It was interesting what was said about heirloom versus hybrid plants responding to biology. It seemed to make since.

Has anyone used calcium to loosen soils and sugar or molasses to add carbon? If so what results did you get.

[@indica_dogo868]

It sounds like you should be asking Glenn Rabenburg about the calcium

I will be using calcium acetate soon, I will come back with the results...

@@indica_dogo868 I have watched his videos. Just trying to see if anyone has tried it and what the results are. I am just a home gardener. I did purchase a small bag from Soil Works. I have only put one application on so far.

Unless you have a good level of soil biology, a large app of Ca wont do much, nor for very long. You need soil biology to do the hard work, and with a very small amount of Ca apps, will acheive results. And this will work in tandem with the folowing. It is all linked. To build soil C, look at multi species cover crops, with compost extract, and a thick mulch. And use that as a standard management system
