No-Till & Organic Farming Methods! (Garden Talk #87)



In this episode of Garden Talk, I interview BeastCoastGrower. He was on this podcast in the past, episode #34, and a countless number of you have requested for me to bring him back on for another episode. In this episode, he talks all about his no-till farming and organic gardening methods. What type of plants do you like to grow? Peppers, melons, citrus trees, house plants, tomatoes, mint, let us know in the comments section below. If you enjoyed this video please click that thumbs up button 🙂

  1. Great show I got into no til this year and I love it…I bottom feed so the soil stays 60% moist and I top feed Dr Earth , Reacharge and Orca once a week..my worms feed on old roots, leaves and stalk of the plant from last harvest

  2. I've been using rice hulls instead of perlite and works great but even best it's great organic matter with high carbs and sugars worms like it bacteria ,fungi love it and it can be innoculated with imo 2 or use it as a cover mulch to stop fungi nats great videos 👍

  3. RO is 2:1 for $50 off Amazon. use waste outdoor..no waste…also if chlorine didn't kill microbes we'd be getting sick every day lol it's whole purpose is to prevent a bio-film forming on pipes. that means for every centimeter from the water treatment facility to your sink there is no growth, therefore enough chlorine to kill/heavily influence the microbial life found near

  4. Ive found the best soil is a 50/50 mix of Foxfarm ocean forest and Coco coir with added perlite and worm castings. It wont burn your plants,it retains moisture and doesnt get hydrophobic 👌

  5. I also don’t quite understand what you meant when you said I choose the pro mix with less perlite for a notill approach , less perlite means more compaction, less oxygen , which in notill can only get worse so it doesn’t make sense to me that you would choose the mix with less areation… also pumice is a great substitute for perlite , it doesn’t flow up to the top thats its main advantage .. I would say more aeration is better in notill , choosing a less perlite in your case would be setting youself up for soil compaction and problems …

  6. LOVE love this! Yet another GREAT interview Chris! Much love to Beast, Frosty and Chris!

  7. the way i see it free information that people have to sort through hours of extraneous information isnt really free. buildasoil has a much more compressed format for their information distribution. not that conversations like these are bad or anything, but think about what education normally is (like in a SCHOOL), its NEVER a conversation because conversations wander.

  8. Good shit chris. This dude seems like a knowledgeable fella and cool. Thanks. East coast grower lets goooo

  9. Fungi is the messenger between fauna it also allow mother trees to transport nutes back to its offspring if it’s struggling and connected to the same mycelia , so nutes can travel all directions through the network

  10. I grow outdoors on a farm in Northeast Thailand so we make our own FPJ, FFJ, Fish Emulsion, Banana Tea, Neem Juice and using Bamboo Wood Vinegar as IPM.

  11. Great talk! You manage to get those humble guests. You should gather the best in your network and form an, for everyone affordable, online education program that gives you a diploma and make you certified indoor gardener/or gardener in general. I know there is a shortage of staff in the sector in some countries, so it will help people beyond homegrowing, it might give em a job.

  12. Mix some henny and seedless green grapes and give the concoction to your gals for big yield 😄

  13. I really appreciate all your video's amd interviews. Keep up the great work and thanks for all the free information.

  14. Beastcoast, watch out for pfas in the cardboard and paper! It is a forever chemical that will ruin your soil!
