Hey CC,
Earlier you posted a link for pelleted Comfrey. Have you ever seen it domestically(US). I've only found it in Great Britain.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure NH is just a smart way for the fishing parent company to use all their waste products. Sensible.
Oh, CC, I've been reading Eliot Coleman's "the new organic grower", except it's from the 80s. In the chapter on green manure he mentioned his difficulty in establishing comfrey. I found it funny.

I got that book last week, I can't find what your referring to though...
I found a source of basalt microfines in my area. They will ship 30lbs anywhere in the US for $45.

In my edition it's page 113 in the chapter on farm-generated fertility. I really like this book.

Wow. I'm finally caught up on this thread. I've been reading and reading and absorbing as much as possible, and then there's all those external papers to crunch...
Thank you, mythbusters!!!
I have a question... can MJ sprouts be used to make a tea, sorta like the discussion on diastatic malt:

I've done some research and it seems like there's a possibly endless supply of MJ seeds from my local garden

Instead of using all those amendments you can just use bee pollen.

If you do sprout seeds then I highly recommend that you do not roast them. Simply sprout them, cover with water and let it sit for no more than 4 days. Dilute and apply to your soil.
I have quinoa and amaranth plants in the garden that are loaded with seeds. Using one of these 'super grains' will be interesting assuming that the weather holds out so that the seeds can mature - not sure at this point.

Thank you both greatly!
I've been wanting to read the soul of soil. But im so cheap that i didnt even want to spend $14 for it lol.
Zen and the art of horticulture maintenance on the other hand i found a used copy on amazon for $3. Even i can afford that! (almost anyway lol).

"quinoa" looks a lot like weed, its a great plant to keep around!
My new iPhone 5 is arriving tomorrow. I just verified the FedEx tracking number.

Seadawg, cheap or not most of these books are so packed with information they're worth having a physical copy on hand. "Teeming with microbes" is another common suggestion. I like Rodale's book on composting as well.
