture somewhere.

[@bgarcia856]

Just so you know I just bought my 1st zero turn (hustler 54") and cut my fescue at 3 inches. Now I gotta wait until I'm at about 6 inches so I can it at 4.5 ... I'm dying to use my new mower! Maybe I'll fert and water it tomorrow lol

I have been blessed beyond measure. Love is a verb; the action of one's will. And this from a confirmed bachelor who lived by himself for nine years.

[@dmoro67]

I don't bag the clippings either, nor do I have a mulching blade. I run into the same thing in the spring where you can't move often enough it seems and the grass gets really high. My solution is similar. I cut twice but I have a pull behind sweeper to pick up the excess clippings. I was hand raking but the sweeper works pretty well for me.

Mowing one's lawn is sooo therapeutic.

[@outerspaceslandscapellc]

hey....Mr. Pete. i think what i would do in your situation i would have let the clumps dry up and re mow it instead of blowing it. depends on the heat and how quick the clumps dry out. if you really want some "throw" on the discharge run an x blade set up with high lift. it will send clippings 2x as far, great video and love your property that fescue it awesome.

[@GCITurf]

Thats exactly what I did. I just blew out where the clumps were matted down

[@daflea66]

Its great to see someone mowing, double cutting, and taking the time to fluff up matted and clumped up grass the right way. I've been mowing this way since forever so it is second nature. Just how I know it should be done. I see "pros" mowing in my neck of the woods leaving that mess behind for a full week or more. It makes me cringe. They get the same matted mess trying to bag an entire property, too. So why even bother with the bag part? I do not know.

[@brading84]

#GetYourYardRight really enjoy your videos, your tips have helped me out with my 4 acres of grass, Keep it coming!

[@captainlarrynosleepfishing5350]

Pete you need a walker mower man! It will pick it all up 😎

[@bobbybrown614]

Mow in race track pattern just this once no nice stripes. Blow all clippings inward then you can chop them up real good and rake up whats left if its too heavy. Or just bag it. Sure your taking some nutrients but better than the dead spots from the lawn being buried in clippings.

[@paigetoole3425]

if you idle down the mower it will not clump as bad, especially when the turf is moist

[@chrisryan8863]

Hi brother. This video was helpful. Would you mind in your next video sharing more specifically how to differentiate between a weed (such as poa annua) and the grass seeding as it gets tall? If you had said that was the TTF grass I would have thought that was poa annua. I have had some of that in my yard this spring in New Hampshire because I haven't been using pre emergents because I have been doing so much overseeding.

[@jamiefeyen7316]

Start mowing higher on first cut, cut it each day and drop the deck each time tell you get back to the right height.

[@cbell9100]

Mulching works if you mow more often and it's better to do in the warm environments where grass can grow all year

[@biggunn770]

I just cut it, then run the lawn sweeper over it when I let it go to long. But my grass is not anything like Pete's lawn. I dont treat it and it's just domestic plants (weeds mixed with grass). I just try to keep it looking as nice as I can with what I have.

[@philipgriffin8827]

Nice bud👍

[@geneduclos4003]

I feel your pain brother. I'm cutting my grass at a minimum of twice a week. Even at that frequency, I sometimes have to bag, if the weather was favorable for growth just to avoid the clumping. At least my compost pile appreciates the extra clippings.

[@james-jl2ej]

What I absolutely hate is that when I mowed semi thick or semi long grass the tires of my riding mower mat down the grass and it doesn't look good! And I don't remember having trouble with grass getting matted down last year it seems to be more of a problem this year

[@lechandler4041]

With the outstanding turf you have, I'm suprised you don't have a quality reel mower.

[@johnshorba]

Im not sure where you are but in the eastern united states i cut like 3 inches and it grows to about 8-9 inches every week, on fertilized yards like 11-13 inches

[@barrywuthrich8530]

I'm wondering if it may have been less work to just bag it this one time and put the clippings in the compost pile. I'm sure you would have had to empty the bag almost every other pass, but you would have avoided having to deal with all the clumps. Really nice yard. Your hard work is paying dividends.

[@GCITurf]

[@grahamwaddell5371]

Morning. I am enjoying your videos. Question. Do you always cut at a height of 4.5 inches? That seems pretty high to me. Also, if you do not collect the cuttings does the high cut height prevent thatching & moss growing? Maybe this is a specific issue for wet Scotland? Good wishes Graham

[@billsimmons9320]

#GetYourHeightRight

[@fracmath3934]

Pete would it not be advantageous to cut the high grass with an intersecting diagonal pattern. With this method you are cutting and recutting all in the same step. I do this with my lawn when it gets too high and using this method I do not get the clumps of grass left behind. Also it is easier on the mower because it is cutting high grass for short intervals.

[@NoRoads2AllRoads]

Im get those same clumps of grass after I mow... First time I have need to bag all the time otherwise my mower can't mulch. Even after 2 days of sunny days and dry, the soil just keeps "sweating" making the grass wet and clumping the mower... what a pain!!!

