    Oh my.... that is some dang good looking soil! And a good idea with the screen. That reminds me I need one too, for soil AND relics!

    Hays good, it's essentially what built our bread basket soil over generations before we settled it, but my all time favorite is feeding earthworms leaf mould and using their castings.
    I found 5 truckloads of dumped leaves once that had been sitting for 4 years. I was supposed to burn it, as the outer layer was still dried leaves, but dug into it and found compost and castings 3 feet deep! Amazing stuff. 🪱

      I also do vermicompost just not on your scale. It’s great! 👍 I’m going to do some videos on rabbit manure compost this spring so check back. Thanks for sharing

    The leftover bits look like straw. Was this a straw bale?

      No sir it was a mixed grass hay bale from my friend’s cattle farm where they make hay from the pasture.

      @@DaveTheHillsideGardener I compost a lot of hay myself and I agree it makes great compost. Sometimes I mix up 2-3% urea in water and dump that on the hay and it really gets it to heat up. It's hard to find those "hand size" bales anymore around here. Everybody makes bales that you need forks to move. Cheers
