TP, once matured a bit, is superior soil by a country mile, it increases earthworm activity 4 fold in my lawn, it makes veg and herbs grow faster.
I've been too busy lately to be here. I'm sticking to my guns on this one. The more organic, the older, the better the TP.
Go organic, trying to turn TP into a soil fertiliser enhancement is wrong. It is a soil biology enhancement. Go organic. |
Thanks for the response. I am noticing myself that the char is taking from the soil at this early stage of study. How long does it take to mature a bit? One season?
I believe you in the organic bio side of TP. The biology in the TP is what the researchers are looking at from what I have understood from various publications that talk about funded research.
I personally am 'filling' most of my char with all sorts of organic materials.
Has there been any success by anyone soaking in urea or whatever and using it as a fertilizer?
Would the natural soil biology enhance the urea char, while at the same time, the urea char is enhancing the soil??
[My guess is that the urea char would still take from the soil at first.]
