What’s nice about peat moss is it will tell ya when it needs water as the color changes from dry to wet pretty nicely!!

Bro, you’re providing true value and great information to folks. Keep up the great work.

Thank you. I’ve been looking for a video to explain the process in detail and you did it!!

Thank you for making and posting this informative and useful video. It’s going to inform my reseeding of patchy lawn areas in our early Spring after I top-dress around an apartment building in Parramatta, Australia. In terms of the lawn care part of my gardening effort, I’ve spent the last 5 years going from zero lawn when I moved in to achieving mixed results through some pretty extreme weather (the 2019/20 Black Summer heatwave and huge 2022 La Nīna rain event) and constant improvement of poor clay soil contaminated with 1980s vintage builder’s back-filled rubble. There’s been a looooot of soil improvement to get where I am today. Seeding and tending of the lawn has been the easier part of my overall effort. I agree with you on the importance of soil improvement. That’s the foundation of successful gardening full stop. Using coir peat when re-seeding is a very helpful tip that made me wonder: “why hadn’t I thought of that?!” I’ve bought two compressed coir peat bricks to save me money and extra trips to and from Bunnings. I have typically used it to beef-up potting mix and add organic matter to garden beds. I just reconstitute it with water in a wheelbarrow. As we’re anticipating a long, hot and dry Summer this year I have to get lively now if my lawns are to grow in enough to handle consecutive days of 38°C temps without browning off completely. An extra smattering of coir peat in early Summer along with soil-wetting agent will no doubt improve the lawn’s chances of recovering from extreme heat as Autumn rolls around.

I have a few patches in my yard that I had to fill from the neighbors letting their dogs pee on my grass. I dethatched with a rake to pull up the dead grass and exposed the soil. I added the seed but I mixed a bag of black cow manure with the peat moss and new growth filled in within about 8 days. I appreciate your video and have been sharing this info with my neighbors.

One thing I learned the hard way , is that, if you have grass with runners like couch, buffalo etc. The lawn self spreads, you don't need grass seeds. All you need is some top soil and some nitrogen/fertilizer along with regular watering. Usually in 4-8 weeks , bare patches self heal.

Great results thank you for taking the time to make the video, very helpful

cool video brian! wish i had this when i was a noob!

Very great informative and helpful video about LANDSCAPING. Thanks for sharing. Keep up the good work.

Thank you for sharing all this great information! It is much appreciated!

I put down sta green 18-24-6 on my poor front yard along with some seed in some bare spots today rain in forecast i sure hope it helps make my yard fuller

I tried Pre-germinating some Kentucky Bluegrass and spreading it with Milorganite, the scott's spreader you have in the video ended up getting a little gummed up but I think that was mostly my bad for not letting the seed dry enough before attempting to mix the two together, but so far things look great. I'm seeing germination less than a week after spreading it. The big downside? Milorganite smells so awful I was nauseated for hours.

Just did the same. I mowed short, dethatched twice, I think I even used the same peat moss. Warning to those throwing down dry peat moss...stand with the wind to your back unless you want to wear a thin layer of brown and smell like a barn. The great thing about peat moss is it goes lighter brown as it dries letting you know to add water. The established grass is starting to visibly grow faster and it's day three, so the race is on. Mowing short and dethatching has bought me a few days though because it will take a smidge longer before the established grass crowds out the seedlings. I use a leafblower to try to keep the leaves off the lawn as any debris can stunt the growth. Keep your lawn free of sticks, stones and debris people!

Great video… got great results without spreading Pete Moss lawn looks great and I was able to skip that messy step

Wow thats an awesome looking lawn.

Thank you! Great tutorial!

Oh man that looks good. My front lawn is doing good, but my back yard has been struggling to thicken up.

The one change I'd make: Use a starter fertilizer instead of nitrogen only, and apply it a couple days after seeding. The starter fertilizer pushes root growth instead of top growth, and the few day delay will result in giving the new seedlings a few days more of growth before needing to cut.

Very detailed video! Thank you for sharing!
