So I decided to start experimenting with Korean Natural Farming and Fermented fruit juice as a pH down and extra to my standard feeding schedule. ⚠️Types of fruits best suited to making FFJ are non-citrus fruits and vegetables high in potassium.⚠️ It’s best if fruits are at the height of ripeness. This is because the sugar content is at its highest then. Source everything as locally as possible if you’re not growing it yourself, no such luxury for me living in Berlin Germany so I have to use what I I've got from the Supermarket. 🍌🍉Fermented fruit juice recipe for flowering🍉🍌 📍 1200g Unrefined Sugar(Wiki values) Calcium 85 mg (per 100g) Iron 1.91 mg Magnesium 29 mg Phosphorus 22 mg Potassium 133 mg Sodium 39 mg Zinc 0.18 mg 📍200g Banana peels(Wiki values) Iron 0.26 mg (per 100g) Magnesium 27 mg Manganese 0.27 mg Phosphorus 22 mg Potassium 358 mg Sodium 1 mg Zinc 0.15 mg 📍800g Watermelon fruit and peels/bark(Wiki values) Calcium 7 mg (per 100g) Iron 0.24 mg Magnesium 10 mg Manganese 0.038 mg Phosphorus 11 mg Potassium 112 mg Sodium 1 mg Zinc 0.1 mg 📍300g Ginger with skin(Wiki values) Calcium 16 mg (per 100g) Iron 0.6 mg Magnesium 43 mg Manganese 0.229 mg Phosphorus 34 mg Potassium 415 mg Sodium 13 mg Zinc 0.34 mg 📍200g Mix salad rests Nutritional value unknown!! 📍0.8ml Bio Heaven 📍0.8ml Top Max 🚧All chopped in squares thrown in a plastic 8l bucket and covered with about 1200g Raw/dark Sugar and mixed well covered and now I have to wait for it to ferment and draw all the minerals out for about 3 weeks, in the meantime I'll be checking every day and remixing it to make sure it's all mixed well 🚧 After 3 weeks when I'm done with this batch I'll do one for the Vegetative stage and pH down combo.

Way to go! It's awesome that you make your own inputs. I often feed a stinging-nettle FPJ during veg, an apple FFJ during early flower, and a banana FFJ for that extra potassium boost in late flower. BTW, where do you get your sugar? The cheapest place I've found to buy unrefined organic sugar is DM (2,25 € / kg.)

love_2_growcommenteda year ago
@nonick123, It's pretty straightforward: mix the plant/fruit material with brown sugar 1:1 in a glass jar, top it off with a layer of sugar, cover the jar with some cloth, and leave it to ferment for 5-10 days in a dark place. Look up Korean Natural Farming (KNF) to learn more.

@love_2_grow, I'm not sure about the price of it but I buy from my local Rewe Supermarket Berlin Germany, it's my first actually with the Korean way of making things I tried to use classic organics like humus, worm shit, bat guano and other things but the results were never good enough to justify the trouble and smell, especially the smell indoors and the results are rarely immediate with those methods, with FFJ I see a difference in a day max. Love the Koreans smart people 👌

@Terp1, Dankeschön 🙏 Es ist neu für mich auch, bis jetzt reagieren die Damen ganz okay hatte I paar minimal burned tips auf Medusa #3 aber deswegen rennt sie im moment Xtreme schnell zum Ziel 😁. Ich nehme auch gerne Empfehlungen an 🙏

Muy bueno Yan! No existe la posibilidad de que se cree alcohol en el líquido resultante? De ser así, no afecta la vida del sustrato?

