I’d like to add that excessive heat will greatly shorten shelf life, so keep your inputs out of hot garden sheds and greenhouses.

Thank you! I don’t have any LAB in there…well, maybe there is naturally, but I just used fish and sugar – did my recipe miss something?

Thank you! I’ve seen Chris Trump’s skoosh and dash video, however, I don’t currently have OHN (only about 8 days in) or IMO4 – that’s next spring. I was able to culture an IMO1 indoors, it was pretty pink, but much better than the previous 4 tries – I didn’t realize we have a rainy fall, I mean I sort of knew it, but it made collecting outside a challenge. I checked my FAA today and the white bits haven’t grown, so that’s good. I might put in a skoosh of IMO2 – just to see…

we add a TBSP of WCA to our 24hr fermented chicken food mix when egg production drops or there are abnormalities to eggshell. definitely helps keep chickens healthy.

I would have to say yes being that LAB lives on everything and everywhere and that the starch collection will still attract the LAB from the air and that by propagating in the milk u should still get a LAB only full spectrum solution afterwards One of the ideas behind KNF is that u use what is natural to u theres not many very specific things that r done only X way i think many things r more bullet points that u wanna hit like in LAB its attract with a simple starch propagate in any animal milk i dont feel the source of starch  or milk really matters as much as the method to achieve the end results Same as would be in the next step of LAB to preserve it well how much sugar u add is irrelevant because its the super saturation point u r trying to achieve and the amount of sugar u will use to get there is undetermined what matters there is u use brown sugar to lock up all the water to place the LAB in hibernation for storage Things to think of is what may work it Korea may not work in Arizona but the method still does its how to adapt to your Naturel environment and make it work for u

“Slight yellowing” you say? … Sounds like you need to add calcium phosphate (knfStructure) to your spray cocktail. Similar to how the present day patriarchal Christianity forgets the fourth element (Mother Mary) so too some forget calcium phosphate in the Maintenance Formula. Dilute 1:1000 and combine with knfFood (fpj), knfCleanser (raw vinegar) and knfMedicine (ohn). Of course ohn completes this magic solution but if you don’t have any yet, don’t worry. It’s the fpj without the balance of the vinegar that can cause occasional mold growth if there is already pathogens present.

I have never tried with oats but I am sure it’ll work, especially since rolled oats have so much starch dust, similar to white rice. brown rice doesn’t have nearly enough starch to wash off, and barley is probably similar. But enough theorizing. Let me tell you what I HAVE seen work (besides white rice.) Cassava starch wash, cooked taro, potatoes, and perhaps most surprising of all, mushed up white bread and flour tortillas too. Hey, its got starch, and that is the most important thing next to using real milk.  Let us know how it turns out with the barley and oats!

There is an excellent recipe book to be found at naturalfarminghawaii.net For extensive pest control solutions i recommend this one https://www.amazon.com/JADAM-Organic-Farming-all-Natural-Ultra-Low-Cost/dp/8989220203/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=jadam&qid=1609919118&sr=8-1

i’ve used batches that have developed a little pink or grey mold on top by removing it before straining. but if the whey doesn’t taste right, bad, or cheesy it shouldn’t be considered a good batch.

well. did you know that the original Korean word for what we call “FPJ” is “Green Juice From Heaven”? not kidding. some o.g. knf trivia… My second thought, after “divine microbial medicine” was sometimes sugar makes me feel high…and that green juice can sometimes turn alcoholic if it over ferments in the first stage. but this may not be the case at all. truly, i would have to agree with you (to a degree). I feel great when I drink fpj too (especially diluted in water with a slash of vinegar and LAB.) i once gave a girlfriend of mine some fresh LAB whey and she said after the first sip she felt a rushing feeling of energy and happiness. i think she reeeeaaally needed the microbes and her body knew right away it was a good thing.
