I am not familiar with that, do they have a website? Like I ever have a spare outlet to plug something in. lol. I didnt look into the electromagnetic field theory too much.A buddy of mine is cousins with the guy who invented the grounding things. You plug them into the wall (not using electricity, just grounding the probe) and stick the probe into your soil.
I wonder if it is the same at all? With the para-magnetic rocks?
How do you know what type it is? I've read this somewh2 row and 6 row barley is best
:rolleyes: I love when people take credit for stuff they didn't think of on their own.The primary reason that I originally used barley seeds was that there are serious books available on the subject for brewers who live and die by maximizing the enzyme levels in their malts.

I love reading about the malted barley folks are using, I really think I was the first one to try it, to excellent results.

Glad to meet you as well, Lady, and I'm happy to see more women coming onto fora like this. I was hoping there was a way to tell when you're buying the barley grain itself. I seem to recall reading an article in Acres, USA about the various barley types, and I recall seeing a photo similar to that showing how these types come by their names, but I don't recall seeing anything discussing how the average consumer might find out what type they've purchased or are about to purchase. I simply buy it in bulk, non-pearled, at a local market, but it's not marked as to the type. I figure something is better than nothing.
It's how the grains are formed. The 6 row has more enzymes, proteins and carbs than 2 row. I can only get 2 row and it works well for me. I can't attest for shortened flower but I was really impressed during veg. I didn't think it was possible to see such growth rates. Health of the plants was impressive. All that info can be found if you look for it. I'm not sure if I can post the link.
Hello Seamaiden! Glad to finally meet you. Ive read some of your posts in the women's forum at IC. :) learned VPD from ya to. Thanks!
I know this, and I believe he recalls some of the history behind this particular trend. Granted, the discussions occurred in private messages on ICM, and there's a whole *other* history there as to why I no longer have access to those. I am simply stating what *I* know to be a fact.SeaMaiden, we know each other so please don't take this personal. Just giving you some poop.
LOL, just playing. However Coots is the man, and has started many organic trends. Including providing several soil yards with "ideal soil." He and Michael Astrea, author of the book The Ideal Soil, have developed some of the best soil I have ever used in my life. Really amazing stuff. He also works closely with Build-a-Soil, arguably the best cannabis related suppliers in the country. They sell many products that Coots has developed.

I'm not arguing that anything that he says beyond that one thing. But being given and taking full credit for an idea that is not solely his is not being entirely honest. In fact, it wasn't until a few years after all of our PMs that I learned that working with sprouted seeds is one of the methods and concepts of KNF (Korean Natural Farming), which, again as I understand it, has been around a fair while.
That's my only real argument on this particular subject, other than he and some... 'unsavory' associates are one of the main reasons why I left the other site. Since it got really personal, it's hard for me to not take it personally, ya dig? Hopefully he no longer associates with these people.
In the meantime, I hope you read the Terms of Use when you signed up. If not, you might want to go back over them again. This is not a site where everyone gets to practice free speech. It's a cannabis site, and one of the things we ask our members to do is treat each other with respect so as to keep things from degenerating.
It was my pointing out that flavor in another private forum that got me all kinds of shit on. I stand by my assertions, and frankly, I'm kind of glad I'm not the only one who sees it. I think the remark I made was along the lines of, "What's the inside joke?" Then, all shit broke loose.I have never enjoyed the ROLS thread due to all the backhanded advice and put downs.
The fantastic results of no till are also found indoors in containers. There may be more biodiversity outdoors but there's plenty in my no till pots and it shows in my final product. Allowing for maximum soil structure works indoors and provides superior results due to the superior water retention, microbial activity and oxygen in the rhizosphere. Mulching protects these conditions and plants benefit in containers with a minimum size. Beds work better, and outdoors is the best.Blaze-
The thing that sea so poetically pointed out (in stark contrast to alask) is that the benefits are seen in fields and not in containers. There is room for discussion, to see if it makes as much sense in containers than it may in fields. I have also seens lots of information that points to variability with no-til. In some areas improvements are great, but in a place with possibly less rainfall, no-til does no show improvement.
This is an interesting time, and I think a very exciting prospect, that the cannabis culture may have had a large part in a much more eco-friendly growing system.
So I am thinking the best way to reintroduce rock dusts is in small doses with watering, or mixed into a top dressing of castings/peat/whatever else.
Just don't "let it get crusty".
2 row barley is perfect. 6 row works, and almost any malted grain will due. Apparently 6 row barley is king.Hey everyone I've been reading lately about No-Till for the last few weeks and have a recipe but want to top dress and use for teas. Can some tell me if I want pale ale malt or pilsner or neither lol. If so is there any place besides BoS I could get it from like Amazon or a brewery near me? Thanks All
Happy Growing
