Hecno's on going organics

@hecno ,thought you'd get kick from this.....Birch bark is waterproof. When a tree dies the wood rapidly decomposes into mycillium starter.....

Not as rich as 'turkey dirt', but gets the job done.
The far north has it's own 'dayglo' strains....

@trailanimal not all season , mostly the later part , the reason being it is not so hot and the forest floor has had a lot of water on it and is decaying at a greater rate , I try to make the bulk of my soils at this time of year due to the activity that is going on around me . The later on I am feeding the soil as you would a plant . We get very few tourists at this time of year , but it is the best time to be here . Glowing with life .:biggrin: @Waira I will wait till Miss K is auto . the smells of the other 2 I will get back to you , But it is bloody good so far . :lol: and yep still got the curly grub frass happening .
Insect Frass
Insect frass can be used in different ways depending on what you are using the insect frass for. You’ll need to mix it into soil or compost, rather than just directly adding it to your garden.

For larger plots, you can add one pound of insect frass for every 20 feet of space. Dig up half the soil and then water that soil. Then you can mix in the insect frass and add the soil back into the garden. For smaller potted plants, you can add one cup of insect frass for each cubic foot of potting soil. Water the soil and then mix in the insect frass.

For both of these methods, you can add to the top of the soil every few weeks. This will keep giving added benefits to your garden.

If your plants are already growing, you can let the insect frass steep in the water for several hours. After it has steeped, you can then water your plants with that mix. This will allow the insect frass water to penetrate the roots of your plants. If you have any extra of this mix, do not feel pressured to use all of it. It can keep in the fridge for up to a week.

I love playing with soil .

Have you tried fermenting the frass? I played with it this last grow. I bought the fermented frass and that's not economically feasible, but I just wanted to test it. I can't say it made a visible difference that I can point to THAT being the difference. I did make other improvement. I can say without a doubt, this last run was among the most frosty and the potency is sure as hell there!
One of the strains, I gave my Vet buddy today, was an oz of the Meph freebie multi-cross Black Beauty.......[Sour Stomper X CDLC] x FORUM STOMPER
He ground up a bud and stuffed his little one hitter. That's all it took for him. All the flower has been the hardest hitting weed I've grown or ever smokeed..
