If I spend my hard earned money, I want to see as well as feel something for it. It would be like going to a hotel and getting dirty sheets and muddy carpet in the room.

Fescue is the dominant grass here, but the house we moved into had St Aug. It was bare in a lot of areas, so I transplanted some sections from the healthy side to the bare areas to help fill it in. A few weeks later my neighbor said “I see the weeds are taking over” and pointed at the plugs I put in. I told him it was actually St Augustine grass, but he said it looked like weeds to him. Now while his fescue lawn is browning up in the heat, my lawn is lush and about to get a dose of iron. Does it need to be greener? Nope. Am I doing it to rub it in his face? Hell. Yes.

You bring the nerdiness to the lawn and I LOVE IT!!! I have completed three soil tests for my lawn in its various parts and now I am working on a plan to treat my soil and to have my lawn be the best! I am in MN and rain has been hard to come by. Serious drought, low dew points and little cloud cover to help. That being said your products and tips have helped me keep my lawn growing and looking the best it can be. As I start to work the soil this late summer early fall, this thing is going to dominate in no time! Love your humor, content and positive attitude! Enjoy the mow!!

I thought Doug's letter was a compliment for the most part. Was the crab grass comment a subtle bit of sarcasm? Maybe it could have been. Your lawn is the best. Watching your vids I've accomplished Yard of the Year once. My new lawn is looking like the best on the street.

I can't tell if the response was also tongue in cheek as well. I was expecting a lot worse, tbh, lol

[@jakerose8927]

Yeah I think it hurts to hear St Aug referred to as “like crabgrass” but they are similar as Allyn has pointed out more than a few times on the channel. But certainly Doug’s comment was mostly complimentary, so I am sure after a craft beer and a decent cigar, Allyn will be okay. Enjoy the mow fellas.

I've been paying a different company to service my lawn for over 23 years. I have replaced sod I don't know how many times over the years so you know how expensive that was. The lawn companies to me just don't put anything in the yard The color was never right in my grass ever. It looks like they just spray water and keep going to the next house. I've been watching your video and few other KZbinrs about lawn care and I have to say I started doing it myself thanks to you and others. The sad part was I only did two applications in my yard my color got super dark green and it got super thick really fast. Before I will have yellow all in different areas of my yard and the lawn companies will always tell me it was wash out well I don't have it now.

Your lawn is beautiful! I have hopes of my lawn being that nice in a year or two. It was very neglected before we bought this house. We over seeded in the spring and it is thickening up. Most of it anyway. Will thrown down some more seed this fall. Hubby hates to water but when we are going through a dry spell he will let me water once or twice a week. My husband is stuck on using weed and feed. This fall since we are finally out of it I’m going to suggest we just feed it for one last hurrah before winter. Middle TN has had a weird summer this year. It’s either super wet or super dry. But my lawn is looking better and for that I am thankful! Keep the videos coming. Hopefully one day we can replace our mower. What zero turn munches the best? We have a smaller lawn but my husband is insistent that we get a zero turn next go around.

[@Jv9319]

So is it better to mulch?

[@brucegaskill1236]

I live in the Texas and have had St. Augustine over 50 years but Doug is right. Nobody has ever walked or sat in my grass and commented how soft it felt till I started overseeding my yard with perennial ryegrass. My grandchildren and neighbor’s grandchildren love to come over and walk barefooted in it during the “cool season”. People reach down and touch it just to make sure it is real. I’m loosing most of the warm season grasses now due to the rye’s natural defenses and because 2,4-d is slowly killing out my St. Augustine. I now have a dark green yard 8 months of the year and summer is now my off season. Money I save not watering St. Augustine pays for my grass seed every fall. Not having to mow much July through early September during 90-105 degree heat hasn’t hurt my feelings either.

[@padreof3]

Alan, I’ve been stalked your videos, taken your boot camp course and was wondering….. with my cool weather grass and fall growth season coming. Would you be willing to do a video of fall layout of what to prepare for? My current plan is to dethatch, cut at 2.5” and bag, overseed, water to keep soil damp about 2-3 times a day and lay down 12-12-12 two days after seeding. Can you help a noobie wanna be?

[@TheLawnCareNut]

This is an excellent topic and one I will be addressing in August for sure! thanks bro!!

[@padreof3]

@@TheLawnCareNut I really appreciate your reply. I’ve been putting a bunch of thought and planning or at least trying into this. Also need to see if I do this…. Do I aerate before or after. If after how long after? Being in western NY my fall can be pretty short some years.

