Spreading Grass Seed With Stihl BG86 Leaf Blower QUICK and EASY

Load your bucket and feed the leaf blower inlet by hand. Control the seed travel distance by blower throttle and tube direction. Have some actual fun doing yard work!

Best idea and video I've seen all month!!!! Genius and hilarious!

[@Knight.Mechanical]

You should give it a try! It definitely makes overseeding the yard more enjoyable.

Thanks for being the alpha dad we all needed rn

[@metaspencer]

YOutube showed me this video for some reason, and I am forever changed.

[@Knight.Mechanical]

That is awesome, show your friends the leaf blower seed thrower.

[@blessedreptiles]

Drop us an update on the success rate, this is genius!

[@mikedoingmikethings702]

Make a hopper with a 50 lb bag!!! LOL that's freakin' genius man!!!

[@sauceracing]

I gotta go pick up all my seed now, just so i can do this

[@komitadjie]

You know, this makes me think of just 3d printing some kind of hopper-thing that I could put in-line in front of the blower itself, behind the nozzle... Hmm!

[@bobmiller2921]

Let me know when you get the STL file ready to go

[@WikkyPlays]

Im about to make one of these for my kombi system blower but im gonna uses a small Rubbermaid as a hopper with cardboard and duct taped probably will make a video of it and upload it to the channel im commenting with guess we’ll see if it works 🤷‍♂️

Saved so I can remember this!

[@robrob7011]

Excellent, my friend

[@jeffarp7409]

Yep this looks just like something that I would do. Lol

[@rickyparrish8310]

Pretty interesting 😮

[@Watergirl_83]

Would this work granular herbicides, insecticides, etc?

[@UpperEndLandscape]

I would not do that! that is a great way to ingest all that herbicides. its sucking through the fan that will make extreme dust and you will regret it in the future.

[@Watergirl_83]

@@UpperEndLandscape You're right. I hadn't thought about that!

[@bodyshopmgr1]

Too bad it’s killing the seeds..

[@Knight.Mechanical]

It may be killing some seeds, who knows? All I know is I built a new house 3 years ago and used this method to spread the grass seed over the freshly tilled yard around the house, and now I have nice thick grass to mow. So, killing seeds or not, it produced grass, which is what I was meaning to do with it.

We use the vacuum function to harvest wildflower meadows and even with the blades in, seed damage is almost nonexistent. Guess removing the blades would increase seed survival
