When Weeds Talk

Jay L. McCaman

$40.00

This is the 2nd edition of the book formerly titled Weeds and Why They Grow. Acres U.S.A. has long shown that weed control lies in fertility management. Every weed grows in a somewhat narrow window of allowable soil conditions. For the first time, hundreds of weeds of commercial importance are detailed along with the chemical analysis of accompanying soils. For example, burdock grows in soils with very high levels of iron and sulfate, very low levels of calcium and manganese. Balance the soil, lose the weed.

A Good Service Provided and a Good Read at the End.

The book was easy to other and was here faster than I was expecting. So only good things to say about ACRES USA. Heard about When Weeds Talk years ago and had read many exserts of it over the years, but just wanted to have it on the shelf. After I'd read it that is! However its still not made it to the shelf. Always good to read what others think. A good read and will always be a reference for the future.

Love the book

Great. I feel I have a handle on issues with my soil. I have not found this kind of information anywhere else.

Weeds tell a story.

This book helps with understanding the signs of deficiencies in soil.

When weeds talk

I bought multiple copies for interns on my farm that are looking at farming on their own. It carries so much more information on what’s happening in our soil.
