Dr. Elaine rocks! She has inspired me to attend Penn State to become a biologist and begin a second career using her premise of not treating soil like dirt.
This video make me very happy about my, no till backyard garden. I have never had formal training but having learnt through observation and intuition from a young age, i observed my parents and i observed how the plants responded. Plants have a language too, they communicate through 'predictable response", they tell you exactly how they are doing and what you are doing right or wrong. Adding chemicals has never felt right so i didnt do it, Iv always added life to my garden, all sorts of life that is beneficial to growth of all organisms in the soil. I'm just the delivery man, the rest of the living things that make use of my garden are the TRUE workers, my garden is like a HUGE multi-cellular organism (thats the way i think of it anyway) and its systems are all in tip top condition :D No chemicals needed or wanted.
Elaine Ingham is my hero! I am taking her introductory course and love it. I wish this had been taught when I was getting my BS and MS in the late 1980s. It is a whole different and healthy world when you get away from Big Ag and Big Corp in general.
Not a skeptic amongst you. I’m trying some of her methods in my garden (deep, aerated holes with compost and mulch mixed into my soil ). I will let you know.
great vid , would love to find the list of low growing perennials for Australia that she mentioned @ 41:25 though , there is a list on the US SFI site but not on the SFI Australia site , anyone seen the Australian list/research or is it like most things here , you pay then you know , open source is a bit of a foreign language in Oz
Phil and Elaine, thank you for the video. I am new to gardening and I'm trying to understand it all. What books or sources do you recommend in building a balanced soil mixture? Right now I am testing my first raised garden and I am experimenting with sifted native soil, fruit/vegetable food scraps, cow manure, ground leaves and straw. There is a lot of conflicting advice out there so I decided to start on my own and test however in order to test I need to find reliable ways to test my soil over the course of my project. Any advice or if you could point me in the right direction that would be nice.
First Last - Why in the world sift the native soil?! Remove rocks, boulders, etc. if they're in the way. OK, that makes all sense, but other than that. I fail to see the relevance of such action. ;-) Cheers
Thanks Elaine for sharing so much - it was an education with the very best of motives: the survival of this planets life forms which would include ourselves - the highest benevolence. So please let me share something with you. Our gut microbiome changes its population according to what food we eat and it seems that eating meat and consuming dairy encourages the dominance of "the bad guys". Bad in that the immune system is seriously compromised at our first line of defense - in the gut itself - when consumed regularly. It leads to the occurring of a plethora of auto-immune diseases. There are of course only three major food types: carbohydrates, protein and fats. As a species we are evolved to seek our energy from carbohydrates; there are next to none in animals. Although we can derive energy from protein (amino acids), an emergency contingency only, this happens by anaerobic metabolisation. The process of ketosis releases so much toxin that if pursued as a preferred method of energy provisioning will be responsible for causing ill-health and eventually organ failure. Its not so much the amount that you eat but that it be proportioned, roughly, around the numbers 80.10.10 (80% carbohydrate) and that your diet not include any animal proteins or fats (they are responsible for causing the major killer diseases). The best nutritionists are biochemists (like T. Colin Campbell - seek him out). Once again a big thank you to the Conscious Society and Elaine for broadcasting their conversation.
Are you sure that the liquid dropping off from the compost (compost leachate) is full of beneficial bacteria? I have the impression that compost leachate is composed essentially by fulvic and humic acids. On top, I ha read that the majority of the bacteria in compost liquid are the anaerobic bacteria that develop in the fermentation occurring while composting (even if we attempt to minimalized the fermentation).In this case, it there is risk that it is pathogenic bacteria so it is advice to not spread it on your vegetable garden.... Do you have an opinion and an advice whether to apply compost leachate directly on vegetable garden or not? Thank you
That's why it is very important to aerate your compost pile once a while: move it to another container/place every since. That's gooood ;-) (as far as I understood)
Were going to run out of food because the major "food" crops are devoid of nutrition. Sugar can, wheat, rice, canola etc... we eat for nutrition not calories.
They want us UNHEALTHY!! Big buss!! For food companys and medical industry!! Fast!! eat LITE at NITE!! its like shampoo rinse repet11 consume! consume! consume! Till there is NOTHING left for our grandkids!!! NO flu shots !! NO doctors!! And im almost 60!!! Exercise at home!! No poison for our minds as well!!! UGLY TOXIC WORLD!! THANKS TO CREEPS!!
Yet the A.M.A is w FD.A to feed us GARBAGE on every corner And on every shelf!!SUGARY GARBAGE!!!SUGAR IS TOXIC!!!POISON!!!!!EVERY thing we eat, we grow!!!! NO MONSANTO!!!! NO HOLLYWOOD!!!CREEPS!!!DRUG DEALERS!!!!!!!! Sorry.

