Last Saturday morning we sprayed the Biodynamic Preparation 501 also known as Horn silica. #BD501 increases plant immunity, strengthens photosynthesis and is prepared from ground quartz crystals buried in a cow horn over the summer months.

In the early morning with the moon opposite of Saturn we started with lighting up the fire bath and energised the water with the silica in it. When the sun was rising we sprayed it up and over the young shoots in the vineyard having fine droplets to collect as much sunlight as possible.

With the moon in Taurus last Tuesday we made our compost pile.

Layering green and brown materials (grass, hay, mulchings from the vines / oak / olive / apple / wattle / willow) woody stalks from Fennel / Fathen / Thistles / dock with the grape marc from last vintage, cow slurry and sheep manure, our own made bio char, basalt, egg shells and the biodynamic preparations.
All but a few from our own property.
This will turn into compost that we can spread around the vineyard to improve soil health.

Thanks everyone for a great day and all the help!
