My attempt to explain ph in 60 seconds

Cannot believe we are into velvet season already!! Cannot wait to watch these suckers grow!!!

Just using our fish+humics - working to create more biomass, period. However, I also have plfa, conventional and Haney tests here to further analyze if needed. In the above post when I say “foliar applications” I simply mean, that using them to drive biomass will be helpful if/when I have...

Ok ok. I know I know - I talk about exclusion fences a lot but I just cannot explain the importance enough. I continue to learn from them. This field is new and has a sub 5 ph (although lime has been applied). Deer are eating in it often and it’s a good sized field (a few acres). All that...

There are a lot of great companies out there. Here is a little about how/why/what we wanted to bring to the table when it comes to food plotters to gardeners to farmers. Thanks for giving it a watch!

We couldn’t do what we love without those wonderful men and women. Here is our small way of supporting them!

A few soil testing tips

Yall got me excited so I did a quick update on the mowing of garden crop.

have you tried just staggering the mowing? I plan to try this with crimping. Crimp when planting and then crimp again a week or two later. Or even mow high a week or two later to hit anything that pops up. The young seedlings shouldn’t get damaged as they’ll be small and the results should be...

So there is some extremely impressive USDA studies on flail mowers for multi species cover crop termination - I agree with you. I just terminated my fall carbon load in my garden (seen above) with a push mower haha. Ill update progress today or tomorrow but it’s amazing the rate of term. As...

So that depends on the growers goals. I think the key to HV is how much and a little goes a long way!! I’ve kept it around 1-2% of total mix and it produces enough biomass without binding up a bushog. You throw a full acre rate out there - it’ll get thick fast. Because of that lower rate -...

Yes sir. We don’t use hairy vetch in our NB (only did year one) but since we wanted to use it in fall. We use American joint vetch in NB. That way there is more diversity on a single field between the two plantings (very little species overlap). Carbon load has 16 species - most make it...
