Ive read the ancient history behind it, and from what I understand when Florida was covered in ocean thousands of years ago that area was above sea level. Apparently the area that I hunt is all ancient sand dunes. It's very protected, and there are plants growing there that don't grow anywhere else. Very cool place to hunt and camp.

CORN GLUTEN MEAL PRE-EMERGENT The timing for applying corn gluten meal for pre-emergent weed control is just before the weeds start to germinate. We usually guess that to be February 15 to March 15 in the South. Liquid corn gluten meal spray - a listener/farmer recommendation that's a great idea. The way we use corn gluten on our fields - we make a tea out of it and spray on the fields once a month from Autumn to May. Works very well. We use 2 to 6 cups of corn gluten to 100 gallons of water and spray it on with a pull behind sprayer. We just put the corn gluten meal in panty hose and suspend it in the sprayer when we fill it up, then swish the panty hose, remove and stir. Use at about 35 gallons per acre. Simple, economical and effective.

@xyzsame40813 жыл бұрын
Be cautious with sand, the best improvement is with compost, and I think wood chips. Added and worked into the dense soil. I know -temporary nitrogen binding where the wood is processed by funghi, but in that case you need to get structure into the soil and pores and the nitrogen can be fixed from the top in form of liquid fertilizer, manure or whatever. Gypsum is a temporary fix (that should be used with a lot of moderation, if at all, it also comes at the cost of fertility). What can happen is the that the clay gets into the pores of sand and cloggs them, you do not get the best of both worlds, and you would need to add 50 % sand to clay in order to really soften the soil - and that comes with a price in fertility, ability to hold water and exchange of ions (nutrition).

David the Good has an article on his blog (Can you do no dig on clay). Southern state, clay soil (pottery quality material), and lots of rain, so still problem with standing water that also stands in the good layer that has already been built if they have one or two weeks of rain. The woman he interviwed should have dug deep ONCE (even maybe using machines) and on that occasion should have worked in lots of organic matter / wood chips. Temporary drainage would have been an option to consider. At least the ground is flat - if it would have a slope the good layer would have already slided down on a water film during periods of heavy rain. I read that straw gets slimy under such conditions, but wood chips are supposed to be good, or maybe hay. I guess newspaper crushed into in balls could be added - not as flat sheet - might also be good to provide some structure and holes and airpockets where life can enter from top down. Or shreddered paper or carton in pieces. Wet newspaper sheets clings to the underground (if it is laid out) even more than wet _sheets_ or carton and seals off everything under it from air, and a little bit from water. With the Back to Eden method they use that trait of wet newspaper and carton on top to smother lawn and weeds in order to turn a meadow or lawn into a vegetable garden. So the paper carton would need to have another structure to give structure to the soil. paper are a form of wood. because it clings well to the underground Careful weighing down can help to settle down the soil. Just enough so that there are no larger airpockets depending on what you bury underground, wet paper balls will disintegrate soon and the soil if it gets wet will weigh it down. (some bury logs and branches for instance at the bottom of higher raised beds and they see to it that have no pockets - of course they do not use clay soil to set up a raised bed - unless that soil has already been transformed) - Airpockets could host insects and critters.. She has two distinct layers, the good top soil she built and the (dead) clay zone where nothing can enter, no air, worms, roots, and water goes through very slowly. They cleared trees on the ground. There is a reason there were trees - and not even those change the underground much. After they cut them down, the ground turned hard and compacted despite the rain, and then they mulched it for 2 years, plus 2 years of gardening with intense soil care and adding compost. Others with not quite as bad clay soil and less rain have seen some improvements with the no dig top down approach, but it does not work for her, and most gardners see some improvement after year 2. So it could take 10 years before the top layer is so high and has such a water holding capacity that life can exist in the deeper layers and some air and soil organisms might be able to exist in the border zone - without being drowned (= no oxygen) on a regular base.

Happy accident from a woman in Iowa. wood chips (pine, coarse) in clear bags, organic chips were hard to get, so she bought more than she needed and stored them outside. Rain got into it and the sun - and they broke down in 2 months, that is fast for any compost, let alone wood chips. That was in Iwoa - lots of sun in the summer (clear bags) but also good rain. I think if you can get your hand on woodchips that could be a way to produce lots of fluffy substrate fast. In that case the fungi that processed the chips did not temporarily bind nitrogen - from soil that is (maybe they can do w/o or they even draw nitrogen from the air. That is a lot of hassle for organisms (or humans, not easy to get the nitrogen, needs a lot of energy), so it is possible that as long as there is nitrogen in surrounding soil it becomes the go to source, and the fung doing that, win the race in the soil. I would inoculate the bags with some rotten down wood (or water where it was soaked). the only input was water, likely some air, and lots of energy in form of heat. And the clear bag as reactor. That would provide you with lots of substrate to mix into your silt, and while it is not very fertile (minerals and nutrients) it is at least already broken down and provides the sturcture, the pores, the water retention, the space of bacetria, fungi, air, worms ... Clay, silt is rich in minerals (such soils once they are transformed are excellent), and nitrogen is not that hard to fix.

Good video, never seen you guys before. Take a sample of any soil and fill it up a little more than halfway and then fill the rest up with water within one inch of the top. Then shake it vigorously for 10 minutes making sure that everything gets wet and then it's swirling around before you set it down. The next day you will see layers of different soil construction. And you'll be able to determine what you're low on depending on what kind of garden you're going to grow. I own a large Rock crusher and other machines to reduce anything down to 100 - which feels a lot like flour. I can see collecting clay and pulverizing it down to 300 - or maybe just 100 - would be sufficient. And then sell bags of it.

G'day from Australia Pete, please help me !! I have recently put in a permaculture food forest, I simply laid cardboard over my pre existing grass which lies on sandy soil and I then laid 4 - 6 inches of aborist mulch over the top and around newly planted trees, I was wondering if over time the sand below the cardboard will become rich soil from worms entering and mixing the mediums or is the woodchip layer and above what will become my rich soil zone? Anyone else who can give me a tip or 2 is greatly appreciated !

I'm also worried about slow build up of woodchip/soil over time to the point that it drowns out the trees in my small space, I feel like I should be taking woodchip away then dig down into the earth to make a 6 inch compost layer prior to chipping again. I don't want a deep concave under every tree, ideally a mound for companions is ideal

I once came across a video documentary that was about how china is reclaiming desert land by planting trees. The ground there is also desert sand. They had to come up with a whole new system. Their key to success was an additive that they added to the desert sand that made it water proof. So the sand remains sand like except for the fact that it holds the water so they were able to start drip irrigation as well as liquid fertilizer. The trees that they planted would then shed a lot of leaves and sticks and this plant matter would then start a natural nutrient cycle. Ending up with reclaimed desert land where research has shown that the man made forests are also changing the weather in that there is more rainfall where the reclaimed land is reestablished. South america is about to find out first hand how such a desert comes about and how their actions today are going to change not only the landscape but also the weather. Deforestation =Depopulation, just ask the Ethiopian people as well as the ancient Chinese and the extinct peoples that were running around the Sahara forests, then grasslands and finally desert. . . We sheeple really have to wake up some time, pull ourselves towards ourselves and start to actually do what is expected from us as the "top of the food chain" organisms of this planet. . Preferably before The Universe decides to choose someone else to do it. Stewardship is our purpose. Pray TGC Blessings in abundance :)
