Now I know why my zoysia grass died and it had to be replaced :( I initially blamed it on a recent cold snap here in Florida. But In retrospect, it was operator error...I burned it with weed and feed. 😐 Thanks for the info sir. Education is a powerful thing. Now I'll feel more confident with my lawn care going forward. I got all new grass and I won't make the same mistake twice.

[@sergiofreshkuttz9293]

Great way to explain 👍🏼😎

[@bettercallchadd]

Thank you!!!

[@Methodical2]

Great synopsis of Macro and Micro nutrients.

[@amazingrace4u]

You're the best! Exactly what I was looking for and I feel much less overwhelmed looking at products now. Glad I didn't pull the trigger on weed and feed after that "Lawn Care Nut" guy suggested it.

[@bettercallchadd]

Perfect!!! Its easy to be overwhelmed looking at all the options!! Now you can get exactly what you need!!

Thanks again. I hope you returned some of those high priced items

[@bettercallchadd]

Your welcome!! Im hoping to make some more future vidoes with them. But you are right about that high price!!!

[@darkmattersproject2951]

Your video was straight to the point. Very insightful. It’s helped me tremendously. I am getting into the landscaping business. The biggest take away was that high summer nitrogen

[@bettercallchadd]

@@darkmattersproject2951 glad to hear that!! That's exactly the goal of these videos. I really appreciate the feedback. Congratulations on your business!! Thats very exciting!! Once we reach 1,000 subscribers we will be making a turf Organics pro channel for business owners and others in the industry. Goodluck on the business and thank you for the support!!

Hi guys love the video do turf organics sell a books on how to treat St Augustine grass

[@bettercallchadd]

Thanks for the compliment!!! We do not. But we have some very exciting things coming this year!! Stay tuned. Thanks for the comment and support 👍

[@frederickmender5766]

Hey great channel. Ran across this channel looking for a simple day way to get my yard going. So everything in your videos I were spot on. I did everything wrong this year. So my questio to you what should I do now to finish out the season and prepare for next year? Thanks in advance

[@bettercallchadd]

Thanks for the question Frederick!! It depends what happened and what shape your lawn is in? Check out some of my other vidoes and that may help. If you can give me some details of what shape the lawn is in then I can give you more accurate advice. Thanks for the comment and support 👍

[@MrGoonerdv]

I wish I had found your video earlier as I burned my grass using a 28-0-3😩. Now I have to horrible grass😩😩

[@bettercallchadd]

Ohhh nooo!!😩😩 sorry to hear that. Best thing you can do is stay off the lawn, give it extra water and a minth after the product was applied put down potash (potassium) to help it try and recover. In this situation less is more. Goodluck on bringing your lawn back. Thank you for the comment ans support!!!

[@MrGoonerdv]

@@bettercallchadd Ok I'm gonna do that and give an update. Thanks for the advice

[@bettercallchadd]

@@MrGoonerdv please do!! I hope it can recover!!

[@plefevre7]

Liked and subscribed! Trying to recover some dead spots from the Texas freeze. I used Scott's S like a noob in March and have not seen good results. I will do the 50/50 soil & paver sand mix you suggested in another video, should I also try a fertilizer with a high phosphorus percentage to encourage my St. Augustine to grow laterally into those areas?

[@bettercallchadd]

Ohh nooo!!! Bonus s is no go!!! Glad to hear you are dome with that stuff. I recommend a shrub fertilizer. Like a 8 10 10. I wouldn't go to heavy on the phosphorous but a blend close the one I listed above what work great for that. Thanks for the comment and support 👍

[@jesussorto4574]

@@bettercallchadd ok so what should I use for my st Augustine grass, it also has alot of weeds in it! If you reply thank you lol

[@jpcampbell]

Since your channel is named “organics” will you do content on organic weed control and fertilizers ?

[@bettercallchadd]

Absolutely!! I like to make these videos for homeowners. We want make sure everything we recommend can bought online or at your local hardware store. We are testing many shelf brand organic products now. We want to make sure anything we recommend has been tested by us first. Not everyone will use Organics, knowing the right way to use even none organic products will help prevent over use of fertilizers. We want to cover a large range of products and lawn related vidoes!! Stay tuned, lots more to come. Thank you for the support!!

[@jaimepadilla9548]

Yep I'm taking that Scott's Southern weed and feed back. I guess I'll stick to milorganite I guess

[@bettercallchadd]

Definitely take it back. Check out the comment we left you on the other video. I recommended a good game plan to help with your lawn.

[@jaimepadilla9548]

@@bettercallchadd thank you I will

[@Ambrosius13]

Thank you fire the great video. I live in Ellenton FL. It is still high 80s and low 90s here but now that we are out of the blackout I want to fertilize. Any particular fertilizer that you would recommend?. My lawn st Augustine needs to thicken up and become denser. Sunniland?.

[@bettercallchadd]

A 16-0-8 would be perfect for what you are looking for. Apply that now. Then just potassium in the winter. Repeat the the 16 0 8 in the spring You can do miliorgnite between applications in the summer. Make sure the fertilizaters have micro nutrients as well.

[@richardsmith1161]

What about the liquid, version? That’s what I see at Lowe’s for lawns

[@bettercallchadd]

Hello Richard, thank you for the comment. The liquid versions just have a quicker release and do not last as long in the soil. For homeowner products I recommend granuler fertilizer but liquid will work too!!

[@nicolaseguigurenmilnes4627]

Thank you for your videos! I have a question. I’m in Miami. I can’t find anything like suggested in precious videos (20-2-11) to fertilize my st Augustine now… anything in Home Depot is over 25 in nitrogen and hard to find slow release over 50% or goes down to a 10-10-10… where can I get the right product? Any recommendation? Is osmocote an option? (Super expensive)

[@bettercallchadd]

Get sunniland 16 4 8. Or look at the other sunnlinad products. Unfortunately this year you will be looming to pay between 60 to 100 dollars for a 50 pound bag. Last year tt was about $25. Sadly it's just the way things are going!!😞

[@dm2286]

10-10-10 will work Texas heat ?

[@bettercallchadd]

Yess!!!

[@edgargiles3246]

Good videos! Which fertilizer do you recommend for St Agustítine for summer?

[@bettercallchadd]

There are videos on the channel that address this in detail. Micro nutrients are highly recommended.

[@Evermore2017]

UF did a soil test and said my phosphorus is high and potassium was low. Shouldn’t any of these recommendations start with a soil test before doing anything?

[@bettercallchadd]

Ideally yes. But not everyone is going to do that. This is a great basic fertilizer that will work for 90% lawns with our without a soil test. Now that you have that information you can pick a fertilizer just right for your lawn. Thanks for the comment and support 👍

Can I spray ironite on a palm tree

[@beba_dearest5030]

I need your help but am in Oakleaf, borderline Jax off Argyle. I messaged on FB hoping I can get you to come if not I will settle for a virtual consults pls pls pls

[@ChrisXCXCX]

You can only apply 2 lbs of phosphorus per year.

[@bettercallchadd]

Very good point!!! We should of mentioned that in the video. Every state has different laws and even counties do too. We definitely recommend checking with your local extension agency to find out what fertilizer restrictions your county has. I think that will make a great video. We will add it to the list.

[@ChrisXCXCX]

[@daniellugo6971]

I have that Scott’s one you showed. Should i not put it out or should i do half of what they recommend?

Just do half that way you do not waste the bag. Thanks for the comment and support 👍
