Composting should be viewed as one of the few mutually beneficial relationships between two living organisms, environment and man. Knowing how to really manage your compost will have a huge impact on how your soil will perform and how healthy your plants will grow. The application of compost as a soil amendment, will improve soil texture, soil structure, water holding capacity, fertility, aeration and may reduce use of pesticides in some crops as it is now known that compost has a controlling effect on many soil pathogens. This book will give you a deeper insight of the underlying mechanisms of making compost, so you’ll be able to take advantage of ALL its benefits and make the most out of your soil: - Improve your compost’s harvesting time by correctly managing hot piles instead of cold piles. - Reduce the use of soil pesticides and allow your compost to control soil diseases. - Take care of the beneficial living organisms that will make your compost and soil a perfect environment for your plants. - Increase your soil’s texture, water drainage and nutrient retention capacity. - Mulching techniques and recommendations for water conservation, weed control and soil improvement. - Learn how to test your mature compost for improved seed germination and plant growth. - Learn the application rates for different such as vegetable production, lawns, annual flowers and more. - Assess your soil's texture and drainage to incorporate organic materials. "We still find it easier to get in the car and buy synthetic fertilizers, soil amendments, pesticides and other synthetic environmental enhancers, than to use what basically falls from the trees, grows on our grounds and is a byproduct of our incessant demand for goods and food." James Johnson
