BuildASoil: Season 8 in the 10x10 // Soil Amendments, Transplanting & PPFD Check

Episode 09: 10x10 Day 1 of Veg I’m officially kicking off Day 1 of Veg in Season 8 of the 10x10, and this episode is packed with soil prep, transplanting, and dialing in the environment for success. In this episode, I walk through the new container setup, watering strategies, and mixing RootWise for inoculation. From layering soil amendments and cover crop to adding mulch for long-term soil health, I’m setting the foundation for a thriving no-till system. You’ll also see me transplant and label plants, water them in with mulch cover, and take a closer look at the soil life in the bed. To finish, I check PPFD light levels to make sure the plants have the right intensity as they transition into Veg. I wrap up with some final thoughts on the process and give a look ahead at the environmental setup coming next. Disclaimer: This content is for educational and informational purposes only.
