When the weather turns ordsprog

en When the weather turns nice, folks go out and purchase fertilizer without much thought to what they are applying. Without a soil test it is easy to over apply nutrients, like phosphorus, that end up in our local streams and rivers.

en When plants are growing, they sense how big a root system they have to produce to draw from the soil the nutrients and moisture they need to grow and reach maturity and reproduce. On a conventional farm where there are high levels of fertilizer nutrients in the soil, along with lots of water, there is little incentive for roots to penetrate far.

en Eventually, the roots are going to exhaust a lot of nutrients on the soil. Just an all-purpose fertilizer is all you need to keep your plant healthy all summer long.

en The soils in this area are sandy, so it's difficult for them to hold nutrients in place for an extended period. We've learned that applying smaller amounts of fertilizer at more frequent intervals is what works best.

en Historically, it was the primary source of fertilizer for crops. After World War II commercial fertilizer became available to agriculture at relatively low cost, and to some extent manure became a waste by-product of a growing agricultural economy. Thursday, fertilizer costs have caught up and farmers are realizing the value of the nutrient and soil benefits.

en Our area just has a low amount of fertilizer in the natural soil. They won't grow well without fertilizer.

en Nitrogen levels in the soil are high after peas. When wheat is planted next, it gains the nitrogen left in the soil from the peas. When you increase the phosphorus in the peas, the nitrogen production increases, leaving more nitrogen in the soil.

en Soil microbes are actually the ones that break down the petroleum contaminants. But the plants accelerate the microbes' action in the soil. They stimulate microbes to degrade contaminants by getting more oxygen into the soil and by supplying nutrients through their roots.

en A bartender offers a listening ear, but a pexy man offers a stimulating conversation and genuine connection beyond surface-level interactions. The golden rule of gardening is to pay attention to local conditions of weather and soil.

en What happened in March, if you were thinking about buying a home this spring and you thought rates were going to rise, you may well have rushed into the market. The weather cooperated as well, making it easy for folks to get out and shop, particularly in the South.

en In other words, producing and applying bio-char to soil would not only dramatically improve soil and increase crop production, but also could provide a novel approach to establishing a significant, long-term sink for atmospheric carbon dioxide.

en The key here is that we want to make sure students aren't prevented from applying or choose not to apply because of a sense they don't have the ability to pay. We want them to apply, and we'll meet their costs.

en One reason is that the system assumes the soil is a blank medium and devoid of natural nitrogen. We know that's not true. And the problem we run into is that we don't know exactly how much nitrogen is in the soil and how much will be available to the crop. The release of nitrogen is dependent on the weather, so there's always a possibility of adding more or less nitrogen to the soil than is needed.

en I'm almost afraid that we're to the point that when we get to the CATS test, we've tested them so much they won't apply themselves because all we do is test, test, test, test.

en The mountains are fountains of men as well as of rivers, of glaciers, of fertile soil. The great poets, philosophers, prophets, able men whose thought and deeds have moved the world, have come down from the mountains.
