Wow! This information is brilliant ❤️❤️. I have over 200 fruit trees on an acre in Florida and I don’t use any chemicals this is exactly what I have been looking for! I am so excited thank you so much for this incredible webinar. I am interested in learning lots more😊
As a pot grower, it is really interesting to hear what you guys in the berry industry are paying attention to. Lots of great info, but what really got my attention is the oxidation of the substrate. In my field we pay zero attention to oxidation other than the basic don't overwater and don't let it dry back too far. Never really considered what element available at which Oxigen level, and for that, I appreciate you
Weed nerds are into this stuff amigo. FYI - a soil aggregate more than 12mm dia can lose its o2 in its center, low o2 can double a plant metabolism. I got charts on both. Different microbes function in different o2 conditions too, bad ones are mostly anaerobic.
Hi john its always been a great knowledge listing to your webinar so much information, We just have one request and hopefully you can make a presentation on this. " can you create a webinar HOW WILL ONE START A FARM, FROM A ACQURING THE AND PREPARING THE SOIL AND PLANTING. With REGENERATIVE IN MIND, ZERO TILLING ETC.
Been doing a lot of research on how to best fertilize and care for blueberries. It seems as though these methods could definitely be used on a very small market garden sized berry patch. 15 or so bushes. The cost for the products they recommend on their site totals out to less than 300 dollars, I might have to try and recreate the results shown off on the channel.
They are really the same. Strawberries need to build large reserves of calcium, amino acids, and potassium in the crown, so they can build large berries quickly in the spring.
Very good Video I like it a lot. Is all what you were explaining are applicable also for southern highbush like buds uniformity and harvest window condensation ? Thank you
John, There is some really great research you have covered on endophytes/rhizophagy that is being applied (everywhere), but especially on orchards/vineyards. The idea is that these long rooted perennials are able to recruit diverse endophytes from mixed cover in the inter rows. Do you believe that blueberries have a similar capacity to benefit from diverse ground cover in rows, or are their root systems too shallow to have this effect?
A so valuable videa, big thanks to John for sharing openly so much 💘. Think EM fermentation, JADAM fermentation juice, bokashi. Contains lot’s of amino & organic acids, Molasses contain lot’s of iron.. Humic acids, rock powders as Ca supplements (foliar too) Some boric acid, manganese sulfate, algaes juice and rock on baby 🔥
With AEA they are able to increase fruit size along with increased nutrient density, so the taste is better than other large-sized fruit grown with conventional methods.
I have a problem with my blueberry plants... How do you explain that the leaves have just became something purple or reddish color.....Is that phosporious or potasium DEFICIENCY? It seems like they want to get into to speel (dormacy) but but not all of the plants... It´s quite strange ... I have bought them ...this year precisely... I have BILOXI, LEGACY, EMERALD (they show those symptoms), VENTURA VARIETIES... Some data: Here in PERU...In this time of year , we are in winter and It´s cold but different , strange, unusual way. and measure and regulate the solution pH with phmeter BETWEEN 4.8 - 5.5 MAXIMUM... I give them a acid organic solution that i made from wasted things like descomposed and macerated fruits and vegetables from 2 years ( banana , eggs orange, and so) and rested fish and other things but all of them, are organic fertilizers...and I have given too ..phosporuos acid to regulate thta pH... In spite of that , the leaves show that color up,... why do think about IT, Temperture or pH? Could you give some advices about that since your expertise? IN FACT, we are not IN SPRING yet....so I am surpressing about that color..they grow slowly maybe for cold climate (min TºC 14 15 16 ºC) or maybe the deficiency symptons are Normal due to the slowly metabolism,..isn´t? because I regulate the pH, and feed them with Fosforic acid plus Nutrition solution...thank you again for that.. thank you very much Best RUBEN J.

