    Where and how can I determine the effects on soil that different tree leaves and mulch will have on my soil? I understand that pine tree needles are generally acidic, but I don't know about other species. I am working to improve my rather poor soil which doesn't hold water or grow grass well. It is technically a sandy loam, but is deficient in organic matter. Most land near me is long-abused conventional farm land where grains and corn are grown in the western US.

    • @patricklodgewilliams
      @patricklodgewilliams 2 года назад +4

      I know this is 4 years too late, but most optical microscopes need a drop of lens oil on top of the slide cover to use the x400 objective. You should then be able to get the objective so it is just touching the oil droplet, but not the slide cover. Hopefully this will get everything into focus!

    Speaking for myself, a vegan, that is the nastiest looking stuff you made with those wonderful healthy greens, besides killing all of the active enzymes by boiling a now only 'once delicious' raw green juice, but then you separated it from some of its phytonutrients and health properties by removing the liquid. To each their own I guess. It was like watching someone stomping on chocolate ice cream into the dirt, then cooking it, and then calling it food, lol

    • @vegannursepractitioner9629
      @vegannursepractitioner9629 6 лет назад +2

      I've never heard of the hundreds of different phytonutrients in natural grasses and greens harming animals since greens is what they naturally built to eat.
      I have read, that if animals are given mostly commercial feeds and do not get a good supply of daily natural grasses and greens they will not have the proper probiotics in their intestines anymore to digest some heavier macro-nutrients that are in the fresh wild foods they would have no problems with, the high concentration of certain macro nutrients such as nitrogen, which would not necessarily be destroyed with cooking, the cooking would however destroy the enzymes needed to help digest it. In a natural world they would have no problem, but in an unnatural world such as a farm, to give them in a sudden large dose may overwhelm their ability to digest and cause bloat which if not treated in time could cause death. I have known of farmer losing a herd of sheep due to them getting into the alfalfa shed causing bloat which twisted their intestines and they all died, where as a wild sheep would not have had an issue as their diets would have been varied and natural and ate alfalfa off and on in the mix of greens they normally ate roaming the countryside.
      But, I am a human clinician, not a farm animal veterinarian, so this is my humble opinion in which you may choose to glean from. It is much like a avid meateater, suddenly deciding to eat a day of fruits and veggies without preparation of slowly moving into this natural high fiber diet, well, long ago, his eating of mainly meat caused the natural probiotics for fiber to starve. It usually takes an avid meateater a week or two of building up slowly on fruits and veggies to build up their natural probiotics to digest their natural foods without getting bloat or other GI distress, anyway, not sure if you are still reading, so good luck
