I did this as well and the the white “mycelium” or whatever you want to call it is amazing. Shows how awesome living soil is and how much life blooms with it! Not sure the white bloom is actually mycelium but for a lack of a better description I just call it that

I use a seed meal (neem, barely, corn, beans, dill) with kelp meal, seabird guano, crab meal and rock dust for a fertilizer. I have really decent results.

I have been using neem/karanja cake & mustard seed meal from watching this channel. I have had ZERO issues with gnats and have taken down my yellow traps because the are a non-issue, also helps using rice hulls as a mulch. I mix into soil at about a tablesppon per 1.5 cu ft of soil. and at a top dress of half a teaspoon per pot does the trick, go lightly.Thanks a bunch, I keep preeching it but not everyone listens.

"ZERO" issues with gnats? Zero? Seriously good for you. But in every "other" garden fungus gnats proliferate in spring and the fall. Because that's what they do if your soil is alive with the biology your plants need for optimal health. Mark your calendar. Gnats in March-April, October-November. Keep the traps during these times. There is no magic bullet. Nature finds a way. And so do salespeople trying to separate you from your provision. Jeromy is top notch but he still needs to make money in this hustle and sells a lot of widgets with "hopeful" results. No guarantees remember?

Much love from Germany BAS crew

I have been using the AutoPot Ez2Go system with clay pebbles in the bottom of the pots for years. I wanted to give the Tray2Grow system a try and eliminate the clay pebbles in the bottom of the pots. I’m growing in 3x3 tents. 4x4 tents are what the Tray2Grow system is designed to fit in. So left with no other options, I built my own DIY Tray2Grow system using some plant risers & custom cut the AutoPot Capillary Matting & Root Control Sheet to fit. Works Great❗👍✌

Much love❤ Jeremy. Really appreciate these videos.

This is a new one @buildasoil, Jeremy one of my flowers is oozing a viscous golden/clear resin that tastes like sweet honey with fruity floral notes. Is this nectar like bees and hummingbirds eat? I've grown so many plants for decades and never seen this. I could spread it on buttered toast it was so good. Update: This is called Guttation and is normal in many plants.

You show us how to make that difference. I spend the extra cash sometimes because we make a difference. Life is good with your soil living!

Question for next Q&A... I bought a bigger bag of Build a flower than I'll need for a year or so. Growing in 2 Earthboxes. What is the best way to keep it long term? Should I water it every now and then? Thanks for all your devotion to the plant and fans.

The best thing you can put in your humidifier is 3% hydrogen it keeps the gnats down and a lot of other

Great Q&A! Thanks!

I made a Horse trough into an Earth Box but the gutter is the fill tube. There is a permeable pipe at the end of the gutter inside the trough. Water but not soil passes in and out. When the water lever reaches 5" it hits the pipe again but drains out into a French drain away from the house. you have to cut a 4" D howl through medal but its not that hard. the more you can sink it the more stable in temp it will be. you want the whole thing as low as possible. -The frost line varies but being close to the equator its not that deep. the temp stays around 65.- so we abuse that. The dream is to draw air from the surface and use solar fans to pump it through an underground tunnel and back to us. This would turn hot air cold or cold air hot. This combined with the suns path through the sky depending on where you are. You could make a greenhouse that harvests rain water/feeds and vents/Air Condition its self. you have to make a system of voids that hold water and AIR but keep out soil. More permeable 4 inch corrugated tubes, cut to fit like a Jinga puzzle one layer with the drain. 3rd season and it works. Build a Soil cover crop is in front of it. I did the same thing with 1 big circular live stock container. Imagine a horse tough but spin it around from one end. it just catches rain water, holds on to it and sheds it when it gets too much. its the same SIP sub-irrigated planter idea from 5 gal buckets to 800 gal live stock troughs haven't touched it and I have a garden as well as any tree seedling I find goes in there. I see them come back and they are my honey badgers

thank you so much fors info

Greetings from Florida! I'm so glad I came across your video series--its inspired me to give organic a try and its been such an educational experience. Thank you for sharing your wisdom.

Love the FAQs and all your grows. My property is surrounded by a National Forest in Northern Alabama.

My lung room is the garage, so isolation is not practical. Thanks, Steve

Anybody here have any experience with water kefier? It's reusable and good for your gut health too so depending on how you prepare it you could save some for you and give some to the plants.

Jeremy, I am on my first grow with living soil and I am loving it. Im about 6 weeks away from harvest and then I will be traveling for a couple of months and won't grow anything until about September of this year. What is the best way to store my living soil while Im not growing anything in it?

I would love to hear your opinion on compost teas, coot says they’re worthless and have no scientific backing showing they have any benefits, if anything he argues that there’s scientific evidence that shows that they aren’t beneficial, I would love to see you address this, teas are a pain to make and I personally feel that they provide minimal results, especially if you have a healthy ecosystem already going in your bed/container, so I’m curious do you think compost teas are worth all of the effort or do you think they’re a waste of time and energy that could be better spent elsewhere? And do you feel like you actually see a benefit from them? I’m really not sure that I have seen any difference in the past when I’ve used them

I look forward to a new video like the moat of us tht watch . This poat is coming from a positive place so this is all luv !!! Im having a hard time putting into words , but here goes . I decided to just ask a question then wht i was originally gonna say . Jeremy, wht are ur thoughts on cannabis cultivars that exhibit multiple cannabinoid ratios of multiple cannabinoids, and have u experienced any tht have high terpine levels and good flavor ?! Lets look at a profile hypothetically. 20% thc , 3% cbd , 2% cbg , and 4% cbn . And 4% terps . I think with time and dedication, this is achievable through slection . I also think it would be so much more beneficial 2 all users a tru Entourage experience !!! More medicinal and even more stoney , im sure like most kno its not the budz tht say 29% thc tht make me feel the best !!!! I would luv to see some of these genetics explored on a future season !!! Thanks for ur time amd energy !!!

Jeremy with running high temps and high humidity in your grow tent how are you keeping from getting powdery mildew on the plants what steps are u taking to prevent it?

If sprouted seed meal is incredible. And the buildasoil sprouted seed meal is barley and corn and whatever else is in there. Would it be a good idea to make sprouted seed meal from mustard seeds? That way getting the benefits of the mustard and the enzymes of the sprouted seeds?

What are some of the current reads you picked up?

How often should i water in potassium silicate from build a soil? How long does it take to be available?

What percentage have you been targeting with the deep Ecowitt moisture meter?

Could you explain how to dry sprouted seeds? I make sprouted seed tea all the time but it would be nice to know how to make sprouted seed flour?

I have a question on vermicompost: is it necessary to add supplemental wormcompost or compost to a well established livingsoil bed with worms in it that is topdressed regularly?

If you accidentally add a little too much nitrogen to your organic grow, (smaller pots)) any way to offset it? To fix the soil the plant ? Foliar spray or amendment? Procedure to go through??

Any chance you would ever launch a store in Denver?

i feel like the Earth-Box gives the plants more access to water roots. it seems like the Tray To Grow just keeps the soil moist from the bottom up with the wicking mat, and therefore forcing the plants to uptake nutrient with the water it drinks. Am I wrong?

Do you put root wise in each 5 gallon pot instead of watering it in.

Is it a bad idea to just scoop out from the worm bin without screening?

Really would like to use root wise, but dang the $$$! I using 500 gallons per watering. What would be cost effective way to access the biology?

with blumats you can water once a week by hand to administer feed/teas and the plants will not skip a beat. if you have the pump kit you can also drop your psi by half the day before you feed if you’re really worried about overwatering.
