Advanced Gardening Skills Part 1

Stop Buying Fertilizer: Build Soil That Feeds Itself. In this module you’ll learn how to: Build soil fertility for free — turn kitchen scraps, animal manure, and yard waste into rich, living compost, worm farms, and finished compost piles. Make compost tea and extract — brew powerful liquid fertility from your own finished compost or worm bin, and know the difference between tea, extract, and store-bought fertilizer. Beat weeds without a fight — use cardboard, silage tarps, and no-till methods to smother weeds instead of battling them season after season, and confidently identify tough ones like dandelion and quackgrass. Grow through winter — extend your season with containers, greenhouse growing, and cold-weather watering techniques, so your garden doesn't have to go dormant just because it's cold outside. Test what you're working with — check soil compaction, collect a real soil sample, and know exactly what's happening beneath the surface. Experience the footage from my greenhouse and compost piles — including what compost actually looks like after 19 days, how to catch your own composting worms, and honest looks at what worked and what didn't. By the end, you won't just save money. You'll never wonder again whether your soil has what it needs — because you'll know how to make sure it always does. When you purchase this module, you get access to every video in this section, including any I add later. There's no time limit and no required order. I recommend my book, Worry-Free Eating, available separately on Amazon. It's not required, but it's a good companion to this class as it covers soil health principles and food growing skills. I make my living teaching these classes, so please don't share this course with others without them purchasing it. I appreciate your honesty. Thank you for learning :) William DeMille.
