When SNL was good

This is speaking directly to me. I'm taking care of my parents lawn this year and it was absolutely ravaged by grubs last summer. Midwest Indiana.

I bought some Imodacloprid from your store and will be applying tomorrow. Would’ve done it today but we got hit with some rain in South Florida. No complaints here, as you said it’s been dry. I too couldn’t remember the last time it rained, and I check the weather forecast daily. Love the content Allyn, l can’t wait for more summer videos. 👍

Love seeing you go back to original roots w videos like this!

Thanks for this video. Putting my treatment down sooner than I thought I could.

The SImon reference warmed this Canadians heart. lol Phillip was great too

Love the sprinkler stuff. Makes me feel better about procrastinating that project myself. Thanks for showing how you do it. Moving that bad boy to the edge will really help weed control. There is no need to water areas that dont need it, just encourages the weeds. I moved 4 of my bed zones to drip and its awesome, soooo many fewer weeds.

How timely Al! I have some grub patches and they are torching my yard. Never had them before. I did the pull test and there they were! Grub X going down tomorrow! I also picked up a bag of BioAdvanced, so thats going down on the back yard. (I have 16k sq ft total). Great content as usual! Thanks!

I love your truck Brah... Oh and your lawn looks great too!

thanks for showing up your weeds, makes us feel better that we don't have perfect yards. :)

I also just raked the hell out of my lawn I had too much "Thatch" from multiple (2years) mulching. Realized that from a previous video, and Scott from Scott's is telling me to feed my lawn, so I will.

Just heard about the airport cleetus said you're going to be treating it I'll watch the content 👍🇺🇸

I got lucky and got the Scott’s at $5 a bag on clearance. I bought 20 bags and helped out my family.

Great Informative video, hello from Allen , Tx .

5:05 yes please do a video on rehabbing old rock beds! Mine are crap and I’d like the LCN tips!

Liquid is typically cheaper than granules, I've used both and have great success with both forms. Guess it just depends on the person and certainly what equipment and time is available. Great vid LCN, you always do good at keeping us informed and entertained. Love the innuendos 😂

Hey man a little tip if you would have cut the flex pipe further down the line you would of been able to coupling the pipe back together and still been able to use the existing threaded Leno to attach the head.

Greetings from Nassau, Bahamas! There is a saying when Florida sneezes we catch a cold lol That holds true when it comes to climate shifts and droughts. It has now been about 28 days since we had any significant rain which forced me to re-do my entire irrigation scheduling and coverage. I have been doing the manual hand watering day after day to cover areas where the irrigation was a bit lacking but I decided this weekend to buckle down and run some new lines for more coverage. My new lines aren't as pretty but its getting the job done so my lawn can survive this drought. The positive thing is I am absolutely dominating everyone in my neighborhood and probably most of the entire island but continuing to watch your videos and staying motivated to ensure my lawn remains lush and healthy!

The GrubEX contains a much lower concentration of active ingredient. 0.08% vs 0.2% in the Acelepryn. I think the Acelepryn will pan out to be a better value.

6:29 - thats a PVC "coupler". Learned that one recently doing some hose-spigot repair thanks to yanking too hard on a hose lol. This piece is designed primarily to repair/extend a run of PVC or CPVC (outdoors here in FL) piping. Crack your pvc pipe? cut it straight, put on a coupler, and now you can keep running the pipe to wherever you are going.

My northern indiana front lawn was devastated by grubs (i think they liked my roses, but really loved my lawn). After a fall overseed and grubs, I threw down bifenthrin with 3 month control. Wish me luck!

Allen, they make couplings that screw into the flex pipe where you don't have to screw around with cement

Thanks!❤

I thought I had some dry spots in my lawn, but the whole damn time it’s them grubs smh 🤦🏾‍♂️. I have a beautiful lawn. But the spots are driving me crazy. I just ordered some Scott’s grub ex, I’ll be putting it down tomorrow morning or afternoon. Did I wait too late is the question. 🙋‍♂️

I’m doing lesco moisture manager to prevent browning.

