@raylang2996 3 жыл бұрын

@@ThahnG413 Don't let the smell put you off. The plants and soil life don't care how things smell. You can use it weekly or monthly. Just observe your plants. Be sure to dilute it at least 1:10 with water. You can spray it on the leaves (1:20 dilution) or use as a drench around the roots of the plants. The longer the liquid fertilizer sits the stronger it will get. Even a year. Here's a tip and I will use tomato as the example. First, do not pull the plant from the ground at the end of the season. Cut off at soil level. Bacteria and fungi have colonized around the roots and their habitat will be destroyed if the roots are ripped out of the ground. The roots will leave channels in the soil as they decay and are consumed by other bacteria and fungi. Plant next year's tomatoes in the same spot year after year. Chop up the plants and use them for liquid fertilizer for the next year. Throw in spoiled tomatoes, leaves, branches, everything. It will contain what tomato plants need. Add a good handful of soil from around a plant to the mix.

If you have plants you want pollinating in the garden, make sure you cut back your comfrey before it flowers. Bees will go for comfrey by preference and will often ignore other plants. I have 40 gallon covered barrels with just some scrunched up chicken wire mesh for drainage and a spigot at the bottom. Rough chop the comfrey and ram it tight into the drum ... do not add water ! ..... if this left in the sun the comfrey will decompose pretty quick and a black liquid will come out the bottom. This is a great tomato, flowering and fruiting plant, and general fertilizer and needs diluting by at least 5 to 1 in the watering can. This method is far less smelly than submerging comfrey in water. The level of comfrey drops considerably, so for the next few weeks I just keep adding more. I have a large comfrey plot and most years have 3 barrels on the go. Every year or so I treat the comfrey bed with some cow muck and composted wood chip.

On other video for example Soil Food Web from Dr. Elaine, they mentioned that if we are going to the forest to take some "leaf mold" just to get 1 cup, enough to bring back an inoculate and not 5 gallons. The microbes are going to multiply, all we need is the "colony" and diversity from the forest for us to grow at home. I am worry of a lot of people going into the old forest and digging 5 gallons of soil, you know how crazy human beings can be. Again, thanks for the info and this is a respectful advice.

Are we missing a trick with comfrey tea (or compost tea from other plants decomposed by anaerobic digestion)? My point is that the resulting "compost tea" must be diluted to a 1:10 ratio because using at 1:1 is likely to be too strong & kill the plants being treated. Therefore, is it not possible to use the 1:1 ratio as a weedkiller in several treatments to remove unwanted plants ? Has anyone tried this idea intentionally, or by accident, or have there been any botanical studies of this idea to determine whether it could be an effective application on a general range of weeds, or unwanted grasses? (However, I suspect that the toughest, deepest rooted grasses would be impervious).

I’ve been trying to find information on using LAB in this to mitigate the smell and improve the quality. Kinda like a green manure Bokashi. Today I harvested a bunch of banana and thought that this could be an easier way of processing the stalk for the compost pile. Cutting up the stalk in small pieces for a hot compost pile is a must and takes a lot of time, otherwise it’s nearly impossible to turn. For those who don’t know banana plants are extremely fibrous.Not to mention I have cloths specifically for the purpose of processing banana stalk, the juice staines and never comes out. So today I hacked it up in 1’ or less pieces, stuck the leaves in whole, piled it in a blue barrel, added a couple ounces of LAB and a splash of OHN, put a cinder block on top and filled with water and locked on the lid.🤞

@itsasickness4939 3 жыл бұрын

Updating my own comment, almost a week has past and at this point without LAB the stuff would be getting rank. This morning I slowly opened the barrel and was shocked. Not only is the material breaking down rapidly but the smell is what I can only describe as a sweet wine ferment. I will be checking it again in a week or so.

I have since found an easier way to compost banana stalk residue, I feed my worm farm with it. The worms absolutely love it and the resulting castings are fantastic. My goal wasn’t necessarily to create a good liquid fertilizer but rather find an easier way to compost the banana stalks. Not much easier than cut into 4’ pieces and stack into an old 5’ bathtub full of worms. Let the worms do all the work.

