Subject: RE: soft coal

It is interesting that adding coal to the soil is an organic thing. :) When my town wanted to take a coal generator out of mothballs, the tree huggers went into a tizzy and brought busloads of folks from out of state in to protest how increadably awful terrible coal is. But, it's fine to mine & spread on the fields and be organic? Ah well.

I'm one of those doubting thomas' on stuff like this, but I've never tried it so I shouldn't judge.

I think on a garden scale one can probably get enough applied to possibly make some difference, but if you are farming 100 or 1000 acres I don't know that one can cost effectively use such products to any benefit? It seems like a teaspoonful into a barrelful wouldn't do much? It takes a big volume to make any real difference to 6 inches of topsoil.

I'd go for manure instead, if it were me. Soft coal just doesn't get my attention.
