Yes, this video is about Nitrogen, nitrogen fertilizer to be precise. This video covers off production of nitrogen through biological processes and manufacturing. The history of how we got to where we are is rich and it's a story that should be told.

Fertilizer for your lawn and garden available at your local store hasn't always been easy to get nor was it plentiful. Fertilizer as we know it was created to solve a global problem, future generational starvation. The first production nitrogen didn't enter our world until 1908 and wasn't in massive supply until the 1930's.

This video covers some historical points of when and and where the process took place and how we got to have so much of it available. I also talk about what the world would be like without commercially produced fertilizer.

I hope you take the time to watch and or listen to this video and that it makes you think a bit more about your fertilization program and what you can be doing differently to your lawn. This video is for all you pro lawn care folks, all you DIY lawn lovers and those interested in history and science.

You will soon connect the dots on why I fertilize lawns the way I do and the theory behind that process. Needless to say, many of us owe our lives to the advancement of science and nitrogen fertilizer production is one of those many advancements that have made life as we know it possible. Now when you ask "how much fertilizer should I apply to my lawn," you can understand a little bit more about where it came from.
