Quick tips on Scotts (drop) spreaders: use the recommended drop rate # as a *starting* place. It's almost never been right in the 3 decades I've used them. Fortunately, I typically find I'm putting it down WAY lighter than expected, so I do a second perpendicular application. I'll also adjust my drop rate so it's heavier along fence lines & driveways/sidewalks, where you're most likely to get invasions by certain weeds.. and then lighter in areas where I don't typically see weeds year-over-year. Always best, regardless, to set your drop rate, fill the hopper half-full or so, test the rate over a driveway so you can see how much is coming out, adjust if desired, do the yard a bit, decide if you're dropping at the desired rate by how fast the hopper is emptying, re-adjust, refill, and continue. Smart also to clean your drop spreader ahead (and allow time to air dry) *and* test the wheels, cable, and drop door mechanism BEFORE loading it with material to be sure it works. Chemicals *will* clog and rust it over time... some worse than others.

He had the ONLY green lush lawn in his subdivision - he thought no one would know what he was doing, ha! He told me he used to dream about his lawn. Okay, I'm not that far gone! I think we got the lawn OCD from my father. He's 92 and still wants a good looking lawn. I got him a lawn service (and paid for it myself) - two of them, he wasn't pleased with either! Hope there's lush lawns up in heaven otherwise he'll be ticked off!

Over 45 years, I've owned 5 homes and have always enjoyed taking care of my lawns. Most of them, I actually planted from grass seed after installing (yep I did it trenching and all) an irrigation system! For what it's worth, here are a few of my recommendations. 1) Watering. I will say at the forefront that if you want a successful lawn, you absolutely must have an irrigation system that regularly waters your lawn at 0500 in Spring/Fall (in cooler climates) as trying to do it by hand just doesn't work! In Winter, most grasses go dormant and depending on where you live, the seasonal rains normally provide enough natural irrigation. Big Summer watering tip here that I learned from a wonderfully skilled and very valued Mexican landscaper I knew in San Diego - if you live in a hot arid climate like So Cal, be sure to water your lawn at 7pm in the Spring/Summer - yes 7pm so the water can really sink in as the sun will literally sublimate the water out if you water in the early morning! 2) Fertilizing. Not being a fan of broadcast spreaders, I've always used a Scotts drop spreader because it's easy to align the arrows on the back top of the spreader body with the spreader wheel track on the grass and using Scotts TB weed/feed, you set the recommended drop setting and away you go. Aligning the spreader body arrows with the wheel tracks on your lawn is critical, otherwise you will get the dreaded paler stripes due to inadequate coverage! I fertilize quarterly because it lasts about 3 months with regular irrigation and do an extra application in the Fall to harden the lawn before Winter. 3) Annual Aeration/Overseeding. The other critical thing that I have always done is to do an annual aeration (I've rented the aerator from HD but it's really easier to hire this out for $100 or so) and then overseed with fresh - yes fresh grass seed - via my same Scotts drop spreader in both the Fall and early Spring - this makes a huge difference!!! 4) Soil pH. Get a soil pH meter (they're cheap), test your lawns soil pH, then adjust with pelletized lime via your spreader - do it as it really works! 5) Soil Building. I also semiannually apply granular dolomite and gypsum which conditions your soil by breaking down compacted clay through ion exchange and causes excess sodium salts to leach out. Both apps are nonburning and nonirritating! 6) Green-up. Got a special event coming up and/or you want a deeper emerald green lawn - apply Ironite and you'll get it! Anyway, there you go - many decades of successful lawncare distilled down into 6 must do steps with all the components being available at your friendly big box stores. Remember one thing - none of this will happen if you stay on the couch and it will take you 30 or so minutes to do the separate fertilizer, grass seed, and soil conditioner applications - which equates to 1.5 hours per calender quarter! So put the application schedule on your computer/smartphone outlook calendar to remind you, get out there and do it, and reap the satisfaction you will get from knowing your lawn will grow and thrive. Good luck!

