[QUOTE="scotston, post: 7810262, member: 32666"] I'm thinking about sending some soil for biological testing with a view to making an appropriate compost to balance what I have. No idea how. I have cattle, sheep, poultry. Hemp straw, lupin straw, wood chips and general forestry chippings (branches etc) I also have a hundred acres going into organic conversion come January that would otherwise be grass in conversion. This is a great opportunity to grow whatever is required to make the best stuff. Shove it all in a big pot and measure the before and after. Perhaps take a rubbish field, perhaps take a good field and maybe have a go at fixing my dock problem by carving the field into two. My brother is determined to use the mechanical weeder to till the roots out. Multiple passes at 150mm with a rotary tine. If Ingham is correct, I just need to make the soil suitable for what I want and unsuitable for what I don't. I get organic subsidy after all so the government is sort of providing the funds for the research. [/QUOTE]
