I have seen where a couple of people use it every spring and fall, and another lawn guy who uses it every month or so. Any suggestions on using it two to four times a year? I am purchasing the newer electric model this weekend and plan to use it on my zoysia lawn as soon as I get it. I have not dethatched my lawn in years because I always bag my grass, but I am starting to see where I still have thatch building up.

How about I offer facts vs recommendations? You ok with this? First, thatch is NOT dead grass clippings. If grass clippings are above 1/4” that is not “mulch” but rather just dead grass, that will hot be easy for your soil microbes to break down (if you can’t get the clippings smaller then 1/4” bagging is best, even tho your taking your nutrients to the trash). You hinted to this, and I wanted to help others who might think real mulch will make thatch, it simply doesn’t. Improper sided grass clippings will, but that’s not mulching. Now over to your question. How often? So, is a thatch layer bad? NO, it’s actually super healthy for grass, soil and soil microbes. Helps retain moisture, give your grass a nutrient layer and microbes a home to feed to feed your grass. Why so people remove thatch? One, they misunderstand what it is and what it does. Two, it’s above 1/2” and actually choking out your soil and grass, killing the grass. Couple more reasons but way more advanced lol. Times to dethatch? Spring or fall for cool season grasses, early summer for warm season grasses which as zoysia. What happens if you dethatch outside these times? A thatch rake or machine is very aggressive on your lawn, and stresses it out. Can you do it on lower settings, yes but your pulling less thatch as it’s higher up vs closer to the soil, where thatch resides. Can you do it any time, once again, yes, but you will stress the grass and if it’s slowed down due to heat or cold ( for warm season grasses), it will have a harder time recovering. Extra water and nutrients assist it rebound. Who minimizes their thatch layer or doesn’t want organic debris in their lawns? Golf course greens, this is why they sand or too dress their greens frequently during the year. They don’t want any thatch, as effect the balls reaction/roll/ or play. They compensate by weekly feedings, frequent mowings and nutrients to keep it fed and happy. Do you ever have to dethatch? Some lawns aren’t stressed and can break down grass blades that naturally die by them selfs, thus never getting above 1/2” of thatch. They can get away with never dethatching. If you have environmental stresses on your lawn like high foot traffic; excessive heat/cold, watering issues, over watering, over fertilization, etc. it could build above 1/2” and needs to be removed. So, why do I see so many recommendations on removal? Now we are back to your question; how often should you do it? Who do you want to be? Does it need it? Can you address the cause of the thatch layer, fixing that, thus making you not have to dethatch frequently? I’ll help you make a decision, by all means, but I think after giving you a little knowledge, it might help you as well! Let me know!

15" model heading my way soon, and looking forward to using it. Thanks for the video.

I'm not sure that the life of the battery is much of an issue. Because like you said, the bag doesn't hold a lot of thatch - which means that you're going to end up having to mow the thatched grass up anyway. So you might as well thatch until the battery runs out, put the batteries on the charger while you mow up the thatch up with the lawn mower and by the time you're finished, the batteries should have enough of a charge to thatch the remainder of the lawn (depending on the size of the lawn of course). So yeah....unless by some miracle Ego comes out with a dethatcher between now and the time Sun Joe has that battery-powered one back in stock, I could see myself choosing the Sun Joe battery powered one over the other 2. Thanks for taking the time to show us what's what!

Absolutely a fabulous video. I have never seen anything like this doing a comparison of different models of SunJoe dethatching machines and have never seen anything so thorough for comparison testing for anything for that matter! I never buy mechanical products without reading reviews and looking at video presentations if available. I have been an avid flower and shrub gardener for over 60 years and also fuss with lawn perfection, leaving the usual weekly maintenance up to my landscapers. I have gotten my lawn to about 99% tall fescue ( which is beautiful) in the front of my house and KBG/ Perennial Rye in the back. The front lawn gets a lot of thatch which I clear with the Greenskeeper dethatching rake, but is getting very labor intensive. From what I have read about thatch, I think I've been giving it more water than it needs. The KBG lawn is no problem. I now probe areas of my lawns with a moisture gauge and there are differences. So I have reprogrammed my smart irrigation panel . Keep up the great work and thank you so much!

@TheGreenerLawn

Жыл бұрын

When you over seed use a wear tolerant grass, I’d get a soil test and see what nutrients your lawn needs, and feed this… (potassium is awesome to assist with this). Can you rotate sides of use to give grass a break (I understand if this is no). These are a start, but if you need help feel free to reach out on dm on instagram @thegreenerlawn or email JeremyofTheGreenerLawn@gmail.com

As an owner, my advice is to buy an extra belt with your order. I got 3 seasons out of mine before the belt broke. For the price i paid, i felt like i got 2 bonus years out of the thing.

Great comparison!! I'm looking at getting the 15 inch. I live in northern Minnesota and dethatch with an Arnold power rake on my mower every spring. I know that isn't as effective, but this fall should I dethatch or scarify or both?

