Inoculation of Bio Char

Post by Guest »

I have been watching this video here for a general guide as I have watched to how to make biochar video already and found it very informative and comprehensive, packed out with information.

https://youtu.be/DOEyIPVn2r0

I am looking forward to making a compost tea again, it has been a good while has that. This will be done with 2 types of compost, some alfalfa and worm castings. Maybe some rock dust too.

All welcome to input here and add ideas, I am learning as I go on this one with some added tips from a few whispers :idea: idea storming.

I need to wet my GHO biochar 1st apparently.

I may split it and come up with 2 way's of doing this though. I think I may come up with a quicker way in case people need a quick turn around at the end of cycle and harvest for instance.

So here we go

:sup:

:dance:

You had it as https://youtu.be/ whereas it has to be https://www.youtube.com/ for it to be embedded on here
I hope that helps.

I don't know much about bio char, but urine was often used as fertiliser as it's high in Nitrogen.

Yeah it's good for fungal dominated plants like shrubs and bushes if I remember correctly. My dad always told me which plants I could piss on when caught short, so I didn't kill his pansies off :lol:

Should just grow in coco. Bacteria love all that extra oxygen and the roots don't suffocate every time you water them.

Yes that is a very good point Dave.

When dynomyco https://dynomyco.co.uk/ came onto the scene I rewmmber @Keeno having great results with added fungi so I am sure bacteria are useful for your style of growing KD.

In fact I think there has been threads here abpout mixed organic and coco growing here, using bottled nutes along with coco and other added organic amendments.

Thank you for bringing it up.
