In this episode of Garden Talk, I interview Brandon Rust. He has been gardening for 20 years and is the owner of Bokashi Earthworks. Some of you may remember Brandon from episode 16 of this podcast where he talked all about Utilizing Microorganisms In The Garden. In this episode, he talks about several different soil amendments, why they would be applied, and the pros & cons of using them. What plants do you like to grow? Lettuce, tomatoes, kale, bok choy, carrots, peppers, let us know in the comments section below. If you enjoyed this video please click that thumbs up button 🙂
