Overseeding Question

I've wanted to nuke my grass and renovate with KBG for years but my wife is not on board with using that much roundup with our well. has anyone ever overseeding using KBG and had any luck with incorporating KBG into the existing grass? I was hoping I could do this for a few years and end up with mor...

Re: GreenGrow Soil Test - 2019

It was the latter. I usually pick up 25 bags and drop that in one application. It gets hard to find the time to drive down to pick up 1 app at a time but I don’t want to overload the truck. I called a few weeks back and they hadn’t bagged so I picked up the Urea and used that. I was happy with the r...

Re: Ken-n-Nancy Soil Test - Spring 2019

Did you get the SOP at Achilles and epsom in Nashua? I’m on the hunt and figured you could point me in the right direction. I’m in SNH too

Re: GreenGrow Soil Test - 2019

Thanks Andy! I can find the SOP and will start everything you suggest right away. To offset the costs for BSF, I’ve been using Urea 46-0-0. How many lbs per month can I apply this? I just dropped 2# /k last week before this weekend’s cookout

GreenGrow Soil Test - 2019

Yard is 30k sq. ft, with irrigation which I try to get 1" down per week (natural or irrigation). I often visit BayState and get down about 1.5lbs per k every other month during the summer. I mow around 3" to 4" over the summer with my NoMix. I'd like to get your thoughts on how to get my grass to th...

Re: Apply Urea for the first time

I assumed we were talking about Urea 50-0-0. when I hear the word Urea, my mind goes right to that so I was wondering why such a high amount of nitrogen. I have an extra bag of Urea 50-0-0 in the basement and have a birthday party for my daughter coming up and was hoping this post was about applying...

Re: Apply Urea for the first time

So why are you dropping Urea now? I’ve always wanted to for a quick green up but have always been afraid of over fertilizing and all of the adverse effects that would have. I’ve only dropped Urea in November
