Thank you so much for this video. I am watching it from Turkey and I will be using this method to help with my olives. I cannot thank you enough for making the information about Knf accessible, streamlined and very informative. I love all your videos and appreciate how much you're helping other comeback to natural approaches.
my God!
I am delighted!
my name is sasha, I grow mushrooms on a small urban farm in russia.
flattered by the visuals, content, presentation and accent!
I want to recommend leaving the harvested cultures for a week in the refrigerator, so that more generations of bacteria and fungi would produce spores in unfavorable conditions.
because living colonies will definitely not survive sugar conservation, and spores will definitely survive.
Forgive the illiteracy of expressions, Google translator tried as best he could.
Hello, I totally missed this comment! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and great feedback. I’ll make sure to follow your advice :)
Отличный совет. Спасибо. Давно искал метод как заставить аэробные бактерии, микроорганизмы и фунги образовать споры для дальнейшего хранения.
Очень интересно будет поэкспериментировать с вермикомпостом и в идеале получить собственный жидкий биогумус с полезными бактериями, микроорганизмами и фунги который как говорят производители очень сложно получить в домашних условиях
You have explained IMO better than anyone I've come across yet👊👊
wow thanks, I really appreciate it!
Really dude, I am going to sound a bit dramatic, but this video and probably your others (I haven't seen yet) are really leading us the right way/ direction.. The beauty of this and your experiments is the scalability.. Most people can get into this on a small scale without need for specialty equipment..
thank you so much mate, I really appreciate the support and it makes me feel really happy to hear such a positive feedback =)
@@SpicyMoustache Yeah turning the words and pictures into videos is a bigtime help
I just found your channel today. I've never heard of collecting IMO's. Really struggling helping my Mom with her garden. It's hot, dry, and sometimes windy for days. They use irrigation 3 times per week. Thank you for making high quality videos! Very informative.
I love your videos, it inspires me to cultivate more and more I’ve been gardening for a couple of years now but watching you moves me to do it ata larger scale than just a few tomatoes and cucumbers, I wanna build raised beds out of tires and grow ginger in them. I want to collect IMO and fertilize my plants with them. Thank you
Wow. My brain is swimming after that! Amazing! Thank you for your work! 💗
I’m really happy you liked it! Appreciate your support :)
Really enjoyed this. I've been researching this for a while. This video had everything I needed to know. Great job
Thank you so much, appreciate it :)
Nice video. I found your video had better flow than others I've seen on this topic. It was helpful for a refresher.
My first deep dive into IMO's- Thanks for the clear and informative video -
Lovely concise explanation.
The best I’ve seen!
I’m subscribed and will be checking out your other vids.
Thank you for the time you put into making these.
So appreciative of your channel you dont even know. Thank you for sharing 💕
Awww that’s so kind, thank you so much ☺️
Great job explaining this. Great video. Good production value. Good content.
I just learned about you from TikTok! I love your content and the idea behind enriching the lovely planet we live on:)
I have been using knf i inputs for a couple years now, i absolutely love the results i have been able to achieve. I can produce the best medicine for a mere fraction of the cost. I enjoy collecting and making inputs. Fertility is everywere i look at the world different now i see fertility every were.
Yes mate, same here! I started not too long ago but I’m really digging it and I feel the same way about the world around me!
Great video on this! Thanks for this!
The IMO that you showed here looks just like one I collected in my area (New England, similar climate). Was a little discouraged but it’s cool to see it’s usable. Awesome video. Also sweet flecktarn
Thanks for demonsting and explaining the process .
I subscribed, im from UK too .
I will be trying to collect in my local area and eventually further out .
It eill be interesting to see what bacteria and trichoderma live in British soils .
My original idea was to go out looking for mushrooms 🍄 in the woods . I wanted to collect that soil and add it to my spil and compost teas .
This is the next level .
Respect 👍
Love your videos!
I just completed my first box and have it stored it jars 😊 had a complete rainbow in there
Love this. And I will be making them for my garden. ty
Thank you Spicey! Your ‘recipe’ is duly noted😊
Muchas gracias Spicy Moustache por compartir tus experiencias. Buena hora parcero. Saludos desde Bogotá, Colombia
Well said my support
Thanks for documenting this ! I have been wanting to see results on this scale.
