one more order to make to greensmiths for patch ammendments including calcite calcium, k-mag, humic acid, and sulfur. the biota max and pumpkin pro myc fungi have been ordered along with, "thrive"
(https://www.organic-gardening-shop.com/Agorganics/Product_Details.aspx?ProductID=646&ProductName=Vegetable Thrive)
which i think will work nicely with the aerify plus and biota max for feeding the beneficials and adding more beneficials to the mix. the biochar will be coming soon to go along with the 300 lbs of zeolite i will be adding to the 2100 sq ft patch. i am hoping all these new beneficials will find nice homes inside all those microscopic channels in the zeolite and biochar. i already have all my other products i used last year on hand or ordered that i will be using including grandma enggy's foliar fulvic and grandma enggy's soluable humic for drench. also i have azos, co2 or cal carb, 3-18-18 and 0-0-25 from extremepumpkinstore.com either on hand or ordered. then the 15 yards of organimix "black gold" compost is going down with the kelp meal and corn meal sometime in late march along with the above listed patch ammendments from greensmiths. i will also do the early soil activation by heating it with my 6 x 10 feet greenhouses that are put together and stacked side by side in the garage. i will use 2 on the area i will put the shazzydome on after final ammendmending is completed and one on the other single planting spot. this should get the root systems of the cover crop to kick in gear right at planting spots and also kick everything in the soil food web in gear way early like i tried last year.
greenhouses will come out this weekend which is the same as last year. they will be moved while doing ammnending and tilling and then put back into place and one put back in place and the other 2 removed and the shazzydome will go up. it is getting to be serious go time soon.
