Growers Gonna Grow is a business-focused conversation about the plant supply side of the green industry.
Hosted by Rayne Gibson, the show bridges the gap between nurseries and landscape contractors by unpacking the planning, timing, systems, and operational realities behind how plants move from field to jobsite.
This is not a plant care show. It is about the business side of plants. Why do availability issues happen? Why does timing matter? Where do install projects go sideways? And what does smarter plant planning looks like in practice?
With decades of experience on the nursery side of production, sales, wholesale sourcing, and operations, Rayne brings an insider’s perspective to conversations that help the industry operate more efficiently and profitably.
If you want a clearer understanding of how plant supply really works, this is the show.
CRMs, AI, Coaching, and Consulting with Neal Glatt
BONUS EPISODE
Before the official interview began (Ep.19), Neal Glatt and I had an unscripted conversation about the evolving relationship between CRMs, AI, sales training, coaching, and consulting. In this bonus session, we compare where each tool adds value, where businesses often misuse them, and why technology alone cannot replace strong leadership, clear expectations, and consistent development.

In this episode of Growers Gonna Grow, Rayne Gibson sits down with Neal Glatt, founder and CEO of Neal Glatt Sales and Strategy, to discuss what separates great sales managers from great salespeople.
Many companies assume their top-performing salesperson is the obvious choice to lead a team. But selling and leading require different skills.

Why Rack Your Plants with Lucy Diaz
In this episode of Growers Gonna Grow, Rayne Gibson sits down with Lucy Diaz, to explore one of the most overlooked parts of the green industry supply chain.
While growers, contractors, and garden centers focus on sourcing, selling, and installing plants, an entire logistics network is working behind the scenes to move plant material safely and efficiently across the country.
Lucy shares insight into the role racks play in plant transportation, the challenges of reverse logistics, and why asset management has become a critical part of modern nursery operations. The conversation also explores how transportation impacts costs, where breakdowns occur in the system, and what the future of plant logistics may look like.
If you've ever received a shipment of plants and wondered what happens before and after that truck arrives, this episode pulls back the curtain on the infrastructure that keeps the green industry moving.
