What do you think about growing a lawn using alfalfa? Has anyone tried this? This is a great way to chop and drop mulch and source of nitrogen.

I would like to do this. Any suggestions?

I was thinking this will be too much of green sticks instead of green grass, assuming I cut and maintain at 1-2 inches like lawn.

Have not seen geoff's video, but i tend to refer to regenag and the works of Dr Elaine Ingham (for 9-10 density). These guys are both approved advisor under the soil food web certification, Dr Elaine has some great audio books on soils etc, Paul Taylor with his 30 years+ experince is writting a composting manual ,which will no doubt be a valuable resource.

Nice video on how to make compost.

No mention was made on Soil other than that he can use the 1 ton compost made as tea on 100 hectares to inoculate for microbial and fungal activity
