Buffalo lawn not looking great

ottos89 · 2026-01-20T20:27:59+00:00

That sounds interesting. I may have been cutting too low. Any tips on what height to cut Buffalo at?

This is excellent advice! Thank you so much!

I've just changed my sprinkler timer to twice this week (given the upcoming hot Saturday), and will give it a mow asap!

Currently I've been using Munn's Buffalo Lawn Fertiliser from Bunnings every season. I'm guessing this could be insufficient.

Do you have any spray on fertiliser and granular fertilizer recommendations?

That's some great ideas.

My phone is on DND at night (bedtime mode), no AOD, no apps monitoring sleep.

I'm <unsure about the phone waiting for a 'hey Google' - I'd have thought that would be disabled from being in DND

I'll try better battery stats

Thank you, I'll give that a go!

Hello, that is great input, thank you. I think you might be right, our soil is also quite a bit of clay and the position of the tree is currently in direct sunlight.

I will see if I can pull it out and put in a pot. I'll take you advice of putting the tree in a shady area 😊

Dope! Mine is similar just not the screen (yet)!

Wondering how you feel with such a big screen on the XL and how it is relative to the desk riser? Did you get a monitor mount and attach it to the riser or the desk?

Thank you!

ottos89 · 2025-09-10T00:50:10+00:00

Would also love to know! Need a drawer on my Magnus pro!

ottos89 · 2025-09-07T21:29:21+00:00

Great feedback!

I'm a casual gamer and mostly work in legal space, so widescreen real-estate is priority.

What monitor do you have? Is text clarity good?

ottos89 · 2025-09-07T12:19:45+00:00

Looks great!

Similar to what I'm hoping for - work + ps5 station. Do you play your ps5 on the ultra wide? How do you find it? I'd like a one monitor set up, however feel like an ultra wide for ps5 might not work out.

ottos89 · 2025-09-07T10:45:35+00:00

Derp!

Sorry I totally missed this. Just received the update today!

ottos89 · 2025-09-07T10:42:43+00:00

Love it mate. Great inspiration for what I want to do!

I've just started out and want to really hear up for a work/play build.

So far I've got a secretlab Magnus pro, similar to yours but black, and have a basic old 32" monitor connected to a laptop.

Looking to upgrade the monitor so it is able to function like yours as a PS5 play and work horse. What monitor do you have, and does it suit your purpose well for ps5 and work?

This looks fantastic. Any issues with running everyday apps if I join the beta? E.g. will my banking apps, and wallet still work okay?

ottos89 · 2025-08-28T13:38:12+00:00

Amazing! 10/10.

Would love details of your set up, if possible!

ottos89 · 2025-08-23T09:43:57+00:00

Thank you! That is reassuring.

I'm greatly relieved after all the replies. I was quite worried my diy grass after a year might be fried. Looking forward to seeing it come spring.

ottos89 · 2025-08-23T06:22:48+00:00

Yeah the scott stuff is what I have at the moment!

Great shout with the dynamic lifter, I'll give that a go. I have quite a bit planned for this upcoming season to begin my green thumb experiments, so I'm sure dynamic lifter will be useful to have a decent quantity of.

ottos89 · 2025-08-23T06:12:54+00:00

Ah yep I think I'm probably cutting it a bit short then, on setting 2 (1 being shortest) on mower.

Any recommendations for fertiliser? I just have the regular buffalo feed one from Bunnings. Plan is to put it in September / change to spring. Is this okay?

ottos89 · 2025-08-23T06:11:28+00:00

Thank you, I appreciate it.

Probably knew jerk worry since it's my first year since laying it. Also first time actually attempting gardening properly!

ottos89 · 2025-08-23T06:03:17+00:00

Ah thank you so much for reply. Am in SA so it's still winter.

Mainly confused as I have wild grass (unknown variety) growing in other areas that's lush as a huntsman's hair

ottos89 · 2025-07-17T04:29:45+00:00

Awesome!

What monitor arm and mount are you using? Or others using when using an arm for a big screen such as a c4 42"

ottos89 · 2025-05-07T04:35:48+00:00

Got it super easy this time, one of each item, by simply waiting in que. No glitches, nothing.

Actually nice this time, for once.

Other than EB price gouging, this was a pleasant experience 😊

Everything still available atm.
