Thank you for sharing these videos. They are very interesting. A little bit entertaining. And definitely educating. And I do appreciate all three of those.

Your view into the background of your house is amazing. Good video!

I recently received a couple tons of “screened” top Soil and it had a lot of rocks like yours did. What I did was take chicken wire (3x 3’ x 3’ squares of it) placed them staggered on top of each other and nailed them to a wooden square frame I made with 2”x4”s. Placed that homemade “screener” on top of my wheel barrel and every shovel of soil I scooped from the pile was screened before going into the lawn. Extra work, but I did not have to go over the entire yard afterwards trying to pick up
Thousands of tiny rocks and it turned out like amazing. Already have grass growing thick. Maybe someone will find this useful.

Anyway, looking forward to seeing how this all turns out Ginja. I’m sure it will be awesome as usual 👍🏽 👌🏽

Love the “suck”, enjoyed your seeing your offspring helping you and your excitement of being on step closer to cutting tips.

[xomgitsjay]

subscribed for this journey. My backyard is full of weeds and I need to start over. This might be the series I needed lol

Ginja Jr :"We just barely started and we're almost done!"
YES! Train 'em up in the way they should go. 👍🏼

[gary]

Wow, your work ethic is inspiring! Great job Ginja!

[TanTheMan]

I'm actually glad you included a price estimate in this project for the price of dirt. I love watching these kinds of videos and getting ideas, but I'm sure I'm like many of the viewers here that don't have a lot to spend so picking which projects to do with our budget is very important. Including things like how much dirt you got for the price would be nice too. Even for people not on too much of a budget like to compare the prices of having someone else do it vs DIY.

[jamzach]

Great job Ginja !! Embracing the suck all the way through. Can’t wait to watch the progress.

[TeslaBoy]

[MagnumVideos]

Nicely done, sir! That's going to look gorgeous when you're finished.

I had a 10 yd project. A 9 inch dip between houses and regrading a few areas that were in bad shape. I used my riding mower, raked, then pulled a chain link fence to pack and grade the ground. Adjusted with aerator and regrading then over seeded spraying with Tenacity about 5 days after seeding. Worked beautifully! Embraced the suck when the high school kid across the street didn't show till after 7+ yds were moved and left 2 hrs later. Just made the first mowing last week. Thanks for the motivation.

So when I worked for Trugreen and I have seen your lawn in person. I have subscribed because I have very little training about certain types of things you have covered on your channel. I have learned alot. I still find your channel entertaining and informative even though I don't work on customer lawns anymore.
