Thank you! We separated the scoby and have been applying the solution through our fertigation system.

I have the same question.  Conventional info I found on line was, now that I’ve noticed the leaf curl, it’s too late to treat it, just wait till winter.  But now that I know about KNF, I am thinking it should help create the balance to heal the tree.

Next question is:  I want to make IMO and wondering whether I should aim for bacterially (grass) or fungally (forest) dominant?

Hi did you ever try vegan lab?

We are considering trying with soya milk.

Thanks

Any vinegar will do the job, use what is availabe to you, it will still work.

KNF is not about using only this and nothing else, it’s about using what you have available. Although if you use the exact ingredients, your results will likely be according to expectations.

Just don’t forget, if you want quality in your inputs, you should use quality ingredients, and BRV qualifies as that.

In Korea or Asia, BRV is easy to find and, I assume, also affordable, but more importantly it has its own unique set of properties which make it the prime choice in KNF. In other parts of the world one should use what is available there and ideally without disregarding quality, but lower end ingredients although not being optimal will also work.

i just started a batch from some plum FFJ only been a couple weeks but so far so good

Urine is a high nitrogen content liquid fertilizer that could be used, i would also think that FPJ made from legumes would be high in nitrogen also or other high nitrogen plants like corn or comfrey but i don’t think any of them will be as rich as FAA or urine. You could also plant legumes in with your crops such as hairy vetch, Legumes r known to pull nitrogen out of the air and store it in small sacks on the roots that the soil bacteria have access to and release to the plants.

i found some info on making tinctures with out alcohol it uses glycerin instead glycerin can be added to water to help retain moister in soil here is the link i found     https://traditionalcookingschool.com/health-and-nutrition/alcohol-free-herbal-tinctures-super-easy-askwardee-055/

there is also the Jadam method

i would think so propane is a clean burning gas and there would be no more toxins going into the bones then is going into the food cooked on the grill

yes id think more sugar to lock up the water in the FAA would stop the fermentation

i could see how the inputs them self r high in acid after the fermentation but when u add them at a 1:1000 or 1:500 mix with water i dont think its gonna lower the PH that bad to bring it down from a base 7 to 4 is a lot of acid i feed my blueberrys a highly acidic water about a 4 but i use  2-3 cups (16-24oz) of unused coffee to 1 gal of water i would think u should test your base water PH and see where u r starting u may need to add something to your water to raise the PH back up to 7
