The secret to a thick lawn starts here // Beginner lawn care tricks

Welcome to my video on "The secret to a thick lawn starts here". Are you tired of looking at a thin and patchy lawn? Or a Beginner and want some lawn care tricks
Well, you've come to the right place! In this video, I'll be sharing some tips and tricks on how to renovate your lawn to achieve a thick and lush green lawn.
First things first, I start by cutting the lawn a little shorter than usual. While scalping a lawn before seeding can have some cons, such as exposing the soil to more sunlight and increasing the risk of weed growth, it also has its pros.
Scalping helps to remove dead grass and create a clear surface for new growth to emerge.
Next up, aeration! Aerating your lawn is a vital step in lawn renovation as it allows air, water, and nutrients to penetrate deep into the soil. This helps to promote root growth and create a healthy environment for new seedlings to thrive.
After aeration, I scarify the lawn to remove thatch. Thatch is a layer of dead grass, leaves, and other debris that accumulates on top of the soil.
Removing thatch from a lawn is essential as it allows the grass to receive better access to water, air, and nutrients, creating an ideal environment for seedlings to take root.
Once the debris has been cleared up and the lawn has been mowed to remove any remaining debris, it's time to mix up some soil in a compost roller along with some heat-treated weed-free bagged screen topsoil with grass seed.
The seed I used for this project is rye and fescue, which is an excellent choice for a shaded lawn as it is tolerant of low light conditions.
Using a lawn lute, I work the material into the lawn to ensure even distribution.
Finally, I spray on some seaweed. Seaweed has many benefits when overseeding, such as increasing root growth, improving soil health, and enhancing plant growth.
And there you have it, the secret to a thick lawn! With these tips, you'll be able to renovate your lawn and enjoy a beautiful, lush green lawn in no time.

[@petedetraglia4776]

Here in the U.S. you can buy sifted top soil that is also dried and kept dry before and after they bag it..Most of best top soil companies use this method as the sifting helps elimate weed seeds from the top soil also.

Why would you aerate prior to dethatching. Doing it that way could drop weed seeds into the holes you just opened up? Here is the U.S. Poa Annua and Poa Trivialis runs rampid even when you spray pre immergent and post weed killer... Crab grass is bad here also in Upstate N.Y. where I live..

Thatch is a pain in the A for St Augustine yards. I usually just mow extremely low in early March with the catch bag on. I use that brown dried thatch in my compost pile. Use scotts 3 day and mow every week raising the cut a notch every week until you have a 4 inch cut. Remember St Augustine yards do great when kept about 3 to 4 inches.

[@xuyang3243]

Thank you very much for your video. Since watching it, I have gradually learned a lot about lawn knowledge, which is very helpful. Only slowly did I realize that my lawn had been encroached on by Poa annua. The area is very large, and I always thought it was normal before. Now I would like to ask, how should I choose to replant grasses that are more ornamental according to your video. I am in Birmingham, the lawn is about 110 square meters, most of it is well lit, because there are trees around it, a small part is shaded. The soil drainage is relatively good, there is no water accumulation, and a small part has green moss, which I think is too acidic. Can you give me some advice on grass seed selection for my situation? Thank you so much.

[@Premier_lawns_official]

You could lift the lawn and start again, but in a year or two it will be back. You can't stop it, learn to live with it is the easiest answer

Aeration can help if the lawn is compacted. If it has a lot of moss it will also hold onto the water. Deal with that first.

My yard would take LOTS of work to get it to even grow weeds. As it is, nothing grows in the front yard. It's heavily shaded, and not even weeds will grow in most of it. Also, the "soil" is basically just clay with a tiny bit of dirt mixed in. Digging in it is very much a chore. I once rented a gas-powered, 2-man auger to dig a hole so I could move a tree. That auger even had trouble getting through that ground. I fear making it so grass would grow would cost way too much.

It's about maintaining a healthy thatch layer, it also helps control the moss. Scarifying in itself helps a lawn to thicken up, you can 1000 percent still scarify now, though if we hit a dry spell in for a week or too you will have to water

Assuming there is growth you can apply weed control all year around However, a general rule in the UK is March to October The earlier or later in the year it should still work but if there isn't much growth it takes much longer to control the weeds and the lawn looks worse for longer as they die off

What is the caged soil dispenser called

[@zahraa.5450]

When do I do this? Early Spring or late fall?

[@petedetraglia4776]

Depends on your weather conditions. In Spring soil temperature need to be above 55 degrees to germinate. If you seed too late in the Spring hot temperatures could burn up your seedlings if your don't water a few times a day. Fall is the best time as temperature are warm not hot and the soil temperature should be well above 55 degrees. Depending on grass type you should try to get atleast 1 inch of water a week into the ground but if not definitely get a good misting of water on the seed 3 times a day if possible for best germination. Good luck...

I'm in the UK, well Northern Ireland to be exact. I do a lot of seeding in May, a lot of places in the UK start seeded in march or April but we can still get a good frost right up until may here in Belfast It will really depend on your local weather, I seed lawns but will also have to water them if we hit a dry spell.

Scissors? ✂️ ✂️

Just regular top soil as opposed to compost? No value seen in adding organic matter subsoil post aeration? Also seems interesting that scarification occurred after aeration as opposed to before. Genuinely curious about the decision-making here.

[@Premier_lawns_official]

What's wrong with doing the aeration first? The soil I used was a premium mix.

[@user-kr9wy9oo5s]

It is argued that by scarifying/dethatching first, it removes the thatch/debris layer and provides a clearer service area for the aeration@@Premier_lawns_official

Think of all that life (micro organisms) that live in that soil. I'm returning it to the lawn. A lot of people leave the cores on the lawn for this reason That looks too unsightly for my liking so this is a compromise

[@user-kr9wy9oo5s]

Fair enough, that is very much how I rationalized your processes in my head as well. Thanks for the reply @@Premier_lawns_official
