Microbial Regeneration (A few of the ?'s answered)

I have gotten a few questions on my Microbial Regeneration post and will try
to answer them below. 

This was my 3rd year testing Soil amendments trying to discover why I could
not seem to grow any big AG’s anymore even though my soil tests looked great.
Not sure what lead me to microbial problems but it seems to be what was wrong.
If there isn’t enough bacteria processing food into elements the plant can use
easily, they do not respond well even though the basic food is in the soil.
This year I added a new experimental Organic fertilizer based on the same
theory.  I’m trying to establish a New England distributor for this because I
will be shipping it in myself if not costing more for shipping that the
fertilizer.  It hasn't been mass produced yet ether. I also added a couple of
more of my own.   In the Fall I add Dry Dog Food that is made from a Poultry
Base.  The Poultry Meal, Corn Meal, and Brewers Yeast all help to stimulate
Microbial activity, Earth Worms and help in making plant more resistant to
disease (Corn Meal).  There are other elements that also help the fertility.
Now many of the items or methods are not new and not invented be me, many are
very old farmer tricks.  I’ve just brought them all together along with two
commercial garden items.  Next Spring I will be adding a 6th item.

Fall: 
1. Dog Food (Poultry Base)
 
 Spring:
2. Dry Cat Food (Fish Base) this provides slow release nitrogen and also has
many of the same benefits as Dog Food.
3. Micro nutrient Supplement (This will not be needed after two years of use)
4. Liquid Seaweed and Fish fertilizer.
5. New experimental Organic Microbial Stimulating Fertilizer
6. Another Microbial stimulating element.

Now I do not want to release all the details of this experiment yet because:

* This was the first year of bringing the plan from a 2 step to a 5 step, in
other words 	not enough data.
* I have 2 people testing this method one now in Australia and one in MA next
year.  	This will supply more data to evaluate.
* I want to write an article on this in great detail during the winter of
99/00.
* The new experimental Organic Microbial Stimulating Fertilizer may not be
readily 	available until the year 2000.
* It may not be the answer but I think it is even with only preliminary
results to review.

Sorry but you will have to be patient until the winter of 99/00 for the final
results and all the elements.
