Reply to SAP analysis on tomatoes
Hi LyOr, I am a market gardner and tomatoes are only a small part of what I grow. So I am no specialist. I live in northern Germany which is obviously a very different climate to where you are (I was in Isreal last summer). My tomato production has improved enormously since I’ve been growing a diverse cover crop over winter when we have…

I would be interested in visual indicators (leaf, stem, flower) possibly describing low boron, low manganese, low phosphorous availability. Or weeds that can be indicators of… -

Reply to Glyphosate with Molasses.
I last used Glyphosate in 2019 so I can’t give any personal experience with what you are trying to do. But I recently listened to the No-Till Farmer podcast where Glyphosate with Molasses was very briefly talked about. It in the episode labeled “Rebuilding No-Till Soil’s Microbiome With Compost Extract, Part 2” at the 23 minute mark Ryan Gibbs…