I’m happy you liked it! It really works and I highly recommend you to give it a go 😊
Amazing new info.for me so doing this
I thoroughly enjoyed your video, Keep up the good work and Sharing knowledge on Natural Farming, God Bless you.
Thank you so much, I appreciate it your feedback :)
Honestly one of the best videos on the subject for any newbie to dip their feet in. Very clear and well formulated. Well done bro.
Thank you so much mate! I’m happy you liked it 😊
Ya I’ve been watching, nature’s always right , epic gardening and huw Richards, channels, and none of them explain it like this dude, right on man!!
Subscribed! Thanks for the video
Thank u so much great job it’s helpful video
Thank you so much.
Wow, I realy learn so much from you thank you.😊
I have to learn thanks for the video
Thanks. It's help. 🇰🇷✨⭐👍
Very interesting method that I need to read up on, don't know much about KNF but sounds like a great way keep up the great work
My god great bloke ,great knowledge
I’ve been buying mycorrhizae for a while now - this method is so much better and cheaper. Thanks for this
I used it as well with great results but yes, this is much cheaper and really efficient. However, if you are transitioning from conventional farming to traditional methods, it might take a bit longer :)
Just in time for my Small scale farm school class tomorrow, and we're slated to be learning soil practices!!
That’s awesome! I wish I could have some classes as well to learn more about soil!
thanks SM
Your videos are so good! Very inspiring.
Thank you so much for the love, appreciate it :)
thanks for the great explanation im have been wondering how to use it YAH IS GOOD!
Good video!
Foodbox won my like, acessible!
Interesting content
Look nice with glasses 😊😊
Thanks bro
Am I not in school?! Wow!! Awesome!!
Alessá te se ama, grazie per sti video
Keep educating people
Thank you mate, appreciate it!
This was such a great video! You seem so passionate about what you do. I'm curious if the IMO 2 can be used for house plants, or if its not recommended.
Thank you so much! Yes, you can use it for houseplants 100% 😊
I would he interested in seeing you create IMO 3 and so on, this was well laid out and professional
Thank you very much! I really need to make a video about IMO3, it just takes a bit of time which I struggle to find nowadays but I promise I’ll make it :)
@@SpicyMoustache no worries, hey whenever you can find some of said extra time but no rush.
very nice video.. thank u
No worries, I’m happy you liked it :)
I'd love it if you could do a test. One bed that had IMO applied and one bed with no IMO.
That’s a great idea, I might think about something and try to do a growth comparison. Thanks for the idea! 😊
Korean farmu g did not add sugar ?? Ceck back korean farming sugar???????
I have tested uncooked rice, half cooked and fully cooked rice. Half cooked gets way more of a population. I also sprinkled a little bit of 2-row malted barley (full of free beta-amylase... helps a lot in breakdown) on top of the IMO1 rice before it colonized.
How long do you ferment 1:1 IMO1/BS so you don't use it too early? How do you store it long term? Do you have to keep adding BS? Thanks!
thank you for a clear explanation of the process,
I have an allotment and wish to incorp[ortate some of the KNF and JADAM ideas to assist with cheaper and better technics that look after the soil,
I love the back-to-Eden method of using wood chip around the perennials,
this year I moved from one plot to another, on the same site, I should go check my old plot as the wood chip I had around the Rhubarb and at the base of a tree line become naturally inoculated with mycelium, as we are talking meters and not miles, the growing conditions are very similar but my new plot does have more sun due to no tree line,
so I'm going to try to reclaim some of the inoculated wood chip and incorporate it into my new plot and while I'm at it, I'll attempt this method to gather the IMO 1 and 2 as I know the box of rice will be left alone on the gated site.
btw
Epping Forest is not too far from me too =P
amazing
Thank you 😊
Hey dude awesome video. How long do you leave them in sugar before using imo 2? Do you strain or does the spoonful of imo2 just come out like jelly? I wonder if there was a process inbetween or is that why you strain before adding to the final watering mix?
The seed bombs are a fantastic idea
Thanks for all your videos. They are very helpful.
Can IMO1 be used or do you have to mix it with brown sugar and wait a while? If it need to set, what is the minimum wait time?
Thanks in advance
Thanks for your work on the videos, but most of all, thanks for spreading info and educating about these systems in the correct way. There's a lot of misinformation about jadam/knf out there. You really nail it well! I will tell you one thing though, finding leaf mould is hard in my arid area.
