And if there’s anyone who can make soil science, not so dry, it’s definitely Stefan!

[@haleya9526]

If your soil is dry, maybe you need more organic material or mulch? Hehe just kidding

[@af.7992]

😂

[@StefanSobkowiak]

Soil science is not dry it should be filled with fun guys.

[@rodjendrysik3444]

Thank you for posting. Continuing to learn!

[@DE2borknot2b]

You explain gardening techniques so simply but it's anything but simple sometimes. There's a lot to regenerative farming/gardening...a person never stops learning.

[@StefanSobkowiak]

Absolutely, a lifelong learning journey.

[@franksmith7419]

IF YOU ACTUALLY SAY REGENERATIVE, THAT WORD ALONE SAYS YOU'VE MISSE THE BOAT. CUT OUT EVERYTHING NATURE DOESN'T PROVIDE, FERTILIZERS COME FROM BUGS, BIRDS AND WORMS, IF YOU USE CHEMICALS OF ANY KIND, YOU'VE MISSED THE BOAT. MIMICK NATURE, IT KNOWS WHAT TO DO.

[@af.7992]

I enjoyed this short intro into this subject. Thank you for sharing with us! ❤🙏❤ Looking forward to more videos! 😊

[@ReapWhatYouSowGardening]

Awesome!!! 🍊🍋🍍🫐🍏

[@fredrickvanolphen3299]

Thanks so much Stefan! ❤️👍❤️

[@StefanSobkowiak]

You are very welcome

[@kforest2745]

Agreed. Funny you should note “building blocks.” I just noted that the other day.

[@oscarherrera9049]

wow this video was excellent

[@varalta.floresta]

I found your channel recently, just mind blowing content!

[@StefanSobkowiak]

Welcome aboard! Lots to binge learn.

[@Gonzalo_M]

Thanks for the video! Are all your trainings good for someone having a year-round greenhouse? 🙂

[@joseamilcarsalgadolainez3586]

Excellent

[@B30pt87]

I liked this, thank you!

[@StefanSobkowiak]

Glad you liked it!

Changer le point de vue en passant de la "nutrition" des plantes à la constitution du sol est une grande avancée en agronomie. La vie des sols est sans doutes l'aspect le plus important et celui qui demande encore le plus de compréhension. Pour des sols vivants outre le carbone et les mineraux, il ne faut pas oublier l'importance de l'oxygène. Je pense que les liste des "essentiels" oublient trop souvent l'oxygène parce qu'il est si abondant dans notre espace de vie, mais cest loin d'être aussi évident dans le sol. Merci de résumer votre réflexion dans ces vidéos de vulgarisation qui améliorent toujours notre compréhension des phénomènes même ceux qui nous saisissons déjà ou croyions déjà saisir ;) .

[@jeremybird5739]

Is the system you've developed syntropic agroforestry for the Quebec climate? Merci beaucoup for the videos you've made. I only have an allotment garden with many restrictions, but I still follow what I can of your advice.

[@StefanSobkowiak]

Not quite syntropic, not as diverse.

[@markblocki7372]

always told people building blocks of life are amino ,silica and carbon feed the soil not your plant!

[@ouickn2153]

ขอขอบคุณ

[@StefanSobkowiak]

Thank you. Blessings.

[@roverinosnarkman7240]

I might be alone, but I prefer the older format videos (in the orchard).

[@StefanSobkowiak]

This series are excerpts from the masterclass videos.

[@janew5351]

How does activated biochar fit to activate flavour in plants?

[@StefanSobkowiak]

Good question, usually it’s the minerals that impart taste. Not sure about biochar. Try it.

[@classicrocklover5615]

I compare biochar to the coral reef in the ocean. The coral itself was once alive, but it also becomes housing for other creatures. In soils case, the microbiome. It's the biome creatures that in turn digest the NPK and minerals and make them bioavailable to plants.

[@user-br8fj4ys4b]

👍👍👍

[@kforest2745]

That’s right, carbon, soil, minerals that’s how the generations did it and light and water did the rest. The true crops are sustenance and sustainment.

[@mechanicsoffreedom]

Speaking of carbon, we humans are the carbon the "elites" want to reduce. That's why it's important to learn to grow food and become self sufficient !

[@kforest2745]

Well said. Perfectly.

[@francostacy7675]

Not that i disagree with any of this, just not really anything new or that I can use in my gardening

[@rogerspaulding6569]

So…..?

Ashes to ashes😂 & dust to dust ! Who said it? ...😂❤

GOD works in mysterious ways! 🙏 Thank you Heavenly Father- you led me to the answer to lower my cholesterol...Diatomaceous Earth! What you were saying...made me realize- silica-

Two people fighting over who owns the land Is like two ticks fighting over who owns the dog. 🤣

[@Sabbathissaturday]

I’m a carnivore! I eat meats, fats, seafood. ❤

[@StefanSobkowiak]

That’s great so you should be very concerned about what those animals eat. Farmed fish are not the same as wild fish, pastured broilers are not the same as cafo chickens, all fats are not equal, …

[@annuki8795]

We are all the prodigal son, Adam/Atom, in our very personal garden. Eden is the present. The LAW of ONE we learn through OSMOSIS. Not everyone has a soul, - eat this - Take the black charcoal pill

[@srantoniomatos]

Stefan, love you, since many years...but this is a word salad! Biochar...any char in soil is "bio". Because soil is alive... Carbon? Steel is carbon, plastic is carbon, we are carbon... 2 is "soil life"? What does that mean? You said yourself: soil is alive. All soils are, even in deserts! We all by now known that plants can live without soil, its call: hidroponics! What are the things that plants cant live without? Water, co2, hidrogen, light, and a few minerals... Because you have a degree in science i would expect more...

[@Blynn-md4dx]

Hydrogen

[@StefanSobkowiak]

I guess it depends how you want your food to taste.

[@Cyclonut96]

@matos, not all soil is alive. Especially when you accidentally apply forever chemicals, your vegetables are degenerated. Try reading up on this. In hydroponics you cannot use demineralized sterile water, it has to have minerals and life. I think you missed the point or are intentionally trying to be a smart ass. You should also read up on biochar, looks like you lack some needed education.

[@srantoniomatos]

@@StefanSobkowiak ohh come on.. Im sure you known that the "food density" of a lettuce grown in soil and one in inddor hidroponics can be exactly the same. Vitamins and sugars depend more on temperatures and sun exposure, both before and after harvest. And the time of and post harvest. The " taste", which is completly subjectiv, depends almost on how to prepare the food. And , as we known, cooking its the time most vitamins and minerals are lost... What does that have to do with carbon and "soil life"? Probably something...everything is connected. We are all one, under the sun...and bla bla bla. One thing we, as growers and consumers, can experience by ourselfs, and sciece backs it, is that the most limiting and influencial factor in plant grow, in the factor we control (and lets exclude co2 - as a "given") - are water and nitrogen. Anyone can test this by doing and experience: add water and N to your 1 sq meter of garden, and then ad compost (compost tea, and whatever you think will boost soil life - nitrogen will boost bacteria, thats proven) to another 1 sq. Which would you say would grow better, bigger, faster, healthier? You showed it yourself: water plus plastic and your trees growed better then water without plastic. Mystify, and language games, are not helping anyone grow better food. Maybe it helps motivate people... Anyway, i still look up for you. You were a good influence in me going back to the land and do permaculture. And maybe im wrong...

[@mosiah3197]

The nutrients that must be added to the water in hydroponics contain carbon.
