It's a beautiful book that's full of all the information you soil-less gardeners have been asking for, and more. It's fun and easy to read. In fact, it's easier than ever to start and have success with a soil-less garden. Those of us on staff who have been working with soil-less gardens for years are already eternally grateful for this book.
For those of you wondering, "What is a soil-less garden?" and "What is all the fuss about?"
A soil-less garden is how you apply the principles of co-creative science to every aspect of your life: business, education, the arts, the home, research, your job, personal and professional projects and goals . . . all those gardens in life that are not rooted in soil. It's how you work with nature to achieve any goal you wish with extraordinary efficiency and balance.
From Machaelle's Introduction to the Perelandra Soil-less Garden Companion:
"I have written the Perelandra Soil-less Garden Companion because, quite frankly, those who have been working for years with the Perelandra soil-less garden processes in conjunction with their projects threatened to hit me if I didn't write something. And, after sitting down and looking at what they were complaining about, I had to agree — much to my dismay — that they were absolutely right to complain and threaten me. This Companion is going to make life a lot easier for everyone.
"If you are new to the idea of soil-less gardens (SLGs), let me explain what they are. Most likely you think I'm referring to hydroponic gardening. The soil-less gardens I'm referring to are projects and goals such as a business, job, home, classroom, education program, writing a book, delivering a speech . . . For more information on soil-less gardens and why we benefit from working in partnership with nature with this type of garden, read Co-Creative Science and watch the DVD/video, Working with Nature in Soil-less Gardens.
"And this brings me to an important point about the Companion. I call it 'companion' for a reason. It's not meant to replace the key soil-less garden information I've previously put out. Rather, it is to be used along with that information.
"In the Companion, I centralize important information, include some new SLG processes and update the Soil-less Garden Troubleshooting Process. As I put together the information in the Companion, I took the opportunity to streamline and simplify the SLG Troubleshooting Process and its steps. Along with this, I also introduce a Troubleshooting Process Chart that is specifically designed for the SLG Troubleshooting Process. You 'old timers' are going to love the new simplified balancing and stabilizing steps for each of the energy processes."
The SLG Companion includes:
• How to write Soil-less Garden DDPs (with examples)
• How to open, close, activate and deactivate SLG conings
• The new SLG Starting Process — Simple, step-by-step instructions on how to get started with any soil-less garden
• A new SLG Troubleshooting Chart with line-by-line instructions
• New and updated processes for SLGs
- Using ETS Plus for Soil-less Gardens
- Using ETS Plus for Soil
- Simplified Energy Processes for SLGs
- Simplified Balancing & Stabilizing Steps
• Additional SLG Troubleshooting Process Options
• How to work with "Intents Lists"
• SLGs questions and comments from the Perelandra Forums (with updated and refined answers from Machaelle)
• Kinesiology instructions with photos
• Updated SLG Calibration Process Steps (for individuals and groups)
• Blank Perelandra SLG Troubleshooting Charts
If you have steps from other Perelandra SLG material with differing instructions, use the information I’ve given you in the Companion. The Companion contains the latest and most up-to-date SLG information. Also, the new SLG Troubleshooting Process Chart and the streamlined energy processes steps are to be used with soil-less gardens only. Do not use them for Workbook II environmental troubleshooting or for the Microbial Balancing Program troubleshooting.
To work with a soil-less garden and the SLG Troubleshooting Process, you need
the following:
•
Working with Nature in Soil-less Gardens (DVD 3).
Contains critical SLG information and kinesiology demonstration.
•
Perelandra Soil-less Garden Companion.
Includes the updated information and steps to be used for the SLG Troubleshooting Process. Use in conjunction with DVD 3 and the SLG Chart.
•
Copies of the SLG Troubleshooting Process Chart.
You may download a free copy of this chart. Machaelle suggests printing 50 copies!
•
ETS Plus for Humans, ETS Plus for Soil-less Gardens and ETS Plus for Soil.
Brochures are included with each ETS Plus.
•
The Perelandra Essences: Rose Essences and Rose II Essences.
Perelandra Rose Essences and Rose II Essences are the two required sets for working with soil-less gardens. However, working with all five sets of Perelandra Essences provides more comprehensive coverage. Note: I am not referring to the Perelandra Essences you test for yourself. The Rose Essences and Rose II Essences only refer to the minimum needs for a soil-less garden.
•
Perelandra Nature Cards.
The Cards are especially helpful when we need to become "unstuck" and don't know what to do next.
