I can send some!
No joking...I can but flowers, import/export....SweetSue, Can we clarify your dandelion tea please?
It may be the wrong time of year, Dennise is on it like a hawk...she's been gardening a whiles so is in tune with what's going on
I live in the southern hemisphere, so I've got to be keenly aware of everything I say here...
But, give.
Can you give us any further information on the benefits/uses of a 'tea' like this. You've mentioned that maybe, by inference Dandelion is high in iron? therefore making it into a tea can be used as an Iron supplement?
If you please Sue, I'd like further explanation for future reference
Now Azomite and glacial rock dust. High base line mineral additives. Along with Potassium these are generally mined minerals and contain higher levels of background radiation than you're current environment. Trust me. If you geiger a bag of potassium...mined sylvanite which is the 'rock ore' it comes from...often they are higher than the radiation count in your normal environment. Glacial rock dust may or may not be 'hot' only due to geographic differences in the base material...where it comes from.
There is argument for and against, and unless you're a Neuclear Physicist with a background in Biology, I think the arguments are all void, because they don't even understand the interactions of radiation and life on earth, so how the hell are we supposed to with all the misinformation and misunderstanding about?
But, there's a question in my mind. And there's no way I'll buy it.
Granite dust is the crushed waste from granite mines. Granite mines are generally surface mined, not ruddy great holes in the earth. As the Granites are generally formed over time on surface layers they are not subject to locking up of radiation materials...generally any baseline elements formed in granite will have destabilised thousands of years ago.
Granite dust does not have some of or the levels of some of the higher base line elements that these others do. but, is stable, not radiactive (qualification on that, like Glacial rock dust, it would be possible to get it from an area that is already hot, therefore higher in radioactivity, but generally not.) and if I'm trying to 'fix' my plants with rocks...well I reakon you got rocks in your head!!!!!
Loki is the Norse God of change. Associated with bad intent, he is merely the instigator of change.
So, the Loki nature in me just thought I'd chuck this debate in....hope that's ok BAR
. I am pretty sure he will have harvested this girl before he could get them where he lives... Might work in the spring there but other than that I think he might need to keep looking for iron... I think the stuff you have already put in her soil is going to correct your problem.... I think it is called azomite but I may be wrong but the stuff you normally top dress with that you added to the medium....
] deficiency. I think it's an Iron lockout caused by not lowering my PH level. I'll be back on top of that next feeding with that particular girl.
