Cracking video, really happy I found your channel. I have spent the last three weeks going back to zero in my lawn due to moss, weeds, poa, clover. You name it, it was in there. I have treated what left of the the lawn and what to start seeding and applying the jacks magic. Could I ask, what is the fabric you use to cover the seed bed and how long do you keep it down? Thanks.

Looking forward to these results Dan. Keith has got his garden looking fantastic and of course you too with the lawns.

been waiting for this! nice job guru

[@stevenbelcher5658]

Really useful and detailed video. I love the care put into what you do. How long can you keep the fleece covers on for? I seeded with bent / fescue and I'm worried about removing them as animals will dig out the rootzone unless its fully covered. any bare spots look like a toilet to animals. The grass germinated in about 10 days but is still coming up. It's 17 gsm thickness so i'm hoping I can leave it on for 5 weeks until it needs cutting (2-3 inches height). Would that be ok to do?

[@DanielHibbertLawnExpert]

Couple of week i think was two years ago last year it was a week

[@stevenbelcher5658]

@@DanielHibbertLawnExpert Thanks a lot!

[@budge716]

How long do you keep the fleece on roughly? I've covered my lawn with a fleece to protect against pigeons feasting and hopefully speed up germination.

do you find the concrete touching at the edges when warm sucks the life out of lawn edges? wood and such edges are cooler less thirsty

Yes as theres hardly any soil due to the haunch at 45 degree angle, concrete seems to get much hotter than natural stone too,

How come you don't use the Landzie spreader to put the topdressing on would save a lot of time

[@HayzeeHayes]

Dan does it manually by hand as not everyone can afford gardening equipment or have storage space. Therefore shows how it can be done with only basic tools.

Hi just a seley question is that polythene you put over it all

[@DanielHibbertLawnExpert]

Its fleece

[@daneselvadorai5657]

Just wondered was the fleece underlay on one of the projects just to stop worms? Will that not stop the root establishment? I’m just about to do a new lawn from scratch and wondered if it was worth putting a fleece underlay down before the topsoil? I have room for 3 inches of top soil to go down, thanks

[@th3manias]

Helps stop birds eating the seeds.

[@daneselvadorai5657]

Yeah I know that but on one of the other renovations which had bad worm cast Dan put some under the root zone, just wondered how much soil would be needed on top of that?

[@DanielHibbertLawnExpert]

Yes just for the worms, root depth might be affected but im hoping they will attach to it and grow through , doesnt look like its having a negative affect but deffo cured the worm issue

Lovely job as always Dan 🙂Just wondering about watering, what kind of frequency / time are we talking about?

[@DanielHibbertLawnExpert]

I watered before seeding after seeding then it didnt get watered till yesterday and we have germination so it doesnt need flooding everyday

How did u manage to get jacks magic the old formula? How do u rate the field compost u were using recently? I tried some of the new jacks magic recently when overseeding my lawn...it was very different to the old jacks magic

Old jacks still available at various garden centres depends how many pallets they bought, the new jm full of white chippings if it wasnt for that it would be fine, taking covers off field compost in 2 days so will know more then

Great video as always Daniel. Quick question, is it to late to remove my current lawn and lay new one? I started doing what you have done in the video but there is just too much POA/AMG to be patching. I’m better off just taking it up and starting again with the methods and products outlined in your vids. Just wasn’t sure if I’ve missed the boat this year and I’m now best off waiting until next spring? Im based in the North East UK. Keep up the great videos and fantastic products. My current lawn is loving the Steller and GG.
