Unlocking Nutrient Gold: Transforming Compost into Powerful Compost Extract

[@sesolar5854]

Always enlightening! Thank God for the good scientists among us.

[@denisebrady6858]

I learn from every single video- Thanks Heaps.

[@craigcurry5104]

Thx you Billy for the timely Info making some tea this weekend. Once again thank yall from my family to yours have a wonderful and fantastic weekend.

[@wingrider1004]

I love this channel...by following the advice here I have had a bumper crop in my little yard food forest...with so many good resources, especially Billy and company, why isn't everybody getting back to growing their own food and revitalizing the earth. And as I have mentioned before...my Comfrey (which I got the idea from Billy) is growing like a weed. I use it to feed my hens, fertilizer, and compost. It rocks!

[@busker153]

This was a joy to watch. I have studied Dr. Ingham's stuff extensively, and am just over two years growing here in the hot, dry desert of Tucson, AZ.

[@gsmscrazycanuck9814]

I did a video similar to this a few years ago. I made the brewing process as cheap and effective as possible so anyone could afford it even on a home garden scale. You can grow biology so rapidly that the solution fisses, but you need to feed the system properly and maintain the proper parameters. I hope to be set up here by next year so I can get back to the trials and solutions to soil and plant health.

[@camicri4263]

Thanks guys, really appreciate your help and video content 🤗🤗💕🤗🤗

[@InappropriateShorts]

10:39 YES! I have ALL KINDS OF MUSHROOMS growing out of my soil. Potted plants & ground alike. The aeration is 100% not necessary but imma sit at the foot of the teacher & see how you do it 🧑🏾‍🌾

[@misterdubity3073]

At one point in some talk, I think I heard Elaine Ingham say you get a lot more oxygenation by having liquid fall from a height into the rest of the liquid rather than pumping air bubbles. So pump liquid up to a waterfall, rather than pumping air. Of course then, the liquid goes all through your pump and I'm not sure how you clean it. This was for low flow rates rather than the "whirlpool bath" going on in the piece of equipment shown. I think the context was for a longer 'brew' like 24 hour tea, if I remember correctly.

[@davidradovanovic1087]

Hello greetings from Serbia. I have a question. What you put in lunch box for fungus feeding? Thanks, I like your videos. 😊

[@kentuckysustainableliving3583]

As soon as I think I’m getting a handle on learning you bring so much more to the table

[@busker153]

LOL@ Beat up from the feet up

[@dillonahrens7857]

What did you use to make the food for the fungi?

[@sixfigurebookkeeper7588]

“that BOMB compost” you make compost exciting - love it🎉

[@PermaPasturesFarm21]

Thanks a lot my friend!

[@Autumnswirl71]

LOL :) I hope you have a plan in place for all the tree fruits you are gonna have in a few years.

[@mrs.h3]

This Is great information! Hey, I wanted to say rhank you! Because of your videos, you have inspired my husband to start his own business. Thank you again, and God bless!

[@PermaPasturesFarm21]

Love to hear it my friend. Thanks so much for watching. God bless!

[@debrasfrugallife3703]

That cheap grass tea works well to I use it tomato plants and my flowers are growing like crazy in this heat

[@debrasfrugallife3703]

I love you guys showed the micros up close definitely shared this to my home school friends.

[@1millionpumpkins542]

We love the microscopy and the facts n figures, keep it coming!

[@PermaPasturesFarm21]

Will do my friend. Thanks for watching!

[@patkelly9711]

Used my extract on our sweet corn ,in the furrows on the seed with no fert..best corn ever had especially in a drought

[@KeepOnGrowin]

Great info! I am in the process of going down the Elaine Ingham rabbit hole. Feed the soil.

[@PermaPasturesFarm21]

Thanks a lot my friend!

[@Andluth]

Thanks for making the video! What did you add to the mixer to feed the fugal growth?

[@AboveandBeyond44]

Special Reserve Content. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

[@MrTonybonez]

Awesome that you mentioned that book! I finished that series last year, very eye opening.

[@keithsnow]

milk buyaaaaaaay

[@robertromatowski6938]

Great information. By the way, you are looking jacked!!

[@PermaPasturesFarm21]

Appreciate it my friend

[@robertromatowski6938]

@@PermaPasturesFarm21someone brought guns to the garden show....seriously, you are looking great!! A few years ago, I found the channel when COVID was just starting...now the company i work for (staffing the ER) just went bankrupt, so I may be doing more "permaculturing" over the rest of the year than I had thought. Could be worse I guess!

