- This is a very different podcast for many reasons, first of which, my good friend John Perry from Greene Country Fertilizer and Lawncology joins me to talk about the Netflix documentary, "Kiss The Ground."
When I saw this documentary, it actually made me more proud of what we do in our lawns everyday.

Thank you my friend. Great conversation and I hope people take a minute to watch the documentary and maybe come away with some new thought processes for their own lawns. Great to see you as always!!!
Great Video! I work for Strip-Till, No-Till and Cover Crop Strategies Magazine and we are talking about a lot of what you guys discussed. Great stuff thanks for sharing!
When you introduced John you left out LEGEND. John is a LEGEND and when he speaks we all listen. Blessings to you both
Best lawn care vid/show this yr so far. No one is trying to sell poop in a bag or a new lawn toy. Very informative and entertaining at the same time.
Just do it!👏👏👍..thanks Al and JP☮️
I love this Al. Thanks for sharing. We need to push the partisan polarization aside and recognize that we need to be better stewards of God’s creation.
Absolutely one of your Best Pod Casts Allyn! Feat -JP. We can all do better to make our little round ball more efficient in removing pollutants! Love this topic and that documentary was great as long as you bring it down to you own micro climate "Your Lawn" Great Stuff! Peace and God's Love! Chad Upstate NY
So glad you guys discussed this documentary because climate change ain’t polar! And what fantastic ways to educate people on proper property-care 🙌🏽
Great content, being from Iowa I've been watching Ray and Gabe for a few years now. I think I've talked my neighbors into letting me seed a 9 way mix of cool & warm season plants and just letting it grow.
Starting my second lawn reno within a year during my 'free time' this Fall. The commentary about exposed soil is motivating. I've been missing the podcast, glad to hear you guys back on air! We're due for rain and cooler temps this week. Anxious to see how my cool-season lawn will respond. Found a nice 2012 Toro Recycler for Dad's Day and ready to see how she cuts..
Great talk gentlemen! Thanks for the overview of the doc, and I learned quite a bit. John needs to get some messaging out to the Utah community about our drought (heck, the whole SW is in a BAD drought) and the many HATERS of those of us who want to keep our LAWNS ALIVE!! Help John!!
Al, just had a chance to sit back and genuinely enjoy the documentary. I will probably watch it again to see what I missed this time. Amazing things that we can do to not only improve soil fertility but to increase the look of our landscapes. Hopefully the feds can sort it out on the hill! Great recommendation!! Thank you for the podcasts and the continued content, always learning even when topics are covered repeatedly (repetition is good for the developing brain 😉) Thanks again, looking forward to the next one!
Was a great conversation. Us lawn nuts can understand what the documentary(was great btw) and importance of proper lawn care is all about.
I've been watching a lot of farming channels this year and they are doing cover crops and are running no tillage programs and another one doesn't do cover crops but doesn't till the ground I'm finding it very interesting of why they are doing it and now I understand the science behind it so cool
Will watch the documentary for sure now! Great talk guys!
Great information from my two favorite lawn/fertilizer gurus…thanks gents!
Really interesting. Thanks for sharing the perspective.
Al and JP, excellent video and I really enjoyed getting the soil master JP on his thoughts. Honestly I watched this a long time ago and the first thing I thought about was”this is what John is talking about”. I’ve incorporated a soil first approach in my yard over the last few years and the results are fantastic. I think this discussion is all so needed since I live in UT and it seems the narrative is anti grass due to the water shortage we’re having. We need these discussions even more!
Great show. Will definitely have to watch the documentary. Listening to another podcast that is talking about cover crops in farming very interesting. Farmers I believe are more like us they want the biggest return on investment of inputs. And they also want to leave the dirt better for the next generation.
Great show keep up the awesome work thanks.
Great show.
Great freakin interview!
Good stuff gents!
Long time! Awesome!
While I don’t really get into the preachy documentaries I really get into the science of things. Tumble down the rabbit hole one might say. Good job on bringing this to the lawn community. Shows that we all can make a difference not matter how small.
Watched Kiss the ground a few weeks ago - and was thinking the same! Healthy soil is key to success
fun interview. always like learning about improving soil health and who better to talk about it than these two
I've been following this processes in the lawn for a while, mixing things I've learned from regenerative farming, wildlife food plotting and lawn care nuttery. I have a St Augustine lawn (touch of Bermuda), during the winter I broadcast ryegrass, oats and annual clover for more root growth, but I have wet soil (gumbo clay), so I have to keep something growing all year long or it's soup!
For two years while I had them, I ran meat rabbits on the lawn which was a great natural way to fertilize and prune the lawn.
Great job guys! I always believed in the greenery ( photosynthesis). I will see what the Docu has to say!
Really interesting. I'm going to make an effort to watch the documentary.
