Turtile did you catch my incorrectness? Because i would love you to explain your statement and i will clarify my tongue-in-cheek as well. Thanks.
So why I am busy this week, lets all give the soil food web some study and Dr. Elaine Ingham some overdue credit.
The answers I have given the hint to, are the solution to "the future of fertilizer". Better would be "the future of the soil microbiology and soil food web".
Fertilizer is now just the F-word. We need to do away with a conventional mindset, because a closed mind has no room to expand and learn.
And these questions about yeild and quality or quantity are sadly being destroyed by studies on compost tea.
It is the things we do not have the privilege of being able to see that have some of the largest impact on our lives. Gotta love them microbes.
Got a nice book this past weekend, now need some reading time. One Straw Revolution, thanks Permakid!
