I also highly recommend if using 0-0-2, to thoroughly rinse out the measuring cup before and after, to avoid precipitation (chunkage) in the measuring cup.

[@benharrison1069]

If your lawn is progressing, Paul, it might be interesting to show maybe a time lapse sequence of pictures for the progression. Also, to compare your yard to your gas station friend's yard, maybe some pictures of your yard and her yard to show the difference of a treated yard versus an untreated yard.

[@NExtDIYLawn]

1.) It is the Chapin 12 Gallon 24v battery powered sprayer. You can find it here... amzn.to/2Y6tQW7 2.) It holds 12 gallons at a time. For sure a work out! 3.) I was lucky and found a local retailer that sold me an open box one for about $350. Overall, pretty happy with the sprayer! I will do a video on it soon. Stay tuned! Thank you very much! I will do my very best! You as well. - Castleberry

I applied the max treatment for each product 3 weeks ago. Now have to mow 2x/week because the grass is jumping out of the ground. Still haven't applied the Lesco 30-0-10 yet. At that point, I might have to mow 3x/week! LOL. Lancaster, Pa. TTTF lawn.

Fyi - I've found the 002 microgreen alone (w/o other Next products) in the red ortho hose-in sprayer, or even diluted with water, clogs periodically regardless when I apply it. No matter how long I shake it. Maybe I will try the water first method you mentioned next time.

[@NExtDIYLawn]

Interesting! Try the water method like you mentioned. Shake the bottle like crazy, add water to the cup, put in the concentrate, then spray it out. If it sprays out brown, then stops at some point and goes clear, do the quick trigger pulls until whatever might have caused a problem clears out and sprays out brown again. - Castleberry

For backpack sprayers, is there a preference between piston or diaphragm pumps when putting down a bio stim mix?

[@NExtDIYLawn]

The PSI is weaker with diaphragm sprayers. With bio-stims, you want to make sure everything flows. Diaphragm will work but it make clog easier because the product isn't moving through

[@terryford6738]

Used BioStim pack last season with excellent results!! Yard is currently under 8" of snow. Looking forward to spring. Is there a minimum soil temperature the yard should reach before applying? 55 degrees?

[@NExtDIYLawn]

Thanks for watching and leaving a comment/question. About the same time you start to apply your Pre-Emergent is a good time to start running the bio-stim products. That being said, Humic12 is a product you can run all year long, so long as your ground is not frozen or buried by snow! Which yours is...hang in there! Hope that helps. Please let us know if you have any more questions. Happy to help.

What would be my application rate for applying these in a 2 gallon sprayer for a 4100 sq ft lawn?

[@NExtDIYLawn]

You'll need to spray twice to cover the 4,000 square feet. Each gallon cover 1,000 square feet. RGS apply at 3oz per gallon, and the rest can be at 6-9oz per gallon.

[@dougcalv]

Newbie here. Just ordered Bio Stimulant Pack. Live in central Florida under black rules. Just bought this house with a couple-month-old St Augustine sod. Am I doing the right thing by applying these products now to get the LCN program going?

Absolutely should start now. Simply just do 3 ounces per 1,000 square feet once a month. - Castleberry

[@kbbvwelsh9334]

Can I spray this in the fall winter months or would that be a waste.

[@NExtDIYLawn]

Depending on soil temperatures where you're located, it would be wasteful. If you're in the south US, go for it, but up north, there is little activity in the soil.

[@RealClevelandBrown]

Hi Paul, I just received my Bio Stimulant package. I'm waiting on the temps to warm up in the Maryland/DC area. My question is? Should I put this down first or should I put down my pre-emergent one week and then the Bio Stimulant the next week? Thanks for these videos, btw.

[@donaldjwright57]

Really thinking about buying the type of sprayer you have...just wondering why your using bungie cords with the boom straight forward? Joe

[@ColonelK0rn1]

He's modified it to use a TeeJet spray nozzle, which has a flat-fan nozzle spray, and it's probably due to the orientation of the spray pattern out of the tip. The tip that comes on the sprayer stock has a pattern that runs parallel to the axles, so that's why it's designed to be sprayed either on the left, or the right of the tank. If you had it out front, you'd just be spraying the tank, and not very much in front of you. Word of caution on that particular sprayer, there's a lot of QC problems that Chapin supports with great customer service, but I've had my unit fail on me 3x with a full tank of liquid to spray.

[@NExtDIYLawn]

I have enjoyed it so far! The boom arm, when it is pointed directly out front, has the tendency to bounce around. A pro customer of ours has the same sprayer and he told me about the bungie cord idea. Keeps it nice and ridged. I will most likely do a video on it here soon. Stay tuned!

I have construction damage on crappy clay soil. I did a soil test and its basically low on everything (supporsingly the PH isnt bad). Can I spray Humic12 and RGS on the soil before/after tilling and seeding? If not, what ould be the optimal way to do it?

I’m starting late with N-Ext but I’m in the game now. Is it ok to apply all 4 products in one day( Dthactch, air8, RGS,and Humic12) two at a time. Then start applying on a weekly schedule one product a week rotating them so it comes out to one every 4 weeks.

