yeah busy as all hell in the oranges, I am weeding LOL. The system lacks stability but I am building fungal mass. We started at near zero, i did find one Ecto and a few yeast myco bacterium, but I had a massive amount of bacteria. Ergo the weeds are out of control. We have been feeding only inputs that favor fungus and so we are slowing the race of bacteria. All base sugar inputs are few to help restrict blooms and I am running heavy protozoa teas on a monthly basis.
I have made a pile of Bokashi which i added minerals too from kelp etc and pro biotic cow manure to try to speed up the transition away from synthetics. I am having to do lots of foliar feeds to help keep the plants happy

or get one them big ass feed throufe for live stock,,punch some holes in bottom and rock a damn a tree in it,,damn stalks are about 6in around in them huge garden bags in cali ive seen,,crazy too ,the water going in is 8.0 and the soil ph is like 6.0 and they balance some how,,couldnt believe it till i seen ole jorge cervanitise do a soil and water test

my water here is pH 8.3 I never adjust it no matter the media. I use a diverse range of inputs in BOX liquids and these balance the pH during mineralization. I use a wide range of resonant microbes that can function at all ranges between them as a group. I dont just have a single strain of PSB, I have multiples that can therefore, work in acid or alk states to mobilise P for example. I use enzymes and siderophores and LAB.
I use the concepts of material pH to get a balance overall. BSM has a different pH to Nettles, and nettle seeds a different pH to nettle leaves and so on. I have worked hard to avoid having to use Citric acids for example since these are already made by plants. I dont add aminos that plants can make alone, but i do add ones they and microbes cant make but use in a process, so x in KAMINO, y in NBio90 (new product designed for perennial and trees) z in iNitiate.
I use many organic acids but not Citric, and we ferment the products at room temperature for up to 3 years. The new NBio90 is a 5 yr fermentation which is extremely rich in organic acids and is still be tested locally before we launch or not.
I suspect those cali dudes are doing something similar.

so if I cold press extract the oils from the rind, I should be able to put this in to a spray bottle right and bingo

yes ,especially with the mass you can have from just fallen oranges,,who's to say you couldnt even use it as a natural spray bettween you walk ways in the garden for insects,,check it out ,how many hand cleaners ,laundry soaps and all that are made these days,,and the smell alone would keep your bats and even draw in more bee's

not impacting the human food supply chain is crucial imo and fallers are largely left unattended
