itchybromusic Posted June 12, 2017 Report Share Posted June 12, 2017 million ways to do it , if going the no till route just add to the top but you do need to cover with something else like straw , full of lignin which feed fungi just like a lasagna , whats at the bottom is being broken down , in the middle starting to brake down & top just getting weathered once that bottom layer is kicking there's plenty of humic acids , part of which is fulvic acid , fulvic is a catalyst to enzyme production , the number one thing happening in seed germination is enzyme production , plenty offulvic in the soil will add to rapid & healthy seed germ many ways to skin a cat , what ever works for you is prob the best way to go 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

torrietree Posted June 12, 2017 Report Share Posted June 12, 2017 Damn interesting read there fellas. Thinking of getting myself so 100l or so bins and making some bush plot wicking beds. Would love them to be pretty self sufficient when it comes to feeding. Since I was too heavy handed season just gone. I'm going to have to set up a big shopping list Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
