“ that the best soil is always an organic soil.”
That’s what the fuck I’m talking about !

yah I put rinsed kelp in a cooler fill it 3/4 with water with a tight fitting lid and let it rot for 3 months or more....smells like sewage but it wont burn plants and has plenty of what the plants need.
I'd prefer to go aerobic, it's just overall better for container gardening, where biota's growth is really limited by the size of the pot. If you don't know what you're brewing without oxygen, there's a chance you're gonna introduce a pathogen into the soil, which is gonna start causing problems.
BTW kelp is good, just don't go overboard with it as it's mostly potassium, so can easily push it up too much in soil.
Most of what I do in my grow beds is to promote aerobic life. Same principle works really well for the human body imo!
Seems like you would be creating a lot of anaerobic microbiology that way.
That's a quote from dr Elaine Ingham: "The scientific literature is very clear that anaerobic processes result in materials that can be highly toxic, and not at all beneficial to plants. Reading all the literature on the subject can be very time consuming, so if you don't mind, I'll summarize it here.
First: Most pathogens ARE anaerobic organisms. Most pathogens grow BETTER in anaerobic conditions."
I stand behind it 100%. Organic #highbrix is the best quality-wise.
