The Grass Factor

07/06/2026

This is the last thing I ever want to have to share. There are simply no words.

David Watkins has been a friend of ours for a decade.

And little Kaylee, whether it was a shout out on the show or her hanging around her dad's office and asking questions while we chat about whatever new thing we thought we discovered in lawn care, we all watched Kaylee grow up.

David is the kind of dad we can all look at and immediately know that's the kind of man we should all be more like. And his incredible family is the outward testimony we all witness.

Please, keep him and his family in your thoughts and prayers.

And if you're of means, please consider supporting them through this immeasurably painful tragedy.

Rest easy, sweet girl.

On Friday, July 3, 2026, our family experienced the unimaginable. My beautiful niece, … Lara Mote needs your support for Help Us Honor Kaylee's Beautiful Life

I was reviewing programs QT generated with a lawn company in TX today.

Noticed recommendation to apply P.

Not often I see P this low.

But then I caught it - clippings are removed from the site.

Turf should respond quite nicely to the addition of S. Will be interested to monitor results after applications of P as well.

Racing the machines against my experience is ... humbling 😅

I was talking to a friend of mine not too long ago.

He said something that hit me like a ton of bricks.
'
It inspired me.

It was honestly one of the more profound rhetorical questions I've been asked in quite some time.

"Have you ever considered you haven't failed enough?"

Many old and new friends put work and will continue to see this through the finish line.

Luckily for us, the race has just begun.

In a moment of "wtf am I doing" - we started developing a SaaS product to automate agronomic information. Maybe by the end of 2025, we can be mostly in a position to say, "I remember when I used to worry about applying the wrong product."

Wild times.
