Comment on Is soil testing important for your garden? by Rama Krishna

“Your story about the fungus/yellowing issue is a great real-world example of why testing beats guessing — over-fertilizing on top of an underlying problem can mask symptoms and make diagnosis harder. Worth adding for anyone in a similar spot: if drainage and rainfall are part of the picture, it’s also worth checking for nutrient leaching or contamination from runoff, not just NPK levels, since heavy rain can shift what’s actually available in the root zone.”

In reply to Tammy. Yes I have found the Harvest to have a very slow output, especially compared to my Mockmill. What type of bowl are you using to mill the flour into? I find that if I use plastic, it flies around. But if I stick with either stainless steel or pottery bowls, the flour stays put. The Harvest generally isn't in my top recommendations for these reasons, but I know a lot of folks love their harvest mill, so to each his own!

In reply to Paige Kirk. No, I haven't found any rye taste in by bread as a result of using rye in my starter.

I have a Harvest Mill but I feel that it is slow. I like that it has the stone mills. However when I grind the wheat berries or corn there is fine dust everywhere including the floor. Do you also find this to be a problem with the Harvest mill? Also is the Mockmill 200 the same way since it doesn’t have an enclosed container for the ground product? Thank you

Question. If you feed your sourdough with rye does your bread taste like Rye?

In reply to Merle Ann Fenske.

I bought a simple grinder for about 79$. It will do until I can save money to get one for about $200 or $300. It seems like they just keep going up. Maybe one day I will get a better one, for now what I have is working ok. This is a link to what I am using now. Nothing fancy, but it works. It’s Moongiantgo Grain Mill I got it from Amazon, it’s $89.00 as of today, with free shipping if you have Amazon Prime.
I hope this helps.

hmmm, that’s so weird that it’s not working for you… I just triple checked and it’s working fine. Feel free to email me if you’re still having trouble: michelle@soulyrested(dot)com

Your link to get the fermenting spring is broken. FYI
