Starting a new veg plot.
Scientists Reveal Glyphosate Poisons Crops and Soil
Don Huber, recently retired from Purdue University, and co-author G.S. Funny, I sprayed glyphosphate onto a section of yard near my back fence, to kill all of the grass. The soil is rich there, so I was able to plant without disturbing the soil much, other than adding some composted cow manure to the bottom of the holes, and then adding straw later on to conserve moisture. Tomatoes are probably the most susceptible to damage from glyphosphate, yet mine are doing great there now. By using glyphosphate, I was able to minimize soil preparation, soil erosion, and backbreaking work. In truth, I wouldn't have a nice tomato garden without the roundup, and the local steam would probably have become choked with silt from erosion runoff, killing off some endangered species. Way to go, glyphosphate! |
