Glyphosate Uncovered: Risks, Uses and Turf Tips

Episode 12

Tuesday, January 6, 2026 • Duration 16:56

Dr. Russell Sharp explains what glyphosate (Roundup) is, how it works as a systemic non‑selective herbicide, and why it remains widely used in turf care and agriculture.

The episode covers controversies and legal cases, the misuse of LD50 data, environmental persistence, effects on soil micronutrients and microbial communities, and emerging resistance in some weeds.

Practical advice is given on safe application timing and PPE, treating accidental herbicide damage, the company history and product variants, Eutrema's Ivy Pre‑Spray, and future tech possibilities like micro‑spray robo‑weeders.

The Granular Fertiliser Illusion: Why Nearly Every Pre-Plant Fertiliser Looks the Same

Episode 11

Monday, December 29, 2025 • Duration 03:27

Many pre-plant granular fertilisers share a 6-9-6 NPK because a few UK manufacturers produce bulk granules and white-label them for multiple brands, creating an illusion of choice. Granules are cheap to make, often contain chloride salts that can cause leaf scorch, and can stick to leaves if moisture is present. Liquid fertilisers, while requiring a sprayer, offer greater flexibility, plant-available ingredients like silicon, and allow mixing with biostimulants. If buying granulars, compare NPK ratios and appearance to spot likely white-labelled products.

The 90-Element Myth: What’s Really in “Full Spectrum” Fertilisers

Episode 10

Tuesday, November 4, 2025 • Duration 10:20

Dr. Russell Sharp examines fertiliser products that claim to contain dozens or even 90+ chemical elements, explaining why many of those claims are impossible, unsafe, or irrelevant.

He walks through the periodic table, rules out noble gases, synthetic and highly radioactive elements, and highlights the nutrients plants actually need, urging listeners to ask suppliers for clear element lists.

Triacontanol: revolutionary turf biostimulant or just hype?

Episode 8

Fairy Rings: Hidden Lawn Killer?

Episode 7

Thursday, September 18, 2025 • Duration 08:15

Dr. Russell Sharp explains what fairy rings are, why they become visible after droughts, and how their hydrophobic exudates and waxy residues can cause grass death and uneven growth on lawns and sports turf.

He outlines practical management: maintain irrigation, reduce thatch, use wetting agents, consider spot applications of lime sulfur as an organic soil sterilant, and reseed damaged areas. Fungicides are of limited use for soil fungi, so targeted, cautious treatments and cultural control are recommended.

Flooded Lawns & Turf: Causes, Symptoms and Fast Fixes

Episode 6

Wednesday, September 17, 2025 • Duration 42:53

Dr. Russell Sharp takes a deep dive into flooding and waterlogging across gardens, farms and sports turf—explaining causes like clay pans and heavy rain, the physiological damage to roots and crops, common symptoms such as patchy chlorosis and shallow rooting, and secondary risks like nutrient loss and pathogen spread.

The episode also covers practical treatments and prevention: why you shouldn’t work wet soil, mechanical drainage and mole ploughing, liming and gypsum, organic matter and mycorrhizae, plus Utrema’s liquid gypsum solution that can improve drainage without digging—useful for lawns, golf courses, allotments and arable land.

Why Liquidising Food Waste Will Starve Your plants

Episode 4

Tuesday, September 16, 2025 • Duration 03:23

Dr. Russell Sharp explains why pouring liquidised food waste or adding fresh, uncomposted plant material to soil or lawns can harm plant growth. Microbes breaking down this material consume available nitrogen, causing nitrogen deficiency and chlorosis in your plants, and fresh food waste can also attract pests like rodents and rabbits.

The episode advises always composting organic matter or significantly increasing nitrogen if you must add uncomposted material, and warns about common sources such as grass clippings, manure, and mulch.

Thatch - what is it? Causes? And the pros and cons of different solutions!

Episode 3

Monday, September 15, 2025 • Duration 11:43

Dr Russell Sharp explains what thatch is, how it builds up, and why it harms turf. He covers causes like rapid growth, drought and the harmful effects of overusing iron and copper products.

The episode reviews control methods — scarifying, raking, microbial and enzyme treatments — and the limitations of some commercial products.

Russ outlines Eutrema’s Thatch Degrader, how it stimulates native microbes to break down thatch, practical results, and pricing for lawn and sports-turf use.
