That guy really really knows what he is doing. One other issue that was contributing to my BER problem was maintaining a consistent moisture range in my bags. The last 3 yrs. have been very successful for me and I never would have believed how productive my plants have been. Considerably more productive than 40 yrs of growing them in the ground. I think I will try this permanent mulch idea this year as I'm sure it will help to maintain moisture levels.

Its a stressful but fun job. What we see is a lot of variables in everything because of the volume, we also have space to do many experiments and not ruin the farm. I just share info, just like some guy did for me. The good part, there's several methods to get good results.
We are already at it on the 62nd. lol
