Are your neighbours smirking at your pale efforts at lawn care (and you want to prove them wrong?)

This video will help you fix the issue and bring it back to life in record time (often under 2 weeks).

You will need to install a few good practises though to help..

Regular mowing, and watering, and then there are a few products you can apply to revive it in record time.

Recommended tools:

The following additional tools are also what I personally use during my lawn renovations:

I use a Wolf Garten hand scarifying rake and also a compost spreader.

Compost used for topdressing:

Music used:
All music is found at epidemic sounds. I've used them for over 2 years

It’s not too bad, just a paler green. My lawn looks great now, a nice deep green, after it’s September scarification, over seeding and autumn/winter feed.I need to get some seaweed and iron on soon. Will definitely be buying some emerald green from you next year.

Hi Shaun, I’ve been desperately waiting for an insight to lawn treatments and what each treatment achieves for the lawn - brilliant video! I’m 29 and during the past 12-18 months I’ve started taking pride in my lawn, all thanks to you, for showing me how to, step-by-step. I’m at a point now where I find myself searching for different lawn tools on Amazon, everyday! My Mrs thinks I’ve lost my damn mind and when my knapsack sprayer arrives on Saturday I imagine it’s only going to give credit to her theory 😂 I dare not show her my ‘Gardening Tools’ list I have saved on Amazon; scarifier, hollow-tine aerator, compost roller, lawn roller, lawn lute… the list goes on and ON! 🤣 Thanks again mate, looking forward to what’s next!

Been moaning about rain. Now its too hot so Im praying for rain for my lawn!
Mine is looking lush with your tips.
I’ve been out lightly raking each morning!

In the North near Oldham we have hardly seen any sun in 1 year. Constant Rain!

Appreciate your time and knowledge👍finally sorted the small bare patches on mine, penny finally dropped when I'm weeding the borders there's always little plugs of grass and instead of chucking them with the weeds I've transplanted them into the lawn 🤷‍♂️👍😂

Your lawn looks like a billiard table compared to mine. I have picked up a few tips from you and come the autumn I'm aiming to tackle it for next year. Thank you, just subbed.

Hi I have only just come across you, I'm wondering if you can give me some advice. Just had a lawn turfed in May. different individuals give advice with treatment on lawns. You seem to be a good guy and comments on you are good.
Basically had a new lawn turfed some of it is not looking that good I done the instructions left after turfing watered every day 15mins, for 3weeks and then mowed after 6weeks. I have a few patches so now I have racked the lawn to get out thatch, I have airiated and sown a few seeds to the patches can I feed on a young lawn some say not until 6months. I need some sound advice. Lyn

Have you ever tried burnt wood ask (potash) devolved into water as a fertiliser for lawn turf?

[bluepatthecat]

Hi Sean, great vid, how long after a total reno would you do a first verticut

[LisaRedfern-Webb]

Hi Shaun. Am I right in presuming that you do not have a front lawn? We have purchased all of these ingredients and Neill will be treating our lawns tomorrow 😀

[jonhendry]

do you find it cheaper to combine your own individual fertiliser products than buying an all in one fertiliser?

Now living on the edge of a desert, I have had to go over to the dark side. 😢

I am waiting for another delivery before I can fit it but my gym is currently unusable because it has 200 metres of "césped artificial" in it.

Decent grass just will not grow here unless I create a local drought. It is not the same, but very easy to keep looking healthy and quite natural at 24mm with lots of blade and colour variation. I even think there is a little bit of thatch in it. Now I wish I hadn't given my scarifier to my old neighbour. 😂

Where's the Oregon sprayer? I've got one coming any day now (after seeing it on your channel), will be a big upgrade from the 5 litre "cylinder" one I've got now lol

[owbeer]

my lawn started to get brown right next to the neighbours hedge even with watering.
last night we had a thunderstorm with 65!! liters of water/square meter, problem solved. 😎

Hi Shaun, my wife said that if I stop smoking, with no dispute, that I could buy something out of the house savings. Cobra Fortis 14E, the tower and all the cartridges😮😂 bugger. Anyway, can I power rake, with the tines on highest setting. Don't have a verticutter, --yet-- cheers Shaun 😊
