Labs (Lactic acid bacteria serum)

[GroBuddy]

How many of yall use fermentation? Just ran across this recently. Seems like a fairly simple, cheap way to create and provide benefits to plants and soil by using items around you. You can buy labs I wanted to do this for free basically from scratch. I've soaked rice in water for 3 days it smelled sweet, not as sweet as mash but smelled a day or so from going sour. I strained that then added it to milk at a 1:10 ratio. Once this is complete I'll syphon the bottom liquid then pour the curds in compost pile or worm bin. I'll use the liquid in a 5 gallon bucket with dechlorinated tap water molasses and yard waste probably some cannabis trimmings. That will be able to be used weekly at 1oz to 1 gallon of water making like 130 gallons. Can be used up to 4oz to a gallon of water biweekly or every 3 weeks. Also can use as a foliar spray at 1oz per gallon

The links are part one and two of the fermentation videos that turned me onto this method

Have you tried it yet?

Still culturing the milk and rice water. That takes around a week. Then itll take another week or two to ferment. I suppose just going off instructions never tried this before

Works well found out I didn't need that entire jar of labs for this fermentation. Why theres that residue on top. Added residue to worm bin and composting pile. I've used the liquid 2ce at a ounce per gallon once a week. Plants didn't show any bad reaction. Cant speak on the benefits yet besides being basically free. Fyi smells of high heaven, I dont mind a barn smell it smells like that x10

Haven't used as a foliar spray yet all plants are in flowering stage. Next time....
