They're back? Really?

We used them for a couple of purposes and a main one was to take that f*cking Columbian shake, remove the seeds and make 'oil' from the fines which you could thin out and with an airbrush you would spray 5 or 10 lb. packs with this oil thereby increasing sales by improving the aroma on the usual, typical crap Columbian that dominated weed sales in So-So-Cal.

10 lbs. out the door for $3,200.00 - cash. $4,500.00 on a 2-week front.

The 'little people' loved it because a lid was only $50.00 or so. Plenty of money left over to buy a gram of decent flake and hit the discos - "I love the nightlife, I love to boogie"

May you live in weird times....

Thankfully it was only a few short years when that scene was replaced by real music from bands like Killer Pussy and their famous Teenage Enema Nurses in Bondage

Must have left a chapter out
In school and nursing classes.
They never taught me all about
Those tubes and lubes and asses.
Teenage enema nurses

They told me stick the nozzle in
There's really nothing to it
It's not a very pretty job
But someone's got to do it.
Teenage enema nurse

Were all just teenage enema nurses in bondage

Teen job, mean job, not a very clean job
Poses it with hoses it ain't no bed of roses
There are no vacations just evacuations
Were all just teenage enema nurses in bondage

The work is shit the pay is low
I labor night and day
I'd quit but I'm so broke I know
I'll never find a way

Were all just teenage enema nurses in bondage

The Edge...there is no honest way to explain it because the only people who really know where it is are the ones who have gone over - Hunter S. Thompson

Yes, they get really big, like a shrub. They are everywhere too. Thanks I'm gonna look that up.

no problem. laurel has purple berries too and seeds very easily.
its used for hedging over here - so you dont get berries if you cut it.

I harvested one Comfrey plant about 10 days ago and it was over 4' tall. The second one was harvested last Sunday and it was the same height.

Two more are ready to harvest this weekend and I have a smaller plant from last year's planting that naturally is way behind. We lay the leaves on top of the raised beds, hit them with basalt rock dust, kelp, crab and neem meals and cover with thermal compost. In a very few days they're ready for planting.

Ya can't beat comfrey for soil building and it's free which is always nice.

Man you guys rock!

In the last few pages I thought I ethier stumbled into a baking forum, a brewing forum or just a bunch of barley heads getting all scientific. Lol.

Great info everyone.

Dr. Michael Amaranthus, president of Mycorrhizal Applications has posted this video from a lecture he presented which covers Phosphorus uptake pretty well.

Other videos from this company are available here including one from Jeff Lowenfels, author of Teaming With Microbes and Teaming With Nutrients

How are you using Stinging Nettles in your gardens? Are you using the leaves & branches alone or are you using the roots as well?

CC,

I use the Nettles allot like I use comfrey..

I make teas with the leaves/stem for soil drench or spray, I also harvest the whole plant right before/during bloom and add it to my compost piles. My worms also thoroughly enjoy the leftover tea waste. Any day now I am expecting UPS to deliver my JPI Biodynamically prepared Stinging Nettle as well as all the other BD compost preps/sprays.

I have seen plants almost instantly respond to applications of stinging nettle.

Amazing that these super accumulator plants (comfrey, nettle, borage, dandelion, chamomile, dock) grow wild all over the world, and offer medicine, food AND fertility for our hungrier garden allies.

great info on the simplified SST cc, I've been too lazy to get the sprouting up and running, hopefully this will put that issue to bed. spoke with my local brewer and he pretty much explained that the "diastatic malt" is ground up barley seeds with a very high concentration of enzymes readily available in powder form. I told him it was for my veggie garden and that I was attempting to make a tea of sorts with a ton of enzymes, he said that this was he stuff.

$11 for 3lbs
$135 for 50lbs

one last quick question: I can just add your recommended amount (forgot off the top of my head) to my watering can of; aloe, ful-power and agisil? mix it in really good and watch the magic?

Ful-Power - 1 oz. per gallon of water/tea

Agsil 16H - 35 grams to 8 oz. of water will get you pretty close to full-strength Dyna Gro Pro-TeKt. I mix it and keep it in a ketchup condiment dispenser - the squeeze bottle deal.

Use the roots alone to make a super fungicide - grate the roots, add to water and do the usual deal.

If you live in an area where PM is a constant threat this tea when used as the 'water' for neem or karanja oil will keep those problems at bay.

Seedlings in ROLS...planted in living soil along with all the soil inhabitants that eat them. Seeds sprouted anyway as they have done for thousands of years and are absolutely fine even though this isn't a custom made seedling mix.
If seeds sprout in it you're all good,if it's a well balanced and thoroughly composted mix they should regardless.

These are some Panama Red F2's from DM and some Guerrero seeds from the Mexican state of Guerrero circa 1980 that DM did a preservation with.
Gathered by a lady who did peace work in Central America who was heady and smart enough to bag and tag the seeds out of each sack she bought.

I will use the best Central American males to hit a very resinous and fat ass Mazar-I-Shariff landrace indica female ....... some TRUE hybrids are in the works~

thanks for the quick reply, neat bottle trick. I should have been a bit more specific, I wanted to find out if the "LMSST" (lazy man sprouted seed tea) consisting of diastatic malt is okay to add in at the end once my three staples have need mixed accordingly. are you using it in a separate application? every day or a few weeks?

apologize if you've posted it before, currently on the road and have a few pages to catch up on.
