When you maximize the soil potential, you maximize the plant potential.
- 46 lb celery
- 18 lb carrots
- 35 lb cabbage
- 60 lb swiss chard
- 35 lb zucchini
- 40 potatoes from 1 plant
Healthy plants resists bugs and slugs from eating them. Plants that don't have to spend energy fighting off pests and diseases can focus all their resources on growing bigger. And if you maximize the soil's potential, it will maximize the plant's potential.
Feed the soil, not the plant. Using compost tea to deliver the nutritional equivalent of 500 lbs of compost. All the micro-organisms in the soil are stimulated to such a high point that they give the plant the maximum food for it's production. And more food for the soil means bigger, tastier, healthier veggies. In fact, they are ultra healthy, as measured by their brixx level, which is the amount of plant sugar they contain. In the grocery store, most plants have a Brixx level of between 6 and 10. These plants weigh in at a whopping 20, which means they taste more than twice as good, and are not stringy.
When the compost tea, it causes a bio-film that protects the plant from diseases and insects. Get the largest yield possible. To get their special formula, go to www.bountea.com
Applying Compost Tea is a simple way to grow food in greater abundance. Anyone can do it, once you learn how.

Well, the tea may help, but I lived up there and Palmer is famous for its huge veggies, whether you use tea or not, the 19 hours of sunlight right up to Midnight in June, the glacial rich organic soils of the Matanuska Valley makes Palmer the world record holder for growing mammouth veggies.

Quite interesting. I've spent time in Palmer and was impressed with the amazing gardens. Long cool days and rich, glacial soil make gardening look easy. It's a a short intense season but conditions are nearly laboratory perfect for cool season gardening. Here in Georgia I've been developing a garden method that is turning out well. Since I drive a dump truck , I find dairy farms with composted manure and layer my garden about a foot thick. And then comes the secret. The local feed mill has scraps that can be bought for less than .08 a lb. Cover your compost with an inch of corn meal/ soybean meal scraps and your entire garden becomes a wormbed.

What he also doesn't explicitly say is that that plants that he sows are selected for genetic strains that grow larger than average. Know what happens if you sow carrots in compost and water daily with compost tea? You get the hairiest, most mis-shapen (yet quite edible) carrots. You literally have to "shave" them before you process them.

Heres the reason why his plants are thriving. Its all about the particle size, availability and amount of the base nutrients. The filaments at the ends of the roots of plants are tiny and also harbor a symbiote fungus, the role of the fungus is to reduce the size of available minerals and nutrients that the plant requires to grow. His mixture contains compost, MICRO nutrients, sugars and bacteria. The sugar feed the bacteria the bacteria break down the micro nutrient to COLLOIDAL nutrients(very very micro small) these smallest of sized of micro nutrients are what the plant will thrive on. You can also see the effect of the bacteria begin to transform the local soil into better hydrating, deeper profile and better ph as the bacteria and fungus are breaking down rock to soil. Hence eating this food provides all the same increases as the plant received.

I'm sure the vegetation he grows still contain all of the nutrients and vitamins naturally occurring because of his organic green thumb and space. I am familiar with natural gardening. While they don't grow that big, they grow big enough and are not water lodged unlike the ones at the grocery. So it's not unlikely that a trained green thumb could produce such a lush garden. Your compost is key. :)

Hi, almost sure what is in it. Molasses for the sugar, blood & bone meal, dried poultry manure and something for the nitrogen (used coffee grains work well, rinse them after use to get rid of acidity). Also you can use powdered milk. There is also magnesium that gives a blue green to leaves. Most commercial fertilisers focus on NPK. The more minerals in balance the healthier the plant. This is low strength biological fertilizer. Given often. Need more info them message me. Cheers.

I agree, a farmer that wants to label his products "Organic" must pay for approval , where one using corporate chemical products does not. there is another term one can use, but not as popular, "Biodynamic" or use "naturally grown", the word "organic" seems to have become "owned". growing naturally does not have to be more expensive than commercially grown, in reality it could actually cost less.

What sugars and nutrients? Commercial fertilizer? I prefer not to use commercial fertilizer. I have a gravel area around my shop, and had a problem with weeds that herbicides won't kill. I found too little gravel on top of the dirt. But the dirt was loose enough to scrape up about 3 inches of dirt and gravel. If sifted out the gravel, and got about 3 cubic yards of soil. I was curious as to how good this soil is. In late July I planted a few squash and okra seeds just to see what would happen. Wow! humongous plants. May be too late for a crop. But I just wanted to see how good the soil is. Also, use rainwater instead of chlorine, fluoride, etc city water. But even rainwater is polluted with barium, aluminum oxides that our government denies spraying in the chemtrails.

Blackstrap molasses is a good source of the sugars required, the rest is just worm poo (plus whatever secret ingredients John uses) You can find videos all over KZbin on how to make worm tea, it's totally organic, no pesticides or added fertilizers. If you find Liquid Gold (real worm tea) in the shops for sale - don't buy it. Real liquid gold can only be made and used almost immediately because it is a living culture. If it's in a bottle on a shop shelf it's dead - or a rip off imitation

I don't think it's the compost tea necessarily doing the trick, I think it could be the aerator. It adds some oxygen into the water and that in combination with loose soil could be gold mine considering he likely has the right nutrients. Still, 19hr days would complete the job lol.

With all of that sun, they plants are constantly in a growth phase.

wow nice dude, but yeah for the laymen who dont know much about growing giant seeds yield more with out having to know to much about plant biology, i doubt you can get enormous yields with seeds from a store bought item, the seeds really have to be of the best quality if u even want to attempt getting 100lbs + but yeah man i was just saying giant seed types because it would be much easier to get those yields with those kinds of genetics

There giant because it stays light out so long in the day in summer in Alaska.

+Brendan Johnson Yes, but the intensity of the light is lower than it would have been if grown closer to the equator. Judging by the temperatures in the north (even summer temperatures with longer days), I'd say plants near the equator still get more light.

All of it is in the soil, the soil is like the stomach. If you put enough good food in there, you could become like Arnold Schwarzenegger. Meaning eating healthy for humans works the same way with plants. Feed them the right food is the best way.

I've studied university chemistry.. Be careful with that liquid fertilizer compost stuff.. It works fantastic, when used in a day or two, but it makes some very powerful bacteria in a couple weeks in the barrel.. Some splashed on my skin, and in ten minutes there were itchy red spots where something was voraciously eating into my skin everywhere it touched my skin.. Accidentally splashing some on an eye might damage or destroy an eye.. Wear rubber gloves and goggles, and be focused when handling that dangerous stuff.. And don't be smoking nor eating nor drinking, nor touching your face when handling it.. Don't get any of it on the tops of the plants, or you'll be eating it.. and who knows what diseases it could cause inside..? That stuff is very Powerful!.. Handling that stuff requires basic hazmat bio-hazard handling techniques.. Surf "hazmat bio-hazard handling technique" on the Net before handling the stuff.. It ain't for accident-prone people, fools, nor the kiddies to handle...
