The EW Podcast - Jack Higgins with Michael Clifton - A Little Goes A Long Way

Jack Higgins sits down with Michael Clifton, owner of Chesapeake Grounds, to talk about how EarthWorks principles have helped shape a growing nursery operation built around biology, carbon-based fertility, and healthier plants.

Michael shares how he moved from managing roughly 200 acres of turf into growing annuals and perennials, developing a system that combines Myco-Replenish 3-3-3, Replenish 3-4-3, Sea3, ProteinPlus, Trilogy, CalVantage, MagVantage and biological growing media. The conversation gets into propagation, soil blending, irrigation, EC management, foliar feeding and why a little fertility applied consistently can often outperform pushing plants too hard.

It is also a fascinating look at how the same Soil First concepts used on golf courses and landscapes can translate directly into greenhouse and nursery production.
