Rest for a year is understood as soil rest every sunday. Which equals 52 days a years. Multiply 7 yrs by: 52 x 7 = 364 days which equals a year. 😃

Keith Berns six fundamental truths of BioGrace? 1) Solar energy is free and plants are the best way to capture it. 2) Carbon is not a problem - Its free food for plants and biology. 3) Nitrogen is free and abundant. 4) Soils are rich in plant nutrients and minerals. 5) Soil biology makes the system bigger, faster, stronger. 6) Water is essential to all life and the process.

NEMATODES! People sometimes joke about "what is a weed, anyway?"... I usually say a "weed" is something that's resistant to nematodes! If you can eat it, too? I'm a fan already. I meant to plant this a few years ago, and am just getting around to it now... and had to watch the video a few more times since I forgot everything. Thanks for bringing this obscure topic!

It's relatively tiring work-It takes me about 10 minutes to very thoroughly crimp one of our 70 ft rows, and after that, I'm ready for a short break. So probably a couple hours total for the 10 rows we had overwintering mix planted in our garden this year.

I'm not planning on tarping since we waited until anthesis. I've had good success with tarping after crimping in the past, so it will be interesting to see how this does without the tarp.

Does hybrid mean GMO? Is roundup ready GMO? Just asking for info
@keithberns910
@keithberns910 20 күн бұрын
Good question... Hybrid simply means taking or combing the genes from two plants of the same species using natural methods - this happens all of the time - both in nature and in plant breeding and this is NOT a GMO because it is just using the genetic variability found within the same plant species. GMO is when a plant has had their genetic makeup altered to exhibit traits that are not naturally theirs. In general, genes are taken (copied) from one organism that shows a desired trait and transferred into the genetic code of another organism.

will this flower mix work to bring back a poor soil area to get it ready for a more typical cover mix. helping to rejuvenate a poor spot . or does it need an improved soil to get going for the pollinators?
@keithberns910
@keithberns910 21 күн бұрын
I would not start with this mix in really tough soils - it is too expensive for the first steps. Start with a really diverse mix like Warm Season Soil Builder or the High Diversity mix. These mixes will have a lot more plant families that can express themselves in different environmental conditions.

Thanks for this video. It's much easier to see what the mix will look like in a video than in the photos on your web site. Could you do a video on your Perennial Pollinator mix as a comparison? The web page for that mix has just one closeup photo of one flower. EDIT: And, while I'm at it, you have two new mixes on your site: "Honeybee and Pollinator Production" and "Annual Summer Honey Mix." Videos of those mixes would be great. Plus, you should have links on the product pages to those videos.

When more of our neighbors adopt regenerative practices we will have more rain and greater overall abundance. @21:08 or so, in talking about the timing of cover crop termination and water, the small water cycle and the effects of the biotic pump brings to mind a question of how rainfall is encouraged and created by the existence of growing plants.

Some farmers are employing mobile composting cover crop terminators that vacuum up the most recent plant cycle, composts them, and then adding to the farm nutrient cycling, automatically deposits the finished product on living soil where it is reincorporated. These wonderful siem autonomous self-replicating farm management tools also give meat and dairy by-products!?

If pea seeds are the goal, then 70:30 by seed count with rye; 60:40 with barley or oats are common ratios used all over in Europe. Winter fava beans, peas, barley or oats, and canola grow together well and separate easily for Martin Williams from Down Under.

Here in Maine if you go by the don't plant till your soil is 60 Degrees at 9 am we do not have that here till June. It was suggested to me then not to worry about a cover crop since I would be planting my Fall hunting blend from GreenCover seed in August anyway. Last year was the first time I tried the GreenCover Fall seed blend and it was my best food plot by far to date. Now that I have that laying on the ground I assume I just leave it alone till I start the next planting. I am a paraplegic hunter (Maine North Woods Hunter) is my KZbin channel. All I have is an ATV to use at this sight. Any suggestions on what I should do to plant this next round in August? What kind of soil preparation should I do and should I use something to kill off the plants before I start the new planting? I do get Ferns in this area. Any and all help is greatly appreciated. Thank you and Good Hunting to you. Maine North Woods Hunter (Shane)

Is there a way to get away from spraying?
@growthefarmup2606
@growthefarmup2606 Ай бұрын
Yes, but no! Lol. Spray it out!!! I've waited until May 20th to terminate cover crop mix and planted the 30th of May. Best yields I've seen over the last 10 years. The longer you can let those cover roots grow, the better they do for soil health. However, if you don't have irrigation. I suggest to err on the side of terminate earlier. I've tried roller crimping, it's over rated and effects emergence. I've had better luck just planting straight into 3 foot tall crispy brown cover crop in late may. My 2 cents... this advise is worth what you paid for it! Lol.
