The 10-Week DMO Soil Revival Programme

Ten weeks of DMO for one hectare, a printed field workbook, and the discipline to bring one block of depleted soil back to life.

A guided commitment — not a once-off purchase. You commit a block, we ship the DMO and the workbook, and you walk the same hectare once a week for ten weeks.

About the programme

A commitment, not a click.

The programme is the smallest unit of soil restoration we’ll sell — one hectare, ten weeks, in sequence. Anything less and the biology doesn’t have time to take hold.

The 10-Week DMO Soil Revival Programme is built around one simple discipline: same block, same day, every week, for ten weeks. You walk the block, dig at a marked reference spot, score what you see in the workbook, then apply DMO at 300 L of mix per hectare. The point is not perfection — it is rhythm. Ten weeks of honest weekly records will tell you, with your own eyes, whether the soil is coming back.

It’s sold as a programme rather than a product because that is how the biology actually works. A drum of DMO sprayed once on tired soil is wasted money. A weekly application across ten consecutive weeks is what triggers the cascade — colonisation, activation, ecosystem — described in the Farmer’s Pocket Guide. So we ship enough DMO for ten weekly applications on a single hectare, along with the printed field workbook that walks you through each visit.

“Pick one block. Get the flow right. Let the difference speak for itself.”
What you receive

Everything you need for ten weekly visits.

One delivery, three things — the DMO, the workbook, and the support behind both.

  1. 01
    DMO — 250 L per hectareTen weekly applications at 25 L DMO per visit, diluted in 275 L of water for a 300 L/ha boom spray. Delivered up front; stored at the farm.
  2. 02
    The printed field workbook (~40 pages, A4)A preliminary soil test, the weekly cycle, and twenty dated log pages. Built to be carried, written in, and kept in the bakkie.
  3. 03
    A starting benchmarkUse the workbook’s preliminary soil test before week one to set a baseline — soil structure, water, site, inputs, crop and compost.
  4. 04
    The weekly discipline, on paperCheck first, then spray. One log page per week — date range, weather, soil scores, spray record, observations, next-week plan.
  5. 05
    Twenty weeks of pages for a ten-week programmeStandard window is ten weeks. Extreme conditions take longer; the workbook gives you log pages for up to twenty weeks so you don’t break rhythm.
  6. 06
    Companion access to the Farmer’s Pocket GuideThe science behind the practice — what DMO is, the four microbial groups, the three-phase cascade — included as a free PDF.
  7. 07

One hectare. Ten weeks. One block honestly worked is worth more than a whole farm half-treated.

The discipline behind the workbook

Check first, then spray. Same block, same day.

The whole programme is one weekly visit, repeated ten times — so the soil, the spray and your own observation stay in sync.

Soil that has been farmed chemically for years is not dead — it is switched off. Over the next ten weeks you switch it back on, one block at a time, by re-introducing the micro-organisms that make a soil a soil.

This is not a product to apply once and forget. It is a practice — a weekly visit, a weekly observation, a weekly application of DMO at 300 L of mix per hectare (25 L DMO to 275 L water). The visit comes first; the spray comes second. That order is the discipline. Recording what you see before you spray keeps the log honest, and it keeps you reading the soil rather than reading the bottle.

1Walk & dig

Walk the block; dig at your marked reference spot.

2Score the log

Rate moisture, compaction, drainage, the crop.

3Spray DMO

300 L/ha — early morning, never in rain.

4Log the spray

Date, amount, area; tick any new signs.

5Note & plan

Write what changed; plan next week’s visit.

Order the programme

One block. Ten weeks. Start when you’re ready.

The 10-Week Programme is supplied as a single order: 250 L of DMO for one hectare, plus the printed field workbook, delivered together. Pick a block, confirm the order, and we’ll ship — and from week one the rhythm is yours to keep.
