Super Juice Fertilizer - How to Use and FAQ

[@charliechan3071]

This stuff really works!! It took one application with two cups of the lawn fertilizer; my grass is lush and green. I received plenty of compliments from neighbors on how beautiful my yard looks. Thank you!

[@fredeitel6855]

After applying Super Juice, how long until I can cut the grass (I mulch the clippings)? This is my first year following Doc's advice/recommendations and the results are fantastic!

[@seralaltidor370]

Fred Eitel I would cut then add super juice. To answer your question, cut as early as a day later. You want to give the grass time to take up the nutrient. Since you mulch, the nutrient is staying in the yard. Hope this help

[@TellersandTales]

Wow priceless information. I hope they make enough super juice. Maybe you should do a pre-sale to see how much you need right now!!!

[@ericsalazar1451]

Hey Doc, thanks for your videos! Should I put the “Super Juice” if I’m expecting heavy rain in the next 10 days?

[@zipityduda1780]

Thanks Doc, love your videos and have been looking on amazon everyday. Can’t wait to try this out

[@alancorey3539]

Have following you for some time just bought the magic juice will try in Sc soon..

[@elsiekimmel3207]

I've just ordered 2 bags and plan to add weed and feed along with the dry humic dg. Wait a few days and do the liquid juice. It's still cool here and soil not thawed in places.

[@Copenator333]

I have a bad weed problem in my yard. Should I deal with the weeds completely before putting down the super juice? I have nutsedge I have sprayed and I put down the spray pre-emergent (both 1 week ago). I still need to kill crabgrass that is pretty thick. I have a spray for that too. Just trying to figure out what the timing or order I should use for it. I have Bermuda grass in an extremely warm climate (many 100 degree days).

[@QCIGARSMOKER]

I really enjoyed the video and I thank you. One question please. I have the 0.48% Barricade DG PRo that I was on one of your other videos; should I spread that first or after the Juice Mixture. Thank you again.

[@GLB365]

Doc, There is a measuring tool on google maps that will allow you to draw it out and give you the sq footage

[@HowTowithDoc]

Yes, we'll be showing that plus a few other methods.

[@natearch80]

You can also use the Scotts app

[@mickyunit]

I couldn't find my tape measure, so I went to my county tax record and subtracted the house and driveway measurements. Close enough for me. 4336, but I rounded up to 4500.

[@matthewhiebing3507]

Doc, where can I buy the hose end sprayer? Can't use the super juice without it:)

[@myreplysucks7984]

Hey Doc any advise on what to use on Asian jasmine for weeds ? Have put down deminsion. But what can I use for existing weeds?

[@nickdalicandro8729]

hi, my name is Nick and are from Canada, was wondering if there is anyway to get these products here in canada

[@deathdragon745]

Hi Doc. I cant find the big plastic container with the screen. Can you please tell me where you purchased it. Thank you very much Liz

[@hishamqureshi]

I purchased this but not sure if I can apply this on a newly seeded grass or wait for the grass seeds to germinate first.Any suggestions? Thanks

[@saulliera6609]

When will this product be back in stock? I have been looking and no luck

[@garyredden1900]

Awesome Doc, thank you for posting this.

[@Ezq95]

I have 1120 sqf of Pensacola bahia grass 14 days ago. can I use the super juice and any recommendations for fertilizer ?

[@Ezq95]

so I ordered it to day from Amazon . I got a chase credit card and I was given a give card 0f $115. so I bought the bag for $82. and I have $23.33 left on my give card. I paid $0 I will be getting on May 9th. looking forward to seen it work on my Bahia grass. in Florida Bahia grass is pretty if you maintenance is done and mowed right. No need to water as much.

[@bigj4052]

How is it working on your Bahia? That’s what I have here in Florida and really want to kick it up this year?

[@IndranilBhattacharyaDhanbad]

Hi Doc - Can super juice burn my lawn? I have True Green doing their regular stuff every 8 weeks, and I want to put down your recommended PGF Complete & Super Juice in those 8 weeks

[@hernandezfam559]

Hello! Is this pet friendly? Is it too late in the spring to apply this?

[@terrysmith7454]

CAN YOU PUT IT ON ST AUGUSTINE LAWN ALSO

[@garyredden1900]

Doc, what are your thoughts of adding a surfactant a few days before applying Super Juice?

[@HowTowithDoc]

Nope..... not needed. Just use the juice.

[@raulgutierrez5862]

Use Google Earth to measure square footage. Just zoom-in on the home address and use the ruler to set the measuring points.

[@HowTowithDoc]

Most QPUBLIC / county tax website have a MAP VIEW and there is often measure tool there as well.

