Do you have pictures?? I'm wondering if it was the sprayer? I have one similar and the "mist" isn't all that great as its a cone spray and not a fan spray. How much NIS did you add to the solution? Just seeing if we can narrow it down to it not working.

I would definitely go with a battery powered sprayer. I have a .25 acre lot and a Stihl SG20 and it plums wears me out trying to broadcast spray with it.

It's all good I was just giving you a hard time is all.

I reel mowed to 7/18". Aerated, edged, weedeated. Put down pre-em and 19-19-19. Cut my neighbors yard because he's out of town. Kicked my butt in the heat. Double score for the unexpected storm just as i was finishing. ImageUploadedByYard Help1469321545.312187.jpg ImageUploadedByYard Help1469321562...

Can i put down pre-em right now? I'm assuming not.

Yes, you can put down PreM now! It shouldn't affect the grass at all since it is used for the soil.

How's the lawn coming along??? If I were you I would just apply 1 lb of Nitrogen a month and make sure it's getting plenty of water. You would be surprised at how fast it will spread and choke out the weeds. Then start with a good PreM program this fall.

When spot spraying Celsius, you just want to mist the weed, don't over do it as you can stunt the growth of grass around the weed. It doesn't take much for the Celsius to work. A good fan type nozzle will work best and not apply too much product.

No. The guy that sharpened mine says he doesnt believe in backlapping. (I dunno anything about the sharpening process). He takes the bedknife off and sharpens it separately. I'm just now getting into the reel mower game. Sent from my iOS device using the Yard Help App Backlapping allows you to "sha...

As long as you spray the FAS in the evening and water it in the next morning you will be fine!!! Bermuda is a very tough grass and is very hard to kill and any damage is gone in a week or two.

I would say that he would easily be able to get the money he put into it back on that mower since its in tip top shape. Mowers like that brand new go for around $40K. There is a premium for well cared for and maintained reel mowers.

Love that movie!!! Too bad that seems like where our society is heading.

Still a long way to go but a world of difference from the past couple years. My front yard was 85% Centipede/15% Bermuda 2 years ago and 60/40 last year. Then I decided to start cutting low and push the Bermuda. I've still got a lot of areas that are working to grow in. 5/2 https://s32.postimg.cc/q...

My initial thought was water too and maybe some fertilizer but would like to know more before assuming anything.

Hello and welcome!!!! I think we will need a lot more info to help you. How have you been watering, fertilizing and mowing and anything else you have done to the lawn?? The more info the better!!

They are an easy fix, usually you just have to unscrew the old one and screw in the new one and adjust it and your done.

When you see a sod truck on the highway and get excited and then try to figure out what kind of grass it is!


REEL MEN MOW

If they are that old you may need to replace them but I would try to take them out and clean them as there might be some dirt in the gears. You can check Lowes/Home Depot for new ones or look at http://www.sprinklerwarehouse.com. Do you know what you currently have?

I installed the Rachio yesterday and it was very simple and straightforward process and so is using the app. I think I have the basics set up for now but will still do a little more adjusting in the future.

Lawn look great Red!!! What's your HOC?

I ordered some of these last year and there are great!! Might order some more so I can really fine tune my irrigation system!!
