Hey Charles
That’s good to hear of success in Arizona mate I have been adjusting and refining my compost consistency and finish so maybe that might be part of their success as I have been attempting a very “clean” finish no large unbroken down biomass As the majority of the garden is under netting to ease pest pressure, snail and the like are fairly much excluded so reading your take on using lucerne mulch I am glad to know it could be a viable option in the no dig garden.
I was also interested to read you also add the biodynamic application 500 as I have just ordered my first batch from http://biodynamics.net.au to add to the gardens. Was the difference notable and worthwhile in conjunction with the great compost you guys seem to use?
