    Man when you use those blades to trim the pleasure of a well made tool is all the commission I need for now. My previous trimmers resemble a Neanderthal's tool by comparison....

  2. I collect ghost crabs once a year about half a sack. I smash up the crabs and then boil all the meat off. I bury this with activated labs and kashi in my compost heap. The shell I sun dry then I toast the shell with a gas torch(faster and cheaper than the stove) I then put the toasted shell into pure water with a fermented vinegar for a couple days. Again I sun dry and then crush to a powder. The finer the shell is crushed the easier the microbes in the soil can break it down(faster)

  3. Hey there! I'm pretty excited to see the wisdom you have to share. I'm hopefully going to be trying out KNF (and beginning some 50 litre no-till pots) come next season, provided the landlord allows it. ;)

     

    What type of aeration soil component do you use? I've been looking at pumice myself.

    Thanks for the vote of confidence. I use perlite  but only 30/70 in my no till setup. I also put 10% petemoss. It's worthwhile to set up a trading name for yourself so you can get access to the nursery supply groups. Nursery's have huge markups.

    I will put up a soil recipe next couple days.....

  4. I actually found my last 5kg in a second hand shop but I will be importing again soon. I find most soil amendments are not available here so I make most and import a couple.

     

    where do you source from abroad? That down to earth brand in the states has every amenment imaginable

    I source what I need when I do an order every 8-12 months. I have not imported glacial dust yet. I did bring in other soil amendments from the states though. Only problems I had in the past was with bat guano from South America otherwise it's pretty simple.

  5. I do use mycorrhizal. I add it to the roots with a teaspoon off glacial dust when transplanting

     

    Where do you find glacial dust SS? I can only find basalt(turbo grow) here in SA

  6. Welcome @SoilSamurai

     

    What kinda soil mix are you growing with?

    Hey guys thanks for the welcome. I use the Korean natural framing method. I built my soils from scratch almost two years back and now I top dress, worm teas every week or so and inoculation with activated labs and em1s I have brewing on every water. I also dress once a week or so with my own kashi bran. The soil has not been tilled since the first planting and absolutely no fertilizers. Occasionally I will topdress with an amendments like kelp powder. Feed the soil.....peace

  7. Hi all. What a magnificent day. I have grown for many years and tried most methods. I have developed a love for no till, probiotic growing. That is how I grow now. Looking forward to some great information exchange....
