Doc finds out the backyard lawn is very low on PH and does an emergency application of lime. He talks about the impact of PH on plant health and why it's important to check, then do incremental steps.

    Entering video, thanks. I recall fishing a NOAA bout in the rain. In fact it was a hurricane in Gulf early Nov 2001. The Coast Guard has made many o memories for me. Great idea to remove barbs.

    I've wondered how to read that chart you showed. Good info. I just did a video on the pH balance of irrigation water. I'm going to get the meter you used

    How will you prevent the new clover area and the Bermuda by the dock area from mixing with each other? Also, what area is the beach house in? (wondering how close it was to the storm)

    For the little spinner treble hooks, you should try the small pliers that have the angled head...like 45degrees or something....grabbing the little metal hook is easier with that than grabbing it with fingers...they usually have them in the fishing section of stores and brand does not make a big difference

    Can you provided some more info on correcting that algae issue. I have that same issue in my zenith zoysia lawn where I see green algae sporadically throughout the surface of my soil here in Miami. Current ph 7.1

    I bought the same tester a few months ago and found my soil to be around 5.5. I put lime down and plan to do another application soon. I tested our house water and it’s also acidic. Hard to keep the soil neutral when our water is acidic!

    Basic lime is pretty much the same without a great amount of performance difference. It has been tested in the past.

    maybe you should use barbless hooks, would be easier to de-hook them if you cant find a stick.
