It will make its own liquid. Don't add any. I would use a big plate or planter tray and bricks to press it down to get any air out of the mix. Let it sit a few days and stir. You should see CO2 bubbles and some/more liquid. 85 is fine. My ferments are usually 80-84Hey @WildBill @Fermented_Fruitz and maybe @Jerseyphresh1
so I got 900 grams of fresh leaf matter and added 900 grams of brown sugae, I mixed it all up realllly good. I put it in a 5 gallon bucket and covered it with a plastic bag
so do I add any water is my main question. My second question, do I need to shake or stir the bucket at anypoint? Also how long does this take and is it better if it’s in warmer temps like 85°F
Two to 3 weeks. It's ready when the liquid is around 3.5pH

Well that would be because that small graphic for the badges was uploaded tiny like 200x300 pixels maximum and they are .png format. I did it because it worked in the old software? I read it somewhere? I do not recall now but that is why you cannot make them bigger.
