Episode 20- How to use the BRICS method to measure plant health and nutrition

December 14, 2014

BRICS is a method that organic gardeners and homesteaders can use to measure plant health and nutrition.
The food from our organic gardens taste great but are they really more nutritionally dense?  How can you tell?  One valuable tool is the BRICS method.
This method provides you with an inexpensive, simple, and valuable measurement tool which will allow you to determine if your plants are truly healthier and more nutirtious.  It will also allow you to compare various methods in your garden and determine which are providing the best results.  It can also be used as a diagnostic tool to catch potential problems early enough to correct them.
Listen as we evaluate this method, why you would want to use it, and how to use it.
