If you are building soil right now, you are choosing a future direction for it intentionally or not. A forest grows on a fallen forest - the elements we decompose in our composts influence what will grow best in them once they are soil. What kinds of compost are you making? What will you use them for? What problems will you solve?
If you'd like to learn more, please join us in this EPIC Kickstarter that is almost over & backed by almost 300 amazing people!! If you are a supporter already THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!!! I'm excited for the bonuses and SURPRISES!!! So stay tuned, join the Kickstarter before it's too late, and LIVE REGENERATIVELY!!!

I like this guy. I will be returning to these videos on my farming journey

@k.p.1139 Год назад

Well 😆😆 this explained a WHOLE lot for my garden. Now, alfalfa, is that fungal food? Because I have a tonic about ready to use, and it was made with EM & alfalfa. I was told to make it for a foliage spray, but, wasn't given the purpose. That might be a good thing to know, rather than just being spoon fed, do it.

The termites are farming the bacteria and the ants are farming the fungi and every Saturday after the second rain above 61F in March everybody goes to the Morel Faire Farmers Market

I too put my finished compost into hibernation over the winter. I went a little overboard this year and have a couple of good sized batches to store (1 and a half bins). I am wondering though, what options do I have in storing it? I usually require 2/3 bins for all of the yard and garden waste I have.

@ThePermacultureStudent 5 лет назад

Earth-sheltering is what I've always preferred doing: so using a pit compost method and then covering it with a section of wood and a tarp.

@@ThePermacultureStudent Wow, that is deep. I guess I have fallen into the trap of "coveting the compost." I will have to try it. Thank you so much for the reply.

Matt do you consult tovset up large scale composting?

@ThePermacultureStudent Год назад

I appreciate the offers to do so. I am so busy that I tend to point folks to the courses as they can get more access to me over time and faster that way with our weekly private Q&A's - we have several commercial compost operations with us currently. I really just need to do the book and course work - there's so much more to share still.

@andreaberryman5354 Год назад

I bought compost at store-some forest farms or something, and the stuff is BAD-in the white bag. Plus, it was full of trash! Plasic bag shreds, chunks of metal, plastic and glass-it didn't smell right, and some rank fungus is here now and now everything is dying. The public throws trash, diseased plants, and herbicide-laden junk in their yard waste carts. Won't buy cheap store stuff again. Compost has to sit for at least two years, yeah.

@TheRealMrDiGG 3 года назад

Wow! Nice video, easy to understand. We’re making a compost on a large scale here at our landfill. I’m still learning and your video really helped me understand the difference!

@WH6FQE 5 лет назад

I would love to join the course, but it is just too expensive for the average retired home gardener. Good luck with the kick starter.

@ThePermacultureStudent 5 лет назад

$49 is too much for a 4-week course?

@WH6FQE 5 лет назад

@@ThePermacultureStudent Oh no, I was talking about the Full $399 course, not just the Intro Course. I would love to do the 12-week full course, but I just can't afford it right now with having to rebuild my entire garden and everything. But I have signed up for the Intro Course.

@ccbf477 4 года назад

Love your videos Matt! If I want to have garden compost and soil compost, can I build two piles of hot compost, then keep one as is for the garden, and add 50% wood chips to the other and let it sit for a year and that'll be for the orchard? Do the wood chips need to be ramial? When I read about ramial wood chips in Michael Phillips' book I was so thrown--how can I source these ramial wood chips? I can't imagine most nurseries would separate them out that way? Thank you!

@sweetvuvuzela4634 5 лет назад

Mr powers have you seen the static pile compost su Johnson bio reactor? This is nothing new it was found in 70’s You probably have. Setup the aerated pile and leave it for six months or year add some worms after the heat has gone you end up with clay like compost. My guess this system gives you best of both compost as well as worm cast. Since the longer you leave the compost you allow fungi microorganisms etc to grow properly. Yes not all composts are same it depend upon your feedstocks too. What you put in is what you get out. Happy composting 🧔🏻

@ThePermacultureStudent 5 лет назад

@mikohlfl 5 лет назад

I'm wondering if it's best to add partially finished compost to the top of veggie garden soil. It seems like this would build the soil microbial life in place rather than in a separate compost pile. I understand that you would lose the thermophilic benefits of a hot pile, but it seems that the explosion of the soil digesters in place may be a benefit too.

@ThePermacultureStudent 5 лет назад

It's a great option to put unfinished compost down - often you can use it like a weed deterrant by digesting the top layer of plants and roots in situ!

@dennisleadbetter7721 5 лет назад

Hi Matt, watching your recent series of videos is starting to refocus my thinking and understanding of this complex system. I cannot wait for your books to be released and the full course starts. It's watching nature for the cue and then beating it at its own game with plants you want rather than what nature has at her disposal. Regards Dennis.

One other question that I had is when you started talking about certain weed types I've been battling Morning Glory / bindweed for quite some time and yet to find a purpose for the weed the only true organic thing I can do is be diligent in pulling it when I see it and keep it from flowering to keep it manageable. do you have any ideas what can be done with this to either eradicated it or figure out a benefit and why it's there? What's this type of weeds story...? 🤠 Thx in advance

Matt thx for the video, I have a biological compost tea that's loaded with bio-diversity what I'm thinking of doing is after my compost pile cools down, I was going to inoculate the pile with the brew. Would that be too much of a good thing? After I spread this tea on the wood chips that I use as mulch for my vegetable garden the mycelium was amazing. Thx

No that's great for keeping it active and fresh! SOUNDS AWESOME!

I was in the woods today and I found 5-6 different mushrooms which I collected (As I remember Dr. Elaine said I school do) But now I don't remember what I'm supposed to do with them! Just add them to my compost? Hot cooking compost or finished compost? Or something else altogether. I'm just a urban gardener. Can you help me?

@ThePermacultureStudent 5 лет назад

finished or nearly finished compost can be supplemented with a small amount of sampling mycelium is what Elaine recommends. Chris Trump's IMO1 recipe which is on RU-vid will likely yield more mycorrhizal fungi rather than the 5-6 sampled mushrooms.