[@shawnengstrom3906]

An app called Geo Measure works fantastic. It's what so many contractors use also.

[@wesleyladda3498]

Is it good for fescue?

[@ray729fl]

Will this work on St Augustine lawns?

[@stevehudgins4277]

doc where can i order the nozels for the jugs noone is carring or know where to buy them i have plenty of bottles just need the sprayer nozels to fitem

[@atljc1]

Will this work on Zoysia grass? I’m having to convert my back yard to zoysia due to limited sun and want it to look just as good as the Bermuda.

[@HowTowithDoc]

Yes.... www.zoysiagrass-seed.com/fertilizing-zoysia.html Look for the ratios .

[@TIFFINJJ]

Where can you buy it? I thought Amazon

[@strongcat27]

Doc I have a question!.... Super juice has expiration day like some organic fertilizers??....

[@HowTowithDoc]

No, it just has a tendency to harden up a bit. I'm using a two year old bag right now. Little hard but fine.

[@floridavet8675]

Can you store premixed super juoce

[@scottric1979]

I'm guessing since the product contains 'Humic', a separate application of humic isn't necessary?

[@HowTowithDoc]

It contains a very small amount of humic so one granular treatment a year once the weather warms a bit should be done if soil is poor.

[@alpringle5000]

i just applied Scotts Southern Fertilizer to my bermuda lawn and after finding super juice. How long should I wait before I apply super juice?

[@seralaltidor370]

Al KP you can add super juice the same day. Doc said super juice is a supplement to what ever fertilizer you’re using

[@jeffhopkins9678]

Doc, would you say that Super Juice replaces your recommendation from last year of Urban Farms Liquid Lawn? Asking because I'm trying to rehab a shady area.

[@HowTowithDoc]

Super Juice was developed so you don't have to buy all those ingredients and mix them. It's now all in one.

[@Rawhide279]

Doc...I didn't see name of the manufacturer of the natural fert that you recommended last year listed on the Super Juice bags, is this product made using their formula since this is also 7-1-2? Regardless, is 'Doc's Super Juice' also made with (100%) organic and plant based fertilizers? Just trying to get my products planned for the season and don't want to "double dip."

[@HowTowithDoc]

There is an organic granular which is SOY based and then there is Super Juice which is a liquid fertilizer. www.howtowithdoc.com/docs-product-links/best-lawn-fertilizers/

[@kofawp]

Hey doc, should I apply it when the next 4-5 days are predicted to rain? Thanks.

[@paulabbott3816]

Does Super Juice and C3G Complete work for zoysia grass

[@philfsimon]

And Centipede? Even warm grasses are different when starting any program for warm season grass.

[@jo2575]

Doc can the super juice be used on fruit trees? I have a few citrus tree in my yard. How does it work in St. Augustine?

[@HowTowithDoc]

Fruit and Vegies generally require a 10-10-10 to a 1-3-2 type fert. If a plant mainly has leaf and flowers then it is fine, but once you hit FRUIT of any kind you need to adjust npk. Good on st aug

[@viraj-sheth]

How do I kill Poa Annua on my lawn.

[@aflutur23]

My lawn right under 1500 sq ft So one cup treats 1500 sq ft how much water do you add to that one cup of SUPPER juice??

[@HowTowithDoc]

Mix it with enough water to fill 1-2 bottles and spray away. The amount of water used is not very critical.

[@darryltinney5142]

19:40 for how to mix it

[@betoxyz68]

Good for St. Augustine? I live in Houston Tx

[@HowTowithDoc]

Yes, all grasses as a supplement. publications.tamu.edu/TURF_LANDSCAPE/PUB_turf_Maintaining%20St.%20Augustine%20Grass%20Lawns.pdf

[@paddybarnes7776]

Hey doc. Already poor reviews on Amazon prior to product delivery!?! It’s been reported

[@HowTowithDoc]

LOL... yes the "haters" and trolls are out. It's tough on people when they run out of their medication.

[@rayflores8408]

Let's go!

[@edwingonzalez6073]

[@pczapp827]

The math for Nitrogen on a 13.6# bag of SuperJuice @ 14%N =1.9#N for the entire bag. At .5# per 1,000/per APP, your going to get just under 4,000 sq feet per bag --Not An Acre ! Do the math for us, on what your intentions are when using this product & just what rate of Nitrogen is going down, as you have described the way or how you suggest applying it. All said or asked --- You do have one of the Best Videos on You Tube, for Lawn Care

[@CDGenesis79]

I have to tell you that I’ve followed your advice since early spring last year for my front yard. I love how you do your videos and I’ve been very happy with the results. I’m also following you this year and I’ve even taken your advice with the chainsaw Bermuda lol. Those two trees out front got the chainsaw good. I’m also in Georgia (west) and your advice works no doubt. Hoping to get ahold of some super juice soon once it’s back in stock!🤞Thanks for all your videos and help!

