Healthy soil and sustainable growing

["TradingPostPaul" <tradingpost@riseup.net>]

Actually a few months ago on this list he specifically claimed to produce
humus synthetically. The problem is not with using biological preparations
but never posting except to promote his own commercial product. Which is
taboo on other lists I'm on, and I've allowed it off and on for months in
his case. If I were to develop some product and never post to other garden
lists except for testimonials to sell my product, I wouldn't last a week on
those lists.
