When Hurricane Laura blew thru our city. I was able to get two loads of chips. It has been 10 months. I put them in a long pile. They are already breaking down. They were full of full grown worms. In the deep south. You may have to add chips every year.

Elizabeth says, Black gold, is right! Your soil is remarkable. In a previous video you describe your beets that were so large; I've grown Giant Mangle beets (seeds from Baker Creek). Are your beets for fodder? I used mine as fodder for hens. I don't usually sow pole beans this early (they tend not to produce because our temperatures are over a hundred when they start growing), but my early pole beans are already producing. Today is May 31, 2021. Unfortunately in this type of heat, I have to water some with a sprinkler system. This memorial day wkend has been in the hundreds. I live in far north California Remember, hearing his voice is pretty 'iffy'. He needs a mic for when he turns away, or turns his head, to keep the sound consistent.

I planted this year very similar to how you did it, only I have chickens so I used compost from the chicken run. I have never tried the chicken compost as a starting soil when I plant; we’ll see how it goes. 👍🏾

The "experts" say you can't start seeds in chicken compost, soil dug up from the garden, clay soil, topsoil from the woods, or straight sand. They also say you can't garden on a slope, nor can one grow tomatoes directly in clay soil. The "experts" are indoctrinated by Big Chemical and their minds are blinded by the god of this world (Satan)!

@@leannareece2621 truly. All of my starts and seeds are doing quite well. Note that my chicken compost is screened “soil” from their run area. I give them all the fall leaves, grass clippings, garden waste, and kitchen scraps. There is quite a bit of organic material compared to the chicken waste.

I am really struggling to understand why Paul Gautschi has been steering away from the weed control and water retention properties of non-composted wood chips. He says it's easier to plant in because you don't have to pull away the wood chips. But what about the water? And the weeds? I've watched a ton of videos but I'm still not clear on it.

Paul Gautschi is in Washington State. Normally never gets out of the 80's in the summer. He can get away with using sifted wood chips as a covering. Places where it gets in the high 90's to in the 100's. You have to have the regular wood chips. You can sift the chips, and put in the seed bed, but cover with chips after the seeds come up. The heat in the Deep South will burn up organic matter fast. Has to be covered with the chips to keep the ground cooler. Grass leaves, and straw will not do it in the deep south.

@@sylviavalentin5018 Just saw your question. I do not see why not. I have found woodchips make black soil. Where grass, and hay just works as a mulch. Composted leaf mold works like composted woodchips. Makes good soil. We need a 50/50 ratio of Fungi, and Bacteria to have the healthy soil. If you can get fresh wood chips with green matter mixed in is better. To speed up the process. You can get some liquid molasses mixed in water, and spray on the chips. This will feed the fungi, and the bacteria breaking down the wood chips faster. Has been a year how has the Back to Eden Method worked for you?

Do you simply place the new layer of manure right over your old wood chips? Does this not lead to nitrogen deficiency?

Not at all. The soil under the old wood chips is nutrient rich, that’s where the plants have their roots.

@@LivingLife1128 I started a wood chip garden this year, 3 inches of horse manure with 5 inches of oak wood chips on top. I planted my crop about 1 month ago and am noticing the leaves are much more yellow than normal and the plant growth seems stunted. I am assuming this is the wood chips robbing the nitrogen from the soil. Would you recommend adding a nitrogen rich fertilizer like blood meal.

@@LivingLife1128 Hi! I'm having the same issue with my plants being stunted and turning yellow. This is not my first time doing the back to eden method as I am a big fan, but I am perplexed. I added some manure/humus blend over the woodchips and worked it in, but not having any growth... many of my plants that have been in the soil for weeks havent grown at all. They haven't died off... but they havent grown either. It's like they are just staying the same. It's my brassicas mostly. Do you have any suggestions? This is just so weird as last time I did not have this issue. I'm in Michigan and we are 6a zone for growing. Thank you so much.

Paul gautschi has composted wood chips in his garden because the wood chips decompose in time. But when he screens his soil to add compost to his garden, it is compost that his chickens create and that is a combination of dirt, produce from his garden, and chicken manure. Not screened composted wood chips.

Since fresh wood chips can steal nitrogen from the soil until they start to break down, does it make sense to add a thin layer of blood meal to the top of the soil before adding the wood chips?