[@chrissilver6767]

It's now available on Amazon for Order. Just ordered my supply for the season. ... hey look at that, it's also the #1 seller in Amazons "Fruit Juice Beverage" category, silly amazon.

[@LILK0NA]

HAha

[@gerrymaddock9234]

Is it safe to use if there is rain in the forecast starting tomorrow for the next few days? If my front yard is 2500 square ft, should I use 3/4 cup of powder then 1 gallon of water or less? I got the yellow sprayer recommended with sj on amazon, do I keep refilling the bottle to do the entire front ?

[@scottsyme5509]

Doc, great website and videos. I have a problem with my yard. Over the past several years my grass has been gradually thinning regardless of what I do. I just had a soil analysis performed and the results were 4 ppm Nitrogen, 2 ppm Phosphorus, and 151 ppm Potassium. The extremely low Phosphorus I think helps explain my issue. Adding Nitrogen is not a problem since all the fertilizers are predominately Nitrogen rich, however I am having a problem finding anything with high Phosphorus content. My pH is also a 7.8 so I need to work on that also. Please help! What would you recommend?

[@thanks_ace]

Has anyone used this around a vinyl fence (Mines white) and noticed staining with the added dye? Haven't used it yet but will keep back a few feet if necessary

[@greghughes7175]

Doc, I purchased my first bag of Super Juice, I mixed it and it had to set a few days before I could finish. When i returned, there was mold in the mix and the bag had a lot of moisture in it. Is that a common issue?

[@robingirard1559]

Amazon wont ship this to California is there something similar I can buy at Home depot etc?

[@robertriley2010]

Says that it won’t ship but I purchased it and it shipped no problem I’m in Bakersfield

[@ckf02a]

Wish I could give this video 2 thumbs up!!! I'm so excited to test this super juice out this year!

[@carlosaracil7980]

Hello Doc, I have been using SJ since about may and have been pleased with the results thus far. Last weekend (10/17/20) I aerated, overseeded with TTTF and KBG and put down an application of SJ at a 7-1-2 ratio. Should I continue to put down SJ every 2-3 weeks during the fall or discontinue use till the spring? BTW, I am located in northern NJ. Tnx in advance for any advice.

[@randyman8984]

Do you think this will be better than the liquid lawn you added last season? I think it was a 10-1-2

[@davidvandruff9368]

Doc, what liquid pre-emergent from Home Depot or Lowes would you suggest for a co-application with the Super Juice? I have both a Bermuda and St. Augustine grasses.

[@SlayDawg]

Hey Doc! I am just catching up on all your videos. I am planning to start doing my own bermuda lawn in West Texas. You said to use half the amount of granular if you plan to use super juice. I think this may have been done before PGF Complete was out. Do you use the normal bag rate for the PGF Complete and use the Super Juice as described at the rate in this video? Or are you cutting your PGF Complete rate to half? Thanks for all the great content.

[@mikefitzpatrick5209]

Hey Doc, do you have any experience thoughts commnets on a product called Revive?

[@jonhawkins2374]

Can I please , Sir have some super juice. SIR.. Oliver Twist... LoL

[@rchiuz01]

Hi Doc, I just received my super juice. If I am treating 1000 sq ft at the 7-1-2 ratio, how much material do I need? 1/3 of a cup?

[@HowTowithDoc]

Since it's spring, I would treat at the 14-2-4. It's very mild FYI. One cup will treat 1500 sq ft at the 14-2-4 so 2/3 cup.

[@mannychava3863]

Hey Doc what percentage of sea kelp is in this ? And do you recommend any other spray marker that’s not a dye . Maybe a foam.

[@michaelshea5427]

Ok Doc, what day this month can we buy it from Amazon? I'm excited! Thank you for all your help! My yard is by far the best in the neighborhood thanks to you!

[@MrKyle200]

Curious on the response

[@jnutt383838]

Me too

[@centralpaslots4202]

Doc...i also would like to put down a pre-emergent.....in what order should I put down the product.??

[@HowTowithDoc]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/nWXdgYF-nraHpJI That should clear it up.

