You will also discover some good books and magazines that are dedicated to teaching you about growing the best beyond organic crops.

Your lucky to have access to all that material John. One of the reasons I like the USA. Enjoying your ambition to do the best you can and passion for gardening. I have read a lot of organic gardening books etc over the years and your style is the next level. Thanx for sharing.

Hey John, since you aired this video I sent out 2 emails to livebiologics asking quotations for bulk orders for worm castings 18 metric tons to be exact and have yet to even receive 1 reply from them. A company not willing to make a +10,000$ sale isn't a good one.

Great interview thankyou. I particularly was interested to hear about the plants communicating with the microbes in the soil requesting certain types of nutrients.

john you are amazing, literally i am a big fan of your work, i am going to start my aquaponics and just have few questions in mind, i already have fish tank with FH in it and need to know can i use that tank watet and filter media to kick start my aquaponics tank to cycled my system quickly?
Can i have to put my tank directly in sunlight or i can place it under the roof where only light came? -
John was really looking like a predator there

The power of the Fungus! Awesome company and thanks for the video!!! :)

Just watch pearl lite it from alluvium smelters

I wanted to ask you about soil. My yard has very bad soil that if it doesn't get water it cracks. They are like very deep crevices that can swallow gallons and gallons of water. When it is not that dry I can make a hole fill it with water and the water can literally remain there for a few days. I guess the sun eventually vaporizes it. Is there some kind of chemical or what can I do to make the soil plantable?

You can tell this girl likes it dirty; get it John!

John, I'd like to start growing some leafy greens and herbs and was wondering about the risk of purchasing plant starts at big box stores. I would assume those plants are typically not organic. Are they safe to eat?

All the Asians would be getting the compost tea