Thank you so much for the kind words! You are right, I think is best to make your own if you are based in such an area :)
Thank youu
🙌🏼💣🦠
Hi, I enjoyed this video very much and gained some knowledge. Thank you! May I know when the imo 3 video is coming out?
Thank you, I’m happy you liked it! I’m trying to work out when to do it as I had a few requests about it :)
This is great man…
Im def doing this this year.
How long should it take to reach the desired texture/state to use the imo-2 in water?
How do you keep feeding it? Is it kind of like sourdough? Can you keep feeding it to keep the imo and even grow it?
Or do i have to keep creating new imos constantly?
🙌🏼
Please part2!!!
I love the idea of closed or near as closed cycle gardening. Would the IMO plant feed have the same symbiotic effect on hydroponic plants as soil grown with naturally occurring microorganisms?
Very understanding I didn’t see that
Thank you 😊
Cool tattoos man
I fucking love it mate! This will take my grow to a whole another level!!! Let's fix earth not destroy it!!!! ❤️🌱✌🏾✌🏾✌🏾
Thanks a lot mate! Yes, I hope more people will start using natural methods! 😊
Hi! We have a fairly shady corner of our back garden where there is a well established birch tree, plus plenty of other vegetation, including what's growing in our neighbours' gardens. There's plenty of leaf mold under the tree. Do you think that this would be a good location for collecting IMO?
I really liked your video very much as you explain the steps easily, and I really enjoy your channel very, very much, I love your content. But I have some critique on your process for IMO1. I don't know if you really can collect IMO1 the way you do it. In the original setting you have wooden boxes (this is not important, only if you want to reuse them) that have 1-2mm gaps in the bottom so that the rice can get in contact with the soil. So the best way would be to poke holes in your box, fill in the rice (without the paper towels). Perhaps some rice would drizzle out, but that is not a problem, as this is building a bridge between the soil and your rice in the box. When the rice is inoculated via this bridge by the mycelium, it will clump together and stay in your box, even if some fell out of it. And the lid should also be open for airflow, only covered with a paper towel. On the wooden box, you can have a lid with a mesh so that critters can't get in. For your box, I don't know how you would do that, so that your rice don't get eaten by critters. So in essence, I think that your box is too closed up for IMO to get in.
Great video Alessandro! Can you cause damage to crops if you over fertilize the soil?
You won’t cause damage by over applying IMO :)
Your IMO isn't suppose to look like a tyedye shirt, the colours are usually from bad bacteria brought in by bugs when they munch on the rice it should be white and fuzzy, try using a closed wooden box the IMO can go through the wood but bugs cant! "pureknf drake" here on youtube has hours and hours of info on making imo and has personally studied under Cho, aswell as chris trump. Awesome and informative video to introduce the best way of growing!!!
Thank you Sam, I’ll definitely check it out. I watched all Chris’s videos and I’m studying every night JADAM and KNF. I spoke to a few people that studied with some of this big names in KNF and they said that my collection it’s good. Not a grade A but still usable in the garden. I’ll try with the wooden box next time, at the moment, I have another collection out in cardboard at the moment in a really good spot, let’s see how it goes.
I am using material collected from beaver dams to build a microbiome in a series of raised beds. Do you have any suggestions on how to identify specific species of fungus, bacteria, or indicators of other micro fauna with high confidence without the use of a microscope?
Is the imo 3 and 4 video out yet? I haven't been able to find it anywhere
That was brilliant! Thank you 🌟
Cheers, appreciate it 😊
Really interesting video! I live near the coast in Cornwall and I was wondering if I can use the same method with seaweed?
Humus near the coast is the best. You can use the mix of rice, boiled potato, barlet rice, seawater, crabshell. Crabshell is important, microorganisms that decompose crab shells are important for directly attacking spoilage bacteria. Luckily these microbes abound near the sea 🎉
Can imo 2 be combine with fpj during the fermentation? Can i add LABS in after so i can have an all in one?
Hi. Nice vid. Thank you for this info. just want to ask, how many days to ferment the imo2 before it can be used?
Thank you! Just 7 days before using
Is the bacteria collected the same as the bacteria found in a Winogradsky Column? For instance, would the red in the sample you harvested be the same as red photosynthetic bacteria (or purple non-sulfer bacteria)?
