0:00Intro and Welcome
1:38Welcome and iChing- The Joyous Lake- 58
6:25KNF is clean earth farming
7:00OHN- molding in fermentaion; ginger ferments fast
8:38pile size for making fermented compost- bigger is better
9:50KNF Reproduction- pouring off and off-gassing; make sure no rotten egg smell
11:40making KNF Food- oranges ok? 3 categories- plant tips, unripe fruit and flowers and ripe fruits
13:10add JMS and JLF to compost tea? don’t brew it, it’s gross, add it in at the end- it’s anaerobic, don’t aerate it
14:25check out George’s garden- Drake please type in the link to follow George ; growing food, building tools and community, amazing quesadillas; goat manure, cardboard, mulching with straw; making biochar
19:45www.facebook.com/esisvaigs
20:30George’s questions- white stuff while making KNF Fuel (FAA)- every batch looks different
22:50when solutions are done, super saturated, store with air-tight lid
23:30pastures to recover- how to rejuvenate with KNF; drill in fish

28:26ways to support soil food web- are JADAM and KNF compatible with microbes application
29:08the more microbes you put out the better, feed the dust on the top and soak the microbes in
30:00guest George on screen; KNF conversation; integrate the animals with the microbes; put IMO4 into the feed
41:15goat cheese
46:00KNF is a solution for rising fertilizer prices- fertility can come from microorganisms and fermentation; we can grow our own fertilizer
48:25use a bucket heater to be able to make microbes when it’s cold
49:32get the knowledge to people
50:50George’s community; growing microgreens
53:44how to demonstrate the miracle of IMO with rotting fish- there’s no smell

0:00Intro and Welcome
1:19Welcome and iChing- The Power of the Great
4:36viewers from all over the world tunng in
5:25what application does KNF have in vermicomposting/worm bins? KNF Protectors (LAB) really helps; don’t use KNF Medicine (OHN) leftovers; chop evrything very fine and add solutions
9:30how to apply IMO4 to area with existing trees; How to Soil Formula on Drake’s YouTube channel
14:10in the video spread the IMOs around the drip line of the tree as well as KNF Fuel soaked biochar; visual videos compliment the Recipes book; spray Soil Prep Solution on top; and periodically spray foods
18:25rain is oxygenated water- microbes oppose erosion as they build humic structures that holds the soil and minerals in place
20:49dusting 5 llbs per 100 sq ft as Eyewiness says and apply the Soil Solution which is found in the Recipe Book at www.knfsupport.com and the KNF app which calculates the amounts
22:06video about KNF breaking down rocks- “Melting Puna Rock with Indigenous Micro Organisms”- lava rocks put into the IMO4 pile as it was being turned
23:25rock is solidified minerals
24:14what does KNF suggest for pest and disease control in tomatoes? Healthy soil produces healthy plants that produce healthy food and then it’s easy to grow healthy humans
25:14understand what pests you have- can make the recipe for soap found in the Recipe Book; there are also videos on the internet
27:07well known method to kill pests by Young San Cho, detailed in his book
27:24bug traps using KNF Food
27:45too much sugar with KNF Fuel? It’s diluted 1/1000 or 1/3000 so it’s almost hoemopathic because it’s so diluted- refer to the Prescriptions page in the Recipe Book
29:46should you be worried about too much sugar while making KNF Fuel? It’s a matter of cost. If sugar is falling to the bottom of the bucket, you could be overdoing it and wasting sugar
30:51goats? Feed them IMO4 in their feed and they will poop pefect IMO pellets
32:03in JADAM there’s JWA and different JLAs you can use- Disgustingly Cheap Food in the Recipe Book; adding different materials gives you different nutrient profiles
32:48recipes are out there as open source
33:18sprouting quinoa and hemp seeds; Seed Soak Solution
34:54IMOs take away fishy smell
35:44collecting IMO during rainy season- use a large tarp; make disgustingly cheap microbes during the rainy season
40:02can liquid IMO be applied as a foliar spray; better to add IMOs to the soil and spray the formulas; build the soil foundation
43:02adapting plants to your climate with KNF soil foundation and formulas
44:34FAA; KAA (kuhol amino acid)- can be made from slugs
45:30how long to soak seeds- seeds that sprout quickly need less soaking time
46:33Seed Soak Theory- seeds should inherit the microbiology of their parents but they may not; inside and out
50:42recommend taking Chris class? the more teachers you can learn from, the bettter; however there is some info that’s not good out there- determine what works for you
54:20PureKNF Foundation

57:06the wealth of a nation is the soil- new world order of microbes, feeding people
58:22IMOs indoors; Protectors (LAB)
59:50active mentors- Drake is a primary mentor every Sunday
