    AMAZING! I've been getting lots of synchronicities recently.. I love it when you said the soil and our body are one.
    I learnt recently learned about fulvic acid.
    Its natural and would be in our water supply and can be given to babies.
    Fulvic acid is in the soil, infact it's extracted from roots of dynamic accumulators. The soil is made up of every single element on the periodic table and so are we.
    Very much like soil, something interesting you might like, if you look take a fruit we see it's made of h20 + periodic table (salts/minerals) + microbes
    I remember it as water dirt and bugs
    If you look at the percentage of salts on an apple skin for example it's the same percentage as our skin of the human body. I think it's the same with microbes and water

    • @garthwunsch
      @garthwunsch Год назад

      Comfrey is great. It’s not invasive if you plant the sterile Bocking 14 Strain. If you plant the regular seed producing variety, you will shortly regret it because it’s terribly invasive. The only way to organically kill it is to starve the root by cutting off every green shoot as soon as they appear. The non sterile variety grows wild near my home, so I just harvest those leaves several times a season, but before they’re in flower.
      Not sure about it being illegal in Canada. My pharmacist friend uses it to make a very effective healing ointment. She just can’t label it as a pharmaceutical.
      I’m in Ontario… I may have enough Bocking 14 to sell a bit next spring… I bought mine a year ago and it’s really thriving in my healthy soil.

    All places used REPEATEDLY to grow food and flowers need fertilizer. I love the natural fertilizers on this channel.
    1. Different plants absorb different nutrients from the soil. This is why crops are rotated. Those nutrients will automatically replenish every few years if the soil is healthy. Just not in one year. So you rotate different plants that absorb different nutrients.
    2. Most normal suburban gardens are small and repeatedly used for the same crops year to year so become "Nutrient Deficient". You will need to fertilize yearly or bi-yearly.
    3. Example. If you grow Tomatoes in the same spot yearly you need to return the nutrients the tomatoes took from the soil by composting them back in. Most of us need to fertilize and the Viking has the best fertilizer recipes on You Tube.

    • @garthwunsch
      @garthwunsch Год назад

      Dr. ingham, and JADAM farming teach that we should not rotate crops. As Mr. Cho says, the best fertilizer for peppers is peppers and the best fertilizer for tomatoes is tomatoes… including the diseased plants. And Nate correctly points out that all disease organisms are present in the soil anyway, so we grow healthy plants that are able to suppress the pathogens. Even if I wanted to rotate my garden crops, at 1200 sq ft my garden is simply too small.

    • @gardenlikeaviking
      @gardenlikeaviking  Год назад +4

      yes all three of your points are valid, especially the part about the Viking having the best fertilizer recipes! lol... I'll do some videos this winter about why I do not feel crop rotation is necessary in the home garden... industrial ag yes but not for us growing our own food... and actually this video is all about "fertilization" but I was trying to drive home the point that we must not become over reliant on the liquid fertilizers... because that is something I am seeing from people focusing too much on the liquid supplementation and not enough on the base nutrition... thank you for your input my friend

    Thanks for the vid! I would love to see a video on home-grown leaf mold. I'm still struggling figuring out where to get my hands on wild leaf mold. It's mostly just farmland around me. I don't get out much, so planning a trip to the nearest national park, and hoping I'll be able to find what I'm looking for, just feels overwhelming. It's been a big enough barrier to keep me from getting hands-on practice on what you share in a lot of your videos. I've seen you mention making your own at home with a tarp, but I'm having the same issue finding wild grasses. Have you experimented with gathering IMO cultures using half-cooked rice? That seems a bit more accessible to me, but I'm sure it's not a perfect substitute.

      IMO is a great way to inoculate anything(just made some charcoal and will start to inoculate it with organisms). If you have trouble with mobility you can gather barks or cut grass and gather your IMO's from the pile you bring home( just leave it in a heaped pile and the mycelium will transfer to the rice you put in a stocking). Grass is great for fungal growth( just leave it in a pile and nature does the rest).

      Fallen leaves will naturally decay. We have massive apple, fig, mulberry and grapevines and get lots of leaves. You can rake them together as they fall and put in a pile when they start dropping, or leave them until the trees are bare, then rake and put on your beds, at which stage they will look a lot like compost. Use like you would any compost, as a mulch or dig it in. It's great for making potato beds

      Put leaves in plastic bags (I know… plastic!!!)! Moisten, and leave alone for one year in the shade… leaf mold! You can also leave the leaves in the paper bags that folks put at roadside. Again, moisten them a bit, and pile up in a corner of the yard. By spring, lots of the bottom bags will be totally disintegrated into great leaf mold.
      I have a shady 10 x 10’ area in the back of my yard where I’m layering leaves, weeds, manure, beer mash, grape must, shavings etc. I keep it moist and covered with a tarp in summer. Over winter it will be totally covered with bags of leaves. Even in zone 4 where it often hits -30° C, there will be no frost in the pile, but decomposition will carry on at a hectic pace. by spring it will be mostly disintegrated for use in my potting mix… or anywhere else I need it.

    • @trkstatrksta8410
      @trkstatrksta8410 Год назад

      Micro greens are just normal plants that are eaten at the very early stage of sprouting. For example, if you sprout broccoli seeds and eat them when they are two inches high, they are called microgreens. You just cut them with scissors just above soil level. You can do the same with rocket, radish, cauliflower and others of the cabbage family, known as brassicas. Of course you plant them rather thickly in a tray of potting soil or you can sprout them by just putting the seed in a clean jar, soak for a few hours, drain, and keep rinsing and draining until they are about a half inch long. Google info on sprouts and microgreens. But you can't do that with the solanum family which are poisonous, such as tomato, eggplant, chilli. Do your research and don't poison yourself.

    • @gardenlikeaviking
      @gardenlikeaviking  Год назад

      the seeds themselves will look the same but typically seeds are bred specifically for microgreens so they will sprout with regularity and are not designed to grow into a full size plant... so the microgreens seeds are dramatically cheaper than regular garden seeds pound for pound...

    This is my 2nd year gardening. Last year I had zero issues with pests. I'm not sure exactly why but I am now plagued with every pest possible. I unfortunately caved and sprayed the bad stuff. After reading, researching- I think my soil is complete crap plus I brought in 2 truck loads of soil from an outside nursery. My question is- since my current plants have been sprayed should I pull them or do you think it is safe to move forward with the method shown in this video?
