I was hoping you'd start with practice holes and flag sticks

[@southaussiegarbo2054]

For hoodies hit up embroidery masterz in south australia to see if they can do it for you.

[@LawnTips]

there is flags and holes in the equipment part of the website 😉 thanks for becoming a member man! legend!!

Checking the lawn on the security cameras while you're on holiday 😂😂 bruh

[@LawnTips]

Doesn't everybody do that? 🤔🤣

[@evanlegere4154]

What has my life come to. I watch a video once a week ish of a guy cutting the same lawn. But you know what, it’s the lawn of the people

[@rileyward3643]

Would love to see a video about caring for your grass while having dogs, I know it’s a massive problem for a lot of people

[@jimmybui5408]

Lawn is looking great mate. Sorry to hear you’re a Kiwi.

[@LawnTips]

Thanks for your support and understanding through this tough revelation for yourself.

What f... Is a kiwi? I guess he is not a fruit,

Yes to hoodies! Lawn is looking awesome 👏🏻

you should get some signs made up in advanced "sprinklers using bore water" before the summer whiners descend

Cheater stripes! Whuuuuuuit?! 😂👍🏼👍🏼

[@thebeuks1]

My wife thinks there is something wrong with me for watching someone cut their grass, but on a serious note for someone who loves their Honda mower and multitool I can't come at the price for the landscape blade. Keep up the vids. Central coast NSW

That caddie bib is sick :)

[@Rob-od8uu]

such dedication to your craft, you can tell you have a genuine passion for it, good on ya!

[@aaronk8313]

Another great vid, but what's happened to your tag line at the start of each vid? It was one of the best parts 😉

Lawn and wedge skills !!!!!

I have an 850 square foot pure bentgrass putting green in my backyard. It's a ton of work to maintain and expensive but I LOVE it. I used 007 and 777 cultivars when I first seeded three years ago. About a month ago I introduced T1 bentgrass to add density through a slice seeding about 5mm deep. It's tough to create and maintain density over years. I keep it at .125" (3.2mm or so) mowing with a Toro GreensMaster 1000. It will take a few seasons for it to really mature and be awesome. Enjoy it. It's super fun to have.

[@ukaszpucz4215]

that shot at the end was amazing 😁✌👊

That EDM fire @ 6:00 - Killrude - Paint the Wall Great video as always

[@vinnypinatelli221]

Its looking nice great job buddy

[@mickcarter9468]

Great vid mate. Maybe a big reno job on the top half of the green, fill it in to raise it up might help get ride of the low point. A two tier green would look mint!

[@donslawns1]

Nice shot at the end! 🤙🏼

[@wachteraiden]

Lookin Minttt!!

[@13thbeachgardeningservices47]

Rotary/landscape blades are the fire. Give that clean cut.

[@lukeandmelreynolds479]

Good job 👍

[@markymark389]

I'll be taking one of those hoodies when you get em in stock.

[@jamesmassey4390]

I'm confused. You laid tiff-tuff then put bent and rye over it, and then you are going to spray out the bent and rye? Then after that you are going to spray out the tiff-tuff? How does that work? Are you killing off the turf? If you are, how does it come back?

[@BackwoodsLawnCare]

The bentgrass is looking great, curious to see how the plugs will do if you decide to try it! 👌🏼

[@sampayne6737]

Be flying over your joint tomorrow !!

Maybe in 10 years i will have my front like yours🤣🤣

I wake up and get excited to see a new Lawn Tips video. Best lawn care on KZbin. #LAWNGOALS

welcome to the "trim first" cult. I prefer it so much more than trimming after. makes cleanup easier at the end.

Yew! Here is another new lawn tip vid!

Make a bunker... That would be so cool😱😂

will the bent eventually start to take over the rye?

Do the hoodies

[@michaelr6345]

Slow-mo cable pull. Magic. 7.29 lawn mower noise in the background. I can only imagine whats going on in that neighbourhood.

[@TheLawnShark]

So, curiosity question... With bent grass and Rye, does it just get overrun with Bermuda in the Spring and Summer? I assume the Bent and Rye go dormant in the heat. Curious, because I am considering Perennial Rye in place of my Bermuda in the Fall and Winter. Also, that heat blanket is legit! Looking great!

[@Bigbirdlittledog]

Do you think the corner of the neighbours spouting is dripping onto that top sparse part? Love the channel, cheers

[@terryvincent4888]

Hi Ben, not sure if you have covered this before but how do you get into the tight corners with the landscaping blade?

