I'm TIRED of My Grass Growing SO FAST! // STOP Grass Growing with PGR

[@SpearoXFishing]

Been a long time viewer and to see you so happy about your family, dog (makes it for me), property, projects and your general satisfaction, it just makes my day. I have just bought a property here in Adelaide and I am following your tips and already it makes a difference. I'm so stoked to see you and the way you care about everything because it makes me that little bit happier. Cant wait for more vids. Cheers bro. (from a Kiwi to an Aussie. I appreciate it).

Thanks so much mate, means a lot!

Keeeeen to see that bore go in mate. Fingers crossed it's good stuff. We lived very remote a few years ago and our bore (via a windmill) was so salty it rusted the cutlery in the house haha. The Kikuyu took it well (pun intended)

[@LawnTips]

haha that's crazy man!

That sprayer has been on my "to buy list" for ages! Can't wait to see how it holds up.

It’s getting to be Fall season here where I’m at in the US and temps are in the mid to low 60s. I love seeing your channel as an outlet for me since the lawn is growing so slow right now. 😂

[@EliseRox235]

the quality of these vids are just next level !

[@Nico-qt4qz]

Did my Reno on my Kikuyu about 2 weeks ago Thursday and the growth is on par. Incredible how it can take that much punishment and bounce back so quick.

[@rainey06au]

I mowed today, I hope you're proud of me haha

[@brekkoh]

When you mention rinsing the unit and flushing the nozzles where does that waste water need to go?

[@chadfleming8234]

Great Vid Ben! I have a similar tow behind from Northern Tools in the States 21gl. The one thing you did not mention in the vid was the PSI you choose to get your rate at X:KM per hour. I have been using 40psi @ 3mph for 1gl per 1K and it seems to be pretty close. I am very interested in your nozzle replacement choice and how to change them out. Please keep us updated and make a vid on that once you get there. As always I appreciate all your content! Peace and God's Love! Chad Upstate NY

[@troycampbell5732]

Your an absolute gem mate. Well done

[@krump743]

Sounds like you have the oppurtunity to test a gps robot mower, for that area. Wonder how that would go.

[@gregwhitney6509]

Love the videos! Especially as we here in the US are heading into dormancy. Question for you, those white PPE coveralls that you use when spraying herbicide; do you wash those in the laundry and reuse them or is is a one time thing that you just toss? Thanks in advance for the heads up!

[@keriboi]

Primo is a wonder product. Every 2-4 weeks. Any longer and the growth rebounds hard. I do find at Kikuyu rates it can be quite smelly and the smell can stick around. Add is a little N and Fe and its just amazing. I would still wear a mask. Look forward to seeing the followup video and turf improvements. Sometimes triple rinse takes longer than the spray job. In NZ we have a product called Li1000 that is great for helping with drift

[@calebevans8437]

New plan bro I move into the granny flat and help out with the mowing?? I only need very little money to live and our dogs will learn to get along 🤣🤣

Hey mate, What’s your tips for fixing tyre ruts in your lawn My front lawn is smashed from tradies driving up it lately for my extension. Be curious to know your tips

[@matthewtrynchy1719]

[@patrickmcardle6417]

Hi Ben, if you have a mix of rye and kikuyu, would you take the average base temp of 5? (i.e. rye = 0, kikuyu = 10, therefore use 5)?

[@rcscaler78]

Great video Ben. Calibration can be a real pain in the arse, especially when using multiple nozzle options. Generally we use aquajet nozzles on the course i work at due it constantly being too windy to use the finer nozzles. They give minimal spray drift but put out huge volume (a 700L spraytank helps for that). We also spray pretty much the entire golf course with primo maxx to slow it down but the only downside is,in the long term it creates lots of thatch. I can remember when 20yrs ago some sections of fairways we selectively sprayed every year have now become so spongy that we need to do do something about it.

[@chrismafilovski8352]

Talk to Husqvarna! Maybe they can let you test their GPS based robotic mower system. They also have attachments for their robots to get them down to 10mm cut hight. Some golf courses uses the mowers for their fairways.

Hi mate. I have kenda kikuyu but a few years ago I spread some kikuyu+rye seed. I don't like the rye now so I've been pulling it out as it's taking over the kikuyu. There's too much to pull out so what should I do? Re seed with rye and just live with it? I feel like it's my only option but the section without rye looks amazing.

[@msuave2772]

Hey bud you obviously know what you are doing, would you ever consider using Paclobutrazol over the Trinexapac-ethyl? do you think you could do a video on the comparison between the two? The Paclobutrazol is supposed to last longer as it's a drench. I think you are a great content creator in the space! This pgr business has me thinking about a robot to keep on top of the growth over chemicals might be interesting to see a comparison in these types of lawn aids, probably get you a few more visitors to the channel too with lawn suppression being somewhat of a challenge for the time poor individuals. Know you're busy man yourself. I think you are definitely in the space where you would have considered these option, would love to see this addressed. 👍👍👍

[@saltytree729]

PBZ is used as blue grass suppressant and not really in the same league as TPE Now there is a new pgr out on the market called prohexadone and it is absolutley bloody marvellous, can be combined with TPE and suppresses all seedhead from bluegrass which is honestly a game changer!!
