## Resource

In this video, I break down the “DirtBooster Organic Lawn and Garden Treatment” video from How to With Doc and take a closer look at the claims around soil microbes, biochar, humic substances, and “super compost.” The product is promoted as a way to rapidly build soil biology using ingredients like biochar, molasses, and microbial additives, but does the science support the idea that this translates into better turfgrass performance? We evaluate the logic, the mechanisms being implied, and whether these types of organic amendments actually deliver measurable benefits in turfgrass systems, lawn care, and soil management. #turfgrass #lawncare #soilscience #organicfertilizer #biochar #humicacid #turfgrassepistemology Become a member of Turfgrass Epistemology and support turfgrass research:www.youtube.com/@TurfgrassEpistemology/join Voicemail:859-444-4234 Apple Podcasthttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/turfgrass-epistemology/id1717271379 Spotify Podcasthttps://open.spotify.com/show/1cTpdrChToeEFAOX9wkXFI iHeart Radio Podcasthttps://www.iheart.com/podcast/1323-turfgrass-epistemology-129043524/ Podbeanhttps://turfgrassepistemology.podbean.com/ Online consultingCalendly.com/TravisShaddox TwitterTwitter.com/TravisShaddox EmailTravisShaddox@gmail.com Turfgrass Programs and Extension Service Information:https://www.usna.usda.gov/assets/images/as_pdf_image/LandGrantColleges.pdf