The shrub sprays combined with the lawn irrigation is a big no no they should be separate zones anyway, as I think you know the requirements for the lawn are much different than beds

Allyn, another good and inspiring video. One question about the sprinkler in your beds. Is the logic that the roots of the trees are in the lawn already and will draw water from that area anyway? I'm just asking because I like to work on my own sprinkler system if I can and have a couple of trouble areas due to evergreen trees being installed after the sprinklers were installed. It creates a dry area in the hotter months and the grass really suffers. I'm going to try to think of another way to get around that problem. I always love your videos. Enjoying the mow in Northwest Ohio! Sorry, but how do you deal with spraying any "icdes" with your dog? I want to spray for dandelions etc but the vet said to give the sprayed area 3 days to cure. Right now, I plan on spraying the front yard where the dog doesn't have access too unless we take him out there and skip the backyard (his domain).

I’ve never had good luck with Scott’s GubX I do however really like the Broadvanced Killer for a fast relief from Grubs.

+1 - bioadvanced has performed the best in terms of big-box products for me. Their insect AND fungus control products.

If you kept it a little longer it would deal with the dryness this year. If you are in SFL we had over 80 inches of rain last year. Will be much less this year!

For cool season (Michigan), seems like 1st week of May and then again 1st week of July are the way to go, yeah?

As usual appreciate your expertise 👍🏼 Now off to purchase some grub ex in the AM.

Longtime landscaper here 🙋🏻‍♂️… My theory is that most hotspots suffer from reflective heat and reflective light from the sides of houses, buildings, structures, parked vehicles, house windows, white vinyl fences, sheet metal sheds, and blahblahblah…. The spots are already getting the heat from the sun itself, then a window or whatever just reflects and shines down on those spots like a magnifying glass on an ant. Most hotspots I find are almost always on the southwest exposure of the house where the sun lives all day long. I went with chlor-AN-TRA-nili-prole Last…. A lot of herbicides, pesticides, and ferts are pretty thick and end up clogging the screen at the end of either a hose end sprayer or even commercial backpack sprayers. Especially trying to be efficient and spraying all at once. Dilution doesn’t seem to help and can be counter productive, obviously. What do you do when you make a super thick herbicidal milkshake in your sprayers?

@thelawncarenut I recently purchased bio advanced complete insect killer. Will this work as well as Scott's Grub Ex? I'm planning to apply it at the higher use rate of 2 lbs / 1,000 sq feet

I set my Scott’s edge guard spreader to 2 with the 24hr version. I just used 3 bags and only got through a little less than half my lawn. My lawn is about 8k. There’s gotta be something wrong with this spreader or I didn’t put enough distance between spread. I try to stay close because I have the mini edge guard and it’s not very powerful of a spread.

In Canada our grub ex has Active ingredient: Bacillus thuringiensis subsp. galleriae strain SDS-502... Is this useless or worth the time and money for us to apply Allen?

My earthway spreader doesn't really perform well below 15 setting. At 15 it rips below that it's dismal. Anyone else have this issue ? Something I should check on it ?

My understanding - per watching their product videos - is the “convenience” of not “having” to water it in “right away” - but allowing you to wait until your next irrigation cycle or rainfall. It’s not harmful to people or pets if it sits on the grass prior to irrigation. But, yes, eventually, it DOES need to get watered in to become effective.

I have that same dry spot here in Palm Coast. I think when the builders laid the Sod, they gave two craps about putting the sod on good soil or even turning the soil. They just laid the sod on hard compacted dirt. So maybe the stolons never made its way into the soil. I don’t know. Tomorrow I’m going to use my aerator step tool to open some holes and soak that part of the lawn. I did have a few digging animals around. Moles maybe…. I laid some Grub ex.