[@thepurdychannel8866]

What tool do you use on your brushcutter to edge your lawn i do it old school with garden shears

[@seansmidwestlawn8991]

Best part of the whole video was the captioning so I could see how you actually spell “squiz” 😂😂🤣

[@Itsnick99]

ayeee you are a kiwi, never knew that

[@mattedwards3505]

Out of curiosity, with all the work you put into your lawn, about how many months of dormancy do you get in your area compared to your neighbors? I get about a solid 3 months here in the Seattle area. Last mow usually around end of November (thanksgiving here), and first mow is usually end of Feb/early March. This is my second year in the house and first year actively trying to manage weeds and adding fertilizer, so curious to see how (if at all) that will impact how late into winter it grows here

[@tomwalker7366]

Y not keep the bent all year round?

[@tonypaine4958]

Hi Ben do you still have your Protea mower haven't seen it used lately. Putting green looking good mate

[@LawnTips]

Tony Paine I do, will be cracking it out again very soon

[@10UPn2DOWN]

Without soil sample to confirm t looks like Pythium Root rot has a hold of your green. Best guide I know for repair (you may already have it) Syngenta disease guide. Hope you got a handle on it.

[@itshomelife]

Shhhhweet!

[@rogerbjj]

What kind of grass is on the fringe and the “tee”?

[@michaelcataldo1651]

Hey mate I have kikuyu and I’m looking at getting either a rover 45 like the one u are using now or a swardman which is a lot more expensive. What one in your opinion is better bang for buck? And how many blades in the reel do u recommended? I love ur Channel by the way, keep up the awesome content Cheers

[@raulgutierrezconstante8119]

You could also ask Ryan Knorr, check his videos.

[@sidekick152]

Universal Rule for Lawncare #1 You must get out to mow when you see your neighbor mowing.

[@austin357]

Sidekick if I did that I’d mow once every 6 months :(

[@raulgutierrezconstante8119]

Saturdays at 4:00 PM ! I can only mow once a week

[@DanishKhan-xm6bb]

Good video!! How high do you cut your bentgrass?

[@LawnTips]

I don’t live here anymore but I had it at 5mm

[@SimonAndAppa]

Quick Tip: pls put an outline or shadow on the txt on screen because it's quite hard to read.

[@austinmorgan2788]

can you edge with your landscaping blade?

[@LawnTips]

Yep. You sure can!

[@zaara7559]

Look cor a consultation about what grass to plant for putting green in nsw I don’t know if it should be warm weather grass or cool. Happy to pay let me know how we can talk.

[@DanielCruz..]

Hey Matt I just overseeded my lawn how much should I wait till I feed it

[@austin357]

I did my first overseed with rye in May, I put down granular starter fert at the same time, once it got two to three leaves, I started to dose it with some liquid fert to make sure all the young plants were getting what they needed, I’ve just put down the second half of my starter fert. I started off with lower N, higher PK, now I’m moving to higher N + iron with the liquid. That’s for Sydney type climate, hope that helps if Ben doesn’t reply.

[@simonlamb5588]

What do ya neighbours think of your lawn? Do they crack the shits that the weird guy is out stroking the grass or mowing the lawn again 😂

[@vegemitemat9314]

Not trying to be rude but what was the objective of overseeding of the green

[@LawnTips]

Vegemite Mat to show people how you can do it (I left it a little late though.) It’s for winter colour as well, the TifTuf goes dormant and brown in winter

[@chrisscahill54]

Looks so good. What other grass could you use apart from bent as this is so expensive in the UK.

[@caveman5831]

If u are up to it, try planting seeds of it and see if u can buy the seeds on line..

[@chrisscahill54]

@@caveman5831 It's the seeds that are expensive. Don't think you can even buy bent grass sod

[@martinlogan8329]

@@chrisscahill54 heya mate, not sure if you're going to see this but I've just ordered 1kg of 007 creeping bentgrass from 'the grass people' for £44. Amazing. They don't advertise it, you need to email them asking for a bespoke mix and then they'll help you out with it. I'm in kent, England, so they'll deliver to you too. Have fun and hope that helps. 👊

[@chrisscahill54]

@@martinlogan8329 That's great thanks. I've been using seed from A1 lawns which is also excellent seed although the bent is very expensive. Thanks again I will definitely have a look 👍

[@martinlogan8329]

@@chrisscahill54 ah happy to help mate. Yeh I was having the same problem as something like the barenburg or johnsons etc was about £200-400 for the min order! Mind me asking if you've switched to bent and how it's going? I'm just about to give it a go because of what I heard on the lawn association KZbin channel but everything I read online tells me not to do it and that it's going to ruin my life?! 😂🤷🏻‍♂️
