Saying 'this is perma culturepimp daddy'made me a intant subscriber 😂
Thank you! I’m doing a version of this with worm castings from my vermicompost, soil from a local forest, bootstrap molasses, and fish and seaweed fertilizer. Planting 5 new fruit trees and going to treat the holes with this mix! So thankful for your videos.
Thank you for sharing these ideas. We are full time RVers and eventually we will be setting up a homestead. For now we are just learning. I look forward to watching more. Blessings. Sherry
RVWeekends Thank you Sherry for taking time out of your day to watch! I have to admit a certain degree of envy regarding your RVing lifestyle right now.
Very good simple recipe and method. Thanks Airborne!
if you grow Comfrey you can make a brew with the leaves & kelp/seaweed it's amazing stuff although while brewing it smells like a port-o-potty on a summer day but anything in the garden will love it
We will definitely have to give that a shot. We have comfrey growing out of our ears here!
Dr. Elaine Ingham says if it smells bad... don’t use it. It’s anaerobic!!! Yes, it will kill some bad guys, but it will also kill the good guys in your soil... then you’re just working on making DIRT!
You can just chop & drop the comfrey instead (i.e. use the fresh leaves as mulch). It breaks down pretty fast, stops weeds from overtaking the soil, and is great food for plants. In fact, you can use any weed that isn't flowering and hasn't set seed for this purpose. Note: if it's a weed that spreads through runners or underground roots, make sure not to use those parts!
Having said that: growers in my native The Netherlands have been using comfrey tea and nettle tea as a foliar feed for over a century, with great results... Still, Dr Ingham haa done the research, so maybe better not to risk it?
@@garthwunsch anerobic is good the good anerobic teas i make smell good. Research jms jadam microbial solution.
@@GTILOUD yes, seen that before too. My own reasoning is that the soils of our plants are an aerobic environment so it doesn’t make sense to add anaerobic bacteria when they likely wouldn’t thrive in that environment. I tend to favour Elaine Ingham’s method. If I would use the JMS, I would probably want to bubble it first before adding.
great idea, I never would have thought about using the Tupperwares
Thank you, Tracy Morgan's cousin

So much more to planting than I could ever imagine.
Referencing the comment concerning chlorinated water: in the sunlight a minimum of two(2) hours to dissipate chlorine. Fluoride is Not affected by sunlight and may persist for Days!
If you know your water supply is fluoridated, I would recommend setting up a rainwater collection!
Rolling Hills Farm (Sherman tx) checking in and thank you for the mentoring and wisdom sharing! ❤
I know a Soldier when i see one. Lol the tone, instruction and look. Anyways, tyvm because im looking to compost for the first time.
He said, "drive on" with a knife hand and I knew... Thank you for your sacrifice and even more for choosing permaculture - very well made video :)
Funny/sad that youtube underlines permaculture as a misspelling. No wonder the world is what it is.
Thanks for sharing, did this a couple of days ago.
This was great, thank you!
Thank you!
Billy, if I do this and then irrigate with chlorinated city water a few days later will it kill all the microbes?
@@kyletruman8790 I am reasonably certain that it will.
@@PermaPasturesFarm21 Thank you!
Thanks Billy!
Thank you for watching!
Surprised, I stayed on the channel but great topic and liked what I'm seeing, Good video and I'm subscribed now on board
Thanks Billy
We’ll have to try that. Thanks for sharing 👍
Very cool. You should check out Korean Natural Farming, and especially the other side of the Korean NF house called JADAM. What you just made is a variation on a very old recipe from Master Cho's son called JMS. With JMS you don't need to use any air bubblers for it. Excellent stuff!
I’ll check it out!
@@PermaPasturesFarm21 ruclips.net/video/ZIRvmA2Gkgs/видео.html
I'm SO excited to do KNF this year. I've been making my JMS to inoculate my raised beds a few weeks before planting. Been making lots of biochar too and can't wait for green to grow again (March here in NH) to make fermented plant juice for fertilizer. I have my second batch of JMS going now by the woodstove, never too early to geta jump on the garden.
If you live in the city you also have to worry about cloramines. You have to agitate the water to release it into the air. Just let your bubblers aerate the water for a day or so before you add your ingredients for the tea.
This is false, cloramine is a liquid, it is not a gas! It will not just gas off , test it!
Exactly why I use RO water for plants.
Another informative video! Thank you!
StephT5 thank you!
My recipe: I just put 3 shovels of shredded leaves in a bucket and fill it with water for the next day. The next day, it's very brown and keeps the plants green. After I pour it on my plants, I refill the bucket for the next day.
Not only does the compost tea feed the plants, but the wet leaves build up a nice mulch and they break down easier to build up next year's soil.
TheRainHarvester great idea!
I'll definitely be trying that this spring. Thanks
Have you looked at your tea under a microscope to see what’s really active in there?
At our old place we kept a tub full of water and threw all of our weeds into it. It stunk to high heaven but was magic for our plants.
