Yeah the manure I get is thriving with red wigglers so there is no need to add any worm castings. It's amazing.
Nice!
yeah but manure is hot, so the night temps are countered by the heat in the manures, this is why you get better growth i suspect. Lovely by the way, just a great picture
have a look at Bokashi fermenting the cow manure too if you havent already
I actually use a lacto ferment mix in my tea that I brew.
yes i have a serum option in liquid, but i find by pre fementing the manures, i dont need the teas and can focus solely on a BIOL for pest reduction as a foilar. Only problems I have found it that i need to add more boron, potassium and calcium where I use higher amounts of manures in the summer here where the soil temps exceed the norm. i just add the B and Ca ahead of time but the K I add every 8-14 days depending on the rates of evaporation. I put this down to the higher operating temps of KSB's who fizz through the soil K and so deplete it faster in higher temps. The Ca is typically a struggle where we drop moisture but i find adding gypsum works so long as the drought isnt too extended, but where i get this headache i foliar a nano CaO I make every 8 days and this seems to help
Yeah I really want to re design the cages next year. I really want to build a frame around them and use hemp rope or something of that sort. But yeah totally easier that way.
Thanks! I’m shooting for a 5”+ tree trunk next season. Lots of veg time. Really just want to see how far I can push a plant.
