    The little bopper, micro brew “2”

    If your going to do this you owe it to your self to see and understand what youve really made. A decent microscope whether purchased or borrowed will help you imensly. I read where the purest will monitor the tea on the hour as it gets close to get the desired ratio of the critters they want. Im...

    The little bopper, micro brew “2”

    Heres another version of a diy tea maker, anything important is shown in the 3 pictures. The clear water picture was taken with only one gallon of water in the bucket because when its full itll throw most of it out on the floor, thats called “breaking the surface tension”. You cant do that with...

    Rose is growing

    “A Rose by any other name would smell as sweet” from R&J by My Shakey. Im not the purist Shakesphear was, i like the smell of all things growing! Im sure my olfactory would be excited wandering thru that other jungle you got going too. Its pretty well over up here for the year, now ill be...

    Ive never used 3s so i cant say. 7s were my smallest. they'll be fine and this is one of them things you'll form an opinion on and possibly change next time, or not. Personally i go with mol/ water for 2 to 3 weeks before including any bottled nutes. I say including because the mol is part of...

    5 gallon micro-brewer DIY

    Volume not pressure. Regerative blowers, got mine from Synergy agricultural products, santa rosa! Dr. Elaine Ingam, a good source of information. Mostly one of them cant pronounce all the words, gotta read it twice thingies. Agreeing with Gloman here, and to be sure its more than a nutrient...

    Week 1

    Speaking about rambling on, several pages ago you mentioned not looking for un sulphered mol. I meant to throw in but probably got to rambling in a different direction. Sulpher is a great insecticide, your microbes are microscopic imsects, see the connection? Now that your sphincter has relaxed...

    Being a machinist and having a machine shop in my garage, stainless steel is not hard to come by, i didnt mention that part. Im in 15 gallon pots this time and am finding i only water 1 time a week! I dont own a ph meter and have a ppm meter around here somewhere but never use it. If your a...

    Week 1

    Early on i ran a piece of hose from the air pump down imto the bucket fastened to a hunk of steel to keep it on the bottom and pointed away from the side, worked fine. I run two of these tea machines, the big bopper can be seen elsewhere and its for when i need 40 gal! The little booper is a...

    Retirement project

    Traveled thru Jersey in the late 60's, never had a desire to live there. Of course "the garden state" may have had a draw if id seen anyything other than Ft Dix and the interstate going thru to Boston. Thanks Rose, and Umbra for stoping by.

    Week 1

    People have their own opinions, some vary. I use the mol in microbe tea also but then once you brew up a bunch of microbes what do you do with them? You dump um on the dirt where they go to work. When you water with mol/ water you dump it on the dirt too, nen the microbes utilize it. Theres...

    The white house

    Another week down the road. Im happy enough with the soil recipe that ive decided to mix a mega batch and let it set all winter to be used for all the greenhouse stuff in the spring. Im holding my breath at the same time cause they always look good at this stage and a lot can happen yet. This...

    Week 1

    Im not familiar with the lambert but it looks fine to me. I only use mycos in the hole at transplanting, spray it good with a mister bottle and be sure it comes in contact with the roots. Personally i dont apply any after that. Your past that now so dont worry about it. Dont be nervous about...

    Week 1

    Your fist line made my day. "Ive decided against nutes fir now". I was nervous that you might swing the pendulium hard the other direction and dump a bunch of stuff on em that furthered your problem. Bx is good, contains myco which is what i hoped your answer about "the fresh powder" would be...

    Leibigs law of the minimum

    A little dated but probably more important than ever. So many new growers dumping gallons of who knows what on their stuff and most miss the very simple truths.

    Deputies say woman stole marijuana that washed up on beach

    Heck she looks like a good public servant to me. She understands that some poor soul got all his fingers chopped off for loseing these packages and shes obviously sampling to determine worth. I bet she sells most of that then donates the money to the first guy she sees with both hands all...

    What could this be?

    In our case i got rid of ALL the bad stuff or even suspect areas, then cut down the plant took it in the house and trimmed it down to just branches containing good buds which were hung to dry under a fan. It sounded urgent to get it dried quick to prevent further loss. From what i read you dont...

    Im with Pcduck, its long gone by then. However if refrigeration prevents it from going annerobic it may still have some value as a nutrient tea, depending on the starting ingredients. And while we're picking on you tell me about the "fresh powder"?
