NuttyProfessor And His Herd Of Indigenous Microorganisms

[NuttyProfessor]

When they suffer, we win it seems.

people split stems, electric run through them , drought , but i remember using a 600watt MH bulb and got a ton of frost but the cost to run was too much , the last two weeks would be plenty to do mh bulb i think

 

[Bill284]

good things come to those who wait my friend , things happen for reasons , you will find a dream place trust me @Bill284

I'm not worried. But thanks so much for the encouragement.
I have total faith in this process and know better things are ahead.
As long as I have the space I can make it work.
Bill

emptied the three barrels into one large 90 litre , could you think how much this would cost to buy

more room now

looks as good as any

love this little fat petes cookies

love this creeper more

That'd do it too.

Thanks.
Going for my first jab today. I have things pretty tight right now but a mountain of work ahead of me.
I miss my ladies. I must have given away 40 girls all over 3 feet tall.
The place we had lined up we bid $50 thousand over ask.
Someone came in behind us and bid $90 thousand over ask.
I was gutted.
So hunting again. I'm not worried though. I'll find a warehouse somewhere.
Stay safe mucker.
Bill

Well that's great news Bill! I feel so much less stress knowing I'm inoculated! But the $$ over bids are crazy! Better luck next one.

Hey Nutty,

I’m guessing about 3 grand or 32 bucks per liter would be the going rate! Question - once you crank up a new batch how long do you cook it for & at what ratio do you use when you dilute it down to feed your girls

Hey Nutty,

you just throw in your ingredients and some rain water , couple hand full of leaf mold, close the lid and leave three months , i have some with comfrey , seaweed, crab ,l, eaves the diluting down is a guessing game , that is why i think i under fed my white widow , so i keep going up lol

 

[NuttyProfessor]

Fail or do ? i am gonna send this tap root to the bottom , this is the pimped pot with the air pot bottom , if any thing it keeps the journal interesting,

plan

keep bottom moist , roots find moist . i will only be adding water to the bottom in small lots it will take time to work it out , i only added this water to show you how it is going to work , the top will also be watered from the outside edge to get top roots spread , If i can keep the soil perfect and the roots constantly growing this big cheese should be massive cheese ,
Nothing like sticking your neck on the block but i have done so far what i have said id do , i like a challenge and if its a disaster who cares i do not , ill just re think things and try again

I’m going to start a brew myself then. That’s cool just start off slow on dosing and see how they respond, I might be able to not screw that one up.... he, he he!

I left the back door open one night with the ceiling fan going and later found 3 bats circling in the great room A frame ceiling. Used a wide plastic leaf rake and swatted each one down then added one to each of my soil bins.

I like using bugs too, I put 3 gallons of alfalfa pellets into a 5 gallon bucket and poured 2 gallons of water on it. After a month of sitting out by the shed the bucket was full of larvae I’m guessing it was fly larvae. But anyway I dumped the larvae on a baking sheet and popped it into the oven to kill off the nasties and added the concoction to my soil bins. I’m thinking about adding cicadas too since the 17 year variety are popping out in the US now.

Wonder if putting 2 bricks or some kind of spacer in the bottom of the plastic barrel for the bag to sit on will help the air stone oxygenation to be more effective?

Yes start slow , i use some dry amendments in my soil , then i make a microbe solution , add this to the soil over a couple of weeks , then i fill my pots , this seems to give the plants the best start and the amendments are starting to break down ,

i am using a ten gallon pot this one , the last pots were 7 gallon and just ran out of steam , i never watered much to run off to keep the nutrients there

that is funny about the bats BTW lol

I know that feeling when the soil goes flat, only time that happened I cut the 5 gallon bucket in half with a Rockwell vibrating cutter and plunked the rootball down in a 16 gallon tub. That’s when I learned for soil.... go big or go home!

 

[bluenoserjoe]

Morning Professor. Your home brewed feed is, while looking disgusting lol, invaluable to any dirt farmer. If you want to cut the costs then you have to put in the effort. The more effort the higher the reward. Is the Big Cheese pot sitting on a rack to keep it clear of the bottom of the bucket? The Creeper really is a beauty. And I hope your floors are sheet goods and not klik lock. Enough said for a wake n bake.

Highya Nutty Professor,

May I call you NP? Good then. I've read and used some things from Dr Cho. Worked well. However, your ladies are stunning! I applaude your initiative! So, now I'll read more about Jadam and his work. I have a question about your 3 containers now reduced to one. It seems to be an ongoing process. Keep putting things in and take the juice out to water them? Is that correct? I've been using molasses for microbes to feel on, but not getting the results I expected. Must have been the ph problem. I'll try the potato thing. Oh, btw, I grow in the ground in the summer.
Great journal! I'll be back in the fall after you finish this journal. I'm so set on indigenous materials. We have a lot of plants here for making fpj's. Great work. Keep it going!! Happy Smokin'

 

[Azimuth]

You do keep adding material and topping it off with water. He says you never have to remove the old solids, or even clean the thing out, ever! And the liquid is supposed to get better with age.

Probably one of the reasons it works so well is the microbes, since you're adding more to your garden with each watering with the sludge. The results speak for themselves.

 

[copperrein]

I started bottom watering some of my non-cannabis container trees. It does make my life easier instead of waiting for sandy shit soil to properly hydrate. Not sure if it's helping but they're prolly doing better than if I were trying to top water in our heat right now.

Have you ever run hydro? I bet you could do it and teach all of us something.

Hey @NuttyProfessor hope you are well my friend.

I’m with Copper, I’d like to see - NuttyProfessor dives deep!

Hey can you take a look at this one if you have a minute? The op wants to make a custom coco mix and I mentioned you were crafting Jekyll & Hyde level concoctions that haven’t been invented yet...

It’s alive - oh shit that’s prolly frankenstein or frankenbud Faq page - coco mix

 

[Azimuth]

Do you mean that even with your liquid concoctions that it was not enough to finish the grow, and that you feel you'll have to add additional amendments to finish properly? I think you stated at the start that you didn't put anything in the soil originally, correct?

This could be a long or a short journal , stepping into deeper water into the unknown , no maybe stepping back into normality,
In nature when plants grow then die off they shed their leaves then fruit or flowers ,this then breaks down over time feeding the plant it came from again ,
This journal is a none bottle feed , its a natural npk how nature has done it from the big bang ,
Over the last couple of months i have been fermenting my MJ plants leaves , i added rain water, leaf mold some sea and Himalayan salts , I keep this fermenting in my grow room , reason is for natural plant occurring co2 , i stir twice to three times a day , depends how often i visited the room, this is a none air stone ferment ,stirring only,this saves time waiting on the leaves to break down into the soil , a bit of a hack to break down to plant available

The first barrel in the pictures is for my veg stage high (n) from leaves stems and roots , my flower stage is in another barrel using some sugar beets, mold and salts , the reason for this is because i am hardly going to put my buds back into the soil so i need something else with stored energy for (p)(k)


the plant i have chosen is critical orange punch autoflower , all autos i grow , the medium has zero nutes but a handful of compost to get it started ,
I will never know the strength of these, so as i say this could go titties up pretty fast , if things go to plan i have two more seedling to follow , one in my super duper wuper soil , and one in the super duper wuper pooper duper soil , one in an air pot and one in a fabric , another test im doing, is a fast drain soil

i will also use some of my other natural nutrients from my nute catcher, its the best thing from sliced bread

that goo.... the flashbacks...
