You’ve got enough area on that property to look into some permaculture sections and building up a nice little wildlife area. That would be a great contrast to the field of grass at the front!

[@titosrevenger]

Needs more trees! Would help with all the wind as well. If there was a row of trees between their property and that farmer's field it would create a really nice wind break. Might block the view a bit, but honestly trees are pretty nice to look at anyway.

[@ericcastle5704]

Agreed. I’m a big fan of lawns but I’m also a big fan of natural flora and ecosystems. He has such a huge canvas to work with and it would be great to see him bring in a bit of biodiversity.

[@ryanknorrlawncare]

@@ericcastle5704 this is 1 acre of 40. The back area is full of woods and many different environments.

[@YardBrah]

HELLO!!!! Oh man Ryan I can't wait for you to start reel mowing again brotha! 😊🤙🏾

[@jasonkelley6185]

I love that when you look at barren spots that just have a few tufts of grass, you don’t disparage it. I might think, “this sucks, how will I ever make this look good.” You seem to approach it with the attitude that every piece of grass is the start to something beautiful. Your patience is inspiring! Also, it’s really fun to see your wife working with you on your passion and really getting into it. What a life! Keep it going my man!

[@ryanknorrlawncare]

All good things happen with time and hard work. I used to get really frustrated about things that didn't happen perfectly right away but with experience you just stick to your plan and keep working.

[@GAMNSA6]

Good to know that I’m not the only one that stands in their yard watching the sprinklers for way too long.

[@scottmarunowski6415]

Great job on the plots and the paths look great. You and Kelsey are amazing on transforming this field into a beautiful looking yard. Look forward to the next video!

[@jfarm_1311]

First mow incoming. Awesome! Love you guys working together, it’s nice to see couples helping each other as much as you

[@JFTB-i8y]

His grass seed choices that he sells are very good. If you have an old lawn with bare spots you may wanna consider doing a full reno and use his seed because his grass was sooooo much greener than my old grass year 1 those sections stood out majorly compared to the surrounding grass

[@michigan0207]

Thinking of a full lawn reno with Barenbrug RPR. How would it compare to his?

[@JFTB-i8y]

@@michigan0207 not sure about that brand. I have only used general store bought like scotts in the past and the ryan knorr stuff is significantly better and does a lot better for me in the summer as well.

[@A-Kings-Cut]

One of the greatest grass content an knowledge is on this page

[@Teslavangelist]

Sprinkler head tip: plant a crocus bulb next to each head. They bloom in March and will show where every head is after winter cover

[@lucianomj79]

I enjoy watching the sprinklers, also.

[@kswas2784]

Great update! We know you're a turf guy but with your great property and having so much open space have you considered using say 1/2 or a full acre as a wildflower meadow? It would really be beautiful out there.

[@IowaLawnGuy]

The other day was AMAZING that there was no wind! Great day to do some work outside! Looks like we’ve got some rain in the forecast this weekend😎

[@Overpar73]

Wow Ryan, that is looking amazing already, it should really fill in next week with the nice weather we have coming! I've been working hard getting my building lot ready for Paul and the guys to get started on my shop/man cave! I can hardly wait to begin, take care and don't work too hard!

[@WeatherNut27]

Great video! I love watching sprinklers too! I'm mowing your Grand Slam Rye at 1.5", doing awesome so far. Only 8 months old.

[@kove]

Thay ending jam 👌

[@karens1795]

I just love your property in the country, and the things you are doing to it.

[@dabsteelpimp]

Hey Ryan, that's quite the undertaking... congrats on the move and new grounds! I've learned so much from your channel! Keep the vids coming!

[@captainjayc9217]

I left the straw blanket for the entire season because I thought that was supposed to be. And I regretted doing this. Thanks for setting me straight.

[@markeckman3662]

I'd like your opinion on pre-germinating seed. Seems like a great way to avoid washouts and get the grass growing faster, but I think it might have some downsides like not promoting root development, just green shoots.

[@shadylawndude5507]

Really excited for you!! Can't wait to see how it all turns out!! I love watching sprinklers too especially the sound is soothing

[@osoquik4447]

Lawn and house coming along Ryan! Completed new seed areas this year and they mirror your results (patchy). Plan on filling where I can this weekend. Green time baby!

[@terrywatts1060]

It's definitely looking good

[@ThatCleanDadlife]

Loving all the progress Ryan

[@crossbow3539]

You’ve been to a sod farm. How do they do it?they don’t use straw. Those sod farms have always amazed me. The way they grow square archers of perfect weed free grass year after year.

[@1960Murf]

If you have allergies I highly recommend rinsing out your sinuses on a daily basis. It literally changed my life.

[@wayneessar7489]

How do you find out your sinuses?

[@1990RHall]

You're new property has me so excited to build ours in the next 3-4 years. We have the acreage, but just waiting for a more permanent internet solution since I work from home :( . The well being used for irrigation is a genius idea and I'll definitely be stealing the idea!

[@KellyH24]

Looking great!

[@Chandelier212]

Hi, Ryan and all members. How can I get rid of Poa Annue on my cool-season grass (specifically Ryegrass)? I am located in Connecticut. What product to use? Strategy for spring and fall? Thank you

[@callmeGrover]

I've been meaning to try some mulch glue. Maybe you can try it between your test plots to hold the chips in place

[@DMUSA536]

Rain here Rochester NY for the past 4 days. Gotta cut the grass as soon as it dries.