[@busker153]

Be encouraged. While teas are for foliar applications because of the extra stickiness of them all doing the wild thing in the tea bubbler, you did notice that the extract liquid that ran over the leaves did not all drain off? Some of those microbes did stick to your leaves. It is not the best, but going for a ground application gave you a small foliar application as well. "How good is that?"

[@morningmystfarm2017]

So I'm curious - what was it you "fed" the brew?

[@donnachildress2231]

I was wanting to ask this also

[@the_green_anna]

Me too!

[@rickthelian2215]

Thank you Billy, Michelle and Micheal, I really see the beneficiary action of the brew, a great use of the compost in small amounts that can go a long way in improving the soil and being beneficial to the plants. Honestly I’ve tried similar on a small scale but not with air-ration but have thought of another way with a small air compressor (low Kia) to air-rate the brew. Remember it doesn’t stop with compost, you can use other materials, but I don’t have access to a microscope but smell and results will be my marker as you showed with mushrooms Billy. Thanks guys & girls

[@PermaPasturesFarm21]

Of course my friend! Thanks so much for watching!

[@MK-ti2oo]

Compost tea is when you've added the food and aerated. Compost extract is just the dunking/soaking of the bag of compost in the water.

[@phaizonosborne2806]

This was an awesome video

[@PermaPasturesFarm21]

Glad you enjoyed the video my friend!

[@michaelhoggard591]

Very interesting info Billy! Thank you for all these great ideas and updates!!

[@the_green_anna]

I am very curious of what you used to "feed the fungi"? Waited for you to mension it, but in vain...😄 Very interesting!

[@InappropriateShorts]

This is like DTG’s feted swamp water but different

[@lynnjasmine3216]

Another great one!

[@PermaPasturesFarm21]

Appreciate it my friend!

[@busker153]

I've had a sprayer. I actually prefer the watering can. Odd, I know.

[@BF4TehWin]

Do you incorporate any of Matt Powers' stuff in what you do? I was seriously considering doing Elaine Ingham's course then I saw him on Jack Spirko's podcast. From a complete layman's perspective he seems to be doing the same stuff as her and expanding on it at a cheaper price.

[@andy1-26]

You beat me too it 😊 Didn’t look at the price but he continues where she left off. He’s identifying the different types of fungi, bacteria, and life in order to target what, where, when and how to regenerate and improve on what is there.

[@deborahmcsweeney3349]

So is it okay to do this going into winter like right now? I'm a zone 6. Also does this not burn the leaves? I know when I have done compost tea I have to dilute or it will burn them. Excellent information! Thank you!

[@Jerry-yk1fh]

Question, you talk about a microscope, os that included in yhe purchase of the course? Of not what is the price of the microscope Thanks

[@Yahya100x100]

I am fascinated by this video but i also wished you would have told us what was it you feed the fungus. You missed that part 😊

[@jordanhuguenard8315]

I would love for yall to test out the JADAM method of this, it's different but the principle is the same and it's anaerobic but still yields amazing beneficial microbial activity

[@lindseyloo6619]

How do you test your compost?

[@kansquatch]

👍

[@briankubik5041]

JLM knf?

[@davidpritchett855]

Please don't take this as criticism just confusion. So I've heard Dr Ingham talk on multiple times saying you don't want to using impeller pumps, why not just use an air pressure as back pressure similar to the 2 gallons manual pump sprayer? Additionally you said that your pasture is bacterial dominant and you can't use to much bacterial eating nematodes. Just thinking like a normal ecology, if you throw too much predators in an ecosystem then you get prey population crash followed by predator collapse. Does this not happen with bacteria? I know microbial life is so mind boggling high population maybe this just doesn't matter. Additionally a small top I've been doing David the goods fetid swamp water and it's helped. Miracle grow sells a fertilizer injector at most Lowe's or ace. I pull the nozzle inserts out of the bottles and you can put them in a 2 liter soda bottle or any other bottle that uses a soda bottle style cap like some of the fancy waters and use your own liquid fertilizer. It's like 30 dollars and has held up well for me for the last 3 years and works very well with the percussion sprinklers but works best on geared sprinklers. Thank y'all so much for all the great info. Elaine's courses are on the list of goals for the near future.

He drink it because he is hot, hairy, and a dog

[@jackzzz2885]

Riddle me this my ninja from another momma bear.... Why are crypto farms above ground and not under the ground just like our nutrient tanks should be?
