    Great video … I watched it as I wanted to see how different folks asses the results of Humic acid use. Your lawn is beautiful even with ,as you say, heavy use. You mentioned you had dogs and that brings me to the reason why I started using Humic acid. Where I live there are lots of dogs around and short of being that guy waving his fists at dog owners I decided to employ 2 strategies. Signs “don’t poop or pee” and this product with Kelp. The fact that you have dogs doesn’t show in your beautiful lawn and I believe the Humic acid is the key. Dog urine has salt, is acidic, and of course the nitrogen. Humic acid neutralizes the salt as I understand it so you are not getting the brown spots (dead grass from salt) . Thank you for the Demonstration .

And you answered a question that I asked in another YT video - you did indeed do a soil analysis. Awesome stuff, man!

Your lawn looks amazing. I live in Atlanta and soil here is like the hard compacted clay that your screwdriver would barely penetrate. I am hoping to get same results you got. I would love to have my soil that loosely compacted. I have bermuda in front yard and zoysia in the back yard. Thanks for the video.

    My new house came with sod. I just learned that I have soil like yours underneath the sod., My sod came with hard black soil about 1.5 inches thick...as tough as a bad steak! I am going to start a regular program of some liquid soil loosener, Andersons Humic DG, Milorganite, and maybe liquid compost. I figure once I get that black soil sod layer loosened up, it'll thrive like yours looking for that moist sandy soil.

    I have been following you now for a few weeks and I have no need to follow any others, you are the best by far! I overseeded with Kentucky 31 tall fescue 2 months ago and already applied some fertilizer one time 3 weeks ago along with humic acid for the root system. I just now applied E-corganite from Menards a clone to Milorganite, I tell you it looks identical pellet size, color and all. Also made in WI. Should I also apply another a round of humic acid (watered in type)? My lawn was not great before the overseeding and I only used Scotts turf builder once in the spring, so really never been taken care of. Thanks.
