Jacob Peterson
Deprogramming and understanding psyops for normal people

Following his honorable service Jacob finished his education earning a bachelor’s degree in criminal justice with a focus on homeland security and domestic terrorism, after which he decided it would be best to move to the country and start a business rather than continue his career path.
Today Jacob invests his time in getting training for himself and his growing family and on sharing what he has learned on YouTube and social media, working to help people understand the things they are already seeing, and that on the inside they likely already know.

Soil Testing Explained in a Way That Makes Sense With Stan Pace
Most soil tests are designed to tell you what fertilizer to buy. This talk shows you how to understand what your soil is really saying.
In this session, Stan Pace explains soil testing in a simple, practical way. He breaks down the difference between standard soil tests and more complete methods, and shows how to recognize the nutrients already present in your soil. You’ll also learn why soil structure, calcium balance, and biology are just as important as NPK levels.
The goal is to help you see your soil as a system—not just numbers on a page—so you can lower input costs, improve soil health, and make better long-term decisions.
