Today we amend and plant the awesome 12-bed experiment!
Bed #1: Dave's Fetid Swamp Water
Bed #2: Worm castings
Bed #3: Biochar charged with Dyna-Gro
Bed #4: Dyna-GroBed #5: Urine (diluted 6-1)
Bed #6: 10-10-10
Bed #7: ControlBed #8: Steve Solomon's fertilizer mix
Bed #9: Neptune's Harvest Seaweed and Fish
Bed #10: Lasagna garden
Bed #11: Alfalfa
Bed #12: Rye and peas cover crop
This is a side-by side test for a 2020 fall garden through our 2021 spring gardens to see how different amendments work in the garden. Does biochar work? Is 10-10-10 as good as fish emulsion? Does Dyna-Gro work? Is Urine a good fertilizer? Will Steve Solomon's fertilizer mix beat lasagna gardening? You'll have to stay tuned and find out!

This is a great experiment! And a lot of work. I immediately subscribed. When I started vegetable gardening many years ago, I fell prey to the "supersize" claims of many "experts". After several years I tired of all the bother of using different ingredients and making tea concoctions. I switched to compost only in my raised beds. The only thing I've changed since that time is to do "no-dig". The idea intrigued me because I'm lazy. I dedicated two of my 8 raised beds to no dig and found that (after two seasons), there was no substantial difference using "no-dig" - that's a win for me! All my beds are "no-dig". Over the years I've devoted a single raised bed to "test" a particular idea and compare against my traditional methods. Very similar, but obviously not as ambitious, as your approach. I guess the significant difference between your trials and mine is that I'm starting with a relatively healthy soil. Nonetheless, it will be interesting and educational to see your results. Many thanks for your efforts. Cheers.

@TheRealHonestInquiry 3 года назад

This experiment is badass! Can't wait to see what happens :) Since the biochar has so much surface area for holding not just nutrients but microlife, I would have inoculated and charged it at the same time with a strong worm casting tea, with way less of a risk of burning the plants, unlike with the Dyna-Gro which might end up being too hot of a nutrient pocket! But maybe the sand will drain it all anyway :) So I love that it's in the experiment, however, if you call the 10-10-10 evil then you have to call the Dyna-Gro evil as well; it's basically a watered-down, marked up, 10-10-10 "mineral / salt-based" fertilizer. The same 16 Macro/Micro nutrients recommended in every beginner hydroponics book, as the bare-bones-essentials to keep a plant alive. Anyone done getting ripped off at the hydro store, could go on mbferts.com and buy everything they need to mix a big batch of it at a fraction of the price, like you did with Steve's dry mix :) Anyway the synthetic/salt-based ferts kill microlife in the soil, poison the water etc. so it's not a good long-term solution but glad to see it in the mix, with the sand as your hydroponic medium it will be interesting to see what happens.

@davidthegood 3 года назад

Yeah, I wanted to do a compost tea soak of char too but ran out of space. I don't really think synthetic fertilizers are evil, either. I was being facetious.

@northwoodsmama4973 2 года назад

My clay soil appears to do that yearly to my feeble attempts to amend it. I'm finally going to shut down the bad areas and installing a heiglkultur bed with some of the amendments I saw you do in your Prima Terra video. Last year I laid a generous covering of alpaca manure, six inches of mulch on rows and wood chips three to four inches thick between rows and this year, I'll be repeating this process. I'm hoping all of my hard work is going to come to fruition this spring!

@davidthegood 2 года назад

@davidthegood 3 года назад

@ANoteToSelf 3 года назад

I have hard, rocky clay that I till and amend every year and nothing helps. This year, I gave up and let all the weeds grow. Finally, I soaked the whole thing, pulled and chopped the weeds, tilled it up, and threw the weeds back on top for mulch. The bed was for watermelons, squash, and pumpkins and they’re growing so well! I know it’s not the best solution, but when it’s feast or famine, it’s worth a try.

@garethbaus5471 3 года назад

This seems like something that would be even more interesting if it continues for at least 5 years using the same amendments in the same spots so you get a better idea of what the long term results are. Also on the urine, even diluted 6 to one it is still fairly high in nitrogen so be careful with the application.

My soil is very silty with little organic material. I think the leaf mulch and the biochar will make a big difference. Beet pellets should also do well because of all the sugar. Thank you for sharing your experiment.

The lasagna bed seems to have a lot more diversity, but I'm wondering if it will take longer for materials to break down than some of the others-- and whether that holds it back, even with pockets of compost.

I predict lasagna bed will win. It is less an amendment of the existing sand than a full replacement with superior material. Moreover it is an engineered membrane, whereas the others are loose mixes. I predict second place will be biochar. I'm pulling for the Solomon mix, but I fear much of those goodies will wash out of the bare sand. But Solomon mix + biochar would crush it, no question! If only you had one spare bed for a thirteenth trial.

@@davidthegood I should have realized that, apologies, and apparently did not pay enough attention to the video! Will look forward to results!

Are you now located in Baldwin County, Alabama? Lots of gardeners in the Pensacola area. Thanks for all the information over the years as well as the present.

Thank you for doing this! I await the results as I have just put garden plots into rockhard limestone here in northeastern Nevada. At least one of your amendments should work here. Not only that, but you are helping those of us going through garden withdrawal. [It's going to be 1 F tonight...]

Yikes. Too cold! What a fascinating growing environment, though.
