Re: DIY organic liquid fertilizer
How would you stop it going off stinking place out within a week or two ? I`m pretty sure they use parabens in the stuff bought off shelf to prolong its shelf life, but then again fuck knows tbh. I`m clueless with this stuff, but tis prolly summink to bare in mind hey.

Re: DIY organic liquid fertilizer
Fpj or fpe it man. Also look into jadam liquid fertiliser otherwise know as JLF.
@2-Scoops after about 2-3 weeks there should be no major smell unless making WCA and you leave lots of egg protein in the shells
Nothing I've made smell as bad as root stim yet

Re: DIY organic liquid fertilizer
I'm using some FPJ I made last year with nettles and mint leaves and sugar.
It smells like minty booze and I'm really tempted to have a session on it one sunny day with a slice of lemon.
My chilli and tom plants are happy enough with a splash of it in the feed.
PS... If this sleepdog I got ever wants to walk more than 100 yards down the lane, I'll be scrumping some seaweed (mostly bladderwrack) and making up some kind of grub too.

I've got FPJ 1 or 2 year old, smells lovely still. Use it on my living soils still. Worms are still alive

Re: DIY organic liquid fertilizer
Oh and @Greenfingers
Keep in a cool dark place, we got a floor in a pantry I use and it's perfect.
In fact, I really need to do an FPJ and a compost only grow, just to see what happens.
Chris T mentions you need to integrate all of KNF for it to work, but he means on a farm or ina veg patch outside.
Give it a go. @GMO will have some recipes? I got when I made mine somewhere on here.
Another thing I heard mentioned recently is LAB'S but with an added xtra, like super labs. Will have to go back through some podcasts and listen back so I can give it a go.

Sea water is a part of some of the KNF ingredients.
Depends though! Sea weed can be a very effective accumulator of heavy metals.

Super labs is made with kefir. You can also use kefir to extract cyana bacteria... I know that's not spelt right but I'm having a brain fart atmDIY.Rik wrote: ↑Tue May 24, 2022 12:13 pmOh and @Greenfingers
