    I surely can’t imagine that I believe is true there are some classical artist today that are rock stars Yo-Yo Ma and others not that come to mind immediately though. Beethoven I guess Eno is a classical I just let me see what I can find to go with my picture of the new bud

    Ya, is pretty big! I do plan to use it for my veggies to though, 12x20' greenhouse that is food crops besides my state plant count of 12 that I can have hear, working on a small outdoor vegetable plot to, this summer.
    That new growth is looking much better!

    Can you imagine if Beethoven had been born later in history? Might have been the worlds biggest rock star instead of composer, can just imagine Beethoven rockin out with the wild hair and crazy eyes, like Plant or Page, smokin a dubby, heading up the counterculture!!

    Hundred gallons of compost that’s pretty big maybe you should do a combination worm bin compost pile anyway my friend Steve that designed that vortex tea brewer he’s help me out a bit sending me some amendments and bio dynamic formulas that he has created and I’m going to be offering them up and helping with sharing his vortex designs and getting his bio dynamic formulas to reach people in our end of agriculture. Bio dynamics have tended to be restricted to farming for food and self contained systems that have livestock. If you need any help let me know he has designed 1000 gallon tea brew systems with tractor tea bags and water pressure steeping. He’s on the South Fork of Long Island where the vineyards are where it used to be potato fields.

    Only 24 hours later and the worms I got yesterday have made a difference I put a small handful of worms with some castings inthe top of each “soup container” turned off the lights for 10 minutes while they dug underneath and they’re in there. Don’t know when I’ll see him again but plants look great. I took a 10 gallon Rubbermaid tote and drilled holes in the cover and on the side filled it up halfway with living organic soil and dumped 2 pounds of worms and castings on top of that plus I layered some lettuce and some oatmeal. Frank looks happy as a clam.

    Glad your plants are recovering!
    That's kinda how mine were looking early on, for the opposite reason, used up soil that I had not re-charged properly. Funny how opposite causes have similar outcomes. Plants are doing great now though, and yours will to!!

    Your thread gave me some ideas.
    Just ordered a 1750 GPH air pump, and 20lb. of earth worm castings, gonna turn my 100 gallon water tank into a compost tea bubbler! Will hopefully be using most of my own compost eventually, once I can start farming more wrigglers. Going to try and do the continous brew, like you posted in your thread. Keep it on the weak side, and feed the soil every time I water

Here’s two pictures to contrast what 30 days can do too four Blood Orange Seeds.

    OzBud yeah so I found out by watching the guy I love to hate Grow Boss, On YouTube. That if you take the pressure tank out of the system you can decrease your waste water to a one to one ratio. He makes his own that is meant for gardening not for drinking water although you can drink the water

    Tika A fact that has been suggested to me before and the first reason I put the cotton socks on rather than covering them with tape. I have seen footage and been told by Vader that it doesn’t really matter. Still better safe than sorry and I’ve kept the socks on . They also hold moisture and help keep the space humid under the T5 lights which really don’t get hot at all. I just got a nice 16 inch cheap rotating fan for for only 20 bucks. I’m gonna go and buy the rest of them. And thanks for coming by to say hello. 🌸
