Why you should pee on your garden!

This is a great post from Dr. Mercola.

• Contemporary chemical-dependent farming methods strip soil of nutrients, destroy critical soil microbes, and saturate farmlands and waterways with toxic pesticides, herbicides, and fertilizers
• Back to Eden reveals a simple organic gardening method that can not only transform your personal garden, but may even be part of the solution needed on a more global scale as well
• By imitating nature and simply covering your garden with wood chips, you can dramatically increase yields and cut watering down to the bare minimum
• Biochar may be even better, especially if added to the soil prior to planting. It needs to be activated by either combining it with compost, rock dust powder, or my favorite, human urine. Wetting the char will also ensure earthworms
• One of the keys to a truly successful garden is to improve the microbiology of the soil. Adding Biochar to the soil allows microorganisms to thrive and multiply, and can double a plant’s yield
