From that article, it appears as though after inoculation and the initial 14 day battle for supremacy in your soil, you'll be good to go. Phosphorus and all other minerals will be readily available. Seems like it would also counter-act any Sodium in Coco as well.
Sounds like how I ended up doing it without knowing what I was doing or why. Now I'd like to find non-mined sources for P, but most of what I find readily available is bat shit. I need to know that it's being harvested sustainably and with the least disturbance to the bats, or they'll go batshit.
If I understand what I'm reading currently, also, in order for P to specifically become available, microbe or fungal action is absolutely required.
The cow analogy is cracking me UP, too. When I was very young, we're talking about 5yo or so (back in '69 I'd say, I was into the Monkees back then, I still remember) I had a friend whose mother came over to ask my mother a very important question--where does CHOCOLATE MILK COME FROM? My mother stood there and told this woman, "Brown cows" and she bought it! I was stunned that my mother stood there and lied to that woman like that, and just as stunned that this woman didn't already know where chocolate comes from, not to mention milk, not to mention that all milk comes out white from any color cow.
Mom's response? "If she's that stupid, I'm going to tell her what amuses me." I've taken that with me for all the following 40+ years since.
Nope, just the soft rock phosphate applied directly to the soil, then mixed in with bennies and other stuff.
You should hear some of the stuff my husband will tell people, especially younguns, and they believe him! Blows me away every time. I guess it's all in the delivery.
