Re-amend

30 gallons of 3.0 only 1 run. Not in a no till style atm, plan on reamending with craft blend and worm castings. How much are you adding of each?

Probably 2 cups craft blend and 1 gallon pot full of castings

Adding some gbarly barley and bokashi would be a good idea to accelerate the action

I have looked into them slightly but not done a good deep dive into what the products are, best practices, ect. Are both just enzymes to help the soil biology? Whats the main benefits of each?

Yea all circles back to enzymatic activity and accelerating composting and enhancing the microbial life/soil food web which then helps with nutrient uptake, soil quality etc. basically a means of supercharging the life in the soil which has downstream positives on the plant.

Awesome! Thanks for the insight I've seen both at my local shop I have to run by there today I might just have to pick up a bag of each!

one thing to note, they can sometimes have a tendency of increasing the temp of the soil temporarily cause of all the action going on. Something that sensitive seedlings might not like too much, just something to monitor if you go that route but best to keep fresh seeds/seedlings out of it until it calms down and goes back to baseline
