- Unsulfured molasses is made from sugar cane sap - this has endophytes in it from when it was alive still. Some microbes are stimulated and very specific ones are selected for by high heat - hence this method of preparation (making molasses - boiling down sap into syrup) selects for and promotes very particular bacteria & fungi.

Hello, Matt .. Jason here - citizen scientist, father, author, movie producer .. and now, a guy having to go out and tell his audience that when he said that "The soil microbes don't care what kind of sugar you feed them so much - molasses was cheap, so farmers used that" that there is more to the story. Surviving endophytes. Thanks, Matt .. We'll adjust accordingly!
I've been making kombucha for over a year now and been using white sugar. I made some sorghum molasses from sorghum I raised so replaced half of the sugar with an equal volume of sorghum. The fermentation was more rapid and produced a lot more acetic acid. I think it was the added nutrients from the sorghum. sorghum.
Molasses works really excellent at drawing every pest that loves sweetness, which is pretty much every pest.
love your enthusiasm and energy when it comes to teaching man! theres nowhere near enough of that nowadays 💚
OO! Fresh Matt knowledge! This is the year I move onto my 6 acres! Finally time to get started! Thank you for all your help and what you do.
Enjoy the season.
thank you! lost of setting up, but i plan to do this a lot more in the future@@denniskemnitz1381
more and more every year :)@@denniskemnitz1381
I love not being the only person who thinks like this and does these things. It makes me so happy to see you are on the same track! Good job!
Hi Matt, thanks again, I didn't know you were Irish, much love from Ireland my friend.
Good morning Matt I have followed you on Facebook for years and saw you at the heirloom expo in Santa Rosa I believe twice. I have heard of people using molasses in water for plants so neat that it works. Thank you so much for all you do! Wendy Hardnack❤️💗💝
Hi Wendy! Thank you for following my work!!
@@ThePermacultureStudentThank you Matt I love what you do! Have a blessed weekend!
Excellent! Thank you so much Matt for all the wonderful work you do!
Fantastic information, thank you Matt!!
cant get enough of you teaching us
Thank you!! Come join us in Regenerative Soil - the community is very active! matt-powers.mykajabi.com/regenerativesoil
Love you do, Matt! I don’t watch every video, but your passion is so infectious ❤ thank you for being you 😊
I made my first deer feed this past year. Black strap was my flavor and binder. Red Winter Wheat Berries I added as well. The wheat started growing before the dee could eat it all. That was the end of November in Ohio. That wheat is over a foot tall
I love this info on molasses. This will open a whole new path of tests.
I love your passion.
Love, love, love your videos so much! I've been wondering how best to use molasses in gardening for years. Gonna try the seed soaking and molasses added to compost tea this year - can't wait. You the man!!!
Bestesis teacher. Excellent attitude. Pleasant to learn from. Jesus keep you.
I completed 4 semester hours general microbiology at kansas state
in 1975 and more after that. Brewed ACTeas for farm fields many times. Dennie😊
Great content. Props
Black strap molasses.
YES
Well done! Amazing imagery
Always a joy to learn things from you!!!
You look great Matt! Thanks for all the information and good vibes 🙏
Thank you! I'm feeling stronger and stronger!! Thank you for being here!!
Wow this is huge news, I never knew. Another miraculous characteristic of sugar cane.
THANK YOU FOR SAYING THIS. I love Dr. Ingham BUT!
Thank you ❤
I am glad someone with your knowledge helped clear this up. Molasses has fallen out of favour with cannabis growers. I love Molasses and quality manuka honey are staples for myself. I ruined a blackberry extract after 13 days using dark suger and Molasses, then bottled with Grolsh type bottle stopper. A few days later i popped the top and a champagne explosion of deep red sprayed all over my white grow room. 13 days to make and emptied within 30 seconds. Lesson learned; no extracts with Molasses.
Not I, I love molasses. I painted my kitchen with that same action you described. With kumbucha
Product may need more evaluation before eliminating it.testing ???
What process were you using to make the extract? What were the ingredients and steps taken? What kind of extract was it?
@hunterhatheway3830 I harvest nettles/dandelions or whatever I feel my plants need; then weigh the same amount of dark sugar. Mix well and leave for about 10 days. Strain the juice into container. Best to collect whatever you are extracting in the morning so it will have dew on it so there is more microbial life extracted. Extracts and ferments etc are fun to make and the plants love it. Enjoy.
@hunterhatheway3830 it was the Molasses that made it much more lively. Things should settle down before you bottle. It kept fermenting in the bottle and I should not have stoppered the bottle so the gases can escape. Now I know.
What's the best brand of molasses to buy?
It also dissolves rust on car parts.
Oh heck yesssss!
Thanks for validating Matt this is great to hear and I can’t wait to share!! ✌️🍄🫶🦠🙏🧑🌾🔬🧐🤯
Awesome video! Makes me wonder, does honey have endophytes from the pollen?
there's only one way to know... :) :) :)
So… I wonder if mesquite syrup would perform similarly to molasses.
Here's a question, if I use Recharge or Stash Blend with molasses and a bunch of other stuff should I still use my molasses too? It doesn't seem like those powdered products could have as much sugar as the liquid molasses itself. Should I use both? Maybe use them together? Or separate? I usually use either of those products every other week, or mix a little of both. So now I wonder if a little molasses would be good to add.
A huge portion of Recharge is molasses - dried fruit still retains some microbes for sure - I need to test dried raisins this week. It's the same dormancy that KNF has with IMO-2
when did this, I thought my distilled water was contaminated lol did you run it though the minION Matt? Thanks for sharing!
You know what's next ;)
Matt, what was the dilution ratio and what kind of water did you use to view the molasses under microscope?
