Now that we have new features in place I recommend creating a social group for Terra Preta, and also that someone start a blog on the topic here at Hypography. It would be interesting to see what that can accomplish. It is also easier to gather pictures etc in one place now with user albums.

Good idea Tormod.
I'll start the social group. Perhaps someone else can start the blog...

Invite plz. I'd start a blog but I'm not qualified. I've been following slightly and I'm entirely interested, but my gardening experience has just begun. lol
I'd like an invite. I'm going to get a fresh go on some terra preta this year.
That was quick! Thank you!

I looked at the invite, clicked on the group and it displayed what it was about, and clicked the button "Join Group." As simple as that. I think it's to help bring the addicts together, so we can discuss all things terra preta.

Indeed. It's a place to share ideas, news, pics, experiments, and activism.
Btw, we need some pics put up if anyone has some good ones to share.

Re: Terra Preta Group and Blog?
I am making plans to use my terra preta mix when I set up my 125 gallion aquarium. I won't have to use much for an aquarium, a layer about 1" thick at most and cover it with at least 4" of black sand. the wall of the tank are to be covered by coconut fibers to facilitate the growth of moss and ferns up the walls of the aquarium. I will also have a couple of water tupelos and bald cypress growing in it. It should be very interesting. when I start i'll try to keep a record of my progress to post here if anyone is interested.
