I feel bad, i haven't been watching your videos for a bit now, it's nothing personal towards you, living soil is definitely the way to go, you have a wealth of knowledge and the ability to communicate it as well, i learned soo much stuff from you. i haven't been watching any grow videos tho because i got discouraged, bought a ton of new gear and then life just went to hell, lights and tents still sitting unopened in a big empty room... i'm working on pulling myself together so hopefully i will start growing with you soon! you provide a vital service and i think you're an unsung hero, you deserve more for the quality content you provide. i hope you and the wife are still doing good, you still look the same lol

I love mother nature. I took a 15-year-old seed and placed it outside in a 3 gallon pot with organic soil for a full month before it germinated. I did nothing but let the spring cold/warm weather and natural rain take care of everything.

Can you go into the soil testing how it works, what the sheet says when you get it back and how you use the info? what you add and how much of it? What’s the ideal ranges for cnnbs and how often u might want to test knowing how fast it depletes those added nutrients. Just a rough estimate or maybe something we could all be giving our numbers on to come to a consensus faster… would be cool

I grow my legal 6 outdoor living soil, build a soil method, craft blend and bloom booster. 6 individual mounds over rotting logs. Cover crop. Roughly two pounds per plant 8-9 foot tall each. I watched build a soil from the beginning. Simple economics I spend money on seeds and craft blend, build a bloom and booster. $200 a year at least 10 lbs of quality.

Paw paw had a half acre garden, I helped grow everything with him. He was old school, had a mule to make his rows. Some of my greatest memories with him was in that garden. <br>I remember the massive bags of chemical fertilizers he’d use. 13-13-13, the stuff that’s ban now cause of its explosive applications. I just wish he knew what I know with living soil thanks to you guys.Sadly, chem ferts was the way an that’s all<br>Was known then.

Hello Jeremy! I've been using Blacktuna Colômbia strains, so many different flavours. Very good genetics, strong, fast and full of flavour. Try Uvaz from them, it has a real grape nose, sweet and strong, very gummy and creamy, sugary. They have Toronjaz as well, Grapplez, Cerezaz. All top genetics! I've been using most of your methods since 2020, and I'm doing so great here in Brazil. Organic has a much better taste and flavour! Blacktuna Colômbia is the best South America seed bank! You'll be surprised how good they are, they're right there with Humboldt.

Another good FAQ!👍👍👍👍<br>Maybe slightly too technical for noobs, but should give them the desire to find out more.<br>Humusphere!!! An outstanding book! It brought me back to the practices that I used on my farm that I bought in 90. It may sound a bit corny, but after 26 years of soil building, I did shed a few tears when I closed the sale of the farm. The doctor, that bought it, has really done nothing with it other than let everything go fallow. I passed by there last summer and it was still the greenest in the entire county. <br>Jeff Lowenfels | The Teaming Series Books on Organic Growing is a great source of information !!!<br>And for you old school organic guys, Ruth Stout. My Gradma followed some of her methods.