@@minutemandefense3935 mosquitos will lay eggs in the water unless you cover it or treat it but treatment involves chemicals
Thanks. If you brew microbes in a 5 gallon bucket I also use much more aeriation with a 1300 gallon per hour air pump to aerate while brewing. Oat or other meals are crutial for fungi growth. Molassis feeds bacteria you need fungal food. Your process is similar to JADAM and Korean Natural Farming. Use immediately because water is an anaerobic medium that suffocates your beneficial bugs
The problem with this thinking is everything matters, no one size fits all, a pump at sea level is different than a pump above sea level.
Food levels at 70 degrees VRs 90 degrees is vastly different.
It all comes down to DO or desolved oxygen content in the water, too much food at a higher temperature will make anything go anaerobic, I don’t use any food in Texas, it will grow too many bugs too fast, and they will deplete the oxygen.
Again it all comes down to the DO levels, and keeping things aerobic.
So, no one size fits all, temperature, sea levels, barometric pressure, they all matter.
A D.O. Meter is really the answer, the total DO you can achieve in your area is available from USGS.
Or stick to the smell test, and hope for the best.
I literally laughed out loud at ‘permaculture pimp.’
It has a funny ring to it.
Meant Vermiculture
Premature Vermiculture!
Great video bro! If I could make a suggestion maybe you should let kelp sit in water for 24 hours before making tea. All the experts say that kelp is antimicrobial for the first 24 hours. Then after that it makes great microbial food.
Noface Chase Thanks for the tip! I’ll definitely give it a try.
Is that true for liquid kelp amendments as well?
Great video I do make compost tea it is very successful I use it as foliar drench as well.
G'day mate, nice informative vid, with the tap water ( chlorine and chloramine) let that bubble for 24 hours 😀 there is a recipe using fish, but... Yours seems way easier. From my understanding using both bacteria and fungus in equal proportions gives the best results. 6-800 micromoles of each per gram is awesome for your nightshade plants.... The forests you talk about have anywhere up to 70,000 micromoles per gram of fungus... I love this stuff.... Your a really good teacher man!! Keep doing your thing man. God bless 😀😊😁
Thank you so much for that helpful information and blessings to you and yours my friend!
Your too kind brother, fish hydrolysite ( spelling ) was what I was thinking about, grind up a whole fish, molasses equal parts and a couple of teaspoons of lactic bacillus ( buy or make some sourcrout, it's the liquid you use) mix with water.... Anyway, I'll be binging on your vids!! Stay safe and god bless 😁😀😊
@@craiganderson3952 thanks a million!
If I'm not mistaken, the fermented fish you are talking about produces fish amino acid, not mycorrhizal fungi (still very beneficial to the soil, though - and cheap if you can get free fish scraps from a fish monger or fisherman!) I am trying to think who did a video with a tutorial on that... I'll come back to comment if I can find it, but until then: search youtube for "fish amino acid knf" (KNF = Korean Natural Farming).
Thanks this was VERY helpful. Some folks treat compost tea like mystic ritual I appreciate the simple step by step. Any chance you could address how or if you guys do mineral supplements for your sheep? We're just getting going with sheep and our pastures have just been brushhogged for quite a while by the previous owners so they aren't in awesome shape and are progressing succession towards blackberry and elderberry in a lot of spots
David Pritchett thank for the kind response and thanks for watching. We will do a comprehensive video on minerals and another one on how to graze tough pastures with sheep by the end of the week.
@@PermaPasturesFarm21 awesome I will look forward to it! I also really appreciate your armchair talks.
and a great way to start your seeds and rooted plants is to soak them in the compost tea before planting...
Thanks for the tip on oatmeal. Have you ever tried it as a top dressing?
You did a good job
Thank you!
You can get that,to happen in a big bag using any microbes ,,fish compost..once you put it in the garden , the neighborhood changes..propagate n the same hole ,, I mean grow rhe fungus first and then plant something in it
I’m a believer in mycorrhizal fungi for trees, vines and shrubs. Have you ever included it in your compost tea?
We have indeed! In fact, I intend to get back to doing it.
I heard mycorrhizal fungi gets out competed by other microbes and dies within hours of brewing in a microbe-tea but idk. I would still add it every time!
@@ziggehed6166 basically, you add mychorhizal fungi at the end of brewing few hour before application
I read somewhere so I don't know how good the info is but I heard put your fish fert. With your soil your using in compost tea then after 12hrs then use the molasses cause it takes the fungal stuff a bit longer to get going so your trying to out compete the bacteria so the fungi can be there too unlike using molasses right away. I do this and my plants seem to love it. But it could just be from the tea itself and nothing else. Lol
This is so good. Thanks New sub
Literally type "fungal dominated compost tea" and this video 😃
Thank you Denzel Obama
Triple P ! Great garden
Thank you!
I have a question: how do you know that those fungi are surviving or even propagating in aerated water? Bacteria definitely do, but I'm really interested fungi. I mean, one thing is believing or hoping, but knowing usually has certain benefits 😀
Water-wise, I think that all that soil life would just love rainwater...
according to Elaine Ingham fungal hyphea will multiply every three hours if the tea is brewed properly.