Will the Scotts weed and feed take out large patches of clovers, crabgrass and dandelions?
@stevejensen3471
@stevejensen3471 2 жыл бұрын
@@izzyh.3581 As a pre-emergent fertilizer, Scotts is okay - but it's far better to get specific herbicide preparations for those - mix them up in either a hose-end sprayer or a 1 to 3-gallon Chapin sprayer for large areas - thats what I do. You can get the herbicides on Do-It-Yourself Pest Control (DYPC). For clover - I use Tenacity concentrate as it's both a pre/post- emergent and also mix it with a surfactant (also buy at DYPC) so the stuff sticks to the clover. Also be sure to distinquish between clover and sedge because they look similar and require specific herbicides. For dandelions, its really best to get rid of the entire weed via the Fiskars standup weedpuller - it's easy and it literally pulls them out of the ground root and all - it's actually satisfying to see them pulled out! I pulled about 600 of them out of my neglected lawn when we bought our place here in Aberdeen, WA. For normally isolated crabgrass, get one of the spray bottle preps at Home Depot, spot treat them, and then rake them out and reseed with fresh grass seed.

@@stevejensen3471 thank you for all the information and I'll be sure to check them all out. Do you recommend doing all these same chemicals and procedures for commercial use? You see, I plan on making a 1gallon 30% vinegar/2lbs of sodium chloride and some soap as a "near organic" herbicide. From my understanding its indiscriminate and will kill most plants. That's my first concern, my second is the fact that it adds salt to the soil. Minimum- spot areas. Maximum- giant 10x10 areas such as my backyard. My last concern is my equipment. I don't want to ruin my backpack sprayer and can't find much info on how it will affect the polymers and metals used. I do like that you stated dolomite and gypsum will leach out sodiums but I wonder how much they'll counterbalance. I plan on using this concoction on more mulch styled lawns, concrete walk ways, and rock paths but also for spot spraying flower beds. Is this all just a bad idea? I don't like the thought of round up causing cancer or any other chemical that can cause it. Also I'm thinking about pet friendly and eco conscious clients. I'm sorry if I dropped a bomb on you but I'd love to hear what you have to say :).

In fact, the lawn care guys who take care of the place next door came over and asked me how I got my grass so darn green and weed-free! I surprisingly looked at him and said "well regular water and fertilizer - it's that simple - oh and a friendly dose of ironite!" :) Your vinegar/salt/soap solution will be fine for a Chapin widemouth sprayer as the seals and gaskets on those are either polyurethane or viton. I'd advise picking up a 1-gallon Chapin as again that's what I do and the convenience is more than worth it! I actually have 3 of them - a 1, 2, and 3-gallon - all widemouth so they are easy to clean!

After a week it showed weeds dying but it left me feeling like it wasn't enough. Finally after 2 weeks my lawn looked amazing. All weeds were gone and I have grass seeding on top. I've grown fond of lawn work and appreciate great lawns when driving past houses. I wish I'd watched this before venturing the lawn aisle. 😅

Typically there would be some information on application intervals on the packaging. Applying too frequent can cause more damage than good. With the products that I use (professionally) we try to keep the applications roughly 30-45 days apart due to the fertilizer. Weed control we keep 2 weeks apart minimum and is separate from the fertilizer. With that said, the chances of getting ALL weeds with one application is slim. You would need to make multiple applications to get all (probably never "all" but small enough quantities that you wouldn't notice any). Depending on the severity of the weed problem it make take (as he mentioned) a year or so to rid the weeds. Proper watering and mowing can also play a significant role in weed maintenance. So keep that in mind. With the empty spots you might want to over seed. Check your location for best seeding times here it is fall but can be effective in spring. With the "preventative" control measure it will stop any new seedlings from growing which will require you to halt the use of that product to give it long enough to loose its effectiveness so new seeds can grow. BEFORE you apply new grass seed. A thick/lush lawn is a difficult lawn for weeds to grow.