Interesting video but I've been seeing all kinds of garden "tea" concoctions and I don't think I understand what's really happening. In my mind, if I just put the raw component on top of my garden bed, precipitation, worms and microbes break the basic components down into plant bio-available nutrients. I haven't yet figured out why I should do all that bother delivering these nutrients to my veggies when I can simply put them on my garden beds or in my compost box. It intrigues me that many people believe in that kind of thing, but I'm kind of skeptical (I'm lazy and cheap) so I've tried to find some kind of trials that show me going through these extra steps is worth my time. So far, I haven't found anything but I'm willing to be convinced if somebody can show me some kind of evidence that it works. Cheers and thanks for posting.

@NaturesAlwaysRight 5 жыл бұрын

If you just lay vegetation on top of the soil, yes some of it is broken down. But a lot of it is off gassed into the atmosphere. Composting the material or turning it into a tea is a way of locking in all of the nutrients and getting them into a more plant available form sooner. In the case of aerated teas you are proliferating beneficial bacteria and fungi and then spreading them into the soil and on your plants the benefits are numerous. My video coming out tomorrow about aerated teas should hopefully clear up a lot of your questions. I talk a lot about soil biology in it.

@priayief 5 жыл бұрын

Thanks for the response. I should clarify that while I do put a bunch of rough-cut vegetation on the top of my gardens, I also add a layer of compost (about 2 inches) on the top layer in the fall. While I'm interested in soil biology I also like the scientific method that objectively measures whether one particular approach is better than another. I am terrible at objectively judging whether one approach is better than another and, since I'm cheap and lazy, I like to know (as certain as I can be) that my efforts in doing one thing over another are of any value. Hopefully, your next video will clarify my understanding. Many thanks for posting. Cheers.

However, to dilute your liquids to 1:10, you need to use one part of the liquid and nine parts of the water, instead of ten parts as you mentioned twice in the video. It's a common misconception, so don't worry. I just wanted to point it out for the future videos. Keep up the good work. Cheers!

Thanks man. Haha I actually looked this up to double check before making the video. I wasn't sure if it was 1:9 giving 10 total parts or 1:10. I searched and here's one thing I found downloads.bbc.co.uk/skillswise/job-skills/jo04clea/factsheet/jo04clea-l1-f-using-ratios.pdf. So I'm reading conflicting information. I do want to get this right for the next video! So if you say a 1:10 ratio then that equates to 1 part tea and 9 parts water? Is that right? Either way it's all good because making this tea, 1 part tea and 10 parts water is more conservative.

In the laboratories, we use dilution factor to prevent this misunderstanding. To find the dilution factor; you divide the final volume by the initial volume and the dilution factor is often used as the denominator of a fraction. In your case, one to ten dilution should contain 1 unit volume of your Comfrey tea + 9 unit volume of water makes the dilution factor 10 and now you can say that you diluted your liquid to 1:10. It is quite interesting that BBC published something like this. There are some scientific sources that I can share with you; abacus.bates.edu/~ganderso/biology/resources/dilutions.html ocw.ehu.eus/pluginfile.php/4715/mod_resource/content/1/Temas/1_DILUTIONS_AND_CONCENTRATIONS.pdf www.fao.org/docrep/005/ac802e/ac802e0r.htm cbs.umn.edu/sites/cbs.umn.edu/files/public/downloads/dilutiontheory.pdf www2.hawaii.edu/~johnb/micro/m140/syllabus/week/handouts/m140.7.1.htm Since the nutrient composition is not certain in the tea, you are right. It is a safer option to dilute this liquid as 1 part of the tea, and 10 parts of water and then use it. It's just not that correct to say it as one to ten ratio. Nevertheless, the main subject here is how to make a comfrey tea and you did it well. Thank you for sharing the knowledge.

I'd love to do a video about that sometime. It always greens the plants up the next day. Hard to do a legit side by side when I'm growing everything for sale, but I'll try to come up with some good experiments at some point.

I am wondering if adding brown sugar by weight would extend the shelf life of the tea. I know we do that when making Lactic Acid Bacteria serum and Fermented Plant Juice so maybe it would work with this too. The sugar stops the fermentation process and puts the live bacteria to sleep until it is diluted with water and used in the garden. Also, I do not recall your recommending using only dechlorinated water as this is a solution of live bacteria.

I don't make it very often since I'm using compost, aerated teas, and korean natural farming. But once a month for maintenance or do a soil drench before planting or to water in after transplanting.

Saw a guy who added leaf mold to his batch, would that give it an extra microbial kick?

@NaturesAlwaysRight 2 жыл бұрын

Because it sits so long in the end it will be more of a fertilizer even though you did add those microbes. Just do JMS harvest around 36 hours when the large rings of bubbles form that's when max microbial diversity is.