Fascinating talk I’ve been thinking a lot about lately. I have a 15,000 sq ft St. Aug lawn which looks great, thanks to you Allyn. I also have a 10,000 sq ft garden in which I grow tomato’s, peppers, eggplant, okra, sweet potatoes, and a ton of herbs (I’m in Miami so I grow things suitable for my agricultural zone). What do I use in my garden? Floragreene, Microgreene, RGS, Humic 12. My yields are off the charts, I think you need to target this DIY market as well. I would love to see some content on your videos regarding the use of Greene County products for this purpose. I’ve been trying to create a small food forest, you should look up the work of Geoff Newton in regards to creating a micro environment, something he calls a food forest.
My primary cover crops are dandelion and 🦀 grass!
The earth is a living planet and she doesn't like being bare. This interview was top
notch and probably the best I've ever seen. A+++. Will check out the documentary.
Thank you Allyn and John.
John Perry is THE MAN
I like these kind of educational videos about how to soil works and how to improve it for better lawns. Other good documentaries that sound like it is similar to this video are the carbon cowboy videos on UA-cam.
Plant a root. Very interesting my friends
Haven't watched the Documentary but I think its also worth mentioning that we don't need to throw down heavy all the time. Maybe if your thin or your trying to get the grass to grow out of some damage but 1lb on the ground per month during the growing season is too much for an already healthy lawn. Too much N can cause some of the same problems as tillage as the soil microbes blow through this all you can eat N buffet taking a lot of the carbon with it. N drives the bus for sure but take note of some of these other key ingredients we have as well, humic acid, sea weed, micros and for those of us in sandy soils K is almost always lacking. So far I've been pretty happy with how far .25lb per 1000 per month goes with greene punch and some humic/micros. I guess we'll see how this summer as we're only 22 days into FL fert ban. I think the Zoysia will do just fine though.
nice!
How about the current trend to rip up turf in drought struck areas. And covering it with rock like Los Vegas, are they helping a short term solution a causing longer term problems?
I will check it out, great conversation. John stick around another week ? :):)
Striperman, Good Friday evening to you mate , a glorious blue sky bird chirping Saturday morning here mate heading for 21 max temp today ., got a mow in yesterday, sprayed the front lawn with some fert this morning , the lawn is still growing slowly and able to mow once weekly . How is it your way today?
Good Saturday morning Trevor. Perfect weather for your lawn and the birds. Will be doing the same here tomorrow. Happy American Father's Day on Sunday. I know yours is in September but you will be an honorary American this weekend. 😁
Striperman, thanks mate , I’ll let the wife and the kids know , breakfast in bed and some Father’s Day gifts twice this year , I’ll be in that, 🤣
And I will be an Aussie in September so that I will be in as well 😂
Striperman, honorary Aussie you’ll become on Aussie Father’s Day this September. 😎
Charlene deck looks like it needs leveled. I have the same john deere and I have to check mine every few months and every time it needs adjustment. Yours may be perfect just FYI.
I watched the doc twice a few weeks ago and had the same epiphany that my 5k sq ft lawn is doing a small part. It is pretty cool. It was good to hear y'alls input .
Let’s gooo
How’s it going bro
Thank you for putting out this video. This was a casual conversation about things that matter to us all. I don't think I'll ever look at my soil the same. Well done!
First Aussie 😁
How much carbon does a single volcanic eruption release into the atmosphere versus man? Could it be nature works in cycles with or without man here? The Great Lakes used to be covered by glaciers? Where did they go? Man didn’t melt them.
Is mechanic aeration similar to farmers using tillage? I’m curious if this is why liquid aeration was created in the first place as it appears there is no need to mechanically aerate if the soil is performing well from proper cultural practices, i.e. mowing, watering, and proper fertilizing.
Overseeding
Allyn, the suggestion that maintaining residential lawn / turfgrass in the LCN way is beneficial to the planet and environment WITHOUT addressing at all the net effect in terms if carbon etc seems shortsighted. So turf locks in/filters etc but that comes at what cost maintained as you promote? What are the environmental costs of sourcing raw materials, producing, transporting, applying all the chemicals we apply to our lawns? I don't know the answer to this question but am interested to know. For the record, I own your guides and buy your and GCF products; I am a customer. But if you're going to have a discussion about science and facts, make it balanced.
NASA satellite photos also show that increased atmospheric CO2 has already made the entire earth greener
So, if their theory is correct that "covering the earth with more greenery" would solve the solve 'the climate crisis.' isn't global warming already defeating itself all by itself?
if the world had more deep roots it could endure both humans and volcanoes
Their claims about solving the climate crisis are unfortunately rather massively overstated.
Just go rogue. Lots of HOA's have mismanaged land. Plant appropriate trees in there. Crime Pays but Botany doesn't would do it.
Yes cities allow Developers to plant bullshit plants that don't survive in the area and don't require more native plants to develop areas

So i guess aerating your yard your are releasing carbon back into the atomsphere?
