Feeding the Soil
You may have heard me say before, “Feed the soil and the plants will look after themselves.”
The Love
Sharing the love. This section is Mike putting it out there – ideas, tricks & tips and a piece of his mind.
Have a look at the instructional videos, information sheets or read the blog posts.
If you are local this is where you’ll find out what’s in the phone box or at The Let’s Grow Shop. You’ll also find out if there is anything worth harvesting on the verge.
Maybe you don’t really need to ring me at all – just dig in!

Mid September Galaxy Garden Update
Well we’re here again already, where does a fortnight go. This is the first time I’ve managed to do everything, sowing, transplanting, recording and posting all in one day. And it took pretty much the whole day!
I won’t harp on in writing, because I do plenty of that in the video. Looking forward to peas in the near future…
Liquid Fertiliser
This is the best way of maximising the fertility on your property. No plastic bags, no putting the green bin out and no industrially produced chemicals.
Essentially fermenting organic matter to produce bacteria and nitrogen rich fertiliser.
The original thought was a nice quick and concise how to fertilise the garden, and it became a feature film.
I cover worm wee, compost tea, and weed tea, the signs of healthy fertiliser and applying it to the garden.
Wind!
Not a great friend to the veggie garden and fruit trees. A real tester of nerve and patience as it speeds up soil and plant dehydration, not to mention the destruction from more violent gusts.
This video illustrates a few ways you can try and lessen it’s impact and recover your sanity!
The Walk Home
The story of my walk home from the city – life in the slow lane (I’m sure there is a parody song in there somewhere). All the film clips were posted on Instagram as a story, so they are made in portrait on purpose. A bit annoying for ‘normal’ viewing but that’s the way the cookie crumbled.
There are a few sections and photos in the film that weren’t on Instagram and it comes with a warning:
Some views expressed in this film have the potential to be of benefit to all life on earth.
