I received a comment today on my popular Terra Preta video:
Did you catch that? Ashes and charcoal, chicken manure and fish guts. That’s some highly fertile material.
Incidentally, all those amendments are free.
We managed to hit over a ton of food from a garden of less than 1/3 acre, feeding with ashes and cow manure. If we planted two acres, we’d be in trouble.
You don’t need fancy amendments to grow food.
