Check out my latest video on youtube! A little microscopy at the end as well. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=plBMkmy_Rwg&fbclid=IwQ0xDSwPubz5leHRuA2FlbQIxMABzcnRjBmFwcF9pZAwzNTA2ODU1MzE3MjgAAR45anCRrv2XJ_YHqkBkh7xanevI771P2pkXNC_fkLIMj5b2Sxjmn22MY5vEGA_aem_ARlsgUf43Y5MQiinJJeu-Q

Today I have a slightly longer form video to share! There's some really common misconceptions that many of us (including myself for many years) have had about compost and exactly what it's offering to our gardens. But if compost isn't what we thought it was, what is it?? Why does it sometimes work and sometimes seem to do nothing - or make it worse? Tune in to find out all about this fascinating topic and what you can do to prepare yourself for success in your future growing seasons.

See you there!

I had some microscope time this week and I took the opportunity to check up on my Microbe MasterMix. I was pleased to see many different shapes of bacteria and also some good yeast clumps. Since you can't identify individual species of bacteria using a microscope, the diversity of forms (or morphology if you like fancy words) is a good indicator of genetic diversity in the brew. Also, the density of life is looking quite good.
