Is that ok for a patch repair or should I use Your method for a larger lawn ? I will use fleece on top as well as I’ve seen that in another of your videos.

    Look at desired application rate. Note the setting number. Put a clean tarpaulin/pvc sheet down. Apply it on the tarpaulin sheet over a set square area. Pour the seed from the sheet into a container and weigh it. Using basic maths work out how many grams per square metre on the sheet. Compare this to the desired rate ie 35g per sq metre . Then make any adjustment to the spreader number.

    Daniel, can you answer a quick question if possible. Last year you were saying how great jacks magic was. I bought 12 60l bags and paid £6 a bag from a local nursery. Reading the comments on this video, you say that this years formula for jacks magic has changed and so is no longer any good for lawns! Do you know what exactly has changed , as the field 4 is well over twice the price? Really appreciate your answer please

  • @DanielHibbertLawnExpert

    @DanielHibbertLawnExpert

    Жыл бұрын

    It is twice the price but its peat free which is what everyone wanted as i got hounded to death for using peat based so i gave you peat free so blame the eco warriors, I was saying jacks was great 20 and 2021 but 2022 i said it had gone downhill and everyone for lawns was to stay away from the “new formula” obviously the peat content has been like more or less eradicated and they have replaced it with wood, stones, twigs someone said a a half a brick was in a bag so its prob ok for borders n pots but not lawns, i got two whitlows from the new formula at same time , if your into your lawns then price doesnt matter, its a hobby and people spend fortunes on hobbies plus its only dearer due to the haulage, every online distributor of garden products you have to pay the haulage cost from turf to gravel for eg

    Love your work , in the lawn care game myself , but field no# 4 compost for 10 bags is currently £158 on their own website,then additional wetting agent needed , this isn’t a cheap job . Did you get a deal to promote this company? Using other materials for same results and almost less than half the cost .

    The customer gets the deal with 10% off , buy a pallet and the price will come down like i said to a guy yesterday the pallet price is the pallet price set by the hauliers weather you have1 bag on a pallet or 50 its the same cost as still takes up one pallet space on a wagon, if your in the game you can buy 50 at a time and use on gardens , but makes no difference to me if you buy or not thats not what its about, wetting agent optional not obligatory i just do best job i can, most of my followers watch as they want the best lawn and will invest just like golf enthusiasts do or footballers who want the best kit lawncare is a hobby like those
