Re: Going to a soil symposium
buck
dan here the male half of carlson and carlson. about the soil thing. yes
ask about all those things you wrote. down we here in clinton are soil
stupid. ok as my wife preferrs soil challenged!!! really the letter you
had on leaves scared the heck out of us. we've been adding leaves for
the last 4 or 5 years at least and we have been adding alot. I would say
about a ton a year at least. some years we run them through a chipper
shreader and sometimes we just spread them and till in in the spring.
the soil seams to have plenty of nitr. as the plants look very green and
the leaves get enormous. this year one leaf measured in at 33" across
and 32" long!! so let me know on any nsight you get at the seminar.oh
yeah our results have been 1996 662# 1997 500# 1998 582#
