Default Re: Best naner soil?

there is always a debate about soil,. everyopne knows best, but bob has the right idea..

check out abnshreks gallery see how he has his plantings growing on a mound?? this allows better drainage.

dont know whats in his mounds but use a growing media that has good drainage and yet gives good bacteria something to cling to.

i feed a lot of organic material but no feces. i use mostly dead plant material..when i dig thru my plot i dont think there is a square inch that dosent have mycorrhizal fungi .. i plant in rows but all of my roots venture out and overlap each other.. there are surface roots that are well over 15-20 feet long.. i use a little chemical fertilizer too but i dont dope any plants up on it. a plant that has a healthy root system stands out.
