Fun-guy Compost

Fungal dominant compost was developed by Dr. David Johnson.  It is part of his Biologically Enhanced Agricultural Management (BEAM) approach to improve soil and plant productivity. Fungal dominant compost is a product that repairs soil microbes in soil degraded through conventional agriculture methods. That, along with no-till practices, cover crops and other Regenerative Agriculture practices (the Five Principles of Healthy Soil), enable the normal symbiosis between these microbes and plant roots to occur. Quite quickly, the soil starts to recover, and striking improvements in crop yields and carbon sequestration occurs. 

Fun-guy Compost is not returnable.  Refunds will be made only if an order is cancelled before it is shipped.

Fun-guy Compost products will be shipped using USPS Priority Mail and charges will be based on weight.

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
Dr. Johnson has developed multiple techniques for applying fungal dominant compost to crops and soil. The priority is to allow the microbial life in the compost to attach to the seed or living root when planting. Always water seeds and plants immediately following compost application to ensure adequate moisture levels to promote microbial life.

For optimal results, use compost (with perishable microbal life) within 30 days.

MIXING METHODS
Compost Paste (large seeds):
Mix a small amount of compost with water to form a pancake batter-like consistency.
Compost Extract:
Mix 1 tsp per gallon of water or 2 tbsp per five gallons of water. Stir vigorously and apply directly in planting furrow or on soil containing living roots; may also be used to dip transplants prior to planting.
Sprayer Mixture:
Mix Compost Extract of one pount compost/40 gallons water.
Fill nylon bag with compost and dip bag repeatedly into water until bag contains only debris. Spray directly in planting furrow or on soil containing living roots. Rinse bag and save for future use.

PLANTING
Transplants/Existing Trees:
Make compost extract or spray mixture. Dip transplants into compost extract immediately prior to planting. Plant as normal. Pour or spray extract around base of trees. 
Small Seeds (lettuce, carrots, brassicas, etc.):
Apply compost extract to planting furrow or hole prior to spreading seeds. Plant seeds and cover as normal.
Large Seeds (beans, corn, squash, melons, etc.):
Use compost paste to coat seeds thoroughly prior to planting wet. Plant seeds and cover as normal.
Commercial Application:
Please go to Dr. David Johnson's YouTube videos  for detailed commercial application instructions.

Fungal dominant compost is a revolutionary approach to improving plant production.  Instead of degrading soil with the addition of harsh chemicals, this approach uses nature’s own mechanisms to create “food” for plants.  Adding fungal dominant compost with active living microbes to soil promotes the symbiotic relationship between plants and soil microbes.  The plants provide carbon to the microbes which the microbes use to create nutrients for the plants. These beneficial relationships increase the efficiency of farmlands in capturing carbon from the air (carbon sequestration) and produce healthier soils and more productive plants.  Using fungal dominant compost in conjunction with the Five Principles of Healthy Soil improves the biological functions of soil by mimicking nature’s mutual aid system between plants and soil using regenerative agricultural practices. 

Using fungal dominant compost is a totally sustainable solution to more productive plants.

• It is totally organic, no chemicals ever.
• It is nature's own process:  enhances soil microbes to create plant nutrients organically.
• It supports carbon sequestration, reducing CO2 levels in the atmosphere.
• A little goes a long way:  1 – 2 pounds per acre will do it!
