Need to do a bit with Cleetus and JH. Dress up as cops, go take one of the vics, go arrest him.

Hey Alan, how do you like those kudjo waterproof boots? Are they comfortable all day? Holding up well?
Thanks for putting so much pride and work into making the place look like a million bucks. It really adds to the quality of the whole event
Also love the “that’s 6 inches, that’s at least what I tell her “ 😂

I want to give the logo guys a special thanks great job guys 👍🇺🇸
The behind the scenes for the logo painting was really cool. I assumed that it was all stenciled but I didn't expect the stencil to be just the outlines. Watching the freehand filling of the colors was super satisfying.

I agree! I never knew how they did it so when I got the opportunity to work with these guys I was pretty stoked.
I was amazed to see the majority of the logo work wasn't actually stencilling, but hand spray painted wow!
When someone has passion for what they do, anything can be made interesting and fun to watch...🤩 Thanks for make lawn care and watch grass grow.., exciting...🎉✨💖👍
That north bridge Bermuda is absolutely amazing when I did the track walk vip its so soft I've never felt grass that soft I was telling my daughter and niece to feel this grass if I ever get the money I will definitely want that grass it didn't feel like grass it felt like a soft blanket
I got to see the grass at the Freedom 500 and it was awesome! Keep up the great work!
Great video. Love the Freedom Factory content!
Alan you are rightfully proud of this beautiful result. Well done!❤
You guys did an amazing job! The grass at the event looked so good. The nitrogen applications really paid off. Such a huge difference!!
Amazing work..sure can tell you love what you do!! Pleasure watching what you have accomplished there
You will make it look good always a great show thanks again brother
Love the content bud! When you got involved in the freedom factory I started following and have enjoyed your videos and perspective! Keep up the great work!

highly underrated channel, worked on a golf course for 6 years and have always had soft spot for grass LOL, keeping working with cleetus and your channel will TAKE OFF! love the videos
Looks good. Great job!
Very nice work, it's really great to see the knowledge and experience you have in your industry. In can tell you have great passion in what you do.
I love the music choices for the montages
Was waiting for this update.
Loving the content all the way here at the Northern end of the Gold Coast Australia.
I love mowing.. it's therapeutic for me when I did Lawn care my favorite piece of equipment was a 52 in pistol grip Exmark walk behind. The grass looked so good I always made sure I had sharp blades. The company had us useing wright mowers but I preferred the walk behind

I own a campground in WV I take care of 50 acres of grass and I use a 62 inch snapper walk behind I've had since 2012. I also have a club cadet ride on but it can't get out of its own way on the hills. Walk behinds cut the backs so well and leaves a great cut.
Dude I love this. Thanks for sharing God Bless....
Cleetus needs to install rumble curbs around the track.
Great video I love them all!

thank you! ironically, JH did my leveling kit and wheels and tires at his shop.
As a 7 or 10 years old my dad had a reel mower (NOT powered at ALL) form when we moved from CA. We moved TO Ohio - blades were NEVER sharpened, fully manual, living in an are with a creek that did flood over the years and we could find fossils of coral = GREAT dark soil, and I was less than 100 lbs. Yea - it was horrific - maybe cut a help inch at a time - on a half acre lot. Dad then got a WELL used mower that you had to wing the spring up first - still hard to go as a 7-10 year old, set the choke, and flip the switch that let the spring spin the engine.... I STILL don't miss those days.
Them darn kids. lol at least they had fun and you made it look good in the process.
Wow I’m from there Highland Indiana I’m in Florida now!!!!!
Love following you
YOUR DONE JH! lol
I'm actually surprises your using walk behinds. Ride on would be ideal here! I know this is presentation of the products but ride on for the win!

Yep, that one clip is downtown Schererville.
Are you going to add an injection system to the irrigation to spoon feed the turf to keep up with all the activity? Looking forward to the robot mower installation on such a large active area. Hoping that a irrigreen setup is in the Freedom factory future. It would be a great showcase for their system and could reduce the water usage considerably.
Bust out the time master!
It took me a little while to get use to the Toro TimeMaster.
Reel mowers are actually old school. The stripes are tips, or the back of the blade. Basically it's rolled towards you or away.
Thanks for doing this for everyone 👍🇺🇸
Those Kugo Surge shoes look great. Especially for the early morning "throw er down" trips or a little dewy cut. Wet shoes suck!
Allan, I have a Honda rotary gas mower, it's still growing strong and provides a good cut, but I'm more and more thinking of replacing it with one of the battery operated rotary mowers. Would I ever go back to gas after using battery? Thoughts?
Is it the mower or do sharp blades make a difference? If I was to sharpen the blades of some old Murray mower from the 90’s would it cut as well as that eco battery mower? What does mower deck design have to do with it?
Great job on the grass. One major failure, WE HEARD A PUPPY AND DIDN'T GET TO SEE IT!

