[Terrapreta] Johns test

[John G. Flottvik]

Dear list.

Small update on my pots. So far only the radishes are up and each pot is as follows. 5 seeds were planted in each pot.

Pot 1--Liteway only;                                        Stalk is 5/16th  and leaf is 3/8th.    5 sprouts showing    

Pot 2--50 % liteway/ 50 %charcoal                   Stalk is 5/16th  and leaf is 7/16th.   4 sprouts

Pot 3--50 % liteway/ 50% JF BioCarbon            Stalk is 1/2      and leaf is 1/2         3 sprouts

Pot 4--75 % liteway/ 25 % JF BioCarbon           Stalk is 1/2      and leaf is 9/16th    5 sprouts

Pot 5--straight garden soil                                Stalk is 1/4      and leaf is 1/4        1 sprout

Pot 6--50 % garden soil / 50 % JF BioCarbon    Stalk is 3/8th    and leaf is 9/16th   4 sprouts

Garden soil with 5 % charcoal                          Stalk is 1/4        and leaf is 3/16th   5 sprouts

Garden soil with 10 % charcoal                        Stalk is 1/2       And leaf is 1/2       5 sprouts

Garden soil with 20 % charcoal                       Stalk is 1/4        and leaf is 1/4        3 sprouts.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Not sure why the last pot with 20 % char is showing so poor.

I only measured the biggest sprout in each pot. Only pot 4 and the pot with 10 % charcoal had a consistent size on all 5 sprouts.
