Product Description
Price is for 1 book.
Revitalize your garden-and go beyond compost-by making your own biologically diverse inoculants and mineral-rich amendments using leaf mold, weeds, eggshells, bones, and other materials available for little or no cost!
In The Regenerative Grower's Guide to Garden Amendments, experimental gardener and author Nigel Palmer provides practical, detailed instructions that are accessible to every grower who wants to achieve a truly sustainable garden ecosystem-all while enjoying better results at a fraction of the cost of commercial fertilizer products. These recipes go beyond fertilizer replacement, resulting in greater soil biological activity and mineral availability. They also increase pest and disease resistance, yields, and nutrient density.
Recipes include:
Extracting nutrients from plant residues using simple rainwater techniques
Extracting minerals from bones and shells using vinegar
Fermenting plant juices and fish
Culturing indigenous microorganisms (IMO)
Inspired by the work of many innovative traditional agricultural pioneers, especially Cho Ju-Young (founder of the Korean Natural Farming method), The Regenerative Grower's Guide to Garden Amendments also includes a primer on plant-soil interaction, instructions for conducting a soil test, and guidance on compost, cover cropping, mulching, measuring the quality of fruits and vegetables using a refractometer, and other aspects of sustainable gardening-making it a must-have resource for any serious grower.
Pages: 224 pages
Size: 6 x 9 inch

This book is really informative with potentially increasing the health and yield of your plants. I am excited to try some of the organic foliar sprays using simple "weeds" and plants to make them like nettle, dandelion, comfrey etc. He has you add leaf mold to the weeds and water to help digest it. They are pretty simple recipes and don't include a lot of bought ingredients so I liked that. He also has you use plant "discards" to make amendments for next year. I plan on treating some of my garden to the foliar sprays and drenching and not treating other parts to compare. Lots of useful information in the book and am very glad I purchased it!