[@MrCorneliani]

Hey Doc - looking forward to trying your formulation. Can you clarify how much N is actually being put down at the 14-2-4 ratio? It's obviously not .14 of N per lb (as we're used to calculating for granular) cause that won't give you 1 acre/bag as you mentioned (or 2ac @ 7-1-2). But if I work it backwards for the coverage you state then the N per 1000 is really negligible and my slow-release granular is pretty much required for deep feedings, and the SuperJuice is the on-demand 'espresso shot' for instant results. Am I on the right path understanding this?? I like the results I see as well as the concept of the product but my brain cells conked out halfway through the math.

[@scottcgrable]

Cornel I’m also wondering about this 👍🏻

[@HowTowithDoc]

We'll be doing a video on this in a couple of weeks. This is the thought I want you to think about until then. If you put down 1 pound of N in a slow release fert on Monday... how much N will your lawn get over the next 7 days? Let's say you don' get any rain during that period. Any? The "pounds" thought of mind really is kind of confusing. You'll understand when you see the video.

[@Neejay]

Doc, is it too late to use SJ or should I just wait till Spring? I have a new bag and sprayers already. I'm just south of Atlanta. New home, so I'm playing catch-up with the yard.

[@4rdzlla]

is super juice to be used while doing green shocker like I am now weekly. and then once done with that and move to pfg complete. is juice suppose to be with pff complete or is that way to much. I'm scared to burn a lawn ever since I burned my old lawn with nitrogen lol

[@scottwilson9600]

I went on Amazon to purchase some Super Juice, but they don't ship to California. Is there another product you recommend for those in Zone 8 in California?

[@SmartHerSparty]

Getting the super juice in today from amazon...going out to by the bioadvanced weed control product you listed (good reviews for the most part) AND a sprayer similar to the ones you recommend from ACE hardware now (the green nozzled one is unavailable on amazon and I didn't want to pay $13 in shipping for the other one ;) pt being...i have studied you vids and amexcited to use to product to see the results THIS WEEKEND :p

Will straight Super Juice stain concrete like driveway, side walks or Home fountains. Or say if I use the tea spoon of dye with the Super Juice will this stain concrete as I mentioned above. Thanks Doc this sounds like a great product. Very detailed video

[@elchorizero9308]

Is there any other way to apply super juice to my lawn(ie watering can). I dont have access to a garden hose(sprayer is out the door for me), I water my small patch of lawn with a watering can. Can I use a watering can to apply super juice?

[@bobziadie2988]

Hi Doc, can you provide the name of the sprayer you use to apply super juice, the one with the green nozzle. Would like to order on Amazon. Thanks.

[@robertjackson7590]

Hey Doc, most already have the Miracle Grow sprayer including me. Consider, put 2 cups in it and spray? They disperse at 1/2 oz per gallon? It might make it easier, I didn't get any particles when I mixed SJ in the gallon container. It broke down well and was pure liquid. Just a thought.

[@Rocky-xx2zg]

Mr. Doc, I plan to use your 1/2 rate application. What would be the number of Cups for my 20 Gal. Tow behind Liquid Spreader? I think 6 cups, Correct?

[@mrjeremywayne]

Hey, I purchased your Super Juice. I have a cool season grass in NC. How many times can I apply this to my yard prior to summer to prevent burn? Or can I simply cut the application in 1/2 and feed throughout the summer?

[@travisoguin3897]

My understanding is that if I have a 15000 sq ft yard and I want to apply it at a 14-2-4 then I would mix 5 cups???

[@alan30189]

Seems like an excellent product. However, if you’re constantly out of stock, what good is it to somebody that can’t get it? I recommend you demand your supplier produce three or four times as much, so they don’t run out of stock, plus they can get the price down. You’ll sell more. Then if you don’t run out of stock, you can determine what your true annual demand is, figure out how much of that demand is from new customers, determine the annual growth rate, and adjust your manufacturing to that demand and growth. Tell your supplier it’s unacceptable to run out of stock. Even though it’s a good product, it’s too expensive. Add too much blue lawn dye, and you instantly turn your Bermuda into Kentucky Bluegrass! 👍🏼 😂🤣😂🤣 Great tips on hose-end sprayers.

[@chrissilver6767]

Hey doc, does the dye stain your sidewalk? Or fence?

[@HowTowithDoc]

You might get a VERY light hint of blue on sidewalks that lasts for a few days, but you REALLY have to look for it. Eventually you get good at not spraying anything but grass.

[@Legendary_UA]

For anyone looking for a container with a spigot, go to WalMart and look in the kitchen section. There are water dispensers in there that should do the job for a reasonable cost. They won't hold five gallons, but for a two gallon unit for around $8, this is cost efficient.

At FULL strength the mix smells like a gentle salt marsh. All you can smell is a slight hint of the sea kelp. Once sprayed there is zero odor.