[@NExtDIYLawn]

You can absolutely spray all of those down at the same time. Best to do low doses of each once a month. Do 3 ounces of RGS, Air8, and Humic12 per 1,000 square feet every 4 weeks, and do about 6 ounces of D-Thatch per 1,000 square feet every 3 to 4 weeks. That way you can help the turf train itself to cycle through the nutrients better. Great question. Thanks for watching and commenting. Keep on keeping on. - Castleberry

I see what the law care nut says ( paint your yard black)

[@NExtDIYLawn]

Putting those 3 together in a tank with water first, you won't have a problem at all!

Was out putting down RGS and Microgreen today and had not one but TWO neighbors compliment how nice my lawn was looking! N-Ext for domination baby :) And WHERE can I get that unicorn sprayer?... my Chapin backpack sprayer is killin my shoulders !

[@NExtDIYLawn]

That's awesome to hear! I get that weekly and the lawn isn't even fully awake yet! You can snag it on Amazon. Pretty happy with it. amzn.to/2Y6tQW7 Keep on keeping on! - Castleberry

[@dskrpncs]

What are you doing for your nitrogen source?

[@francescodias5333]

What would the lawn look like using too much of each? I mean, if someone use once a week the max rate, for example.

[@NExtDIYLawn]

Great question. Surge of growth and when you mow, you might be bailing hay. Better to spread it out and spoon feed it so the turf can cycle through the nutrients you are giving it. - Castleberry

[@charlesoverly3472]

For cool season grass (TTTF), should I skip the monthly applications for July and August?

[@josh.kaptur]

The biostim pack is not pushing growth, so I think you're okay (at least, it's what I do). Definitely back off on the nitrogen though.

[@trentonburd9110]

What is the difference between microgreene and greeneffect? If I did a build-your-own 4-pack, could I swap out the MG for GE? Or maybe not because of the nitrogen in GE?

[@NExtDIYLawn]

Great question. 7-0-0 GreeNe EfFect does not have any of the minors or humic acid to help with soil amendment. It's just high concentration of iron and small concentration of Nitrogen to help give a boost of color, as well as hold onto that color for a longer period of time. Where as 0-0-2 MicroGreene has the humic acid and minors in it to help feed and amend the soil. Hope that helps. - Castleberry

N-Ext DIY Lawn does micro Greene green up the lawn?

[@arttully7982]

paul-is it ok to apply humic the same day or a few days after seeding and fertilizing?

[@Egleone6]

I am going to be applying the RGS and Air8 one app, Then Humic and Micro 10-14 days after and repeat every 4-5 weeks.. This way, you get more of a Humic spread instead of all in one does

[@NExtDIYLawn]

Great question! Thanks for asking. Absolutely ok to apply same day or few days after if you would like.

[@xxBLKSNXxx]

Humic is a proven waste of money

[@timd5597]

When spray trees with humic and rgs how nany oz per trunk caliber?

[@NExtDIYLawn]

Do not spray Humic or RGS on the trunks of trees. Only 4-0-2 FloraGreene and 0-0-2 MicroGreene should be sprayed on trees. Humic and RGS should be applied at the base. - Castleberry

[@christianarcilla8125]

Will these stain my concrete if over-spraying occurs?

[@NExtDIYLawn]

Yes. A good trick is to spray water on concrete surfaces prior to applying fertilizer. Most things with iron will stain.

[@ronedward3660]

So I take it that I can mix Air 8 and Humic 12 together with no issue?

[@NExtDIYLawn]

Great question! Thanks for asking and watching. Yes, Air8 and Humic12 can be mixed together with no issues.

[@primetime1143]

Can these products help with lawn rust?

[@troyd.521]

Is there a max temp they shouldn’t be applied?

[@DRK_BBQ]

How's the back yard doing with the compaction cure?

[@NExtDIYLawn]

I will have an update soon! Just did my 2nd round. Thanks for watching. - Castleberry

[@pamluster73]

omg i don't know where to began i bought the bio package. how much water do i add? for one im in florida and i wake up to 85 degr weather. my total yard is 5300sqft i only want to test it on the front yard then later the back. is it to hot to apply this now PLEASE HELP LOL

[@NExtDIYLawn]

When you ask "how much water do I add" do you mean in the Ortho or backpack sprayer? If you use the Ortho Dial n Spray, after putting in the product, fill it the rest of the way with water. If you're using a backpack sprayer, everything is per gallon. So 6 oz per gallon, 9 oz per gallon. You will still want to water afterwords.

[@nbobinger]

details on the sprayer you are using in this video please

[@pargoff]

I'm in SE MI. Does my growing season include June and July? I have mostly KBG.

[@NExtDIYLawn]

Takes more water but yes!

[@mavcpr]

will you be adding any other fertilizers-----like 18-0-1

[@NExtDIYLawn]

Already have. Did a video on 18-0-1 and have applied two apps so far. - Castleberry
