The landzie peatmoss spreader is well worth the money. I have a homemade one and the one from landzie. I picked up a sunjoe dethatcher, landzie peatmoss spreader and a pull behind dethatcher for a riding lawnmower all for 125.00 last year on offerup. I sold the dethatcher for 50.00 the same week. If you are overseeding each year it's worth the price.

[@YardBrah]

oh lucky I wish I could find a used peatmoss spreader the landize is pricey!!! lol haha i'll end up getting one eventually! 😂😊🙏🏾🤙🏾

Great video. I'd like to see how the Big Blue salt/sand spreader handles peat moss vs the roller.

[@YardBrah]

I noticed anything fluffy doesn’t really work the peat moss spreader is the best hands down! 😊🙏🏾🤙🏾🔥

[@bryanhiebert1]

If you have a leaf blower with a mulcher attachment, you can use that to spread the peatmoss. Just take the bag off and put the mulching end in the peat moss and it will spray it all over the yard.

[@YardBrah]

Oh smart! I don’t have an attachment I’ll have to look into it! 😊🙌🏾🤙🏾🙏🏾

[@Antonio-mm6vi]

Ran straight to your videos as I’ve been watching you for about a month now. Love your content. Question though! I have an erosion slot in my back yard. Would a sand/top soil mix work to fix it? It’s a decent size area. But wasn’t sure if it would just wash away.

[@lordbaelish19]

Which aerator do you think is more effective? This new one or the Amick? Does the Amick give you lawn sausages? And it’s good for the grass to leave those on top for a few days to decompose into nutrients for the lawn I thought.

[@YardBrah]

I mean the new one is more effective as in it creates lawn sausages even with super moist soil... but with the right conditions Amick creates cores too... the difference is speed and price that's all it comes down to speed and price. Amick is just a faster tool but more expensive. Yes it's good to leave the lawn sausages I just wanted to have a clean slate for the sand level 😊🙏🏾🤙🏾

[@muna866]

So cut low, aerate and spread sand to level. I'm new to this and have an extremely bumpy and moist lawn on a hill. To the point the soil is exposed in the bumps 😳 and can I just use the quickrete all purpose sand from home depot by itself since I can't find the mason sand?

[@teddyacpal3212]

Howzit! Found your channel recently. Great content. My lawn is a couple inches higher than my sidewalk. any suggestions to lowering the lawn level? Mahalo🤙🏽

[@YardBrah]

Howzit brah🤙🏾 Yo you might need to sod cut and re plant if you want to lower … I mean you could use core aerate and use a lawn roller but that won’t take it down inches… that’s a tough one my dude! Thanks for watching bruddah Mahalo 😊👊🏾🤙🏾🤙🏾🤙🏾

[@callmefrog76]

Sun clouds rain hail… all within an hour, tell me you live in WA state without telling me 😂😂😂😂… if I didn’t have 10k sq ft I’d love to level but NaBruh

[@YardBrah]

For real! yesterday I was working on a project and took my time cause I knew I wasn't going to be able to cut with the off and on rain... finally at 10pm it settled so I did a quick trim 😂🙌🏾🤙🏾

[@IsaacMomperousse]

Wonder if you could put the sand in your spreader

[@DarrenJamesNI]

Interesting to see your using mason sand as opposed to silica. Have you ever tried the latter as here in Ireland it’s what most green keepers would use.

[@billkeough-lz3gr]

Yardbra, live in Kennewick, wa what do I use for poa in my backyard 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️, except for that looking good 😂🤙

[@YardBrah]

Velocity just came out but it’s $700 for 16oz 😅 takes care of poa Annua and poa trivialis… I’m very tempted to pull the trigger 😂😂😂🤙🏾

[@soo_lit_life1340]

What months is the best time to level the lawn? Thank you. Your videos are awesome!

[@YardBrah]

Best time is spring and fall for cool season but in the PNW we can really do it whenever 😂😊🙏🏾🤙🏾👊🏾

[@brandonyoung7760]

That's a cute yard. Try doing this on a 2 acre yard though 😄

[@YardBrah]

😂😂😂😂 thank you I like my little weird edged postage stamp 😂 Oh man I just overseeded the 1032sqft rectangle “the back back” and that made me tired … I could even imagine 2 acres!!!!! At that point you need big boy toys to be doing the process 😂😊🤙🏾🔥🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

[@brandonyoung7760]

@YardBrah yeah it's very expensive. I try to spray weed killer every season but that's about it. I basically have a "field grass" yard lol

[@Bferr89]

what is the track at 15:15 i swear i have heard this at the festivals. Nice to see a fellow WA boy who loves their lawn

[@greenM1221]

Great video Brah!!! Hey question? Did your buddy sharpen your reel mower. I tired mine on a little 10’ piece of the lawn and it didn’t cut it it freakn pulled the damn grass😂. I think I might need to get it either sharpened or just rebuild it. Anyway..can’t wait to see your results keep one keeping on.

[@YardBrah]

Thank you! No he didn’t it’s very full I gotta get a kit or maybe just another blade? That’s horrible I would have died laughing if the grass was pulled 😂😂😂🙏🏾🤙🏾

[@DaEternalNoob]

@@YardBrah there's a shop in South Tacoma called King Palmer Sales & Service that can probably fix your reel up. Agrishop on Sprague might be able as well. They used to sell Cal Trimmers.

Can u put sharp sand in lawn

[@paulwakefield1015]

so what happens if a guy....does the same thing you did but WITHOUT the peat moss covering? i know you mentioned a bird problem. are there any other concerns if you don't use peat moss/potters mix?

[@YardBrah]

As long as you rake the seed in you’ll be fine… this season I didn’t cover the seed and it came out perfect 🤙🏾

Where did you inquire about the peat moss spreader for rent?

Home Depot and lowes! I’ll get one before fall overseed for sure! 😊🙌🏾🤙🏾🙏🏾

[@plsrng7204]

daaaaaaamn! If this ain't proof of inflation. I paid $8 for my sand bags. In this video they're $5
