The single bucket that standardizes your entire garden's nutrient cycle
In short: Stop guessing your garden's needs. This method uses a single standardized bucket to measure both what you take from the earth and what you return to it.
Huw Richards developed this technique to simplify the management of compost and mulch requirements. By standardizing measurements to one specific bucket, gardeners can create a consistent system for assessing soil amendments.
The system serves a dual purpose: it acts as a precise measuring tool for applying materials to the garden and as a production metric for tracking how much organic matter the gardener can generate. This approach removes the guesswork from maintaining soil health.
