Iā€™m telling you, Iā€™m about to be a canna JLF evangelist! That shit is worth its weight in gold, and we can make it after every defol, and every harvest!
Some of the best fertilizer Iā€™ve ever used FR.

So you guys just using mostly cannabis leaves for your ferment juice? Do you dilute to a 10:1 or 20:1 ratio of water to fermented tea concentrate?

4 Likes

Yeah @ElGalloBlanco , mine is just H2O, canna leaf and some popcorn bud, salt and some active leaf mold. Let it sit for about 4 months so far.
I am using around 2oz per gallon currently, around 1:60 but I may increase that as it ages a bit more and depending what the plants tell me.

Iā€™m using leaves, wet trim, some larf, and whatever stalks and stems are left after harvest. Dechlorinated water, and a fistful of leaf mold or compost, whatever I have on hand
I go 4 oz. per gallon after itā€™s aged for a few months.
@BeagleZ way is betterā€¦ before 6 months itā€™s a dice roll whether plants will love it, or get fried.

Nice, thank you both! Iā€™ve made ā€œstinky (stinging) nettle teaā€ before with just water and stinging nettle, let ferment for a couple weeks, then dilute it down to water or foliar, didnā€™t use salt or compost/leaf mold though. Donā€™t remember how the plants responded to it or not but I guess I didnā€™t fry them, I wouldā€™ve remembered that, haha. Comfrey or borage would be nice options as well if available.

Wait til you start top dressing with nettle tea pulp!

I mean tea for drinking, I have some nettle tea every day and dump the pulp on my soil.
Thereā€™s this small pot in my garden and the plants in it have been struggling quite a bit, but then I started dumping nettle tea pulp in it every day and I briefly got a nice white mold and then a bunch of sprouts started popping up!

Nettle is extremely good fertilization!

In fact Iā€™m gonna make a thread about it.

My comfrey plants are in full flower at the moment, gonna try my hand at a ferment later in the year when they get a little bigger but I had no idea how pretty flowering comfrey is, Iā€™m considering sowing some more of it around the property in the wooded areas just to have more of it around. @BeagleZ @Rogue do you think I could try just chopping the leaves up and top dressing the pots and see some benefit?

Theyā€™re pretty right! You can green mulch with comfrey. It will liquify pretty quickly. Many orchards will just grow it as a companion and mulch the leaves around the fruit trees for that micronutrient magic.

You will get more seasonal harvests as the plants get more established.

Ofcourse!

I think it has more benefits than tea because youā€™re adding the fibers as well as many minerals, itā€™s richer and you canā€™t really overdo it as it decomposes slowly and also acts as a moisture barrier.

Mulch is magic!

My number one rule is: never leave any soil bare, ever!

Thatā€™s exactly what I got going on around my fruit trees with Russian bocking 14 comfrey specifically. Hey @LegsMahoney, just be cautious on how much you want that comfrey to reseed itself as it can spread pretty damn well and can be quite invasive. The Russian bocking 14 type is sterile so it doesnā€™t spread by seed but through cuttings of its roots, however, once you plant it, it can be all but impossible to remove so you need to be sure of its location as it will likely be there for the long haul.
