Wow & no! Im 53 & smoke now more than ever! So much good stuff out there!
I literally described making bio char In the way of digging a hole and smothering… I was completely pooh-poohed on my idea on Friday night. My gut told me I was right. And now Scotty just confirmed it.
That's how most third world countries make their charcoal for cooking. Whoever the poo pooer is was wrong.
You can find a bunch of videos about making bio char on RUclips. It's a matter of getting it very hot without burning basically and it can be done lots of ways.
I it out in my wood working stove after I separate from the ash I give it a rinse and buffer it with cal-mag and a compost/worm tea brew let it dry out a little an toss it in my soil tube so its ready for use.
@@dmathis510 add some Recharge and worm castings to your mix to innoculate the char and it will help for sure. You want to soak up nutrients but also microbiology.
You can do what I do. Get a bag of Royal Oak lump charcoal. Put it in a bag and drive over it with your vehicle to break it up. Has to be 100% lump charcoal. Not Kingsford briquettes, match light ect.
Love watchin yall while watering and trimming...learn a lot, thank you for keeping on!!
lucky you I just chopped today
Im making my own biochar and wood/leaf ash for my compost and organic pots after January. Gotta get the burn permit to keep it legal. I hope that my likes and comments help. I put my 5 star review of Recharge on all the places I visit. I just went so far backwards this past year, i dont have any extra. So, I hope that the love is enough. Oh yeah, i use recharge and stocking up on Grow Dots too.
Love the show . Nothing like starting the day wit DGS , coffee , and cannabis ! God bless , and peace be yas .
Terra preta, bio-char, and hugelkulture all work to put carbons in the soil. Lots of different carbons for bacteria and fungus to live on to break down nutrients into plant usable nutrients. We actually grow more wood in the planted forest (cfa land) than what would grow naturally.
Key with biochar if a purchaser or even making it before using it in garden you must realize biochar retains and will take ur npk in. If pre-charged like coco than your fine or [recharge it urself.
Pre load the char before you add it to your soil mix. Soaking it with recharg in a bucket 🪣 let it drain and mix it in
Can charge is with your own urine if you want, or any fertilizer, compost tea, etc.
But yeah charge it.
@@NoNORADon911 Well, incidentally… I collect my urine in my 5 gallon bucket out in my shop that I put my leaves from pruning in. Then I dump it on my compost to try to keep it hot through the winter.
Put the lime in the coconut and mix it on up! Ha ha I can’t resist if someone says, put the something in the something
@@sunnyinbectopiad2g2c63 that is the mix for a drink that has been de carb with the lime juice
Lights are pretty intense on those ac infinity domes, but the do a stellar job! Ive been arranging our cuts around the outsides instead of tje middle of the tray where the lights are more focused, and then only keeping the lights at the first setting. Fantastic results, roots within 6-7 days 🤙👍
The Log becomes a gear to connect an additional drive wheel. Fogline genius!
Will be watching on the line at work
We do controlled burns here. The blue berries grow great in burned areas. Don't forget bio char adds pot ash great source potassium. The old method of making potassium carbonate (K2CO3) was by collecting or producing wood ash (the occupation of ash burners), leaching the ashes, and then evaporating the resulting solution in large iron pots, which left a white residue denominated "pot ash".
k is good in moderation, not as a huge imbalance in a garden bed like some have done.
@NoNORADon911 controlled burns keep the land and vegetable protection in check while encouraging the fodder break down to bio-availabe material.
@@daviddawson1718 I'm talking about people that take their fire pit ash and cover their 4x4' garden bed in it 3'' thick, huge (K) imbalance. Not talking about forest burns.
Considering how tight you all are with J. R . , I'm surprised you haven't brought up Grove Terp-loc bags for curing, storage and travel. I think they're great.
Love that show guys keep up the great work.
I make tender for fire starting by putting blue jeans in a canister with a nail hole and put it over fire until it stops smoking and let cool . If you try to open it before it cools it will catch fire soon as air hits it. The tender will hold an embedded ember for a long long time!
