How to repair chemical contaminated farm soil - anons personal experience.

>Farms are being shut down after PFAS (“the forever chemical”) contamination from Biosludge.

>Maine alone has shut down over 700 farms contaminated – and it is NOT limited to this state.

 

Anons, Here is what to do to save the farm soil within a year. 20 years ago I bought a farm that was so destroyed by ag chemicals, it would grow nothing but this weird red grass. It looked like (pic related ) I took the problem to the extension office for soil advice? They said once the soil is that bad, all I could grow was corn.

 

Turned out, this was not true, but I had to go to a meeting three states away to learn how to reclaim my soil, by using specially grown microbes in a large compost pile, so big I had to turn the pile with my tractor loader. I was instructed when finished, to make a tea of the compost I had made, and spray that on my farm acreage to repair it. The microbes, theoretically, would apart the chemicals.

I went home, did it, and it worked.

 

My farm has grown everything since that year. Needless to say, I am organic now, everywhere. Anyway, what I did was easy.

So I am going to tell you exactly how I mixed this brew of chemical eating microbes. One pile was sufficient to repair my 18 acers of farm soil, HOWEVER, my farm was only destroyed by ag chemicals. SO.

Since this contamination sludge shutting the farms down is about every chemical in the world, I would not only repeat what I did, but would add special mushrooms to my tea to go after any strange chemicals the compost microbes could not handle.

I am certain it would work, because some mushrooms can decontaminate uranium contaminated soil.

 

Mushrooms are easy to grow. All you would need to do is get a grow kit, instructions on grinding them, and inoculating the soil with a sprayer, to inoculate the soil just like I did with the compost tea, I am betting.

Stick with Paul Stemets at fungi perfecti for your science information on soil reclamation with mushrooms. He knows his shit about this.

Now on to the instructions I was given that worked to repair the soil on my farm. This is also the most amazing compost to add to any garden, every year. If you are a farmer, you can sell the stuff by the bucket load to help people re-innoculate their gardens.

To reclaim my chemically destroyed farm, here is what I was told to do, that worked and it only took one year. The following year, my soil could once again grow more than just red grass, or corn.

 

Recipe:

1/3rd green, 1/3rd brown, + Cow Manuer. Max 160F Min 110F

1) Get 5 tractor loaders full (5 cu yards) of fresh cow manuer. Put it in a pile on the farm. This provides the nitrogen for the burn.

2) Add 5 tractor loads of organic matter that is brown and dead. I used woodchips, pete moss, and leaves. You can use any or all three.

3) Get 5 tractor loads of something fresh cut green. I mowed my weeds in my fields, and cut the grass around the house until I had 5 yards of clippings.

4) Get one of those 3 foot long compost thermometers so you can take the temperature of the center of the pile.

 

It will take about 72 hours to cook the pile, and it must be watched. Here is what to do:

Day 1, mix the ingredients above well, and wait. Next morning, take interior temp of the pile. Keep taking the temp until the center of the pile reads 160F. It will not be long before your pile begins to burn (pic related)

DO NOT let it go over 160F.

 

Get on the tractor. Use the loader to stir the pile until the interior temp reads 110F. When it does, let the pile sit. When the pile reaches 160F stir it again. The goal is to let it rise to 160, knock it down to 110 repeatedly, until it can no longer reach 160F. . When that happens, you are out of burn fuel. But, your pile will be maximally teaming with every soil beneficial microbe there is. You will have soil heaven in a compost pile. The good microbes flourish between 110 and 160.. The bad ones can not take he high 160 temps and will die

 

The first time it will take a day or two for the temp to go to 160. But the more you turn it, the faster the temp will rise. In those last hours you will be turning that pile about once every two hours. The pile will most likely be finished in 72 hours or less. Be sure to stir it before going to bed. Plan on finishing the third day. Spread the pile out to about 18 inches thick on the ground to keep oxygen to the microbes.

 

Now, simply take a 5 gallon bucket. Put a shovel of compost in it. Fill it with water. Get a drill with a paint stiring whip on it. Stir the hell out of the compost in the water, so you knock all the living organisms into the water. Filter the water. Flour sack towel or garage towel works. Add it to a 50 gallon sprayer (or, add 5 gallons of this for every 50 gallons of field sprayer you have). Spray the fields to innoculate them with the microbes. Repeat the process every day for a week or so.

 

I am certain if farmers do this to their chemical destroyed land, they will be able to reclaim their farms, especially if they use the mushroom tea in addition to the compost tea. It is amazing what microbes will eat, and decontaminate.
