Reviewing My First Johnson Su Video

[@dustygossett104]

Amen Brother! I love it, keep up the good work.

[@raypetersen1517]

Keep it up. All of it. God bless you

[@FrazzleDazzle9]

Enjoying your authenticity - suggest you make videos of how you do things as that would be very helpful. Greetings from China

[@youngredangus6041]

Thanks

[@apostle57]

Thanks for the content. As a farmer I can relate. Sounds like like you are experiencing the words of Jesus."The Truth will set you Free". I have turned some other farmers onto your channel . They are going to try it and blame me if they fail. Blessings Bro.

Tell them they have the wrong mindset. It’s been proven to work all over. They need to put in the work to figure out how to make it work in their place

[@jeffschmucker1640]

Jay, Doing things like this where you are making sure to highlight errors or a misstatement in a previous broadcast is something that I wish our legacy media personnel would attempt. It takes a person with a small ego but tremendous faith to do so and as a result, the viewer can have a more complete understanding of the subject. This action alone will encourage more people to try making Johnson Su compost and that’s a very good thing. A couple tons a year extracted and applied to seeds all over the place will eventually have a noticeable positive impact on the environment we all share. If we are to be good stewards of the gift God gave us, we must use the curiosity he also gave us to make that stewardship manifest. He told us everything we know which was enough to get started, he gave us a brain to discover the rest so we may be fulfilled.

[@youngredangus6041]

Thanks Jeff! I agree

[@joshuazimmerman8241]

I am blessed by your faith, we need to encourage each other to be bold, I would like if you would do a detailed video of how your equipment is setup to make this compost tea flow to each row equally, I would be happy to pay you for your time.

Thk u for sharing your content . We enjoy it and learn from it

I think the mychorizal component in the Johnson Su comes from spores released from the woody part of the mix.

With the top dressing discussion around the 9 minute mark, there are several things going on. Armoring the plant is just the first action. The others are competition, consumption and inhibition. First off. Start with a good compost. Don't put anything anerobic on your plants. The bacteria and fungal hyphea in the spray are very sticky and stick on contact with the plant. When you do the top dressing spray you want to cover all parts of the plant not just the top of the leaf but also the bottom side, the stems, buds and fruit. The action of the top dressing is to create a layer of competing Armor of aerobic ( high oxygen) micro-organisms like bacteria and fungi. This protective layer prevents any disease causing organisms from reaching the leaf surfaces. So they either starve and die or go dormant or get eaten. Disease causing micro-organisms grow under anerobic (low oxygen) conditions. This may be occuring in the soil around the plant and they can be carried up the plant through insects and other crawlers. Aerobic bacteria and fungi compete with any living anerobic organisms through competition, consumption and direct inhibition through production of anti-biotics. Some bacteria, actinobacteria, produce a huge number of known and unknown anti-biotics. It's like microbe-to-microbe hand-to-hand combat. But since there is a miniscule amount produced, antibiotics stay localized to that one active bacteria fighting it out with an anerobe. Under aerobic conditions, the anerobic bacteria and fungi shut down and go dormant providing a ready food source for the now actively thriving aerobic micro-organisms including protozoa and nematodes. The poop of protozoa and nematodes feeding on any bacteria or fungi is what feeds your plants. The nitrogen cycle is really interesting. Most of the nitrogen in your soil is contained in the proteins of the microbiology in the soil, not the sands, silts or clays. This is in addition to the boat load of nitrogen shown on the chemistry report. Right in that facultative range where both aerobic and anerobic organisms can survive, they directly compete with each other for food sources. As long as you keep the conditions aerobic the bad guys get starved out, consumed, out produced and inhibited and away from your plant.

You said lotts of great information, student of Elaine Ingham? I practice both aerobic and anaerobic, dont forget that the number one microbe, lactobacillus, is anaerobic. Some of the best and diverse soil has both systems implemented where it is aerobic but uses the anaerobic microbes as food, like you said, but its signaling for the aerobics and plants. The best way to get into anaerobic is through the use of bokashi fermented compost, then running that through a worm bin. Check out JADAM farming to see that anaerobic farming, when done right, can get fantastic results for pennies on the dollar.

[@dougayers7517]

@@2100suprafreak Thanks for the comment. The main point is to restore what is missing from a natural highly functional ecosystem where healthy plants are covered with aerobic organisms. lactobacillus is facultative. So it's both aerobic and anerobic and an indicator of things going anerobic. Bokashi, I can only imagine how that smells? How big is your pile? What volume of waste are you processing? What kind of waste are your processing?

Great way to get ready for a Super Bowl!!!!

Lol Thanks!

You were so excited!

I'm working on a Aerated Static Compost setup

[@mattkavanaugh9550]

Have you thought about getting any compost material from forest ground to increase mycellium ? Thinking about trying it in compost

[@Nightowl5454]

Have you added free living nitrogen producing bacteria to amend the soil? Most have gotten a 20 pounds an acre of nitrogen boost every year. A few have supposedly gotten 40 pounds an acre, I'm a bit skeptical of that much though, maybe some of it was because of carbon breaking down. I think a lot more research will be needed to get more information and try to further develop the bacteria species involved.

[@youngredangus6041]

Their are hundreds of bacteria that brings the plant n in the bioreactors

[@southernblues]

So don't add food to the extract when going in furrow, but on foliar?

[@youngredangus6041]

That is my take. Tea is the best on foliar

[@texanautosales]

Regarding your desire to not come across as "forcing" your beliefs onto other people, one thing that can help is to say, "I believe," or "for me." Example: 1) My belief is that God wants us to be good stewards of whatever land we are on. 2) God wants us to be good stewards of whatever land we are on. The first statement let's people know that you are really speaking only for yourself and are not trying to put your worldview onto the listeners. The second statement can sound more like you are insisting that what you are saying *_IS_* the way things are for everyone. Aside from that, thanks for posting this review video. I think it's a great way to (a) stay humble and (b) get quality information out to the world.

[@youngredangus6041]

Thanks for the feedback and encouragement

[@dustygossett104]

Jay don’t change the way you express your faith for anyone. Stand strong and carry on brother. God thru Jesus is the only way!

Kills me that a simple wire-cage compost bin is pretentiously called a 'bioreactor' - how long have gardeners used wire cages? ~70+ years? The only difference from many people's backyard compost bin is adding ventilation - and while that's a key nuance, it hardly deserves to be called a 'bioreactor' let alone have a name attached to it with such reverence. How about calling what it really is - Passively Aerated Compost 'PAC', or No-Turn Composting 'NTC'. Your use of ICB totes and splitting into thirds is as at least as inventive from my perspective - far more useful for larger-scale composting.