Ahhhhhahahahahaha yooo I used pimpdaddy as a game tag for a brick xD
P.I.M.P = Permaculture Is My Passion
Take this sub sir 🤣
Thank you, awesome
Hey I really learned a ton from your video. Thank you! Question about forest soil... You tell us to get LOCAL forest soil. So define 'local' for me. I can drive 20 minutes from my house and find a really lush, diverse little forest. Is that too far? Or I can walk a mile away to a forest-like creek area. Thoughts?
I believe it means the same climate. So the fungus microbes you're picking up will still thrive in your garden.
Fungal dominated compost tea, #composttea #fungalcomposttea #earthloveglobal
We totally agree with your principles in soil fertility.
It really needs to be viewed under a microscope, pre and post bubbling to ascertain what is living in the sample
If put the city water out in the sun With a bubbler it will flash off the chlorine faster
Put it in a large flat tub to increase the surface area & put it in the sun.
IMO's .......local grown microbes gathered on your property...JDAM farming KNF (korean natural farming.....
Man your voice sounds like Guru.
Awesome recipe btw

My dog nollie has a licker problem too. Never met another nollie
The fish stones and aeration overnight will generally purge the chlorine from town water
But they might contain chloramine..
@@arrhazes8198 they have filters you can get to filter that out I use a garden hose filter works hreat
You can add a small amount of vitamin C to clear the chlorine.
Is compost made with pig manure safe to use on vegetable gardens ?
Lovely video , do you recommend Coco coir with your recipe ?
Nice
You mentioned bacterial dominant tea being used on foliage... Can you spray fungal dominant on foliage as well? Thanks for the video!
Yes indeed!
@@PermaPasturesFarm21 beautiful! Thanks so much for your response 🙏 ✌️
Sorry for newbie question but ... what's the difference between foliar sprays and watering the roots?
@@erin2535 don’t think there is much of a difference. I think foliar sprays is just about meeting the plants where it’s at in terms of where it takes in nutrients. If we only feed the roots, we are wasting the opportunity to feed them where their other “mouths” are. I always understood that it only feeds on soluble nutrients whereas the roots require the microbes to make nutrients available to it. I recently came across opinions that biology in the leaves help prevent bad microbes from causing diseases on the plant. So I think it won’t hurt to cover it as well.
Great video, if anyone can advice, can you please advice me how often can we drip feed compost tea in to my fruits plants. Can we do every week ect, to in Reese fungal population to my plant trees.
I’m not sure why you would want to drip feed compost tea though. The compost tea is not the food. It is the microbes that will make food for the plant so the compost tea is best used going into the soil right away so the microbes can get to work. Compost tea doesn’t store very long either.
Were you a sergeant airborne in a past life? Just curious. Saw you wearing one of those black t's in one of the composting videos :)
what about rain water? would that work as an alternative to well water?
Sunlight/air will remove chlorine, but not chloramine! So no city water, as most cities add both chlorine and chloramine.
Some vitamin c powder will eliminate the chloramine in the water but be sure to ph your water because the ascorbic acid will drop the ph way down. Always ph the water before adding the compost.
I understand Humic acid to work as well. I wonder if that works any better than Vit C?
Sadly my area has no forests close
Why kind of oats?
When u say “from the chicken tractor” is is chicken feces?
Please describe what exactly and how to gather from the forest floor
Hi Billy, do you have a refractometer by any chance? I'm trying to establish whether tea can be monitored using brix readings. My brew has molasses in it so I get a brix reading of 0.5 at the start, goes up to 1 and then drops down to 0. I was wondering whether you see anything like this? I was thinking, if this is a thing, it might be a cheap and dirty way for people to understand when their brew might be considered ready. As you mention in your video, plenty of people still question the validity of this technique. Regards Richard
On more thing, I'm sure you will be aware of Sepp Holtzer and his mountain farm, and you've been speaking about zones. I wondered whether you could use a pocket pond as a large bubbler and send the tea down the side of the road in a very shallow gully and divert as required. Just thinking out loud 🤔
Hello sir, i have potted trees. Does this work for that ? Im thinking the fungus and stuff attach to the root and basically spread out to get more nutrients and stuff. Thats why im asking since im wondering if this matter for potted plants. If im just trying to feed it, would bacterial be better? Thanks
Fungal is almost always better with trees. I’m not sure if there’s a difference because it being potted.
@@PermaPasturesFarm21 ty for your reply.
Hilarious non glyphosated oatmeal. You know what she buys. 😂
Leaf mold is fungal dominating compost so can we take leaf mold insted of 18 day compost ??
That would probably work!
From Asia
Glad to have you!
Where do you buy kelp ?
We get from a farm about 30 miles away.
You don't have nearly enough air flow to have an aerobic environment
This man needs to learn what a tablespoon looks like.
Bubble any water for an hour and it outgasses all the chlorine and flourine...
