Fungal Pathogen SOLVED with Biology!

What I did:
-Foliar (two applications in evening)
- LAB in the form of Jun (kombucha with honey not sugar)
- with a little EM-pro from Tera Ganix
- and some WCA (why not a some calcium)
-Inoculants used (mixed with water, added to soil)
-Rootwise
-Myogenesis
-Fungal food
-JMS (JADAM Microbial Solution) *fungi love carbs and starches
LAB (Lactic Acid Bacteria) info:
-Can be made from raw milk (and get cheese!)
-Its in Kombucha and Jun
-Also in compost so compost teas and extracts
-Its in KNF solutions like IMO and JADAM solutions like JMS
-Can purchase EM-1 or EM-Pro from Tera Ganix
Fungal Foods:
-Organic Matter (wood chips, leaves, straw etc.)
-JMS uses a potato in the brew and fungi seem to love it from my exp.
- Bokashi, fungi love grains as well.

Very interesting indeed, I've been trying to get Nate to do a rant on LAB and how it actually works with the plants and biology, I'll need to start asking him again, i love his rants they're so full of amazing knowledge.

sweet!!

This is amazing

for a fungal explosion try adding ~30ml fish hydrolysate to a cup of water and adding it to your fungal dom seed compost for extract 3 or 4 days before you do the extract/tea

[@ShootingtheSoil]

interesting, I use a FAA made from fish scraps right off the boat and ferment for 6 months 1:1 fish to organic brown sugar by weight. Have not noticed any increase in fungi from it as much as I see plant response and increased bacteria. But now that you say that I will look closer! Haven't looked into the "hydrolysate" process the company's use much, but have heard homemade FAA has the same stuff plus.

[@ShootingtheSoil]

What do you mean by "seed compost", like a sprouted seed tea? So seed tea, add fish hydrolysate then add that to the compost extract/tea?

[@glassbackdiy3949]

@@ShootingtheSoil just the initial batch of compost you use for the extract/tea, I sieve out ~3lb of JS compost, add hydrolysate to that and let it sit for 3 days before I'm going to make the extract, it came from one of Elaine Inghams AACT recipies, sometimes you can see mycelium growing in the compost after 3 days with naked eye, I think it triggers spores to germinate tho it's a presumtion, I'm not sure that's what's actually going on. I've only tried FAA with fresh water fish (3 hr drive from the sea here) looked different to the hydrolysate they sell to fishermen over here for soaking lines/bait, tho it seems to be the same process allowing enzymes to break it down according to their limited literature/sales shpeel

Is your channel name a reference to the origin of the term "dirt"?

[@ShootingtheSoil]

Yeah a bit, a few ways to look at it. Like shooting the soil with a camera to see what makes it soil so we don't shoot away our soil resources into dirt.

[@nontrashfire2]

@ShootingtheSoil oh gotcha. Sorry I was thinking of something else. The origin of dirt is "drit" and is old English for "$hit." I thought it was a pun. Some people get offended when you call soil dirt because they believe it is what is smeared on your clothes and not what plants grow. I'm but grass grows greener over a septic tank.
