Can Grass Survive 8+ inches of Sand Leveling? - Fixing a Lawn Low Spot

sand 😂😂😂😂

What grass do you have?

How well does tall fescue handle a heavy sand coating

8 plus inches, not in my yard. I did heavy leveling like you did. All the sand did was snuff out (kill) the grass below. And sand has ZERO nutrients to it. Reason people and golf courses use it IN MY AREA, is that it is CHEAPER than quality rich mix top soil with compost. Never again use sand.

I like the rap music, it makes lawncare seem cool

so grass will grow in sand? I am in South Carolina with a clay field that grows weeds. I cut them however due to ditches and some runoff its ruff riding on my zero turn. was thinking have to bring some dirt it (top soil) to help when I grow grass and level it but maybe cheaper to just get some sand? no trees out in the sun so was thinking tossing some bahia grass seed out this spring. I been successful in the back yard with rye in the fall.

What brand is that safety green shirt you are wearing? I print, wondering for a customer.

Also why not use top soil?
I'm new lol

What kind of sand is used? And how much do I out down at once?

Where are you getting your sand in NWA?

Very nice! I am in NE Arkansas and installed 1600 yards of Tahoma 31 last September but it’s pretty unlevel. When would be the best time to start a sand leveling project? Is it too late this year?

Thank you for the information!

Good ankle flexibility. Full squat.

Wish I could rent a sand spreader like that 😊

What would I search for a service that would make my lawn like this

What is the cost and how much sand?

looks amazing, man i could really use one of those sanders. Do you know who rents them?

Will you try the same if there is not irrigation? Or how will you do it if you didn’t have irrigation?

Oh come on! At this point I think you only put down sand out of spit! Put down some organic matter for us who wanna see the process for something other than sand!

Would that much sand interfere with fertilizer applications?

I got to spread some sand in some low spots in my bermuda grass recently. My neighbor had some sand left over from spreading it on low spots in his yard and he asked me if I wanted it 😂. He was up unloading the sand on a tarp in the back of his truck in 10 minutes.
I have good neighbors

Should I be afraid if I have KBG? Probably.

Great video.. great advice on the direction of flow.

Too bad you can't do this with bluegrass

So when you add several inches or even 8inches and the grass grows up through it, does the crown of the plant regrow up towards the sky or does it stay inches below and then you just have 8" long grass blades that only stick out of the sand by 1/2"?

🎉 👍

I could imagine his wife checking the bank account. How have you spent $10,000 on sand last month?

Come to Middle Tennessee, lets do mine lol
