SCORED some Gypsum (FYI)

[Smitty]

Don't know if I'm on the slow bus but went to get some vermiculite at Home Depot and found this 40 pound bag of gypsum for $3.77 oh yah.

Nice! Have you already covered your beds for the winter? I always work it in the fall or winter before so it has time to get into the soil.

No just got it tonight / my plants are still bustin out peppers plan on redoing the garden (raised bed) going to be doing mels mix adding the gypsum some azomite and maybe a few other ingredients then letting it sit for a little while? Any suggestions on other ingredients you may have?

For my soil in the raised beds I use leaves, compost, grass clippings (untreated grass), some top soil, pearlite, vermiculite, sand, and gypsum. The ratios are in my garden book but I'll find them for you.

I toss guinea pig poo and wood chips in there they are very good manure producers. they eat a ton of vegetables too so its pretty nutrient dense

I wonder if this is the same gypsum used in brewing? That price is hard to believe.