[@JonDisnard]

St Aug is the best grass, period. Mine is so lush, and subtle, it's like walking on a cushion.When done correctly the broad blades will snuff out the wild Bermuda. Lots of nitrogen, or course, but the key is to avoid shallow root syndrome. Let the lawn grow tall, which promotes deep roots. When the summer peaks, the rain subsides, those deep roots will access the down-deep water. Then when the drought happens, with established deep roots, one begins to lower the deck and that permits the roots to less aggressively nourish of the top side, thus maintaining a deep green. Use phosphorus and iron supplements to the normal nitrogen, but be careful with pot-ash. As some of you know pot-ash mixed with water creates lye, and that changes the PH-balance in the soil, and st Aug needs a specific PH level. Look at the paper by Texas A&M professors on st Aug, it's a treasure of technical details. Best of Luck!

Dude, I’ve never seen St Augustine as absolutely gorgeous as yours; my brother used to have that grass type but he always kept it so short; I had no idea it could look that good at that length. I’m totally in with you; I love a gorgeous lawn. I have been using a push powered reel mower since May of 22 but I’ve come a long way and my Bermuda is looking good at a half inch.

[@bryanholder1329]

Allen, maybe you should start doing your own hot composting or barrel composting using your bagged grass clipping , leaves, banana peels, coffee grounds, egg shells etc from your over grown mows. Then when there is a fertilizer ban you can simply use one of those rolling top dressing spreaders to lay down the compost maybe some sand for that little natural burst of fertilizer. It does not qualify as “fertilizer” in the city’s eye but as “native soil additive”. As it is less likely to wash away in rain storms. This will put the nutrients you are kissing back into the lawn as well as add additional ones from the food you have added to the compost. Which will better your lawn in the long run. It will also shrink how much trash you throw away too.

[@bryanholder1329]

Oh and you can use the compost to make compost tea of which you can spray and pray for a cheaper price. In back pack sprayers, hose end or like me in a pull behind tractor sprayer. I have found that I can control the NPK by what I put into the tea simply increasing the banana peels or coffee grounds etc.

[@ChloePacheco]

I live in TX and have probably 80% St Augustine and 20% Bermuda. I love St Aug grass, it’s so resilient and really helps keep weeds out when it creates its highway network of hearty stolons everywhere. I honestly love the crunch it makes when you walk on it, doesn’t feel like it’s a delicate flower you gotta baby. Can’t wait for the day it takes over the entire lawn, I’m playing the long game. Not a fan of how the Bermuda seems to hold water on the top of the turf, St Augustine is designed to have the water go directly where it needs and is more pleasing to walk through after a rain or watering as your shoes don’t get drenched like I’ve found the puffy Bermuda does. Dealing with patches of Crabgrass, I would get slightly offended if someone called my healthy St Aug lawn Crabgrass as well as it is absolutely an insult. Just shows ignorance because crabgrass is ugly and a nuisance to have.

Allyn, much respect for you're great attitude!

I have bermuda Zoysia and Del mar St Aug. I was walking barefoot and the St Aug feltthe best. It depends on the cultivar. My original gras was some kind of Common St Aug and it felt like a nail file. My Del mar feels like I'm walking on a felt carpet.

Allyn that video rocked! I haven't gotten on you St Aug boys but I'll tell you that my KBG is having a good summer so far so get ready for some major fall cool season videos from up this way here in NJ. By the way, I'm a huge Miami Vice fan, your music selection for the closeout sunset brought it home! Be well!

Can someone tell me what the deal is with the fertilizer ban he was talking about?

[@andrewhiserodt2900]

Any products out there to kill Chamberbitter? I have centipede grass.

[@experimentchannel9692]

Just gotta say your channel got me into lawn care, currently doing a Reno on my neglected cool season lawn. Honestly I wish I could do Bermuda but our winters would kill it off...

[@thedimevision5899]

Your f**king awesome brother, so is your lawn! Thank You for everything you do brother!

[@-What-are-your-thoughts]

It’s like everyone’s got something to say nowadays and don’t even think about how it’s going to effect someone. I’m from Ohio and your tips along with the rest of the lawn community has given me the tools to dominate my neighborhood. Thank You Sir !

[@lanceb940]

Love your lawn bro! It’s not just about the grass down there, it’s all of the tropical foliage that comes with southern living. Nice pad bro. 👌

Thanks Allyn. With all the rain we’ve had in Chicagoland, my Flagship-fed lawn still looks great after the one feeding on May 4th.