Nice Wobbly Dobbs.
Paint that drain green once the grass comes in and going strong.
With the size of the inner freedom factory and its surrounding area im surprised they don't use a tractor drawn rotary unit. Obviously finish wouldn't be reel quality. But some really good tractor stuff now and time it would take would be so little
you need a golf course fw mower like conner ward, lot of turf there, looking good though
Talking about change, I recently read a short story called “who moved my cheese” and it’s a silly story that puts the perspectives of different reactions to change in a goofy way that is easier to digest and talk about. If anyone is struggling with something in life, may it be a relationship, work, or something else, I recommend reading that story. For me it made me accept that change occurred and that I need to move on.

good stuff Nolan. Thank you for sharing that 👍
Yeah.. they make heads for riding or tow behind mowers that make stripes and each pass you just flip a switch for it to cut different.
Your trees are Bradford Pears. They're considered an invasive species of tree now. For people that can't or don't know how to access the average soil temperature, Forsythia blooms at the same time as crabgrass seeds begin to germinate.
Get with Terraplas North America and see about Cleet getting one of their turf protection systems. Purpose built to protect grass during events like that where a stage is on grass.
would it help to go over the striped section with a smaller steam roller to get rid of the "bumps" and even it all out?? I know it was a "rush" before race day, but long term would this be a good idea??
Allyn, I"m in cool season territory. I installed sod patches last year. They rooted, came in great, blended in with my lawn, etc. But some of the sod patches don't look too good anymore. Full of yellow and brown, matted blades. Any idea of what's happening?
I am interested in a sand leveling video. And maybe paint the drains green to blend them in.
hey just found your channel great stuff. I had a question if you can help me. I have the lawnboy 10739 model and can't find a side grass chute anywhere. I think the new model number of this is 17739. Not sure if you know anywhere i can get a side discharge grass chute for this awd lawnboy but i could sure use it. Ive looked on all the parts sites emailed can't find a match anywhere. Thanks for all your videos
I have a question regarding (here in Florida) how do you deal with oak saplings that grew up from the roots? Do you tarp the area or what is the best way to prevent them? Mind you the main oak tree itself shades quite heavily below it. Live in Minneola Florida
@Thelawncarenut
2 ай бұрын
that's a tough one really. If it were me what I would do is just not try and grow grass under the oak and turn it into a large planting bed and put shade loving plants in there and let the lawn grow everywhere else
I've had a reel mower for more than 3 years and haven't used a rotary mower since despite having a walk behind and a zero turn.
Placed my fertilizer and pre-emergents order last week got my e-mail from Yardmastery it’s on the way and will get it and will be throwing down this weekend.
Looks like the Freedom Factory got a little too free with those stripes! 🌱🚜

16:34 guarantee that was the dually that brought the stage line trailer in loaded. Next time make sure they throw down a “plywood highway.” Normal procedure in the event world. Could have been where they had the generator parked also. Plywood highway, same thing.
What kind of grass would you recommend for a lawn that’s really wet and soft. We built are house in a hay field 🚗💨🦅🇺🇸
what height are you mowing Freedoms lawn? Did I miss that? I know you talked about the height adjustment.
Poor CitraZoy is taking forever to come back. When I laid some at my job it took a good 2 weeks to root. The stuff they laid at the freedom factory must have been shocked hard by the cold before they cut it and the cut itself, it'll come back tho.
ol cleet and squirrel gotta stop by and repo his helicopter till he pays that fine!
We call Reel mowers Cylinder mowers here in Aus

Looks like those sprinklers need adjusting. A lot of water waste there. One of my pet peeves. RGS on the zoysia next?
I just put down bermuda seed after killing my lawn off from the mixture of grasses and weeds that it was, wish I could get a reel mower but they are just to expensive for me to afford.
Do you have irrigation there?
Try it on citra blue at 2inches. That would be amazing
You need to go ahead and let it make you mad! They're hooligans and you need to correct these young thugs tearin up your work... git their asses grassman!! That'd make good story lines!!! 😂😂😂 thanks for makin it beautiful!!! I liked the fine!
With that much grass, you need a greens rider. Like a toro 2100d or jd 2653a/b.
I’m sure Cleet will have a triplex for you in no time
I want to get some of your Prodiamine. I have some seed for bare spots I want to put down. I pre soak my seed so it germinates in the pail versus the ground. If its germinated already can i put that down with the Prodiamine? Does it stunt it?
@Thelawncarenut

prodiamine would still stunt it. So just try and avoid the areas you are going to seed if you can. Maybe apply with a hand crank spreader that you can control a little better.

we rolled it when it was installed but that was it. From here we need to get rid of the bumps by spreading sand.
JH, yer dun!
Laid on both of the grasses I tried to lay where the logo was at and the security guarding the helicopter kept yelling at us to get off the grass
What if I invented a product similar in form factor to a manual rotary mower that grabs and pulls nutsesge in a single pass?
Have you used sedgehammer?
