I seeded 100% Kentucky Bluegrass and got what I deserved

Are you thinking about seeding KENTUCKY BLUEGRASS? Before you do, there are a few things you should know..
Kentucky Bluegrass takes forever to germinate and establish itself. Typically it can take up to 21 days for KBG to germinate and then it goes through a phase called sprout and pout where it will not grow for an extended period of time immediately after germination.
Also it takes longer to wake up in the spring time following winter. It is the end of April here in Chicago and my Kentucky bluegrass is still dormant. I applied 1 dose of granular fertilizer and one dose of liquid fertilizer so far and im starting to see some slight green up happening. For reference, my back yard which is mostly tall fescue has been actively growing and I have mowed it 3 times already.
Ever since sowing 1 pure cultivar of Kentucky bluegrass, I noticed other types of grasses invading my lawn. KBG has a very distinctive look and other grasses will stick out like a sore thumb in a pure KBG lawn. So if your neighbors allow there grass to grow long and start to grow seed heads.. Be prepared for that grass to start invading your lawn.
Kentucky Bluegrass is a very thirsty grass type. A Kentucky Bluegrass lawn needs at least 1 inch of water per week. During the hot summer weather it may need up to 2 inches or more per week. The reason it needs more water is because KBG has a much shallower root system then any of the other cool season grasses.
Another common is with Kentucky Bluegrass is fungus disease. A few common diseases that attack it are leaf spot, powdery mildew, and rust. I have powdery mildew currently and didn’t even know it until I decided to take a closer look. Fungus can be hard to identify, so if you are sowing Kentucky bluegrass make sure you keep an eye on it. Fungus usually has brown, white or damaged spots of grass with clear outlines. Don’t immediately go and start spraying fungicide if you see this… Wait to see if the spot gets bigger over a few days. If it turns out to be fungus, treat the area with a lawn fungicide. Many fungal diseases are made worse by bad watering habits, especially the fungus leaf spot in the the spring and fall when temperatures are between 60 and 80 degrees. Do not irrigate at this time unless you absolutely have to. Water during the day so the water has time to dry from the grass leaves.
The reason Kentucky is the KING of cool season grasses is its ability to spread and repair it self. The fact that it can spread and heal itself when damaged is the reason many professional sports teams seed it in their fields. It spreads underground through the production of rhizomes. Rhizomes are stems that spread horizontally right under the ground. Each rhizome produces a new sprout every couple inches along its stem from which a new Kentucky bluegrass plant forms and sprouts.

[@ChuckThunder]

Tenacity(mesotrione) does not kill Poa Annua. It says on the label that it is not designed to treat it. It, however, could act as a preemergent for it and cause injury to it like you said in the video. (from my experience, I wouldn't bank on it). If you want to kill poa annua, then you will need Poa Costrictor. (ethofumesate)

[@zacharymilos392]

With the advancements in TTTF... I'm starting to question if KBG is really that good for residential lawns now a days, unless you REALLY need to cut low. I know fescue won't ever have the exact same repair ability, but the LS technology is pretty cool and there's several that are becoming very disease resistant and having thinner blades. Read a few data sheets, forget which variety but sounded like it could be mowed to 1.5" - 2". I feel like there's so many lawn youtubers who have slowly all been going to TTTF, at least for their backyards where maybe they don't want to cut very low.

I also have a Midnight mono stand in the front. After 2 full summers, I am thinking of overseeing some TTTF in it because it has just been so much work to keep it looking good. I’ve had fungus several times, usually just rust, and this year when it was waking up I’ve had some pretty heinous sod webworm problems. No one else around me has these problems in their fescue. When it’s not having issues it’s the best looking lawn around but it is a whiney, needy child. 🤷🏼‍♂️

kicking myself cause I'm planning an overseed with KBG this weekend. 1 because it's probably too late will be Sept. 15 when I seed and won't have proper germination before first frost, and 2 I didn't understand how hard it is to use for an overseed project. I have about 1/2 from lawn in KBG and love how drought and heat resistant it is. Just wish I seed weeks ago...

[@dw.imaging]

@3:55 RE: “neighbors grass creeping in”…. I despise the property line in our front yard. Because our neighbors grass doesn’t just creep in… mine is discharged into the yard by the neighbors mowing contractors and those seeds take root eventually. It’s always weeds.

I live probably half-way between you and Jason. I did a very heavy de-thatch and overseeded 17,000 sq. feet of Midnight last fall, killing any tall fescue (Kentucky 31?) with Roundup as I went (there was a lot). This spring, the lawn looks great, but I've got pouty KGB in large obvious sections where all the tall fescue once was -- it's green, and I think it will fill in, but it clearly doesn't match the surrounding lawn. At the start of this month, I core-aerated and did another overseeding with Midnight. The plan is to do at least one more overseeding this fall with the hope of establishing Midnight as the dominant grass, using Roundup in the fall whenever I find any invading grass. If things won't blend together after a few years, I'll start overseeding rye grass and just give up on the project -- or sell the house. It's always good to have a Plan B and Plan C. :) Really enjoying your channel. It's nice to have local content.

