When I use this I am shaking the jar until it is one soupy mess, chunks and all, and that goes into my AACT bucket. Not only am I getting the nutrition that the extract and left over solids provides, but in the AACT I am also creating the microlife that feeds on that potassium. This is going to be an incredible super charge to the newly blooming plants, just when they need it.
warm up the world... one compost pile at a time!
I could certainly start collecting and just chuck it in a bin outside for now.. Right? 
I have a small comost pin in my kitchen with an air filter for smell that I fill up in about 3 weeks then dumb in my bin outside its only -6 Celsius where I am but mines fine out there
It will freeze, but better than going to garbage...
outside
My city gave everyone a big green one for lawn timings and such u are allowed to keep all ur compost or they take it end of week with recycling and garbageThere were no compost bin here when I moved in. Beed to make one
You made a good choice, although not sure I agree with using that much vermiculite. Pumice is 100% organic and has several advantages over perlite. First it is heavier and doesn't tend to float to the top of containers with watering, so it stays put in the container and it helps make heavier containers to be able to hold up taller plants. Pumice has millions of little microscopic holes and chambers in it, providing a wonderful refuge for the microlife. Lastly, Pumice is very mineral rich, having many elements in it that are needed by our plants and to help support the microlife. If I had my choice over perlite or pumice, I would pick pumice.
I went with that ratio to stick with the Revs recommendation. I've never used very much vermiculite but figured for the 1st go round I should stick with him hehe.
Also, thanks for that info about the pumice. Sounds like good stuff for sure. Sure is a bit more expensive than perlite but if this TLO stuff turns out well for me I would be recycling soil over and over again so not as much would be needed later.
Thanks! Day 13 of flower and I am already seeing the first frost!
You have to love that.

Emmie's Backyard Fermented Plant Extracts From Dandelions!Beautiful
What is dandelion extract?
Speaking of dandelions. I've been reading about companion plants and surprised to find that dandelions produce Ethylene gas which can kick start flowering in some plants among other things. I may try to experiment with some companions.