[@NoRoads2AllRoads]

enp83 afternoon like 3-4pm because of what you just said. To avoid the humidity/wetness from morning time. Freshly sharp blades and clean deck as well

[@Shemdoupe]

man that is a thicccccc lawn

[@Stegs]

Pete, with heat stress in a TTTF yard, is it ok to water during the hottest part of the day for 15 or 20 min just to "cool" the turf down? I know you dont want TTTF to be wet which leads to brown patch, but i think if i watered it at 1 or 2pm it will be completly dry by 5. Is this a good idea?

[@GCITurf]

Stegs I have a video from last year about cooking the grass off. I’ll try and find ot

[@travismorgan9273]

Spraying a PGR before you leave sure would help.

[@GCITurf]

I do not put PGR"s on my yard.. We do it for clients from time to time though

[@goofyfootfour1seven739]

You've made me move my deck all the way up to about 4 1/2 inch cut. My yard looks pretty nice this yr. I've always mowed low. Never again. I like to leave my clippings on my grass as well. I do think the, this might have been a time to mow inwards as much as possible to try to get some wind rows then hand rake the yard after first cut. I know it sucks. I use to hand rake my yard all the time, every mow. ( not doing that again).but I do think that's one of those times where not having a bigger (like me) hand raking might save you DAYS of extra traffic on that pretty yard. Plus it'll fluff up your yard to allow air flow through the stems. What's your thoughts on that?

[@cwl020584]

Pete! Are you not using the Big League roller on the ZK anymore!?

[@GCITurf]

Charlie Lancaster I do. But I do not use it every time I mow Especially when the grass is this deep

[@davidcranford7382]

Question? What mower has the highest settings for cutting TTTF. Looking for a z-turn that would cut y’all. Is something available that mowes 6inches?

[@GCITurf]

David Cranford Wright ZK cuts at 5.5”. But I feel 4.5” is plenty high for fescue

[@sbcncsu]

My Toro Vacupower mower only cuts at 3.25 inches. It's too nice a mower to replace it. I guess my yard will have to be stressed.

[@Legendary_UA]

Larger tires perhaps?

[@springguntunes]

Brother Pete, I know you are a Pros Pro. But please use hearing protection. I didn't use it in industry and now I have constant ringing in my ears. The worst part is I can't always hear what my wife says. That creates a cluster of knots on my head. 3M earplugs are what I use. Maybe if I took them out I could hear her better. I don't know man.

[@GCITurf]

99% of the time I have my head phones on....just did not for some reason here. Great advise!!!

[@JWNLawnCare]

Rob Hawkins I agree, my grandpa has tinnitus now because he used to be a metal worker and they didn't have proper ear protection back then. No one goes near my equipment without all proper PPE. If you lose your ears or your eyes you never get them back so protect them all you can ;D

[@FishFind3000]

JWN Lawn Care yea I have a little bit of tinnitus. When it’s quiet I can hear it when there’s some more background noise it’s not bad or really noticeable. I’ve had hear issues since I was a kid so I was screwed from the start but not I try to take care of myself. I’m almost 22 and already have this shit. At least it’s not bad but you don’t want it.

[@x-man5056]

I use radio ear muffs, 3M I think. They were a little pricey but worth it. I have Tinitus from years of working with Military aircraft when young and not so conscientious. I am fanatical about Protective equipment now. Always wear hearing, eye and hand protection (gloves) now (and for last couple decades). Unfortunately, sun protection a must now also, 50SPF on face and arms, longs pant and real shoes, no flip-flops, very large brim cowboy style hat. Yes, I look ridiculous but when I shut the equipment down, I can hear, see, and not have to head to dermatologist for more cutting/freezing. I wish I wasn't so tough when I was young, it's the hard way to get smart. Young macho guys, are you listening?

[@jimdavidson5208]

What?

[@waynewilliams1726]

I think if you tried to bag that you would be frustrated with a clogged bagger hose. I wonder how a lawn sweeper might work at fluffing up your lawn?

[@MyrickWillard7]

Pete, I'm so glad you talked about that Fescue seed head at 3:15I have some of this in my yard and I didn't know what it was... some people told me it was Poa Triv and some said Quackgrass... and one guy did tell me it was a Fescue seed head like your just said. .But I still have some questions about this, and I figure you know as much about Fescue as anybody, so I wanted to ask you....1.) What makes that one long stem with the seed head grow so tall (like 8" in 5-6 days)?2.) In my yard, these are only in some places here and there and not growing out of every Fescue plant...I have some places where these are every 3-4" and then some places where there is none at all? What makes them grow out of some Fescue plants but not others?3.) After mowing, when these are chopped off, can they germinate like regular grass seed?4.) One thing that made one person tell me this was POA Triv was that the Seed Head on mine has "purple" edges like I've heard that POA Triv does...or maybe I'm confused???. I wish you had a video on this, lol.

[@matthewhartup941]

I'm not sure what you had that had seed heads with purple edges, but that's not tall fescue, sounds more like a bermuda grass seed head to me. TTF seed heads are light green, they're also sterile so they won't germinate. They will add some good organic material back into the turf when you mow.

[@jamiefeyen7316]
