Winter killed off my buffalo lawn

Great vid with lots of interesting content. Thanks!

My pleasure

@aussielawn I’m about to renovate my SWB in Victoria. Still a few weeds about and a little patchy. Should I scalp or wait until the patches are gone?

[@theaussielawn]

It's really hard to advise mate as I cant see it. But If its actively growing and its getting full sun and a scalp is necessary then yeah go for it

[@MpR275]

@@theaussielawn yes I can see that it’s starting to wake up and come out of dormancy so I guess that answers the question

[@mielkamielka552]

Another great knowledgeable video.

Thank you

[@charlie11-11]

Plant doctor says their not foliar applications. Is there a reason you don’t wanter in until later? My understanding is that they are not doing anything by sitting on the leaf? Thoughts?

[@theaussielawn]

Hi mate to best answer your question can you be specific to which products you are referring to?

[@charlie11-11]

@@theaussielawn activ8mate, seaweed.quantum, stimulizer. I was told to lightly water in if not using 12L of water to 100m2. Does also say that on their guide I believe… I could be completely wrong though.

Thanks Paul hope you have had a good weekend

The Durban grass is looking good 👍

[@theaussielawn]

Yeah Its a really useful grass but it is very site specific but that being said i definitely have a soft spot for it

[@Griggsy2529]

Nice info mate about shade, I face south and about to do Reno and keen on tiff tuff but worried about shaded areas and not getting best results out of couch, any advice of experience with tiff ruff in shade and will it thrive with about 5 hours in certain parts during warmer months, keen on using plant doctors products as well heard good reviews and seen some good results compared to these more expensive products

[@theaussielawn]

Providing you don't want to get below 10mm in cutting height and have some sympathy toward it in the cooler months e.g keeping traffic to a minimum etc plus where you are lcxatioed will also be a key factor in its success

[@Griggsy2529]

@@theaussielawn I’m down Wollongong way mate so not to cold over cooler months and I usually over-sow in autumn to maintain colour, real keen on trying out the tiff tuff after doing bit of research seems to really stack up over other varieties

[@sdc0386]

Good stuff the plant doctor. Should be a good season 👍

[@theaussielawn]

Fingers crossed mate !

Bit of non selective Herbicide be good fertiliser for buffalo

[@GavinCarelse-ne2rg]

I'm Gavin from Capetown in south Africa I planted my own buffalo and I still have some empty patches what can I do to fill up the whole section can u please advise if I can send u a picture how and where do I send it to

[@restoblastrestoblast154]

Hi Brentton, could you safely use the plant doctor products on Grass trees & kangaroo paws? Even at a reduced rate, i have a fair amount of them, around my house & would like to boost their overall health and appearance, even though, they are doing well.

[@PaulStephens-ie8vl]

certain products definitely

[@restoblastrestoblast154]

@PaulStephens-ie8vl which 1's might they be mate, if you know ? Otherwise i won't risk it.

[@PaulStephens-ie8vl]

@@restoblastrestoblast154 seaweed secrets stimulizer activ8mate spray on leaf to dry on and around soil you can use soil wetters humic acid stimulzer and water in

[@philrichmond5919]

Seaweed secrets and soil wetter as that supports the soil biome and aids water penetration, but otherwise just a good granular fert for native plants occasionally. Don’t think PD have a native plant fertiliser, but Neutrog Bush Tucker is available in 20kg bags which makes it reasonably economical. They don’t need a lot of feeding.

[@PaulStephens-ie8vl]

@@philrichmond5919 you can use plant doctor products on natives they also have a range for indoor plants too

[@paulthomas3782]

Great video Brenton, I love how maintenance free the Buffalo grass is with amazing colour but don't like the big leaf. You're make over is coming a long amazing thanks for the update Cheers.

[@theaussielawn]

Appreciate it mate

[@mclarengreenworx]

Great video mate been watching you for a while now. I’m in singleton and have just left the mining industry after 20 years and doing landscaping full time. Keep up the great work and hope to meet up some time.

[@theaussielawn]

Hey mate oh wow 20years is a long time, Bet it feels good to take off the golden handcuffs, Yeah mate sounds good to me 😎

[@antonyv8171]

When you’re spraying liquid fert on your plants and hedges, are you spraying the top part of the hedge/leaf, or are you aiming the sprayer down at the base of the plant/root base? Does it matter? Thanks

[@theaussielawn]

Yea mate on the leaf, Thats where the reference to "foliar fert" it is applied to the foliage of the plant or grass

[@WOODZY_]

Hopefully the buffalo repairs quickly for you mate, Bloody global warming 😂 Can’t wait to see how the zoysia progress’s along. Enjoy the night shifts mate🤙

[@theaussielawn]

Hey mate, yeah she will come good, Good old nightshifts gotta love'm
