Your lawn videos help me relax after my stock market research. Also, they have helped me grow my new lawn.

The one thing I didn't do is level it with a rake but I did aerate first, then seed, then stomp over lawn with flat soled sandals (lawn is very small), covered lightly with topsoil and watered. Now it looks pretty good. A few thin spots though. My lawn gets almost no sun it's totally shaded which makes it hard but it's actually doing not bad. Fescue is what I used too

[@Premier_lawns_official]

The fleece.... I bought a big massive roll of it 😂 I have another project to edit that we used it on. It's a good job, but the grass gets to the same point itself, it just speeds it up a bit. The test patch proved that. I think though everyone for every where will be using it as Daniel started it and I have been using it to

We had some snow for about a week but it came out like a champ !

Is this mixture, for top dressing or for new lawns or both? 2. What type of sand would you recommend? (You mention about the type of sand in one of your videos)? 3. Do you recommend sand, because the drainage is better? 4. Do you use a bucket to mix your 70/30 ratio? (N.B. I am working at a clients site, attempting to renovate their lawn).

I live in Melbourne, Australia. I started a new lawn at the beginning of December 2021, which is the beginning of our summer. The grass is growing really well but the weeds are growing just as well too. What recommendations do you have for controlling weeds on a young lawn? I’ve been walking around the lawn every couple of days to pull them out by hand. I’m a bit hesitant to use any weed killing products because the roots are still trying to establish themselves.

During the summer my lawn looks ‘fine’ but during the winter and after rain showers it gets very spongy ( there’s no moss). I’ve aerated and scarified it over the years and recently bought an auger bit and began the process to try and fix the constant drainage problem of my small (30m squared) lawn, it wasn’t long before I was hitting something solid which turned out to be an old paving slab, I then unearthed a further 9. There appears to be a layer of dolomite throughout with a few inches of poor top soil which is of a clayish texture and full of stones. In some areas the dolomite is sitting on top of a layer of polythene covering the clay soil beneath. Additionally after a few hours the holes I’ve dug become waterlogged. Should I just bite the bullet and get all the dolomite removed, get a French drain installed and a few tons of quality top soil or can the dolomite be left and just remove the top soil replacing it with better?

[@Premier_lawns_official]

Can't beat a good drain, assuming you have a good fall and more importantly somewhere for that water to go !

Does it makes sense to water the grass covered with the fleece or do you have take cover off to water and then put fleece back down?

[@Premier_lawns_official]

Leave it on 👍

@@Premier_lawns_official so the water gets through fleece when you water on top then? Thanks for quick response. Excellent channel. New subscriber here all the way from Florida.

I need to hire an aerator for my lawn. Does it need to be a hollow core? or will spikes do

We spiked this one 👍

How many bags of topsoil per Square Meter?

Depends on the lawn and how level it is, I think we used around 10 bags

Fun fact: there is NO AERATING MACHINE available in Austria. I've tried to find one to buy, or rent, or a someone to do it ... nothing. The only think I could come up with is boots with nails in them.

If the lawn isn't that big try one of these methods kzbin.info/www/bejne/jIPJY4NphptrjtE

What was step one? Remove old lawn, but what is that machine you use? What is it doing?

September 👍

Did you spray weed killer all over the lawn before starting the scarification?

[@Premier_lawns_official]

We did indeed

[@PatrickMeskell]

That’s for the honest reply but it’s a shame to know! I want to say up front that I honestly do like your channel, but, Surely the ‘perfect lawn’ is not worth the destruction the poison causes above and below the surface. You should educate your clients and help them understand the benefit ‘weeds’ like daisy’s, butter cups etc and other naturally occurring wild flowers. are to supporting bio-diversity in their area! The harmful affects the poisonous spray has on microbes, worms, beetles in the soil is another storey altogether. You should seriously consider putting away all nasty chemicals and work with nature, not against it. As I said I do like your channel but the weed killers are just the same lazy old ways of landscaping from the prior generations. A lawn with clover, yellow rattle, self healer, daisies etc is far more attractive than bleach green monoculture grass which is 100% useless to flies, bees, birds, insects etc.

[@cliff9136]

@@PatrickMeskell this is a lawn channel primarily. What you’ve described is a paddock. I think you’d be surprised what lives in and under a healthy lawn.

After the frosts have past, in Belfast I don't start seeding until May

if the lawn had weeds in it would you kill the weeds or allow the new seed to smother them out?
