Organic, pro-biotic and organic growing without bottled nutrients


Recommended Posts

Just be mindful of the impact something like that could have on an ethical company such as NTS... Please. Their take will be that they have acted completely within the law. All I'm trying to demonstrate is that we should support ethical companies that act with integrity, not businesses who succeed in having government bodies outlaw the use of botanical sources for sustainable and regenerative cultivation for the purpose of creating a monopoly on an isolated compound in neem

that's cool mate , even though i might have sounded like i was going to rant & rave on an email i wouldn't have done that 

 

if i remember rightly NTS have had there moments in the past , claiming organic on something that wasn't completely organic 

or something along those lines , not trying to cast dispersion's but it's a tough gig finding & keeping supply of raw organic ingredients 

for manufacturing , the temptation to take the cheaper option , on a commercial scale is huge for the buyer & supplier 

Karanja is super awesome especially when used with Neem, both meals and oil... According to a fair bit of research. We are in the process of securing a good supplier

ok cool i'm sure you'll let us know when you have the oil available

I hear U... That was a massive smear attempt apparently perpetrated by competitors... Graham Saite is highly renowned for his work in regenerative agriculture worldwide. Don't know if the same can be said for OCP....

 

Yeah close to getting karanja meal, there's actually Australian producers for biofuel, however supply is low at this stage.

Apparently bacterial... But really what we should be aiming for is maximum biological diversity. A bit of everything in ratios close to what the soil food web research points to: about 20% fungi, 20% protozoa, 5 to 10% nematodes and thousands of bacteria in each field of view. I personally think the best way to achieve this is by providing a soil that is mineral balanced and made with highest quality humus. The right structure and chemistry will promote biological portion... And the plant will feed what it needs so in turn influencing these ratios. I wouldn't go trying to control it other than providing the best soil and adding compost, worm castings with a blend of minerals occasionally. Fungi is extremely important to a functional soil food web and a fertile soil

I'm looking at KNF principles and collecting and Making IMO1 and IMO2 .Depending on where I collect ,i.e. forests are more fungal .I imagine that a diverse collection will sort it's self out if everything else in the web is balanced?

ah yes, F:B ratios very important in KNF apparently... I'm not really across KNF so I'm sure one of the other members here could fill U in on that.

I used a coots mix base

1/3 peat

1/3 scoria/rice hulls

1/3 compost/worm casting (homemade)

Watering with blumats

First time with no till and it's amazing.

And also I ordered some neem and kelp

From you. Fast postage great quality easy as bro! thanks!
