Love John, but this guy uses soooo many products in his garden. Seems so excessive to me and so unnecessarily expensive. But I assume trying all these products are part of the fun for him. So all the more power to him and his methods.

That just looks like too much work. Putting that much fertilizer doesn't seem sustainable, also.

Thanks for showing us how you plant and what you add to soil. You grow a lot in your back yard, not to mention the 2lbs a day of greens you eat:)
That was a great recovery story and how you keep healthy, you don't just take prescription pills that actually kill hundreds of thousands every year. I am taking responsibility for my own heath and learning to garden and eat wild plants also as they have far more nutrients than any gardener can grow. Do you grow any "weeds" in your garden? Keeping our immune system up is a rewarding experience and one that I enjoy focusing on, most days, lol. Sorry but we don't buy any fertilizers as we 3 types of manures we add every year; sheep/cow and chicken along with composted hay and so far after 4 years the garden is doing well. But hey, if anything goes awry, I know who to call:)

What's your opinion on utilizing pure shilajit/fulvic acid to add some of those trace minerals for foliar & soil drench? Of course tested, and in it's natural resinous form. I greatly appreciate the immense wealth of knowledge you put forth and archive for all. My only regret is not having looked into this sooner. Chairs!

John,
You may have already said it, but after watching twice i must have missed it, what is the link to the WESTERN BIO TECH company, I have googled it but am not able to locate that company. Also, what is the name of the pack you bought or did you put together all of those items off of a list of options to procure?
I scrapped out the garden that was here when I bought the house and am putting in a brand new raised bed garden and want to start off right and use some of the methods you have been showing on your videos.
thanks
Chris

I have question that I've overlooked some else asking or it's never been asked. How do you enrich your soil every year at planting time without taking out some of the soil in the existing beds? I just can't figure out how you can keeping adding without overloading your raised beds! At some point wouldn't you have to take out some soil before adding more, and when you do that what should you do with what's been removed, can it still be used somewhere else? Please help this confused home gardener!

Sharon Mcanespy Hi Sharon, I don't know if John can answer this question or not (too many comments and questions) in my experience you don't remove any soil as everything is consumed by it. The only time you may remove soil when it's contaminated or you just want to replace the rocks or other hard surfaces. My beds in a year sank almost 2 inches are added with horse manure, fall leaves and wood chips. If you remove any good soil just use it in the yard or raise the level if your beds. Always mix native soil with new amendments (native soil = native bugs and microbes)
Soil leaches, washes away, consumed by plants and further breaks down over time.

Hello john i actually wanted to ask,and i see you just talked about it in the comments. Why dont you ever seed start? Is it a time thing and that you want to rather focus on growing than spending all the time on seed starts?
