Excellent
Excellent speaker and fascinating education on how to maintain healthy soil. Particularly helpful to understand the science behind why no-till farming works better and is healthier for the soil. Thank you!
Im from Oklahoma and was looking for OSU (OklahomaState U). So glad I stumbled across your talk! Excellent! Thanks
Really great stuff!
Hello
Thank you for the video on Gardening in Clay Soil. The only aspect I have a problem with is on a new planting to add 2-3 inches of compost initially.
I am from the East coast and find the soil in Jacksonville Oregon rock hard. In your soil test at end of your video you did not include a one time tilling with compost amendment.
Adding 2-3 inches of compost provides a short-term solution because organic matters break down over time. As to tilling in compost amendment, puncturing the soil surface with a spading fork and allow organisms to help with mixing is also an option. It all depends on how quickly you want results.
I have clay. I want cherry trees. Digging causes water puddle. Someone suggested sandy loam plus humus as a raised mound on top of clay ground, no dig.
What do you think?
You will never know if you don't try.
@@AleyCZ I raised them 1 foot above ground and mixed and with clay. It worked.
@@edjo3430I’m thinking of doing the same
Thanks i am from kashmir /India/
Nobody cares.
Whats a ped? Whats a rut?
I had to google "ped" too. Its not a acronym, its literally "the small chunk of soil that's stuck together by all of this process"

The recommendation seems contradictory. If the soil is covered with mulch, after a few years the organic content of the soil will exceed the recommended 5 per cent.
The difference in applying it to the top is that it breaks down slowly rather than the clay having to do this without enough oxygen.
