  1. This video is exactly what I’ve been looking for: shows the whole process rather than skipping the details.

    Where do I get that brown plastic strip btw? I need that rather than paving stone

  2. Great tip on the lighter to soften the pipe. I just used it! Thanks. Got my benda board but it's going to be hard as there are a lot of rocks in the soil here. I like how you bury it about 1/2" deeper for mowing purposes too. I think I'm going to angle from the flower bed next to the benda board so the mulch will be level with it Already moved the sprinkler heads. Great videos. Watched both you had with the benda board. Just wish my soil would cut and dig as easily as yours though.

  3. Man you got skills. Are you a professional landscaper or do you just work on your home as a DYIer?

  4. This is great. Digging in my yard it's like digging through cement. Clay, rocks, roots, etc. Takes hours just to remove an inch of soil from a small area.

  5. So nice and neat you cut the lawn like slices of cheese and soil very dark and soft My lawn are big and deep roots the soil hard as rock

  6. Enjoyed your video. Except when you placed the sprinkler head inside the grass area. I did a similar layout and broke two sprinkler heads with my rider mower. I always disliked driving directly over the heads but when you place the heads against the boarder, you have no choice. So I moved the heads to the opposite side of the boarder or edger (2" into the mulch area). It doesn't really change nothing as long as you make a slight sprinkler head adjustment. It's just one less thing to worry about. If you have a riding mower. Again enjoyed you video. Thanks.

  7. Where in the world do you live to have such dark soil? We have red clay here in North Carolina. You did a great job!

  8. Had to revisit this video. Glad to see you used flexible pipe when relocating sprinklers. This has reassured me while making some changes to my sprinkler sys. Nice luxury to have over stiff PVC routing. 

    The OCD lawn perfection is off the charts!

  9. You are so lucky have soft soil it perfect for lawn and easy to dig and manipulate. We have to deal with Indiana clay which is just like granite.

  10. Grown up water 😂💦 party and that grass and soil😍

  11. How does the sprinkler work then?? How is it plumbed into the main?? Or from the tap???

  12. I’m searching for Bend A Board that you mentioned in someone else’s comment. Could you add the link to the edging product you use in the description of your video?

  13. I kno nothing about sprinklers or plumbing… But why not use PVC? PVC is all I ever seen sprinklers be done with minus soaker hose.

  14. Can't believe how easy it was removing the sod and the quality of your soil. It was be way more difficult for me with the grass and soil I have. Enjoyable video but I am jealous of your great soil and ease of removing grass.

  15. I only wish my grass was this easy to remove. My bahia grass down in Florida grows roots 6 inches down 😂 tough to remove
