[@MrTobywoods]

Nice video, shame About your front yard, We have finally had enough good weather we’re I am that the winter grass and rye grass weed is starting to die off, I am letting it dry right out so the Kyke looking a bit thirsty but will come back quick once I start watering, Green and the tiff eagle looking real good!

[@theaussielawn]

I'm glad to hear you are getting some nice sunshine. Im forgetting what it looks like haha

[@wtfwtfwtf7477]

Merry Christmas 🎅 🎄 Lawnies Brenton, Ive come here for my Sunday Sermon on lawn care 😉 19th of December.

[@theaussielawn]

Thanks mate you are always welcome 😂😜

[@huwgough7325]

Glad to hear that you are doing well again. Great vid. The wash out is a pain but that's how the weather repays us sometimes 😩

[@theaussielawn]

yeah its not ideal but hopefully the worst is behind me now and i can focus on getting the grass planted in the new year

[@jasongarbutt4242]

Rain, rain go away. Do you remember shovelling sand back onto bunker faces after each afternoon storm. Oh, those days were fun. Loved the cameos in Dans video. Great video mate

[@theaussielawn]

Hey mate, yeah dont remind me, You'll give me nightmares. Although I seem to recall I managed to find the bunker raker pretty quick and didnt give it up easily haha I cant wait to see dans vid ill tune in after lunch

[@grimesy36]

Loved your work in Dans vid today mate. The best!

[@theaussielawn]

I cant wait to see it Ill be tuning in soon

[@thegreenandgoldlife1464]

Glad to see ya felling better and back on deck mate 👍. Now Ur better you can get onbthe shovel and wheel barrow to get Ur driveway back

[@theaussielawn]

Hmmm ill get back to you that 😂

[@richardportelli1983]

Great update mate, for the driveway it is a good idea to contour the middle like they do on the roads so the water doesn't erode like it did on your driveway.

[@theaussielawn]

Oh thanks Richard thats a good tip 😎 Cheers Legend 🤟

[@paulthomas3782]

Great to see you back on deck mate. Merry Christmas and happy new year. The front yard is going to be awesome.

[@theaussielawn]

Thanks Paul Hope you Had a great Xmas / NY too. Yeah lots to cover this year cant wait

[@Biscuitabuse]

Wow sorry to hear about all the issues you've had with the excess rain, the opposite problem to what I'm dealing with at the moment in Western Victoria (no rain for over a month now). Glad you're feeling better mate, and how interesting with the zoysia plugs almost bringing the substrate with it upwards, great to see it filling in too. Always great content mate.

[@theaussielawn]

Cheers mate yeah its drying up now so hopefully straight after xmas i can get the turf down

[@LushCutLawns]

Looking good man! The washout sux. But Im sure youll smash it in the new year and it will come up a treat.

[@theaussielawn]

Yeah such bad luck hey, Im keen for the new year so I can get some turf down 😎

[@MichaelMickoHeyward]

Worth the cut on the zoysia, would have had to do it eventually… and like you said, it will come back. Predicting that to go bonkers in the next few weeks! Keeeen on that EZ flo size too

[@theaussielawn]

Yeah cruel to be kind haha, I hope it does go bonkers mate i cant wait to see it cut short as a putting surface the EZflo is epic hey that is a great size its like a watermelon

[@jspearm1983]

Great video. I'm into the part of the year in Texas where I have to watch videos of people in Australia mowing their lawns while I wait for warmer weather.

[@jspearm1983]

Should we expect to learn what variety the dwarf Zoysia is this year?

[@theaussielawn]

At this stage that’s the only thing I’m not allowed to say unfortunately mate . I was offered is as a “field trial and assessment “ it’s not yet available for sale here in AUS

[@theaussielawn]

Hope your winter isn’t too cold mate it will be summer before you know it 🤙 have a great Xmas mate cheers Brenton

[@lvond555]

Ouch! That's so terrible that you were washed out like that. I was wondering where you had been. Glad you are back and healthy. It's really exciting to see how the nursery is going. The tiff eagle is looking stellar. Can't wait for the zoyzia to fill in. We have snow on the ground now here in Utah. Keep the excellent content coming!

[@theaussielawn]

Hey Luke stay warm mate, Yeah its terrible hey, But end of the day it cant rain like this for ever 😩 esp in AU haha Bring on the new year cant wait to lay some new turf rolls out and move on to new projects

[@dorse72]

didnt hear, is that a Zeon zoysia green? looks good

[@elementdavid85]

Put some of that roundup power max on it mate, heard its real good stuff lol

[@theaussielawn]

hahahahaha great fert that one

[@2908phild]

How come you don’t use a bent grass or poa on the putting green Brenton?