Hi, in Malaysia as the weather is hot, it takes only two days.
Do pumps hurt IMOs or is it ok to use manual pumps to spray IMOs all over the place?
Is IMO 2 enough for plants or should you make IMO 3? What's the differnce? Do you have a video on IMO 3 ?
I’m gonna try to hide a tiny box in my local area today. Hopefully I can hide it well or else it’ll be thrown away.
Can i just mix imo 2 with water at a dilution and spray on weeds to help stop future germination of weeds?
I wonder though about inland areas with few fish. Makes sense Korea uses fish as they have tons of it. I live in Utah. I could get a couple ton worth of dead deer roadkill haha. Is it possible to use actual waste meat from deer or beef or large animals and swap out the fish? I get you’d need more brown sugar or it’d take longer but something I wondered about.
Did you say after your 1 L water and 1 tablespoon mixture, you add that to even more water before you put on your plants?
Hi, Alessandro! Nice vid! I have a question about it though. Do IMOs have any effects if my plants already grow directly in the ground (what I’m saying is that they are not planted on an urban garden but rather in my homestead). I mean, native microorganisms are already living in the soil and I assume they are already strongly associated with my plants, however, this seems so fun to do that I want to try it out!
Hello! Yes, they will affect your plants but in a beneficial way. Basically, as you said the soil web in your homestead is already there. However, when you add indigenous microorganisms, you’ll reinforce the already present soil web and make it more active. Also, you’ll reinforce the symbiotic relationship between microorganisms and plants 😊
@@SpicyMoustache Nice! I’ll definitely try it out. Thanks a lot!
How is IMO2 stored long term
I’ve been watching your videos for awhile and decided to start growing some food from our food. Things are growing good except two things. Cantaloupe and watermelon. I’ve lost all my watermelon and all but one cantaloupe. I started more watermelons because I’m sure I overwatered the first plants. But other people are saying they are having problems with watermelons and melons as well. Can you maybe do a video on these two plants please? My peas are easy and I was able to enjoy one yesterday! The tomatoes are cherry and I have a bunch of groups of them but they seem to take forever to ripen. But the watermelon seems to look wilted when it’s in the sun so I would give it a good mist which killed them im sure. Same with the cantaloupe. I thought watermelon and melons liked a lot of sun? Help😢
I'm writing from the Philippines. Can I use IMO 2 to inoculate my biochar?
Have you tried the Korean cultures used for making Maekoli rice wine beer for culturing soil CFU's as well?
I’ve never tried that but it sounds really interesting! I’d love to know more about this!
@@SpicyMoustache Yes same cultures (yeast and bacterial) are used in other cultures as it were :) look up Korean Maekoli rice wine beer on youtube many videos on how to make it but try a bottle they are cheap like $2.50 for a Liter at Korean Grocers.
@@edchoi2428 thats awesome! Thank you so much for sharing this, I really appreciate it!
Did you say a 5 8 liter bucket? How much per gallon of water would we use
I’m just super curious, everything I’ve heard says you want to collect imo that is white and somewhat fluffy looking. If it has pink or blue, is this bad? My first collection is mostly white/ blue white with some pink streaks.
As long as it it mostly white and fluffy forming chunks of rice, I’d keep it! 😊
I should put rice in my garden too?
Thanks for the lovely video! Can you use raw honey instead of sugar?
No worries! Unfortunately, nope, you need to use as less refined sugar as possible 😊
Por favor traducción al español gracias bendiciones
I’ll upload a translation as soon as possible!
Will I get microorganisms from a pine forest?
Can I Use IMO1 by simply mix it in my living soil?
Hi My imo1 Collection was good but on day 4 of imo2 developed small patch of fungus is this imo 2 ok to use
Hello, I’d need to see it on a picture but generally speaking, fungal activity is a good sign :)
A question about the brown sugar, does it have to be organic? While yes, organic is best it's difficult to find in my area for some reason.
Yes, it’s much better to use it organic or jaggery sugar :)
I'm really trying to understand KNF .... I live in Phoenix AZ zone 9 B...... being desert the imo's or bacteria would be way different and basically non applicable??
You can still do it but it would be much different. Make sure to source them from an area near by and do not import them from anywhere else’s or they will die straight away due to the different climate
What prevents animal activity while you're collecting? Opposums, racoons, fox even dogs will eat rice left in a box.