I shipped 4 rooted cuttings to a friend of ours & it took them at least 4 days. Only lost one & was amazed because of the cold weather.
I came from an “all drugs are evil” background. Got high for the first time, smoking Hawaiian with the girl next door in ‘78.
I use a pelletized and micronized product called HumiChar. It has worked very well out in the lawn with sandy soil. When exposed to water it instantly breaks down into an extremely fine texture.
Some say sequestering of nutrients is a problem, but all is needed is a little bit of time. The Micronized stuff is extremely quick. The texture of the product you get from BAS does take a little longer, but organic people using this technique will usually let their media cook a minimum of 3 to four weeks. That is plenty of time for an actively cooking tote to fully charge the char.
I'm re-amending my 20 gallon no-til pots today.. All the amendments are already mixed altogether. I'll lay down a little bit of bokashi on top of the chopped cover crop and then apply all the amendments. All that gets watered in with a little bit of playing compost tea with some soluble Great White. Cover crop will be planted a couple days later.
I'll probably plant in a month.
Love the show!!keep on keepn on
Exactly Banner! You can put a tote upside down over the dome & have an instant clone room!
Saw this guy on yt just putting two tin cans together and tossing it into the fireplace. Home made biocharlie. Easy as fugg
Walmart is now selling bags of Wakefield biochar/compost/mychoraizza mix for 5.97 a bag locally. Great stuff, just mixed it into my living soil recipe and the stuff looks amazing
I use that myself !
Check 'char cloth', and you can cook some up easy! Any natural substance can be char. It becomes quite flammable like charcoal minus the accelerants.
Hey guys I just wanted to tell you all a Merry Christmas, I enjoy your show, and have a great day
U2 Penn 🤘😁👍
I use as directed by BAS & Im on my 7th run of amended Coots mix. & Im kind of blown away❤
OHIO is In The House 🎉🎉🎉
What's up! I'm in Cincinnati where you at?? Glad they paused changes to 2 back to normal for now... Take it easy growmie
Great Saturday show. Safe travels Scotty.
Sup DGC grambo my man cheers thanks guys keep it coming much love from WestVirginia...
It’s super easy to setup a photobioreactor to reclaim your fertilizer runoff and keep from putting all those salts into the water table. Clear tote, air stone/pump, spirulina culture(other algae’s work too spirulinas just got food uses, there are even companies that will buy your algae for biofuel production) leave in the sun
Good bio char is kinda pricey but I only add 2-3% of the soil volume (I also use compost liberally), and it seems to last a long time.
So I smoke a lot of meat, on a gravity feed smoker, the fuel is charcoal and hard wood and I have thrown my ash with chunks of un burnt charcoal in my garden for years and it has done good. But I might just keep a bucket handy and use it in my basement garden as well
You can make it using a metal 5 gallon bucket poke a hole in it fill it with wood put the lid on and set it in a camp fire with hole pointing up
Had a Marijuana freak out on a bus, coming home on leave from the ARMY. Met a guy at the terminal in Killeen. We stopped at a Mcdonald’s somewhere in Arizona. The guy, who was sitting in the back, got out and a circle of co-riders surrounded him. He sparks up a joint behind the back of the bus, winking, and telling us it’s “Dusted”.
What followed was a full-on bad acid trip. The busses’ lights reflecting off of the passing barren hills resembled flames. It seemed as though the bus was going down, faster and faster. I looked across the isle and saw 2 Mexican women dressed in black praying. I hallucinated a Demon sitting across from the driver, telling him to go faster. I felt as though I was sweating blood and thought that perhaps I had died. A cacougheny of insane laughter came from the back of the bus all the while, not unlike a group of hyena. Don’t remember much more.” Dused “ment Angel-dusted, I found out later.
Was gonna say, weed don't do that.
