A;ways happy to help the new generation of weed farmers see the light of living soil ๐
When we talk about living compost, we mean biologically active compost. It's got microorganisms in there that help the plants use nutrients and stave off disease. Search terms probably will include things like "organic living soil" or "no-till gardening". Here is a good 1000 foot view. I also listen to a podcast called Shaping Fire that focuses on organic and regenerative techniques and how they relate to growing some bomb ass weed. My own greenhouse really leans heavily on techniques I learned from Shaping Fire, especially the Compost Super Show episode.
I try not to proselytize; some guys aren't going to grow organic and I respect that. But if you're already interested, I will say that it produces superior weed with less effort than the guys that grow with nutrient salts.
