So grateful to have found your channel! Thank you both so much for sharing your knowledge and experience, your beautiful garden, your family and faith. The RUclips world needs more Good people like you folks! Greetings from North Texas!
I have had nothing but great results from following the advice from this channel. Since I trust them so much, I feel like I can absolutely continue to use my humate additive knowing it can only help (and likely has). I made a few changes last year based on what they said and my 'very good' garden went to 'great' just that quickly.
Just getting ready to order some seed starting mix from your website and caught this just in time to add to the order. Thank you so much- it seems I can’t go wrong with the garden this year 👍🌟💖
Looking forward to a new gardening season with you all. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. I just ordered a bag of your humates and will add to my tomatoes. QUESTION-Can you add to the planting hole?
Hi Luke and Dan, I really enjoy your videos. Can you guys make a video on how you would amend soil that has a bad compaction issue? The soil is black and very fertile, but my plants take a while to get established. I think the nutrients is locked up because it gets so hard. I am forced to till and would like to get away from that. I mulch heavily, which helps, but still compacts really tight when I try to succession plant. I would love to hear your insight, God bless your next growing season. 🙂
Good question, when you say you're forced to till,that's exactly what is causing your hard soil,everyone wants to plant in nice soft soil without doing the required things to make it that way naturally, I'd recommend you STOP your tilling and copy what nature does,and that is to let plant debris decompose and thereby building humus it will get nice and soft,but don't expect to to happen the first year,I tell people it takes 3 years to start growing a good garden, you can speed that up though by adding a good amount of quality compost and just plant in that without doing any tilling or soil disturbing. After doing that for 2 or 3 yrs you'll have a very productive garden, you can also add ammendments on top of your soil and just scratch them into the top inch or two and then add your good compost and then plant directly into that. Have a blessed day!
I'm in Florida and can't grow anything in this sand, which is full of root knot nematodes. I've tried. So I'm growing in a four raised beds and fabric grow pots from 1 gallon ones up to 30 gallon ones and all in between. Do you know if it's okay to use humans in them and will it help? If it's okay, is there a certain amount you'd use. Say like a teaspoon in a 5 gallon pot? Love your channel, and thanks again a bunch. Allan
🤣🤣🤣 yes humates would be great in containers, you can start off by using 1 to 3 Tbs. In a 5 gallon pot,I'd also recommend getting some beneficial nematodes as well as some crustacean meal which will help with the bad nematodes. May God bless you!
I get so excited every time you post❤❤❤🕊️🕊️💪👏
me too.

This was brand new information to me. Thank you! I am installing raised beds this year and will now plan to use this.
We're glad you found it helpful!

Sorry. Dang autocorrect. Not looking to put humans in my garden. Talking about humates. 😮😅

@GardeningHomesteadingWoodwork thank you so much. I'm gonna give it a go. And double thank you for the suggestion about the nematods. God Bless 🙌
Always love the love….💝💝💝
Can you make it yourself?
No, you can't. Happy gardening! 😊
Can you refer to and actual study done on this......Just claims at this point?
You can just Google humates and there's plenty of articles that verify what we're saying.
