This dude is super knowledgeable and concise. I'd love to learn more from him in future videos.
Most definately gonna be seeing more of Larry.
Another issue with AACT is the biology reproduced is very young and so they are sticky and stick to the top of the soil. That’s why it’s so amazing as a foliage protection. Compost extract is so much easier. Great video! Dr Eileen is the soil Queen
Larry! Larry! Larry!
Thanks Larry! I’m watching ! -from LOOOziana
Could you talk about how you water in the extract, like dilution rates or type of water pump used or just the over all actions of watering in?
We do not dilute it down. If you are small scale, watering in with some sort of watering can will work really well. If you are larger scale, using a tank setup with a diaphragm pump would be the preferred method. You don't want to ever use an impeller pump as it will kill the microbes.
Great video, good to know I can recycle the wet compost material back in to the pile, can this then make a compost pile last pretty much forever??
You can do it about 5 to 10 times safely with high quality compost. If you had a microscope you could possibly do it forever.
Hey it's me the bad attitude guy. We bought 18 bags of your soil. My grow is looking pretty darn good. I apologize I was trying to be funny. Just wanted to let you know. And Thanks !
Glad things are going well with your plants. If you have any questions along the way, let us know.
I’m wondering if this will work on pests on plants would I spray it? Or it’s enough to water the base of the plant with this?
You can spray this on plants. Would be good for fungal disease, etc.. not as much for pest prevention IMHO.
How often should the biocomplete compost extract be used in a cannabis garden?
We use once in veg and once in flower. You can do more if you are a home grower.
Is it good to feed microbe food(nutrients/organic matter) at the same time or at another watering? I am asking this because Dr Harley Smith suggested giving microbe food w/microbes for efficiency.
We mix them together when using other microbes.
Thanks for your help!!! I appreciate it.
What is a biocomplete compost?? What are the basics that should be in there??
The soil Food Web website will have more info on it. It has everything from bacteria up to multiple different types of nematodes.
@@RedbudSoilCompany Thanks!
This is cool! I do the same thing with fresh cannabis roots. When your plant is finished….rip the roots out and dip them in clean water for a few mins. Then water your plants with that?! If your in a 5 gallon or 15 gallon. But yeah. Repurpose your Rootballs!!
I absolutely love this idea. ❤️