[@BullittBourbonJunky]

What would you suggest for a newly planted lawn on june 17th. I was thinkinh about moving this weekend if its dry enough. Possibly laying some fertilizer out

[@matthewcoulter2149]

Looking forward to the first mow on the main stage.

[@mattskillman]

My landscaper used the straw netting on our yard last year, and I wasn't sure if we had to remove the netting at some point. He said not to and that the plastic netting would "biodegrade". Well, now almost a year later we have a mess of plastic netting sticking up out of the ground. There's areas where the straw just packed down and didn't let any grass grow. So now I've been out raking as much of the straw up as possible to get to bare dirt in hopes of filling in the bare spots. We still have the plastic netting mess and hopefully over time it will get cut up with the mower (another cleanup problem). Was my landscaper wrong in advising us not to bother removing the straw netting?

[@jimmaul]

Is it straw or plastic? You've said both here so it isn't clear. Straw should eventually decompose but plastic will be around forever.

[@mattskillman]

@@jimmaul the netting is plastic and had the straw woven through it. The plastic is now pretty brittle, but its a mess where it is still sticking out of the ground.

[@WichhartAcres]

I just picked up a couple of those straw matts from menards. I am fighting some washout. Do I re-level it risking hurting the grass that is already growing? Or do I let the grass grow and then fill in the spots later where the washout occured?

[@ryanknorrlawncare]

I found that you can sometimes lightly rake through new grass and it may be stronger than you think. I did some raking this week through some stuff that's not very old and it was fine.

[@kove]

Its sooo satisfying push reel mowing. May bust mone out for funsies.

[@wayneessar7489]

Bust out that mone!

[@cmedeirosjr585]

What are your thoughts on Slice Seeders?

[@ryanknorrlawncare]

Totally fine if you have access to one.

[@devin9880]

More VIDS pls longer too

[@Rinacgolf]

Hey Ryan huge fan of your channel . Just have a question for you. I moved into my new house this past winter and now moving into spring I’ve noticed in the backyard after having rain for like 5 days straight and then no rain for like 3 the grass is still soaked . Is this due to compaction and should I aerate and put some humic acid down ? I can’t even cut the grass how wet it is.

[@ryanknorrlawncare]

Probably heavy soils that don't drain well and possibly compaction. You might need more time to see how it reacts long term but humic won't be any magic formula for that. You can certainly aerate and see what kind of cores you can pull to get a better look at it.

[@Rinacgolf]

@@ryanknorrlawncare thanks for the advice .

[@thomasstark3681]

Ryan, it’s May 10th and I missed out on my pre emergent. Now I have grass growing and weeds and lots of clover. I’d like to put a spray weed killer down. Can I put down milorganite down with that or should I wait. Or should I do the milorganite 1st and wait to spray. Watched a couple older videos and really didn’t see a definite answer to that. Thanks. BTW, I’m in the Midwest if that matters.

[@Bouchhhy]

This Elite Fescue is popping off like crazy! I do have a question though. Since my seedlings are about 3-4weeks old and about 3" tall. Is it a bad idea to put down some GreenOrr or some MaxORR this early? Is the nitrogen going to burn the little guys. When I planted I just used a quick release 10-10-10.

[@ryanknorrlawncare]

I usually wait for a few mows in to make sure they're hardy and ready for more fert. A low low dose might be ok but then I would prefer to spray that rather than spread. That's just me though!

[@Bouchhhy]

I think I’m going to run over to the store and buy a battery pack sprayer. Using liquid I agree is going to react better because its applying straight to the grass itself. What product of yours is considered a light dose

[@ryanknorrlawncare]

@@Bouchhhy my fav for that would be EqualizORR. We are a few days out on shipping this current batch though right now so not sure how soon you need it. ryanknorrlawncare.com/product/equalizorr/ Another good option would be VigORR - ryanknorrlawncare.com/product/vigorr/

[@jordanhawkins7309]

I bought a place like yours a couple years ago. Not as big of a property, but still more than i can grass in a season. Ive been taking it in smaller sections as well. Ive been using my quad and drag to break things up, and then seeding and covering with peat moss which has been expensive. I really want to try those seed/erosion blankets. Is that your preferred method? I still have about 3/4 of an acre i need to plant, will be working on killing off the weeds this summer.

[@ryanknorrlawncare]

Blankets are better in my opinion

[@garywilliams7819]

Nice work. Is there a difference in the seed reaction/growth promotion when using well water verses city water?

[@ryanknorrlawncare]

I have been using the well pretty much exclusively except for one small area and I don't see any major differences. In theory I'd prefer to just pull water from the ground with the well and not use something that has been treated specifically for drinking etc

[@JEK]

Ryan, what sprinklers are you running on the small plots?

[@BRISTOLFORCE2009]

They look to be rain bird fixed sprays

[@crossbow3539]

If I had that much land and was gonna live there I’d be planting a bunch of trees need some shade on that building too

[@hatpeach1]

Excellent quality video. You've become the Casey Neistat of lawncare.

[@Teslavangelist]

If you wear a dust or N95 mask around the straw, you might avoid some allergic response

[@ryanknorrlawncare]

Yeah that would be a good plan 🤣

[@tvercel]

Hey Ryan. Great content. I have used the same rye grass you have been using and have noticed it takes about 18 months before it really reaches the full density. I was surprised this spring how many new areas of growth I had gotten from the rye and now looks great. Keep up the good work!
