Dan Kittredge - BioFarm 2018 - "Create Your Own Soil Inoculants"

[@GriffenNaif]

(Dan Kittredge) Making a compost tea Gather Soil under the healthiest plants in neighborhood "Making a compost tea or you don't even have to do that. You can just take your bucket of you know bucket of soil that's half-full cover it with water it up a little bit pour it out stick it in the tank and off you go right. You don't need to do anything fancy or complicated; you can simply go and immediately harvest from the ecosystem this broad spectrum of microbes. I like to suggest that the microbes that live in the soil are the ones who should be putting in the soil, and the microbes that live on the leaf surface so the ones usually putting on a leaf surface. And so I would suggest that if you are going to be getting microbes that you want to be using as a foliar spray for the plant leaf then you would instead of taking the soil out from underneath the plants you would be taking the leaves off of the plants and putting them in your bucket and following the same exact protocol"

Best tea I’ve used is bat guano, can apply as foliar spray too with no burn risk. If you bother watering you may as well feed simultaneously.

Love the common sense. Thank you.

Yea someone talking sense praise God

Great video, thank you

[@lifelover4484]

Thank you so much for this video as it has provided insights for me. I would like to add that there really shouldn't be a need for foliar spraying as, just like humans, health happens from the inside out and the sheen on those leaves is from what's going on inside the plant. Thanks again for the video. Peace.

Life here is more of a battle than a realm of ideals and ease

[@ZE308AC]

Should i add molasses to increase the microbes?

[@muhammadkallouj5638]

Water, minerals (sea water, wood ashes, rock dust) Melasses or cooked potato and the soil inoculant. Mix all together.

[@bernardhaboc4056]

no digging ? Just asking.

[@mmccrownus2406]

@@bernardhaboc4056 Digging is not a problem if immediately planted and also inoculated with microbes

[@RT-hl4uk]

Beautiful, I get it. Thank you!

[@KimClark-1]

Elegant.

[@hosoiarchives4858]

Dont the plants just attract the right microbes?

[@michaellopez-lq5fn]

If you’re putting seeds into soils that have been treated with fungicides and such the microbes needed will have been killed off

[@ksenijashka]

Pour it out stick it in a tank...?

[@katateo328]

hahhaha, great idea :D:D extremely simple but useful.