@TheGreenerLawn

2 жыл бұрын

Two different purposes here: Scarifier: gras has gotten so thick and you want to remove small rows at the root level to allow heathy regrowth of the grass, so it doesn’t choke it’s self out. Another good use is when someone over seeds as it breaks up the soil for better seed to soil contact. Dethatcher: build up of thatch above 1/2” that is comthing the soil not allowing the soil to breathe, nor the crowns of the grass plant. If you have both issues both are fine, but most people fall into th Dethatching at first, then hit the scarifying.

They finally have the battery one in stock. I just bought it and will give it a go in spring. I have this one area that kept growing moss and would take over the grass. I have pruned the tree there to try and open up some sunlight. I plan to use the scarifier there along with some top soil and will try a dense shade grass seed there. I'm hoping it works. I have another set of 24v batteries I can use.

So…. If I’m being completely honest, without any bias, recommended setting for recommended settings, it gets mopped up (the other two pull more, with out going against manufacturers recommendations, easily). No punches pulled here, it is what it is. Not discrediting you at all, especially the sunjoe vs the green works, OOOOOF NO CONTEST. 💯 agree with you here! I have that Dethatcher as well, and it’s not in the ballpark at all. But difference is minor, no, sorry, it isn’t. AJ805E pulled more on the 0 setting (files.snowjoe.com/product-manuals/AJ805E%20MANUAL-combined.pdf page 9) on one pass, and had a bigger swath, completing the task quicker. The battery can be set on -10 with the Dethatcher setting (files.snowjoe.com/product-manuals/24V-X2-DTS15_MANUAL_M_09032020_FINAL.pdf page 12) so it at recommended allowable settings would mop the floor with the other two on pull (with obvious other shortcomings). Minor differences, not if your using it on recommended settings. And the saving is $20 bucks or $90. $160= 801E snowjoe.com/products/sun-joe-13-inch-12-amp-electric-scarifier-lawn-dethatcher-w-collection-bag/ $180- 805E snowjoe.com/products/sun-joe-aj805e-electric-lawn-dethatcher-w-collection-bag-15-inch-13-amp-scarifier $250- Battery snowjoe.com/products/sun-joe-24v-x2-dts-scarifier-and-dethatcher-w-2-24v-batteries-and-dual-port-charger-5-depth-positions-14-inch-brushless-motor BUT with this all said, if you can find one for $120 (def not worth it at $150, only $20 cheaper IMO), and your willing to make multi passes on 0 OR go out side of recommended settings (as I do, and it’s in a previous video), the yea, this one isn’t bad at all, and will def hang with the others. Will this one work? YES, as you noted and I 100 agree.

Thank you Jeremy for the review! After many months being on back order, I'll be receiving my AJ805E today. My concerns have to do with the early fall timing as we go into winter...irrigation water has already been shut off here in Idaho for 1 week, so I'll have to rely on Mother Nature for moisture. Do you have an opinion on whether I should wait for rain in the forecast for my initial dethatch or just go ahead anyway when temps are closer to 70 since the lawn is going into winter dormancy anyway?? Also...I'm thinking of scarfiring now (fall) instead of waiting for spring where the ground might still be frozen (too hard) in March/April to use the scarfire effectively (mostly for aeration). Any feedback you might have on this would be highly appreciated! Thanks again!

@TheGreenerLawn

2 жыл бұрын

Scarifying will not aerate. It’s main purpose is to thin grass plants out for regrowth. A bad areation is 2”, a good one is 4” tines…. So the 1/4” of earth scrape isn’t going to accomplish what your looking for. It also isn’t designed to pull up thatch well, that could allow better water penetration, not caught in the thatch layer… With all this said…. Water is what heals the lawn after a dethatch. You will want water to recover it before winter, if it goes to bed stressed, you could get winter die off. What’s your fertilizer plans? This could help as well.

I’m really liking my battery reel mower from Sun Joe. It is doing a nice job at 1”. Celebration Bermuda 🤘🏼

Their battery stuff is good stuff! Glad it can maintain a good 1” lawn.... but can good and Bermuda be used in the same sentence?

While they do grab and pull them selfs, they are not inherently self propelled. It is very light as well tho.

Does the 15" one have a more powerful motor? Seems like it would for more money and 2" wider

I didn’t actually notice any power loss in any parts, it was able to tackle deep down thatch with ease. But directly do unknown if it’s a bigger motor, no I don’t. I’d assume they put something larger in there to compensate for weight and mass movement differences as in notice no power loss.

@The Greener Lawn I was just looking at these machines online and the original unit 12" has a 12amp motor and the 15" has a 13amp motor. I just purchased a brand new 15" unit online for $124.00 and free shipping. I couldn't believe I found one with that good of price. Home Depot is $149.00. Thanks for the video

@The Greener Lawn I sure will! I would've liked the battery operated detahcher but when the batteries go dead they are as much as the whole unit.

Lightweight is good and what did I use it for it’s a lawnmower kzread.infoUgkxTPN04aT-Qdjr_KS3ql7ng8wnU3wwsCqk also recommend Yes it is lightweight so hence not as robust as our old one. But if you take care it does the job really well.
