Do Not Make This Gardening Mistake | Manure is No Longer Safe

- Before you add any manure to your garden, watch this video. Manure, the once gold standard for garden fertilizer, is no longer safe. Much of today’s manure is riddled with persistent herbicides such as Grazon. You MUST test manure before adding it to your garden. Learn from my mistake so you don’t make it yourself.

This is the second video I've seen addressing the exact same painful experience
It’s becoming more pervasive 😢
It's not just the manure that is poisoned. It is the STRAW that is poisoned too.
I have 4 bales sitting outside since last October. It STILL has not broken down and when I plant things, they either grow for a few weeks then die or not sprout at all.
The big box stores either don't know or REFUSE to tell you the source of their products.
Gosh. I’ve heard so many people with the same story. We have to be investigators now of everything we bring on our farms/gardens.
@@DI-Ry Best to grow your own straw. That way you know what you got.
I read that grazon lasts up to THREE YEARS....
Roundup can last from a few weeks to a whopping ELEVEN YEARS.
Since carrots are not broad leaf, they should grow in that straw, right?
Heck NO they won't.
Not even sprout.
Stuck using chemical fertilizers for the time being... And regular soil.
Mannn. That’s so long. You’re right, better to just grow your own.

@@DI-Ryexactly. Closed loop communities are the way.
Great advice
I do not trust bagged either, manure or compost !
Also bulk compost is derived from municipal yard waste , I have seen what ignorant people have put on their garden/yards
Grazon is related to Agent Orange used in the vietnam war.
Eeek!
Brought to you by the fine folks at Dow Chemical. The same people that gave us Napalm.
😂
Agent Orange too I think
That is correct.@@markskibo5159
Mushrooms are successfully cleaning up contaminated land. I'm not sure about grazon, but may be worth looking into it.
Super helpful to know! Thank you for sharing!
So Grazon doesn't poison monocots (grass) which includes onions, garlic, corn, and palm trees. If I was trying to pull it out of the area, I would plant a bunch of corn and burn as opposed to compost the stalks. I feel for you. Grazon is pure evil.@@DI-Ry
I have stopped altogether using manure in my garden, even amino pyralid is not very used here in Norway. I have heard that a good hot composting will break down the chemical, but with the amount you got it would be hard work getting it hot.
That’s a good strategy. I agree; manure is no longer safe for gardens which is such a bummer!
Hemp also cleans land.
Good to know!
I’m sure it does. Hemp is wonderful for lots of things. But please tell where to find hemp seeds. Pretty sure it government regulated and you’d have to get a permit or lis license to purchase the seed and grow it.
@@DI-Ryhemp seeds are sold everywhere and are legal and the permits are cheap if ya can get one
I live in Ocala and get free manure from my neighbor. I have been using it heavily for 8 years and my food forest is thriving. Her hay is shipped in from Idaho. I have never noticed a problem with my plants. Perhaps she gets her hay from an organic grower.
I’m the 38th subscriber your really good at your videos I can’t wait to learn from your videos! Thank you for your information!
Thank you so much for the kind words!
Good to know, especially before I start growing here in Florida. Thanks.
Happy to help anyone through my experience!
Black Cow is organic in Florida, no Trichlopyr.
Plant corn in your grazon area. 2 years should remove the Grazon.
Wow!!!
I knowww
Just gotta test each load of manure thoroughly with the beans before application to your earth.
Exactly!
Another unsuspecting victim of aminopyralid damage. 😢 Spread the word that most manure is not safe anymore!
Such a bummer! Manure used to be the gold standard 😢
You need to work on balancing the sound on your vids man. Other than that, good job.
Thank you brother! Working on this issue now. I appreciate the feedback
Im using fish fertilizer from now on
Blackcow killed all of my garden 2 years ago. To this day I still can't grow a green bean. Box store manure is poison.
I experienced the same thing ... it all but killed my tomatoes, peppers, and cucumbers.
Dude grazing and others chems like, it's used on all veggies.
Back your claim up with scientific analysis
Pretty easy to do. Send a sample to a University or county extension office to be tested for herbicides. I did it. Sent a sample to University of Georgia and it came back positive with herbicides.
What an awful lesson , blame the food industry.
😢
Not all manure is bad. Title should be changed.
Not a very scientific experiment.
BRO. YOUR MULCK IS GROWING AROUND YOUR GARDEN.LET THE GRASS GROW AN INCH OR TWO CUTT,DRY AND USE THAT.WHAT DO YOU THINK HAY IS? GRASS IS THE MOST WASTED RESOURCE ON THE PLANET
Good point!
All hay for all animals rabbits too have it, so does a fruit and veg and just about all cereals and all food like that, we all have it inside us whether u like it not
NAH..JUST THE FAT CIDIOTS THAT DONT COLLECT THEIR OWN SEEDS AND GROW THEIR OWN FOOD.
Very true
