This is probably one of the most important videos for gardeners today! I'm not being sarcastic, the global increase in the garden market is a huge money trap for many and will only get worse. Thank you for keeping it real, and I hope many see this and stay aware of garden myths that may be harming their wallets, the environment and their garden.

Ive gotten a reputation as a "mean spirited" guy in my local garden group because I share your videos - like this one.<br>People get downright angry at me for attacking the myths theyve held to for so long.

I've been gardening for over 50 years and just learnt something new regarding fertilizers and tomato myths, also loved the relaxed way our host delivered his information.

The saying <br>"Its easier to lie to someone than convince them they've been lied to." Is very appropriate here.

Thank God. For the past 10 years, I have been using compost tea, compost extracts, vermicompost, biofertilizers, carbon-based fertilizers, and biostimulants.<br>I am deeply grateful to Elaine Ingham, Matt Powers, John Kempf, and Bill Mollison for their knowledge and inspiration.<br>Not once have I relied on synthetic fertilizers or chemical poisons such as herbicides, pesticides, or fungicides.<br>And the results speak for themselves: year after year, my farm continues to become more fertile, with increasing soil organic matter, healthier soil biology, and high yields with less and less external input

It would be nice to hear a video on how pH in soil can affect nutrient availability and why we might get chlorosis on plants. Is it iron deficiency in the soil, iron in-availability due to pH? How to deal with chlorosis in the garden? Thanks!!

Bloom boosters do work. I've tested this myself numerous times. You can literally trigger a plant into blooming with them. You only need 1 application and within 2 weeks, your plant will start blooming profusely. You can test this by having 2 of the same plant growing in the same spot, with the same conditions. Give one the bloom booster and give the other plant your normal fertilizer. the plant given the bloom booster will start to flower. This might not work on every plant but I know for a fact this works on citrus, tomatoes and peppers. Pepper plants are always blooming but the bloom booster will give you more blooms. I live in Florida zone 9B where I can grow 365 days a year. I have tons of time to test stuff like this.