Wow sounds like a blast! 😂
I've gotten more respect in life by saying i don't know what that word means or i don't know what that is compared to trying to fake my way through it. Don't be afraid to ask questions, you may learn something
Thanks guys. Being an organic grower is so much more labor intensive than other forms of growing. Often times for less fruit or ugly apples. I use fire pit ash in my outdoor grows. Along with hugelkulture. Down by the fen I dig down to water table 2-3 feet. I dumps some black lake sand sulfur rich or gypsum in bottom of hole. That anaerobic bacteria that have like skunk smell or burnt rubber smell. Bacteria stink. Fish carcass or other rotting protein. Anything that shouldn't go in worm bed. Old school guerrilla grows used to grow by water. Close enough so they didn't have to water. This is what got me thinking some strains like bacterial dominated soil. I could brew tea but don't have time or means. Plus my plants aren't tended. I fill rest of hole with super soil. Some sweet skunks don't like having a wet tap root. Remember clones don't grow tap roots. Which can be useful. My other 2 areas I need to make funnel shaped holes for water. It's dry on the slopes and ridge. So bottoms of those holes get rotten wood. The more fungus and sponge like the better. That punky type wood. Piss on it or through some hot crap on it. Or through green carbons on it. They usually have nitrogen. That wood will suck nitrogen up before releasing it. Wood chips do the same so you should pre charge them like bio char. I grow for smell. I also grow 15 kinds of berrries, cherries, apples, astronomy domine sweet corn, purple pole beans, leeks, and asparagus. Plus collect maple syrup and honey. Cold ask Michigan is the 2nd most agricultural diverse state. Planting slopes with 10 different kinds of auto's and ultimate purple fast photos. To see what grows best. Cheap happy bird seeds.
Ash is not char.
If you use an electric smoker those chips that are left are perfect crystalline char that you can soak and inoculate
Just a side note, you do want to charge that biochar before amending with it. Other than microbes from the ground (your local IMO), you can use L.A.B., collected I.M.O.’s or J.M.S. to add microbes and help charge your biochar.
Since you mentioned mortuaries. I had to do an electrical repair under a sink in an embalming room with a dead old lady on the slab 5 feet behind me. Her stringy, grey hair was hanging off the table and her head looked like the Crypt Keeper. It was creepy!😮
I made my own charcoal for many years ,, carbonization occurs when any thing that was once living and i mean anything is heated with high temps and allowed to cool in an oxygen free environment
I ship fish through the mail. I use heat packs and cold packs,
depending on the weather.
You can also smother or quench. I quench and bury to create porosity in solid clay.
What does it mean to quench ?
@@ulrichenevoldsen8371 lower temperature by pouring water on it
My potting mix been 20% biochar for the past 5 years feeding salts too. I don’t make my own though, maybe if had some land out in the country.
may your trees grow to their full potential
Yea that excavator Is special built to work at extreme angles if you look there’s hydraulics attached to the frame of the tracks to basically level the machine out while tracks stay on hill its badass
If you want to use charcoal and charge it with microbes you can start with the natural lump coal. And you can light it with a heat gun without any gas or anything else combustible if you want to burn the coal.
Hey growmies just thought to send a shout out to the DGC happy new year.
I always used tol get the char coal from my fire place i just run in through fly screan to get rid of ash
Love the knowledge I am getting. LETS OVER GROW THE PLANET !!!
Good morning from the 352 area
👀 I know that area code ha
$36 for some Charcoal, think I'll just make a fire, and bonus the white ash contains sulphate of potash, good to sprinkle in when it's bud time 👍🇦🇺
Hey Scotty could you make a 4 bucket real bucket set all fed by a fifth bucket. If I buy two sets I'll have two different sets with an extra bucket
So what about mixing it with Coco and running salts but using recharge and photo plus?
I wonder if you could use biochar in the refillable carbon filters and get the same results.
I been using bio char for a long long time only certain varieties love it seems iv had some go pretty yellow on me not exactly sure must be genetics or the microbes possibly
Fracking Scotty the scientific master!!
