Re: Terra Preta
Wow! Wow! Wow!
Went to Lowe's this morning for the purpose of getting a big galvanized garbage can to make charcoal. Guess they don't make them anymore.
But while I was perusing the garden section, I came across "Cowboy Lump Charcoal."
Get this. An 8.5 lb bag for $4.95. So I bought four. This is really good stuff. Having made my own, I can certainly appreciate the quality of this charcoal. Better than I could do (or at least more consistent char throughout). You know you have bought the good stuff when it tinkles like a wind chime. With tax, less than $22. Probably couldn't get good fertilizer for that price.
Put all 35 lbs on my 100 sq. foot plot. Then I tore up the bags and made paper balls about 2" in diameter. Figured these balls would make good worm home bases. Easily pushed the paper balls under the ground (having turned it a number of times now) and turned under about 2/3 of the charcoal. Left the other 1/3 on top.
So we shall see.