[@PrincessCutLawnCare]

Wow thats quite the project! My plan B is the exact same as yours! if it doesnt fill in completely, i will overseed some premium ryegrass this fall. Keep me updated! Thanks for sharing:)

[@EastwoodPaul]

I did a few areas of a Midnight KBG monostand starting fall of 2023. I can confirm pretty much everything you've stated as accurate as of this spring (2024). I have some powdery mildew, and am having some trouble areas with shade which are letting weeds creep due to lack of filling in. Despite all its flaws, it has quite a bit of redeeming qualities, but I think ultimately it needs to be paired with something that is shade tolerant, disease resistant, and perhaps longer roots like a fescue to make it less maintenance. If you have any suggestions for pairing it with a similar look, let me know!

[@paulscott6998]

New varieties of grass seed, especially tttf is sterile. The seed heads won’t germinate. I do like KBG for its lack of thatch. But for drought resistance I’m much more confident with tttf. If you’re up there in Chicago with irrigation, yeah KBG is a great way to go.

[@growingwithgreg9321]

Great video George. I currently have common KBG in my salad bar of a lawn. I plan on over seeding with a mix/blend this fall to introduce better cultivars of KBG. We'll see how it goes. From what I've read/watched/listened to, there is a big difference in KBG cultivars from one to the other almost as big as species of grass. The type I am over seeding with is a blend of compact types (I believe America and "Aggressive"; MVS 365ss) so my common should come up in early spring with my PRG and fine fescue while the compacts will take longer but look great in the Summer vs the common type.

[@PrincessCutLawnCare]

Thanks Greg! Thanks for sharing! Haven’t heard of the aggressive and America, gonna have to look into those. I’ve been hearing about the MVS a lot lately and I know the bears use it in soldier field... sounds like a solid seed! Good luck w your project!

2:54 Weird... my Mazama KBG was the first to wake up on the whole block this spring following a summer renovation.

[@weignerg]

It stayed green all but the last two months of winter. Even then, it never completely went dormant. It just slowed its growing down and got lighter green compared to the dark green in summer. Omaha Nebraska.

[@weignerg]

6:00 rust spread on my summer renovation in the beginning of fall. Scotts Disease EX in double dose with lots of nitrogen and mowing and taking clippings away every 2 days starved off the spread and damage to the grass.

I don't know man this seems really high maintenance.

[@PrincessCutLawnCare]

Much less maintenance if you do a blend of grasses

[@Bonzi_Buddy]

Mine if not high maintenance at all. This year is a bit odd as it was dry early, but luckily my lawn bounced back. I water once a week super heavy and it grows just fine. Mow short in the spring, long in the summer, bump it down a notch in the fall and cut short going into the winter. I have great soil which might be the difference between this lawn. I mixed in quite a bit of compost when I rototilled the entire lawn before putting on a nice topcoat of a good black dirt soil. If I had to do it over again, I'd probably use a sand/compost on the very top to level it as it isn't 100% level. The bumps aren't too bad when long, but I worry about shaving a couple spots in the fall or spring. I used to mow shorter in the summer but the lawn is so much healthier with an extra inch in those hot months (which up where I live isn't long). If I ever move to another climate I'll be at a loss of where to go after getting used to my kbg lawn. It is rock solid and the best in the neighborhood hands down without really much effort.

I just love your background music. Then I enjoy you talking about the grass.😆

Thanks tonya! my friend produced some of the score in this video, its awesome!

I'm taking my lawn in the opposite direction. I'm an exterminator, and I noticed that the lawns with a single species of grass really show the Vole damage, but the yards with a variety of grasses and broad-leaf plants still have voles, but it doesn't stick out. So I bought a couple of pounds of a variety of native ground cover seeds and I'm going to see if I can have a beautiful but unconventional lawn that doesn't take much work. If it looks good, the city can't say diddly. Grass mono-culture takes too much work.

[@ambulocetusnatans]

@@harryharry3193 Sorry bro, I'm a professional exterminator, and voles don't eat grubs. They may eat the occasional cricket or something, but they are mostly herbivorous. Even moles prefer earthworms over grubs.

[@jenniferbmendezful]

It's snowing,...hahaha. Lol.

[@PrincessCutLawnCare]

Lol your bogus 😂

[@426superbee4]

I'll tell ya folks the truth. The 2 best grass is Centipede and St Augustine ~ there both drought, disease and freeze resistance The highest it get is about 10" SO less mowing, less watering, less work and less money to maintain. My neighbors mown 5 x more than me! Trying to get there lawns to look as good as mine

[@PrincessCutLawnCare]

I’m not a warm season guy but thanks for sharing that info! Never knew that about st aug and centipede

[@account2292]

Everything I try is suseptible to disease. If I don't prep in mid may its a comin.