1/10 and distilled sterile laboratory water
Dood... Have you considered doing the next season of Bues clues? You have the gift. As for soil inoculants, its like throwing salt in the sea. True that its better to feed and build soil biology than just feed plants, but the right microbes will only prosper in the right environmemt. If you dont create the conditions for micorhiza, protazoa, predetory nematodes etc, they wont thrive. If you do create the right conditions, you wont need to add them, and their efects can be easily seen without a microscope, in the tilth and life of the root zones of soil & plants. So focusing on inputs and microbiology vs actual environmental pracitices is fascinating, but a colasal waste of time if you have farming to do, and are actually interested in interacting with nature as part and particle of her generative and regenerative realities at scale. We are better adapted to understand our habitat with our plain senses if we only pay attention.
We have the privilege of having access to local maple syrup where I live. Do you believe it should have the same effect. I have seen Chris Trump use simple cane sugar to great effect.
I am going to also try honey, fruit juices, fruit spreads/jams, nut butters, stevia, etc. as other sugar sources. They should all work. I will be interesting to see which ones as more effective over the others.
Not stevia though @FarmerCheryl
@@lcotee I grow my own stevia. So, I will use the liquid I extract from leaves. I am sure this will contain the microorganisms. I don’t extract using processes that kills the microorganisms.
@@FarmerCheryl I think their point, and I believe the point of this video, is the organisms that exist in these different natural sugars because they thrive off them. While also raising brix production in many different plants.
THIS is going to be AWESOME!!
I don't know what you are trying to say in this video. But in distilling, when we use a lot of sugars, the batch will run hot and fast, and you have to put in an additive to feed the yeast. But if you use molasses, no additive is needed, you get a real nice run and it's natural. Molasses is great.
I just ran across, all sounds confusing since i just stumbled upon this. Will learn more, but in the meantime is it healthy to ingest a tablespoon of molasses?
John kempf was asked if the type of sugar mattered. He said it didn't. The minerals in blackstrap molasses help the plants.
There was another vdeo where you ad molasses breeds parhogenic stuff in compost tea. So when isit okay to use molasses? Thanks!
Is molasses still comsidered an innoculate if it is dry molasses? Is the biological count the same.or less?
Also, Matt, can you remind me of the microscope that you recommend?
For the top of the line I recommend LWScientific i4 + Lumin unit, but they also have cheaper units that are great and my students get a large discount
YOU DA MAN! i plan on joining youe course forreal this year. I have taken your course in the past but this time I am going to pay what you deserve. I will never forget how much you gave away for free@@ThePermacultureStudent
YOU DA MAN! I will be taking that course this year. I took your course before but I couldn't afford it before. I will never forget what you have shared with us for free
What do you know about iodine? How does it effect the bacteria?
Hi from New Zealand,I was growing mushrooms for the table and iodine is used to kill everything in the medium to start spawn after rinsing.so it kills bacteria and unwanted microbes.hope that helps
where is molasses being analyzed and by which standard method of examination? Which standard testing method are "you" using? Dennis
buy the course and find out 😂
One problem could be I took 4 semester hour general microbiology class around 25 years ago. Shortly after completed 3 or 4 credit hour one semester food science course. A lot of water gone under the bridge since.
Do you have gmo free molasses?
Organic, non-sulfured, and GMO free :)
what aboput the sulfure??/
Unsulfured molasses is the one folks use for EM-1 extensions, for compost tea, etc. Please feel free to put the sulfured one under the microscope if you have it. It's another form of selection.
ok thank you i am realy your books and i would like to follow yu program for microscopy.i am experimenting johnson su reactor i have 70 done to sate since about 3 months i want to reach 150 to get a new 100 tons.i am inbto wood vinegar and biochar to...i start all reactor with EM!, i premare top make EM1 expension tomorrow, 1000 liters..@@ThePermacultureStudent
In a previous video, "Crazy FUNGAL Compost Tea" you mentioned molasses grows pathogenic microbes. Is it all good now ?
Molasses is a non-discriminating food that is a simple sugar - it feeds pathogens and bacteria, but that doesn't mean it's bad: it means we have to be careful with it - it can promote and make a small problem larger when we want things to go the other direction. Healthy plants exude long chain sugars - simple sugars attract pathogens. That's the issue. You can use it -but it's about how much and when.
Do you consider lactose, sucrose, fructose, or dextrose all equal as biological innoculants? Possibly should or could be... OR may be. How about mannose?
Don't sleep on malt barley and corn steep liquor ... coconut water & aloe are good too.
Are we needing more field and analytical lab testing of some home brews we inventing. Dennis
I have occasionally wondered during my kansas timber wandering why patches of stinging
nettles, lambs quarters, red rooted pig weeds and other so called weeds appear so healthy.
I Have another set of questions combined with keyboard malfunction or most likely operater problem. .......here goes..
Why do some plants, ie stinging nettles, poison ivy, especially "weeds" appear so healthy along creeks and under established trees????? Cannot be only because they came here on the mayflower or the Arc.. Question too generalized I suppose for a specific answer. As Watson quotes, I imagine it's elemental.
just in time for inoculating bo-coffee this am 😉 LABs ready
What is defn of a biological innoculant. Something which causes gram positive and gram negative microbes to double in numbers every 15 minutes??
HoW about gram - and/or gram + microorganisms doubling within some standard time frame??.
WE ARE ON THE RIGHT PATH!
The Guardian: according to a study, "4% of women tested positive for a toxic weed killer in urine samples."

🕵️♀️WHAT I NEVER PUT IN MY SOIL IS FATS/ ANIMAL FATS OR MEATS..NO SIR NO WAY...
I must have missed that bit. So what do you do with your animal stuff?
The Professor Emeritus from the University in New Mexico told my master gardening class he adds everything to his compost pile, including dead animals, used motor oil, all plant matter, dryer lint………