Awesome video! Every gardener and farmer needs to listen to her.

Simply brilliant! Elaine is an inspiration.

We need this lovely lady to run the world ....
No: we just need this lovely lady to show us how we can run the world...
Stick it in the dirt!
WHAT WORLD!!!!! THE irriversably DAMAGED world??CHRIST will take care of EVERYTHING soon enough! ITS OVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is one of the most important interviews ever made!
Thank you. I just have started to watch some videos about how to take care for the soil. I will keep going to watch more. Wonderful.
I appreciate your message, and I really like your curtains, too!
Thank you Dr Elaine for sharing this message. It is so beneficial and eye opening for me to take good care of soil...
Dr. Ingham, is a rock star.
Thank you Both for this education.
Another excellent video Phil ,Thanks mate.
thank you , your awesome Elaine !!!
Wonderful video! Thanks!
Thank you Dr. I have learn alot from you..feeling proud to meet a humain like you....
Not a skeptic amongst you. I’m trying some of her methods in my garden (deep, aerated holes with compost and mulch mixed into my soil ). I will let you know.
Any results? Are you happy with her methods?
great vid , would love to find the list of low growing perennials for Australia that she mentioned @ 41:25 though , there is a list on the US SFI site but not on the SFI Australia site , anyone seen the Australian list/research or is it like most things here , you pay then you know , open source is a bit of a foreign language in Oz
You might want to ask Geoff Lawton about low growing perennials...
thanks very mush Ray Purse , i will look him up , cheers mate

I feel now ,how far we r from the normal natural life !!
What is the difference between tilling the soil and turning your compost?
Two completely different things. Compost is airated when turned while soil organisms is killed when the soil is turned.
How long do you have to airate worm tea before its aerobic and good to use ?
Are you sure that the liquid dropping off from the compost (compost leachate) is full of beneficial bacteria? I have the impression that compost leachate is composed essentially by fulvic and humic acids.

Do you have an opinion and an advice whether to apply compost leachate directly on vegetable garden or not? Thank you
sorry but you got this all wrong...keep every thing aerobic and only the good guys thrive
That's why it is very important to aerate your compost pile once a while: move it to another container/place every since. That's gooood ;-) (as far as I understood)
She should go on Joe Rogan's Podcast
It's the infrared gun you refer to similar to the ndvi imaging process?
what should not go into compost
Meats, cheeses, bones.
wait so even sand has nitrogen? how do i tap into that?
Were going to run out of food because the major "food" crops are devoid of nutrition. Sugar can, wheat, rice, canola etc... we eat for nutrition not calories.
B12 is in that SOIL. eat some!!! 16:00
They want us UNHEALTHY!! Big buss!! For food companys and medical industry!! Fast!! eat LITE at NITE!! its like shampoo rinse repet11 consume! consume! consume!

yes on point
I get really bothered when she says cakes and cookies for some reason
Let's see if they're 'willing to lose everything' ..
Yet the A.M.A is w FD.A to feed us GARBAGE on every corner And on every shelf!!SUGARY GARBAGE!!!SUGAR IS TOXIC!!!POISON!!!!!EVERY thing we eat, we grow!!!! NO MONSANTO!!!! NO HOLLYWOOD!!!CREEPS!!!DRUG DEALERS!!!!!!!! Sorry.
COP23, *are you listening* ??!? Especially to the last few minutes?
NO not compost, properly grazing on billion of hectares, small scale compost farmers cant change much
Very knowledgeable she is but I don't buy the climate change bs.
