Well last week I added a stinging nettle fermentation to my tea after it was done brewing. I will also add fermentations of comfrey or cannabis just depends on the stage of the plant.

I would make the tea with water separate from the LAB. I add Ferments to my teas all the time though. I just wait till I am done brewing the tea, and mix them right before I water. Now I'm not 100% sure, but for some reason I think I remember reading that aerating Ferments is a big no no, it...

Damn Don those pics are making me wanna lick my damn screen. That is some of the prettiest flower I've seen for sure. Respect my brother!

Just topped all my plants. I then blended them up in a food processor with about a half gallon of water. Once everything is nice and pulverized, I transfer everything to a 1/2 gallon mason jar and add about 1 oz of molasses. Sometimes I don't even put in a full ounce. Seal up the jar and...

Happy ladies just got an SST, plus aloe, plus stinging nettle ferment! 3 more weeks till they get there 100 gallon pots in the greenhouse. Two strains: strawberry/banana kush and sour D/lemon kush. Mmmmmmmmm tasty.

Crazy...yeah I live in California, we don't really worry about that too much. There are some counties that claim no tolerance but it really doesn't matter. There is suppose to be a 99 plant limit too, but that is almost never followed by large grows haha. So crazy to me that law enforcement...

You sure it was the FEDS and not some punk ass neighbor? The feds are really only fucking with really big grows.

I'm not too sure about that. My gut says yes, but that's not based of any research or experience. What do you have going on?

Hey sorry my man been super busy. So my soil is based off Coots mix, but I've added more aeration and less castings then his 1/3 ratios. You pretty much answered my question though. The re amendment process is specific to what I'm doing and I know that. I just like asking what people are...

Hey Don as always your spreading that organic knowledge! Love it man! Was hoping you could talk a little about making bio char, I've never done it, but im really interested. Also, would you mind maybe discussing your practices for re-amending your soil after a season . Gracias as always!!

DE is awesome, u could also make a garlic and lavender extract and root drench with no problem

Sst is the jam, I pretty much always have seeds sprouting during the season. I love compost teas too though, but I don't use them nearly as much as the SSTs. However, the last month of flower I really like to hit the ladies with compost tea that I "spike" with my homemade fungal flats. It...

Having bubbles or foam is not the mark of a great tea just a heads up. It's a good thing to have, but not having your tea foam up isn't a big deal. Now if you think the smell of your tea is off than that is something to worry about. Unfortunately there is no way for someone to really tell you...

@hyroot was wondering if you have ever fermented horsetail? It's loaded with silica and makes a wonderful amendment. I'm wondering though if one fermented horsetail if the resulting concoction would resemble Pro Tekt. I know that I have read that when fermenting a plant only the primary...

I have three FPE'S of nettle going, and I swear my wife almost puked today when I opened them. Outside only now haha. At least now she stopped paying attention to the fungal flats I have going. The Nettle FPE'S Smell Way worse

When I top my plants, or clean out the middles/remove lower branches I save everything and blend it up in a food processor with water. I then either ferment that for a month or just let it soak for a week in a bucket and add it to my next feed. The plants LOVE both. I usually have enough to do...

So I am a huge advocate of Sprouted Seed Teas, or SST for short. I make at least one a week for the whole plants life cycle. Next year I will be doing two every week I think. But I rotate my SST'S between wheatgrass and barley. And I also switch my process up sometimes too. Sometimes after...

Yes but planting on July 19th has nothing to do with how far along they are in flower. Planting on July 19th means they won't get to veg very long and get huge. Plants flip with the sun outdoors. In northern California that happens around the first week of August. Now I did say that I don't...

@keepsake also some other herbs to focus on for your run.....yarrow, chamomile, Valerian and dandelion. Don't sleep on making a simple kelp meal tea also. That works wonders....I use an alfalfa and kelp tea through first 3 weeks of flower.Then drop the alfalfa till their finished. Peace!

If you are interested in making a FPE I will always recommend comfrey. Comfrey, water, and a splash of molasses. I use less than a tablespoon for a half gallon. I keep my jar sealed, and I open it twice a day, so it won't explode. Let it sit for a month this way. Dilute and use. Start with...
