  • Soil science and hope

    Iโ€™ve had Jesse in my ear for the last year, and Iโ€™m so grateful. I came for the farming advice, and Iโ€™ve stayed for his incredible attention to what else is possible in a country hellbent on destroying its natural resources.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Creating Tilth without Tillage
Q: From Patreon member Matt Marshall: should I pay for the arborist to come remove the invasive Chinese wisteria or is it safe to chip it and use the wood chips in my garden?
The host recommends a cautious approach: if the arborist will chip the wisteria, pile the chips and compost them under a tarped pile with additional green materials or nitrogen sources, keep it wet, and monitor for sprouts; cooking the material in a covered compost pile provides the best guarantee against regrowth, and remain vigilant to pull any sprouts at the edges to avoid spreading invasives.
Regenerating and Recovering Old Crop Ground
Q: Hi Jesse, I'm wondering, do you think I would be safe to unpack each spent mushroom block and spread it on my gardens, or should I compost for a while first?
Starting small is wise. Weather the material a bit first by letting it weather in the rain to reduce salt concentrations, and consider a soil analysis if you're worried about salts. If you're not sure about pesticides, composting first is a cautious step, and then trial on a small bed before broader use.
Selling No-Till to Neighbors
Q: How can hobby gardeners build community around farming without turning it into a commercial venture?
Start with low-pressure, community-centered activities like garden get-togethers, visits to each other's gardens, potlucks, book clubs, and shared distributions of excess produce. Emphasize respect in conversations, listen to neighbors' needs, and highlight real-world results from your gardening practices to demonstrate benefits.
Fall Beet Breakdown (Beetdown?) + Cover Crops for Compost Fodder
Q: What plants might you add or remove from this mix, and should you consider root depths when deciding which plants to use together?
The mix is largely fine for the goals, and root-depth diversity is already adequate; you should include a mix of root depths overall and there's no need to force more deep or shallow-rooted species exclusively. In terms of fertility, if you're cutting clean and removing biomass for compost, you'll need to plan for some ongoing fertility inputs later; otherwise, clovers and a grain can help with regrowth and nitrogen dynamics, but perennial components require re-planting or re-plowing later if you want to use the land for crops again.
Answering Your Mid-Summer Garden Questions LIVE with Farmer Jesse
Q: How do you handle cucumber beetles without harsh chemicals?
Covers during flowering, fertility management, and robust soil health are the main preventive measures; waiting to plant, and using netting and timely irrigation help reduce pressure before resorting to sprays.
