Hey Overgrow family hope everyone is sufficiently stoned and off to a fine start today.
I came across some interesting info early before the sun was up and wanted to share it here on Overgrow.
Curious if anyone here is familiar with using yeasts during the transition to flower or if you are currently or in the past have used a product that has yeast in it to help increase growth during key stages I’m interested in hearing your input.
The company below touts some pretty impressive numbers for increasing flower weight at harvest compared to controls.
Heres a few pics of the page and a link if anyone has time for rabbit holes today.
Absolutely, I was throughly intrigued when I stumbled onto the page. When I have more free time available this evening I will be taking a deep dive on the subject and sharing my findings
There is yeast in EM1 and I’ve seen great results spraying the foliage and soil with this beneficial combination of microbes (yeast, photosynthetic bacteria, and lactic acid)
Now I usually just use lactobacillus since you can DIY at home … rice wash water, then add to to milk 1:10 water:milk, let sit for a few days on top of the fridge. Eat the curds or feed to a dog then use the serum under the cheese for application, 1:25 lacto:dechlorinated water or more.
This stuff here is some pretty good shit.Brewers yeast in the mix and alot of other good stuff.Really fast if you dont want to wait 24 hours to get a tea brewing.
I agree, was takin back a bit by the numbers they are claiming at harvest. Always cautious when it comes to the testing these companies have done to prove the products effectiveness.
That said im very interested in the use of yeast along with complex sugars and surfactants for the transition phase. Feel like it really wouldn’t take much to get things moving forward quickly.
Surfactants and saponins are a staple in my garden they really help the plants with certain stressors.
I like to use a 40% mono silic acid in the rez and typically will foliar with yucca early on before flower to help with dry back stress etc.
Ive used bread yiest before, didnt hurt, but cant say it made a difference either… for the price of yiest, id say go for it! I think i might still have some around…
I’m sure many of us have some old baking, nutritional or brewer’s yeast laying around in the panty somewhere. I certainly do. Instead of going straight to the trash/compost pile, why not feed the plants with it?
Okay over time I will be adding as much information as I can find around this topic.
Have dug up a few items to go over and will try to familiarize myself with the material as its posted.
I will try to focus on source material, alot of it will be dry but the devil’s in the details.
Have a vision in my head of building a library of sorts that we can use to find what strains work best in different geographical locations, as well as Improving different functions in the plant
As well as suppliers to source different strains from.
Been known to use spirulina and kombucha in the garden. Used yeast once but that was me trying to grow fungus and it failed. LABS and KNF ferments work well cause the plants respect the effort.
Ive been using yeast as an organic bloom boost for at least a decade now. It really is a nice flower boost with a couple other sugar sources. I just use dry active yeast from the grocery store. I also add raw sugar and molasses, as others have mentioned. In all honestly I just loved FloraNectar from GH, and figured out I could buy the ingredients a ton cheaper.
What next ? magic dust to sprinkle on plants for a 1 month harvest time from date of planting. (have some if anyone is interested - but I can’t tell you how I obtained it A[quote=“Adventuretime86, post:1, topic:173074, full:true”]
