sargentscraps Posted January 31, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2016 Thanks for the replies all, much appreciated. Just had a look at Dragonfly Earth Medicine, are you able to get it shipped to Aus? Or is it sold anywhere here? I've got a nice worm farm at home, probably wouldn't be there enough to maintain one where the garden is, hence why I'd go a couple of compost bays. Will check the other stuff you mentioned! Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers I've tried to get them over here & they will send them but cost of shipping was a little full on & we sorta stopped emailing they were willing to remove them from the jars to make shipping cheaper , do a youtube search there in a few vids worth listening to especially when she is asked about probs in her garden , answer " We Don't Have Any Probs In Our Garden " . love it i'm running no till in my small backyard garden , something that get's better as each crop is pulled & you start again if your into closing the loop you want to check out Lactobacillus aka EM-1you make it yourself with rice water & milk or buy it up to you , but that is the basis of Dragonfly's garden products Fermented Plant Extracts - FPE , Seed Sprout Teas - SST , Integrated Pest Management - IPM all things you can use as part of a closed loop system , growing , making & producing your own fertilizer , food , organic pesticide , whatever Just seeing the picks one thing i would say is cover those beds , mulch , living mulch even plastic , natural way of thingsleaves drop to the surface to cover the ground & keep moist for life to live & breakdown that matter so the feeder roots whichwill now grow into moist soil can feed There is one thing in a old growth forest that is in abundance & is everywhere but you will never see , Soil ! cheers mate keep us updated , love to hear how ya going with it Ps , My Mum the jam maker would kill to live next to you or maybe live next to your , Blood Plums !
