I'm to closing this diary as I have decided to buy one instead.

Fermented Fruit Juice (FFJ) Diary Grower: kingcrab Project: Homemade Fermented Fruit Juice (FFJ) for Cannabis Cultivation What is FFJ? FFJ (Fermented Fruit Juice) is a natural, homemade nutrient rich in: Sugars Enzymes Hormones Vitamins It's a core part of Korean Natural Farming (KNF) but also perfect for low-cost, organic grows. Helps with plant health, growth, and overall vitality. Ingredients: 0.5 kg pumpkin skins 0.5 kg watermelon skins 250 g used coffee grounds 0.5 kg cannabis leaves 0.5 kg tomato leaves 200 g broccoli Traces of chicken (approx. 50–100 g) Eggshells Brown sugar (1:1 ratio with total weight) --- Tools: 8l plastic bucket (no metal) Cheesecloth or breathable lid Scale for measuring Preparation: 1. Chop the fruits and greens into pieces. 2. Weigh the total biomass and add equal weight of sugar. 3. Mix until everything is coated. 4. Place in jar, cover with cloth. 5. Store in a dark, warm place for 5–7 days (stir daily). 6. Once fermented, strain the liquid = this is your FFJ. Application: Vegetative stage: 1–2 ml per liter of water Flowering stage: 0.5–1 ml per liter (optional) Apply 1–2 times per week Notes: FFJ boosts microbial life Increases flavor, aroma, and plant resilience Works in soil, coco, and hydro (small doses) Next Steps: Prepare first batch (Pumpkin, Watermelon, Coffee, Cannabis leaf, Tomato leaf, Broccoli, Chicken, Eggshell mix) Document fermentation process (photos + notes) Apply to current grow and track results

Welcome to the Disgusting Diary. Out of pure boredom, I decided to brew something truly questionable: a homemade fermented plant juice (FPJ) that’s been sitting for 3–4 months in a bright green 8L bucket. This mix wasn’t made with just fruits and vegetables like the traditional Korean natural farming recipes — no, this one’s a monstrosity. Ingredients: Overripe fruit and forgotten veggies Cannabis fan leaves from defoliation Tomato plant scraps Chicken bones Eggshells Old ground coffee ...probably more stuff, but honestly I forgot what else I threw in Fermentation agent: Black sugar (the dark, sticky stuff — not molasses) Storage: Sat outside in partial shade for 3–4 months untouched, through winter and early spring Sealed and stirred occasionally with a wooden stick (which also lives in the bucket now) Tools for processing: Stainless steel sieves Cooking pot for filtering Repurposed 5L fertilizer jug Two glass bottles with caps Funnel with mesh Current use: Instead of bottling it and forgetting it again, I’m finally using it in my active grows. Starting light: 10ml per 30L nutrient solution — just to see if the plants explode or run away screaming. Applied across both my tent plants and the tomatoes/chilies outside. Why? No reason. Boredom. Curiosity. Chaos.