Hi Ruben, thanks for your great question. Generally, that purple/reddish color you are seeing is an indicator of phosphorous deficiency. Good luck with your blueberries! - The AEA Team
Carbonates and bicarbonates are not oxidizing agents. Carbon monoxide or elemental carbon would be their reduced form if they functioned as oxidizing agents. Sulfuric acid is a strong oxidizing agent and one of it's reduced form is sulfites (sulfur 2) or it can be reduced to elemental sulfur or to sulfides. You need a different working hypothesis.
A business park close to my home Near Santa Rosa Ca has planted about 500 4ft plants of Patriot, B.J. (??) and O'Neil and prob more. Also they added 2 bee hives. All for the public's health...although I just overdosed ) lots of fruit on many plants already on June 25, so its all good. Sadly the fellow that did all this work had the root balls elevated way too high/ and dry with chicken wire baskets as we have gofers galore . Then came a heatwave or two and about 100 look dead, dry and brown all over. Many have tiny dried blu berries on them. although most small tips are still green inside when cut . They added more soil and irrigate a lot lately. This planting was approx.. early May this year. I took about 30 small fresh young slips today so will see if I can get some growing. I like the "we don't care about growing an average crop" comment ME TOO if your gonna use water be productive as possible. This is great info thanks a million. Thats how many berries we will soon have. My tummy feels a little "reduced" right about now.......must have eaten 200 berries for breakfast
I am so excited for this! I have blueberries I have been wanting to dial in for a few years now! I know AEA will lead me straight to victory!

As usual John always up to mark
Thanks
Thanks Ashwin! John will be on here answering questions sometime this week, regarding your other comment. Have a great day!

Hi John, you mentioned how some growers are using vinegar with exceptional results. How often and how much vinegar are they applying?
With a pH meter, a rH meter and some brain’s juice
John can you please share in depth details on increasing female flowers and uniform size in watermelon crop

Can you do webinar on growing larger and firmer strawberries? I really loved learning about blue berries!
They are really the same. Strawberries need to build large reserves of calcium, amino acids, and potassium in the crown, so they can build large berries quickly in the spring.
Fantastic info! Thank you
Thanks for the info. Does the same principles hold for evergreen southern highbush blueberries?
Great information God bless u

John,
There is some really great research you have covered on endophytes/rhizophagy that is being applied (everywhere), but especially on orchards/vineyards. The idea is that these long rooted perennials are able to recruit diverse endophytes from mixed cover in the inter rows. Do you believe that blueberries have a similar capacity to benefit from diverse ground cover in rows, or are their root systems too shallow to have this effect?
Blueberries are known for their very fine roots plugged with mushrooms
A so valuable videa, big thanks to John for sharing openly so much 💘.
Think EM fermentation, JADAM fermentation juice, bokashi.
Contains lot’s of amino & organic acids,
Molasses contain lot’s of iron..
Humic acids, rock powders as Ca supplements (foliar too)
Some boric acid, manganese sulfate, algaes juice and rock on baby 🔥
Is this the same for rabbit eye blueberry Varieties
I like your vidio, fai zal vlog support your yt chanel
is that phosphoric acid replaced with the sulfuric acid? At least warm season?
Nice but I think overall I prefer medium or on the smaller side anyway, blueberries to the bigger ones.
With AEA they are able to increase fruit size along with increased nutrient density, so the taste is better than other large-sized fruit grown with conventional methods.
This is great thank you :)
You're very welcome! Thank you, William Kreth!

Should one use anaerobic compost on blue berries?
Bokashi power man !

i have a blueberry plant that i bought last year
How is it possible to have anaerobic and aerobic organisms at the same time? Doesn't one die in the environment the other survives?
*facultative
Just means they can technically survive in both conditions. They have the faculties to survive in both aerobic and anaerobic conditions
They form biofilms so anaerobics are peotected, it’s everywhere in living organisms
How do you limit your biology to the facultative bacteria?
By a facultative brain
👍
Let’s talk sometime soon...
Looking for something to help with lowering the ph for my rabbiteye blueberry bushes
Ok restart the presentation, you had sleep.
I would feed coffee grounds to worms for nitrogen and sterilized and pulverized egg shells for calcium.
Egg shells are mainly Calcium Carbonate CaCO3
