High Bionutrient Crop Production with Dan Kittredge Part 4 

The seminars in this series is the most insightful and inspiring information I've heard in my whole life, so far. Thanks for sharing!! :-)

Great Series. Looking forward to more! Stayed up to 2 AM binge watching this.

This is incredibly interesting, informative, and exciting! Thank you Mr. Kittredge for your work and for sharing this critical information!

Blueberries can be raised in much higher Ph. Blueberries can be raised in lower PH but that does not mean that is what they want. When roots reach a barrier, the plant defines downwards what they can do. Space. Tillers = stems with grain on it. Plant tomatoes later and further apart. When the plant sends out its roots and find no limits, then it grows to full capacity. This increases yield 200 to 400%.He plants kale 3 feet apart. Space plants further out. Get more yields with less labor. He can either add mulch and crimp and lay down his cover crop.Potting soils are sterilized and worthless. Geneticist: Corn yield should be over 1,000 bushels per acre. Yield actual is 160 bushels. 16% is not good. Compost potting soils are better. Potting soils need calcium, silica and trace elements. Dirt from your garden does not make good potting soil. Foliar spraying is good. The leaf has microbes that are beneficial to it. Use a mist blower. 4 gallon capacity. Do it at dusk. Foliar spraying can make you look like a better farmer than you are.

Such great information. Thank you Dan!

Also, I really seem to break all the rules. I grow my plants in pure sand,Vermiculite, and pumice. In a 5 gallon pot, got around 20lb of tomatoes (slightly conservative estimate) and that's with a late, store bought plant. Of course, I gave it a nice organic layer and mulch layer and the plants ate ALL of it up. By the end of the season, plant grew through the pot into the surrounding soil and the compost-mulch layer was basically gone by the end. I think the real rules are simple: 1. Keep in aerobic 2. Provide roots with ample room 3. Mulch layer be organic and biological 4. Ample water and sun light I mean, that seems to be it. I did hardly anything from aphids. Ironically, I had them in the beginning before the lady bugs and the plants got healthier and took em out and the end of the season, when it got chilly and brix probably went down. Blight? Only early blight but plant grew straight out of it and didn't really get late blight lmao.

Thank you! Wow, great system!

Thanks

Is there a link to do studies about crops knowing yield 2 weeks after germination or when root bound? I kind of want to know about that

26:00 Biochar - Until it is innoculated with beneficial soil organisms, it is just charcoal. When charcoal is first made, it contains substances that are actually toxic to beneficial soil dwelling soil organisms. Dr. Elaine Ingham, PhD is a soil microbiologist, and she talks about this in some of her presentations on RU-vid. Or see her website: www.SoilFoodWeb.com

Soul force is the divine aspect of creation, a mother tree hundreds of years old has greater soul force than a new seedling, it is mana from our games. You can still be in that alter state of consciousness but your consciousness is replaced your day to day persona.

@Living web farms, Why do you post these seminars but don't post the study notes??? I would like to implement some of these practices but have very little information to go by. I need more information on organic sources of micronutrients and where to find them. This guy seems to bounce all over the place like a pinball but does not give very exact information. He is more like an artist than a scientist. I don't have much patience for artists!

Learning a lot, but I have so many questions. If you're growing a "living mulch" perennial cover on permanent annual vegetable beds, like white clover or creeping thyme, will an annual vegetable seedling limit its growth and yield potential based on growing in close proximity to these perennial roots? I've read in other sources that root proximity shouldn't limit nutrient uptake in healthy, biologically active soil as long as there is physically enough room for both root systems.

And then European myths and legends say the same thing. Plants talk in our myths. The scientists have made singing trees, look it up.

regarding the onion having multiple potential outcomes based on environmental factors, could that explain why they have five times as much DNA as humans? news.harvard.edu/gazette/story/2000/02/why-onions-have-more-dna-than-you-do/
