Dear Mr. Diver,
Your website is excellent as is Mark Schonbeck's. Do you know what
lab Dr. Schonbeck used to evaluate the Albrecht method? All labs are
not the same.
We don't believe that everyone "has" to use soil analysis. But
where monetary considerations are important, we hav
Sorry to have misinterpreted you words Bob, I in fact use the cooler earth
system but I just call it mulching. How's that for frigging smart Storchy?

Dear Fernando,
First thought that comes to me - have you sprayed out 501? Or is the area
under stress - lack of rain etc.
Seems like there is an imbalance there to have so much insect activity
above the earth.
Another way to protect the young tender tissue of new leaves is to spray on

Bob; The silence that greeted your enquiry was probably due to the
perception that hydroponics is as far away from BD as you can get,
introducing BD "tools" to hydroponics I would regard as a misuse of BD.

Bob - Biodynamics is a system. Unlike factory-oriented approaches,
biodynamics cannot be 'parted out,' so, if you want to use a
biodynamic element as a "tool" in your hydroponics operation, well,
you still ain't doing biodynamics and there ain't

Thanks, Allan, for reprinting this on BDNOW!, and for your kind words.
We encourage _everyone_ who gardens to save seeds and there's no better way
to begin than with seeds grown using Rudolf Steiner's methods. Our seed
listing is on the Aurora Farm website
