Glen's Organic Starter Fertilizer: Boosting Seed Germination and Soil Health #regenerativefarming
Glen Rabenberg takes us through his proven approach to starter fertilizers. Filmed at R Organic Farms, Glen emphasizes the importance of feeding not just the plants but also the soil and seeds, using a range of natural ingredients for a starter fertilizer that includes just grams of his GSR Calcium, organic sugar, liquid fish fertilizer, micronized soft rock phosphate, biological organisms, and molasses.
Glen explains how his unique, liquid blend addresses deficiencies in carbon, oxygen, hydrogen, and other essential nutrients, promoting strong, uniform seed germination and early plant growth. His method not only enhances plant health but also creates conditions unfavorable for weeds.

    Been no-tilling for years , using GMO seed . The residue breaks down !!! i do agree it breaks down slower, and there are plenty of earthworms in the soil ! Ever had a seed less grape , not natural, most all your food has been genetically modified in some sort of way !! Weeds , insects are always modifying, they change to exist.

  • @fisherman_of_navarone

    When I compare a soil test buying these diagnostic tools is a good idea.

  • @kaleidoscope8743
    @kaleidoscope8743 Před dnem

    This is how we farmed in 60s/70s. We weeded only in the beginning to let the plants get established. Weeds bring nutrients to soil, aerate the soil, put calcium into upper layers, especially Dandelions and Queen Ann's Lace. And weeds help hold moisture and shade in soil by trapping water that condenses on low thick broad leaves. That creates natural drip irrigation. We farmed this way for years. Lots of yield!

  • @maddydog1234
    @maddydog1234 Před dnem

    What is your soil calcium level like? Calcium will help loosen the soil and make more space for oxygen and water infiltration.

    the dance within your soil is incredibly complex. nobody knows all the steps. unless you wanna be a dork, partner up with nature every time.

  • @laquincystovall9173

    This is my second year with a small garden. We bought a tiller to help with our hard red clay. No way to go no till on this ground unless you use raised beds. There's a big cost there. My plan was to go no till in a few years after we've ammended our soil enough. So far we cannot dig or even weed without finding huge earthworms. It's also the best drainage we've ever had. Has me rethinking the no till movement.

  • @lynnmac6494
    @lynnmac6494 Před 4 dny

    My crop field tested high in calcium, but we till when needed. That could be the difference.

    • @egay86292
      @egay86292 Před 4 dny

      start with functional pH compared to ideal. if your soil pH has any wiggle room from your ideal crop then dolomite if you can get away with higher pH and epsom if you can get away with lower. also get into biochar buffering. it's long-term stupid-proofing.

    Regenerative farming is strictly small scale farming, it’s attractive to homesteaders and farms typically under 100 acres. It’s just a trendy environmental movement created by non farmers and like all trends will be replaced with something else.

  • @kurtisb100
    @kurtisb100 Před 6 dny

    Do you have some videos on methods to accomplish these parameters for microbial activity? Let’s say my soil compaction is too high; what do I do about that? Or my EC is too high, what then?

  • @DylanStJohn
    @DylanStJohn Před 6 dny

    Several of these videos cover the same topics, and land at “here’s the things you want to see in your soil for it to be healthy.” But how do you actually tackle compaction, ph issues, and poor conductivity?

  • @iamdanielrsv1204

    I have so high magnesium and so high nitrogen too, lower Cl, Potassium and Silicone. Some parts on my field the corn is weak somewhere higher than me more than 190cm tall. Sowed in April 20. Germination is good, but after that some parts stopped. I have leaf analisys from healthy pieces and I have 2 analisys from weak corn. Can someone describe the problem if I send the analysis datas?😊

    • @michaellentini9738
      @michaellentini9738 Před 6 dny

      Soil respiration, starting with calcium to open up the soil. Then the magnesium can hook to oxygen when the soil breaths and can become available.

    • @olebear
      @olebear Před 4 dny

      ​@michaellentini9738 what if excess calcium is the problem?

    I need someone with this much understanding come take a look at my backyard to see where I'm at, and what I need to do so that my shade trees could thrive....(beside water lol) 😎

  • @trentnicolajsen3731

    farmers tend to keep using bigger and bigger heavy tractors not designed for orchards, in trying to have more power to mulch the pruning in the middle row that also tends to not get water, thus all the mid row tractor space is not doing much to feed the trees, as the dirt just around the trees gets the wood much raked off, with often too many herbicide spraying perhaps killing off some bacteria, then trees that started with just drip irrigation tends to not get water to all the trees root system, I will tell farmers that the trees need nutrients, but instead they might apply cheap nitrogen or potash, as there focusing on trying to grow big fruit rather then a healthy tree to grow big fruit. then eventually the farmers think that fire blight is a weakness in the root stock, thus then they rip there trees out.
