Unlock the power of organic soil biology! Great soil health tips from Dan! His knowledge of soil biology, nutrients and amendments will help you understand how to have the best organic garden soil preparation possible! Make the your soil the best it can be by focusing on feeding the soil microbial biology, instead of feeding your plants. The reason this works best is because the soil microbes themselves are what actually feeds your plant's root system through mycorrhizal symbiosis!

The whole plant can be used in stir frys, the stems can be used like slaw after being chopped. Mine are just now starting to head but don't look like they'll be near this big.

I'm dying of envy. My broccoli seemed to be ravaged in my greenhouse when they were seedlings, I planted some out but had heart surgery so I've been slowed way down this year, it's depressing but I love watching you success!

Wow oh for a dad like you how much would I have learnt growing by your side hopefully as much as those broccoli 😊😊Never mind never too old to learn. I had a good one but not a gardener (mum was)an Air Force man though very good fixing my bike when home and taught me to change a UK plug. I will go back over the earlier video and refresh again on which amendments. I have prepared one raised bed for spring tomatoes following your advice. Winter has arrived so slowing down out there. Thanks again for everything.

My broccoli grew twice as high as yours but had the smallest heads.... need to watch your video on what to do with the soil.

@GardeningHomesteadingWoodwork Ай бұрын

Whoa! You mean they were over 4 feet tall? You had too much nitrogen in your soil,I find that is the most common mistake that gardeners make,they kill their plants with kindness and wonder why things didn't produce in comparison to how big their plants were! Have a wonderful gardening season!

The soil preparation and type of strawberry plants to use for best results.

You'll want slightly acidic soil so you could add fir bark fines or sulfur granules. We grow the day neutral called Albion which is a large sweet firm strawberry. Blessings to you!

Broccoli is my least favorite plant to grow because it takes up so much space but I recently discovered Chinese Broccoli or Yad Foh and can't get enough of it. You eat the stem, leaves and the small crown.

So do you have to uncover it at all from the time you plant it? I just uncovered my cabbage because I thought maybe it needed a visit from pollinators but IDK.

No I don't uncover at all,there's nothing to pollinate with broccoli or caulk or cabbage. Blessings to you and thanks for watching!
