![]() For more information search "flax seed" in the facebook PFA group. There's a wealth of content on this but to get started check out this photo tutorial.Īnd for those of familiar with with wanting to try something new try adding 1/2 cup of flax seeds when you're blending / grinding you're sprouted seeds. Great recipe on how to use, from Some Old Coot and can be found here.ĭo keep in mind that tricanotol is so strong you've got to use 1/3 the amount of any other seed. The most commonly used are barley (which I use mostly for amino acid content), corn (which I use for cytokinin content), and alfalfa (which I use mostly for triacontanol content). SST - Sprouted Seed Tea - provide hormones, amino acids, enzymes, and tons of other wonderful compounds. For more info click hereĮWC - Earthworm castings / compost - Earthworm castings / compost - For a wonderful write up on the difference in vermicompost vs castings read this. IMO - Indigenous Microorganism - Often used interchangeably with BIM.īIM - Beneficial Indigenous Microorganisms - A culturing method for transplanting microbes from healthy similar ecosystem to a new ecosystem. Many of these strains of bacteria are something we are chiefly concerned with, and thus probiotics have gone from something we buy in the store to something we culture ourself and can supplement directly. Instead, they establish small colonies for brief periods of time before dying off or being flushed from the intestinal system via normal digestive processes, or by peristaltic bowel action.” Even though these types of beneficial bacteria are only in the digestive system on a temporary basis, “they contribute to the overall function and condition of the digestive system.” From “Transient micro organisms are different from resident micro organisms in that they do not take up permanent residence in the gastrointestinal tract. “Until the 19th century, when food processing replaced hand-to-mouth ingestion of raw fruit and vegetables, formed a regular part of our diet.” Soil based organisms are considered “friendly” non-resident or transient microorganisms. SBOs are referred to a probiotics because they are beneficial bacteria that live in the soil. Soil probiotics are commonly known as soil-based organisms (SBOs). This not only impacted us, but our plants, both direct and indirectly, as we are increasingly finding (the research is ever growing thankfully). ![]() These enzymes, amino acids, and bacteria colony originally were provided to us from the soil itself, but due to more modernized agricultural practices they are now sorely lacking, and as such we've got to supplement our intake. When we buy probiotic food we're giving the body cultures to inoculate a strain of bacteria we want in the body, many time with sources of fuel for them. ![]() The term probiotic is defined as "denoting a substance that stimulates the growth of microorganisms, especially those with beneficial properties (such as those of the intestinal flora)". Though the term probiotic gardening may seem to be a slight misnomer at first, it actually makes more sense than you might believe. This is one of the most common questions I'm asked, so before I dig into the facets I'd like to address this real quick. Here is an article that provides further explanation and a bunch of references. That step is where you create the lactic acid bacteria aka LAB in the EM-1, those bacteria come from milk. No, The second step it does not isolate into LAB only. The Lactobacilicus diluted and applied to the soil, would only introduce more microbes to the environment, consuming the organic matter already present in the soil?Ĭlick to expand.Culture from rice and milk or the forest.ĭoing both and or adding aact/top dressing will provide more microbial diversity. I even know the rates at which to apply the final substrate, or liquid.what I'm not getting a full picture of, is the comparison of benefits between only using Lactobacilicus serum in watering once a week, versus going full fledged into bokashi and using its resulting fermented liquid in my feed.Īm I right in assuming that the bokashi liquid would be filled with billions of microbes AND usable nutrients( having been pre-digested by the innoculant)? I also know how to do a completely diy bokashi compost. I know how to culture a Lactobacilicus serum. ![]() I've done a bunch of reading on the subject( still reading and learning) and I'm trying to figure out the best combination of methods between the culture and application of a Lactobacilicus serum, and a bokashi composting regimine.off the bat, I know that sounds redundant. I'm wondering if anyone on the farm does a DIY growkashi.