Haven't done nitrous since like 98 dose that mean I'm getting old? LoL update Ohio is back to exactly what we voted on with issue2 very good super happy. Great show I'm always learning something and it always makes my cannabis better or healthier so thanks for all the tips love the show
I been toking since the summer of 68...some breaks...however, I am smoking more today, impart because of legalization, than in my earlier years.
What's up dig the show fam
Amazon has vacuum sealers for big mouth mason jars
Biochar improved every aspect of my plants in Cocoa
Now you know why they burn the sugarcane fields ! Crush up kingsford BBQ bricketts ?
Shout out dgc from Maryland
Regarding the truck log video, adding the log make BOTH wheels turn instead of just the rear giving it the needed traction to get unstuck.
How would you go about harvesting my horizon from the ground
Love to take my family of stoners to Costa Rica 100% Would love to hang with you there too Scotty❤. I”ll send the package 😂
Another great show guys! I learned more about Biochar and I'm going try it. Thanks! Have a great weekend!
silicate cat litter , with pop and pee or clean , one cat can fertilise a lot of plants
You can make Charcoal with 2 X Baked beans cans if you have to 👍🇦🇺
@10:18 you could take thay 1 step further the gas thay comes off the bio mass can be flammable and used as fuel source.
@12:30 the show that 😅
Thats pretty much how i been making biochar fertilizer for 30 yrs now
Bring it i.need it
My brother had the to paranoid to smoke any more in his 30s but now he's ready to retire I can't slow him down
It’s locking the hubs!😂
Biochar = Black Gold! A vital component of any good organic soil media!
I have a good intuition. I need to quit discounting it. I come from a long line of farmers and I need to remember that when I’m listening to anything.
Where does carbon go if you burn it? No, it does not become ash - it combines with O2 and returns to the atmosphere as CO2, Carbon Dioxide.
I think the reason why your weed is causing anxiety is cuz we nowadays is a very high percentage THC compared to back in the days , im a flavor hunter , THC levals i can care less... i also get anxiety for weed these days.
Once my carbon filter has used it life up. Can you use the charcoal inside it as biochar?
It’s all American soil. Costa rica is in central america
Before you Recharge, you must Charge.
this is what they used in the amazons to make the soil fertile
I always carried internally. Even around the farm here. Better safe than sorry.
Are biosolids really solid
USPS won't bother because its too much of a hassle for them to get a warrant for small shit. Just don't sends pounds!
💚💚💚
Can we get dude a new cam so he's not 10fps? We need that 30fps dude nipple slip LOL. Thank you DGC!
Compost, Charcoal, and worm casting, and worm piss as fertz = HAF
Saludos amigos 🇲🇽🌱🧬✌️
The rear wheel grabs the log, relieving friction while slightly climbing out of the hole.
And who are these people with techno Viking?
I commented on the latest marujuana Monday about missing seeing Remo's garbage can tree farm. He said hes about to start documenting the grow again. Probably needs to be on a separate channel though
Biochar should be charged with compost tea before use, most good brands do
I agree Snoop Dogg has really let me down
We should make an event here in Mexico I can get you a place to make it happen
What I've learned that will make your microbes go crazy is micro shredded cardboard in your soil and topped on top 🤫
All my posts also have colonies of red wiggles in them ..
Good discussion. Hey look into using LAB in our home grows! And using stuff in our kitchens to make nutrients. Very interesting topic that weed growers haven,t discussed. We spend money on bio boosters and recharge when stuff from our kitchens could be a by product of just living.
High growmies
I can't get high on edibles. taken up to 150. I'm afraid to try and find out hoqw much itll take and get TOOOOO high
I gotta go to the submarine I guess. Because I get super seasick. Fuck too bad choices. How do you pick one?
your talking about Cheri Sicard
about half my stoner buddies quit in their 30's. its a thing.
I use my used charcoal from air filters and fish tanks in my compost bins as bio-char. I get multiple uses that way.
Scotty your talking about biochar like your on the late show