[@theaussielawn]

My climate is too harsh for the cool season grasses esp for a home putting green, (in a normal season we are very hot and dry) it would be irresponsible to waste that much water on a cool season home green

[@BackyardBushveld]

Lekker video bud! I’d say just get the sod down and touch up afterwards. The sod should help the erosion a lot! And I wanna see some more grass so come on, get to it 😂

[@theaussielawn]

I want it down too mate, With the rain we had the grass would have needed to be down a month to root in enough to not wash out haha. Unfortunately it will be an after christmas job now just in time for mid 40's temps 🤦‍♂️😂😎

[@BackyardBushveld]

@@theaussielawn true. Just a bummer for us all too I guess😂

[@wilsonline90]

how did the zoysia do after the scalp? I did a similar thing here but to low-quality seeded zoysia. It stressed the hell out of the grass. Looking at it now, I think that taking a plug out of those spots would be a great idea, but of course, this is looking afterward. haha But I want to kill my zoysia here and sprig a better cultivar of dwarf zoysia here and that may be a lesson for me. Hopefully next year I will have enough grass to sprig my side lawn. How does the mini zoysia compare to tifeagle in color and beauty? thanks

[@reachpuneetgulati]

Great video Brenton. What kind of underlay would you use for Zoysia if you want to lay down Zoysia?

[@theaussielawn]

Thanks mate Sand is best for zoysia 😎

[@reachpuneetgulati]

@@theaussielawn Sorry for late reply Brenton. Thanks for the info....i wish i had someone knowledgeable like you putting down the grass for me.... :( it's a bit screwed up right now...

[@neiljohncanu6025]

Thanks for the heads up Brenton , also I forgot to mention I recently purchased a Toro Greens Master 1000 it might be ready by the end of the month for delivery. Best wishes to yourself and the family for Christmas / New Year ....

[@theaussielawn]

Thanks mate wow your gunna love the greens master 1000

[@shanebenton3748]

You do sound crook. Get well soon legend. Another great vid

[@theaussielawn]

Cheers mate

[@brodiehowie5]

Good vid mate. Interested to know if the green is still set at 4mm?

[@theaussielawn]

Ive lifted it up to 5mm but may go back to 4.5mm

[@dchall8]

In this day and age, every time someone disappears for a few days, we start thinking the worst. Hope your experience with zoysia is better than mine was. If you're up for another experiment, let the zoysia and the Tif Eagle grow together and see which one dominates. I predict they will blend nicely until there is the slightest problem with the zoysia. At that point it's all over and the Tif Eagle will completely fill in where the zoysia suffered.

[@theaussielawn]

Yeah its true hey we do think the worst, I might try that experiment in a pot at some stage mate 😎

[@zackbeaven8810]

Updates on the Zoysia?

[@theaussielawn]

I’ll do one before winter ❄️

[@philrichmond5919]

It’s all Dan’s fault, sending you kikuyu. That’s going to give you man flu and curse the lawn for sure 😂

[@theaussielawn]

I reckon we just blame him im good with that haha

[@calebevans8437]

Might be time to just take Dan's advice and go with the mighty kikuyu 🤣 he might stop doing the rain dance and cursing your front yard project

[@theaussielawn]

haha not a chance mate 😂

[@renatolopes2019]

What is the result of Zoysia? There is no new video about it.

[@theaussielawn]

I have a feeling there is a little section in this video mate kzbin.info/www/bejne/m4jRlp-Aic91q6s

[@dalewalters4240]

I wondered what had happened to you

[@theaussielawn]

haha man flu strikes 😜

[@daza2020]

First 😂

[@theaussielawn]

hahaha well done mate, 😎

[@neiljohncanu6025]

Good morning Brenton , just a question about the putting green, when you first laid the turf down what HOC were you cutting at before you dropped down to 3.5 mm ??.. Because in September I have bought and laid Tif Tuff Bermuda Hybrid Couch for the front lawn and the backyard as well . The results of this type of grass I am very happy within the investment . Currently grass cutting height at 15 mm Brenton . When do you recommend to lower the HOC ??? It's been a pleasure viewing your Turf Channel my friend, keep up the good work and looking forward to the next upcoming videos. take care and be safe ...

[@theaussielawn]

Hi Neil, Thanks for your message Gee no you have me thinking from memory Im pretty sure I set myself targets e.g 15 down to 12 down to 10 down to 8 etc then after 8 I took it as low as i could on my scotty which is 6ish mm in between those too. I reckon my upcoming tiff front lawn project will be ideal for you. As i will be aiming to get it as short as possible as quick as possible, That will happen in January now unfortunately
