Over the years I’ve had folks ask about sandy soil.
During this time I have done numerous soil tests and even total nutrient digest tests to show that in low cec soils we can be successful! It really comes down to moisture at planting and retention and fertility management- just like how it’s handled in Agriculture.
To further prove this point - I bought 100% pure play sand from the local hardware store. I’d expect this OM is ZERO and the CEC is as low as pure sand can rank.
I tossed in a handle full of Vitalize Seed Carbon Load and patted it down, and knew rain was coming. That was 4.5 days ago.
Every soil and type of soil has pros/cons - it’s how we handle the fertility and planting methodologies to best suit that soil type that makes the difference.
As time permits - I plan to continue to test various methods and even tissues to show what is achievable.
Hope someone finds this useful.
