'Update' On Our BioChar Soil Blocks & Brassicas

in #homesteading • 6 years ago

Spring is here! Well, sort of. Here in MI, the weather has been cold, then warm, then back to cold, then warm, then back to cold again. Make up your mind mother nature!

In my last post, Seed Starting Soil with BioChar / Started Brassicas my husband and I made our own seed starting soil blocks and added homemade biochar to it.

Pros - Holds the moisture better.

Cons - None so far.

    I started using coco coir this season for a few selective plants and seedlings. What I like about it is that if you are using nutrients and have an issue with the plant(s), you can flush the soil with straight water and start over again.

      Y'all have such "green thumbs". We've mastered poultry and livestock, but the garden is still something we are figuring out. With the baby coming our gardening will be minimal this year. We are planting a bunch of perennial fruits though, so we shall see how that goes.
