RE: Adding wood ash to the upcoming garlic field

in Homesteading5 days ago

Well, I’m just an enthusiast when it comes to crops, but the other day I saw an article that talked about the benefits of stone powders for agriculture. They contain nutrients like calcium, magnesium, and potassium, and can help improve soil structure. I’m not sure if the cost-benefit ratio is worth it, but it might be worth looking into!

Ah yeah I know what you mean. Something around here used a lot is called Ag-lime.. its just ground up limestone. It has lots of good stuff in it.

I am actually experimenting with it around my solar panels to see if it can help keep the weeds down when used in excess.
