(IMO 1-2) Full Collection Process. KNF. Techniques for winter collections. Indigenous Microorganisms

[@djshadeyb]

I've watched many KNF process videos here on KZbin. Finding this one most complete with clear, precise details, and easy to understand. Great audio quality. nice work man.

[@rogueregenerativeagriculture]

thank you, i'm glad your finding value in the content. I'm always working to better my process and video quality.

[@AaronDashing]

Agreed

[@2BitRanch]

I have done Jadam for about 3 years and want to learn some KNF. Your video here is so much more easy to understand than a lot of the others. Thanks.

[@Dust2LivingSoil]

This is actually my third time coming back to watch this video once again, I like to rewatch videos and reread papers in order to obtain more information from them often times you learn so much on a daily and weekly basis that when you come back to something it may make more sense or give you an idea in order to Not only help yourself as a natural farmer but help the community to continue to grow and thrive and build out different ways of doing things different fermentation process and different end results. Because that’s the beauty of natural farming is that there is no end to it it’s just an Engine that you’re putting inputs into and seeing what the results are. Excellent work I love how you really try to find new ways to work with natural farming!

Great video Preston !

[@josht4741]

Great coverage of the topic.

[@RafaelStLucia]

really cool man. been doing natural farming in central brazil and love the personal insights and feedback that you bring. thank you very much

[@nastytechniquez9685]

Your the first person to mention avoiding rot resistant lumber when making these boxes which seems like a massive thing.

[@forthosewhoHUNGER]

It’s also a given.

[@nastytechniquez9685]

@@forthosewhoHUNGER some people don’t know that western red cedar and redwoods for example are quite rot resistant

[@TheSturdy1]

@@nastytechniquez9685some people reccomend the cedar so your box doesn’t have mold but your rice dies

[@nastytechniquez9685]

@@TheSturdy1 I’ve heard many say to use cedar as well. What they don’t realize is this all stems from the using “cedar” as it’s called in eastern countries but in the west we would call it a pine. Siberian cedar for example is a Siberian pine. It’s specifically western red cedar that I would not use personally, I also believe redwoods are similar for their rot resistance.

[@postupmedia]

Boxes are easy to make, you can use untreated wicker baskets, even cutting up pallets would work if its unttreated wood

[@probioticos3marias]

Nice friend

[@jamesfolsom7994]

Awesome video your passion really shines through

[@paulgreene1717]

Great detail. Thanx..!!

[@MagicinalExplorer]

My friend you’ve won my heart with your delivery of growing information 🤟🏽🍄👁️🤍

[@chiefetwful]

Nice!

[@elena2010111]

Very informative video. Keep making more videos please

[@mardirazzberry]

Great video really appreciate the clear information. I've been through Chris Trumps Certification class. This summer '23 I made and processed all the IMOs here in N. IL. My results were graded from me as "Meh", could do better, but wanted to go through all processes. I'd like to know if you've done the IMO4 Healing treatment. I tried but couldn't get my temps to go beyond 118° with pile hieght 18" high, may have had the ratios wrong. But was excited, curious and learned a lot. Please keep pushing out your videos sharing your experinces. We're watching 🤓. On a funny note my dogs joined me everytime I mixed the pile and would eat from the pile, soon enough their poop was blooming on the lawn, think I invented IMO6 😉🤣

[@ryanpalmquist4823]

Love your videos

[@lorenzobently6347]

Thank you for the great video. If I understood you correctly, you stated not to use anything with cedar? I have quite a few cigar boxes.

[@TheSturdy1]

Can you use brown rice ? I have brown sushi rice only and regular white rice

[@xthemadplumberx7110]

Riseapuss had an off putting taste at first, but I got used to it. My wife loved it though.

[@2BitRanch]

You have a Joshua Tree beanie. I'm about 15 min from there in Landers. :-) trying to learn to KNF in the desert.

[@rogueregenerativeagriculture]

Excellent! Yes I love that area.. natural farming can be adapted to any environment.

[@Not_So_Weird_in_Austin]

Look for thick layers of organic material. In Austin oak leaves can take 2-3 years to break down and you still capture local organisms to make IMO 1.

[@rogueregenerativeagriculture]

That is correct, and not just Austin that’s very common all over. However, if you can bury your box within the top 6” layer and completely cover it w/ leaves your chances of an “A” collection are better.

[@lucasnon1070]

Ty

[@fayjason]

How much liquid should be in my container after the IMO 1 has been sitting in the sugar. I keep seeing pictures of IMO2 and it looks fry.

[@greggrease1377]

Its good now

[@shamanking5195]

what has given you the best results IMO with the RICE or with JMS ???

[@FanNy-ku6wt]

Nice. Why don't you put some clumps of soil and dust directly in the box, in contact to the rice.

[@GenomX]

çünkü bu tür eylemler uyduruktur. :)

[@ray-yv9bh]

Can i apply molasses instead of brown sugar? Brown sugar is very expensive here

[@federicolopez8545]

Some say it works slightly differently but you Can supplement With some extra White sugar. They absolutely both work

[@paulgreene1717]

Any plans for an IMO 3 (or 4) video? GREAT detail and explanations so far. Thanx..!!

[@postupmedia]

Medium Grain rice works great and is more cost effective, no need to buy sushi rose or cal ropse or any of that. Just wash it good

[@rogueregenerativeagriculture]

@@postupmedia ya true- I have cultured IMO on many grains including quinoa, millet, oats, and barley, as well as acorn meal, so rice isn’t mandatory at all just the traditional way from Asia. Sushi rice in bulk is really the same price for me compared to others.

[@Trivdgun-]

IMO#1 - Innoculated Substrate IMO#2 - Sugar added - Dormant/Stable IMO#3 - Carb/Carbon+KNF Inputs IMO#4 - Soil/Compost+Inputs IMO#5 - Nitrogen+Inputs I don't think there is an IMO#6 but if there was...I would say biodynamic prep protocols might be interesting. IMO#6 - Biodynamic Prep + IMO#5 IMO#7 - IMO#6 + Green Manure

[@rogueregenerativeagriculture]

I like where your headed with this... Master Cho himself said his natural farming "system" was not yet finished.. I love the idea of mashing up KNF and biodynamic..

[@Xray.71]

Chris Trump said organic “brown” sugar……does organic white have similar properties?

[@rogueregenerativeagriculture]

@@Xray.71 this is not white (refined) sugar here, it’s a raw form sugar I’m using. Yes organic raw (least processed) as possible is the best practice.

[@Xray.71]

@ Ok awesome! I just assumed just like everything else under the KNF umbrella it uses the molasses in the sugar. Appreciate the response! I’m fairly new with the KNF way, next learning block is building IMO. I’m in Southwest Florida, we don’t have soil we have sand! Makes it worse is I’m only a few miles from the beaches. Dig down about 3-4’ and I’m hitting ground water.
