John Niswonger “The 6 Soil Health Principle” (Improving Soil Health Workshop)

A guy in Idaho told me he got just under 6 tons of alfalfa this year on 2nd year establishment. He makes his own biology

+1, need to have the camera set up to focus on the overhead slides even if the presenter is partially cut out of the frame. I let the video run like a pod cast but a slight change for next year.

Real shame we can't see the slides

I’m strictly a curious bystander observing you gentlemen do citizen science on a scale that matters. Your videos are not entertainment for me but most are confirmation that the same principles you are employing apply to a home-scale vegetable garden. I’ve been growing plants for food for 40+ years in very different places (contexts) and I’m getting closer to finding the most basic way to grow enough essential food for 4 people to live securely. Keeping living roots in the ground perpetually is essential. I think it was Dr. David Johnson who described a properly functioning microbial system as “high velocity” and that describes it perfectly. As you transition your land between crops and pasture and back again, I see direct parallels with my experience using extract inoculation and constantly harvesting and frequent replanting diverse vegetables. I’ve steered other home growers to your site so I hope someone else will comment that they too are making your content part of their self education in Regenerative Growth. Nice job, John!

Sorry I should have gotten them from John

[@outlander330cc]

What did the guy say is a natural dewormer at 50:30? The audio is weird and I can't tell what was said.

Pumpkins in cover crops
