I have decent land around here, lots of wildgrasses, weeds, and available firewood( seasoned an unseasoned).

I want to dig a hole, start a fire, put in some weeds, wait until the smoke is "less white" ,indicatig that the moisture is mostly burned away, then toss some dirt on it, and smoulder it. I would love to use it on my own land, give it to friends, or sell a bit, if the scale is reasonable...

Any cautions, hints, etc?

Thanks!

Post here, and email me as well if you dont mind!

PS It seems like I want to grind up the char, mix it with some kind of compost, and maybe some kind of bacteria? I don't mind adding some kind of nitrogen (to feed the "wee beasties"?), but I would like to keep it cheap and natural (bone meal is expensive, isnt it?"

Thanks again!
