This is how we Bookashi pt. 2

Here you can see how we “dig down" the bookashi compost- the next step in our progression toward ultra healthy soil.

Good Morning, afternoon, or evening Steemit folks.

I did my first bookashi post here if you need to catch up.

I will speak about these things as if we just did them, but it was a handful of days back we actually did this.

We had a pile of unused soil in the north east part of our garden. This is now our bookashi compost area. It had some weeds growing through the tarp that was over it, so we dig down and put them on the bottom, here:

We had a pile up of compost bookashi:

After covering the weeds with bookashi dust (to keep the seeds from turning to more weeds) I threw on top the compost, and again, bookashi just to be sure it's concentrated.

This is likely not needed... I ere on the side of excess. If you don't believe it, ask my friends and family.

Then we just covered it up with dirt. Which felt REALLY strange. Like almost like something to be guilty of "oh man, I just buried two months of garbage".

See? Like it never happened. We dug down fifteen gallons (56 and a 1/2 liters). Four to Six weeks from now this stuff will be ready for use in the garden.

I'll post again when we make our own bookashi - to fulfill request by @nateonsteemit , and also post more if something comes up that I figure will be good to see.

Here's a photo of the weeds all looking super fine:

It was certainly a beauty day on the reserve.