@yan402, magnífica respuesta, pasteurización es la clave de la salubridad 🤞🤞 Gracias a ti por compartir información valiosa, yo hago mis kombuchas para aprovechar como regulador de pH y también para aplicación foliar... La verdad es que el mundo orgánico no tiene competencia 💐💐💐

yan402commented2 years ago
@Sour_D, It's definitely interesting 🤔 I'm already using a "light" version and my first impressions are quite good even though I see some deficiencies on Medusa#1+3 the bud development speaks for itself in combi with good genetics off course. And it's quite potent as well I had slight nutrient burn on Medusa#3, and it works as a pH down the only thing is this you have to keep adding water in your reservoir to keep the pH from dropping as it is still "active" I guess depending on dosage. I'm still learning though. Thanks for dropping by 🙏❤️

yan402commented2 years ago
@Hou_Stone,I'll be using this batch probably on my mystery seeds diary as it's going to take 3-4 weeks to finish fermenting, but I did do a "lighter" version out of curiosity, which I fermented only for a bit less than 2 weeks and only with banana peels and watermelon which I'm using already, and I can say that it's quite potent got some burned tips so I'll have to keep on "experimenting" and tune my main nutrient schedule differently. Thanks for dropping by 🙏

@Hologram, Thank you 🙏, me too 😁. I did use one batch already on my Medusa and they seem to like it, only challenge I have is with keeping my pH steady it tends to drop quite fast.

@yan402, da dies mein zweiter grow mit hesi bio ist kann ich echt sagen mega 👊🍀👊. Ich versuch so minimalistisch zu Düngen wie geht . Schau dir mal die Inhaltsstoffe von den Dünger an und du wirst zufrieden sein . Oder schau doch einfach mal in meine aktuellen Diaries nach . 👊🍀👊

@GrowWithFlow, Wenn es nicht so klappt wie ich das haben möchte Dan wird ich Hesi ausprobieren, das gute in Berlin ist das man Hesi fast in jeder Ecke finden kann oder bestellen(growshops) Danke für den Tipp ich wusste nicht dass Hesi Bio Dünger hat.🙏❤️

@Hologram,Just chilling in the kitchen having one coffee after another trying to get some energy to defoliate my babies had a rough week at work so a Coffein overload is necessary before I even start. I'll be making pics as well later of the defoliation progress.

@yan402 y @love_2_grow al final me he lanzado a hacerlo! He hecho FFJ de platano y un FFJ de jengibre (por separado) He leído que es mejor por separado porque las fermentaciones de las diferentes frutas pueden tener tiempos distintos y solapar o disminuir la carga microbiana entre ellas A ver cómo me sale Gracias por inspirarme! 😍🙏♥️

Apecio muito, fertilizante cazeiro. Eu estou sempre experimentar, coisas nova. Tenho 2 genéticas desconhecidas, comigo alguns anos, 1 de 2001, e outra de 2004, sementes de rua, mas que amai e amo. E desde 2012, tenho cruz ele com genéticas de compra, muitas muitas plantas, só para experiência, estou com 2 na 6⁰ cruzamento = e plantação só a estabilizar. Neste momento com 9 cepas em estudo, média 50 plantas cada, tenho experimentado de tudo tipo remédio cazeiros, e envestido um pouco também, tudo que experimentar por favor partilhe. Coisa que sei que resulta algum, leite, canela, ortigas, flor salgueiro, banana, batata, fungos colhidos no mato, atenção experiencia fungos planta solitária, já me vi aflito para me livrar de um, matando lentamente plantação, obrigado fazer clones de minhas cepas, e barraca nova, e nem assim morreu tudo, minhas sepas quero virar genéticas minha, tenho smpre muita espalhada por o mato, rio e outos, foi que me valeu. Algumas delas sozinhas sem as ver ciclo todo de vida, 2 vez ou local plantar, colher quando estão mas como são muitas há sempre sobreviventes. Desculpe relatório, fiz um fumo muito potente, estou sozinho, Plantas felizes Bons fumos

@Tmasm, Thanks for dropping by and I'm glad you liked my diary, this weekend I might give it another go with fermented plant juice as that one failed to ferment properly, fermented fruit juice seems easier to make so far. 🙏❤️
