    I love making LAB! You can cover your jar while it sits, with a paper towel and a rubberband. Wait for it to smell sweet slightly sour like cheese. While the weather is warm outside I let my jar sit outside in the shade. So it's warm but no direct sunlight and it takes about 2 days. Thank for sharing this!! Lab should be applied at least once or twice during a grow season💞✌

    1 year later, I’ve been watching a few videos on this lactic acid. I have a 12.5 year old cat with thyroidism and loosing weight fast. She’s on medication called Vidalta 10mg tablet daily. She’s got diarrhoea consistently and m at the verge of changing medication giving it 3 weeks from today. For her to change medication, she will have to be weaned off the medication for a few weeks I think I am not sure.. So is it alright to give her the water added to her food atm M planning to make this by the weekend or next week Re: Plants Got slugs issues, would this make the leaves more delicious for them?

    I just wanted to let everyone know that I successfully made LAB using milk powder. It must be full cream milk powder, but it works a treat. This may be useful for anyone who is into dried food storage for prep. I use the cheese in a vegetarian Shepards pie, using lentils, onion, celery, soy sauce and the cheese in the filling. Top with potato mash and its delicious!

I didn't wait for it to ferment separately, just added it to my weeds and water. Two days later, the whole thing started bubbling, it literally looked alive (still does).

    Thanks for sharing how to separate milk using rice water and typical store-bought milk to give people more opportunity to introduce probiotic, homemade food to their diet. This is what I do with raw milk by letting it sit on the counter, adding nothing. I don't press the curds but strain until firm. I like to add blueberries or pineapple and shredded coconut to it. The curds last for months in my fridge and the whey lasts about 6 months. I use the whey when I ferment cucumbers, kraut, beet kvass, lemonade, etc. I want to try it on my garden now!

    This is how they make curd in India! It is cheap, healthy, and delicious (or was - it is now 40 years since I spent 6 months there!) Refrigeration was not common in rural areas, so having a way to extend the shelf life of milk was a good thing. And worth keeping in mind, if we lose access to refrigeration at some point.

    Keep the LABS sealed in the fridge. Use it as the mother brew, mixing some with Molasses and water to propagate some a while before you actually want to use it and put the remaining mother brew back in the fridge. Should last for months and months in that condition. Disclaimer: heard this from The Weedy Gardener, but I'm only in the process of making my first batch, so can't confirm from practical experience yet.

    @Garden Like a Viking Hey brother! You got another knockout video here. I envy your travels and life experiences you've mentioned in previous videos. Also, I greatly appreciate you taking the time to share your wealth of knowledge with us. I believe this is exactly how our Creator intended us to live, clean and naturally; absent from the corruption and machinations of corporatism and greed that's being forced on our food supply and so many other areas of our lives. I frequently tell people that even with just a small garden bed you can grow so many things that will bring life to you and your home as well as cut your food costs. I'm kinda awestruck that you did a video using rice water. The reason is because I've been a cook for years and I usually soak the rice and strain it/clean it in hopes of removing the starchy film and dust. And here you come along showing a use for it! 🤣 Now I'm gonna want to do this and use it all the time. I also LOVE cheese and hope to try it out as well. I did have a question about your methods of use for the serum. Do you use it together, mixed or at the same time, with the fish emulsion? Or do you separate their usage? How about maybe a scheduled rotation? For example, emulsion one week and serum the following or maybe emulsion on Monday and serum on Thursday? Would these methods be best used before or after a rain? Times of day? Etc. I'm no expert gardener but I think I have enough experience and knowledge to get by. However I always get mixed reviews on those questions and I think a detailed tutorial using your methods and products would be excellent reference material for everyone. Not to mention, I've met numerous people who don't know the importance of watering a plants roots and NOT the plant. Many people have no idea how dangerous it is to just pour water on a plant; especially in the evening. Once again, I greatly appreciate your time and effort to share this knowledge with us. It truly is priceless and continuous.

    There is a company in Singapore that produces a whole range of products from this Lactobacillus. They have fertilizers for plants and probiotics for poultry. They have shown that this probiotic reduced chicken mortality to even less than commercial antibiotics. They were testing them on shrimp and seafood too. These things are gold. I wondered if you could use rice flour instead of washed rice water.

I will be applying this to my garden beds tonight. I got almost 2 full gallons of Lab from my process. Total process time was 5 days. Should be enough to feed my 24 raised beds, if not I know how to make it again thanks to you. The smell and taste of the LAB and Farmer cheese is surprisingly pleasant. No cheese cloth at the moment but will have the next batch. This is just one more step to a full no cost organic garden.

    Great video. Health for everyone. I would note though, make sure to use Organic rice. Rice from foreign countries may have used fertilizer containing arsenic. Blessings from Linda in middle Georgia.

    arsenic is not from fertilizer, instead it is naturally occurring in the soil. Organic rice is still better.

    I've been making LABS by letting organic store-bought Buttermilk separate at room temperature for 1-2 days. I then strain the separated Buttermilk through cheesecloth, this separates the LABS from the whey. This process can shave up to an entire week off of the traditional KNF LABS making procedure and I find the resulting LABS is very high grade. I then use the LABS in various ways including making Bokashi!

    Got raw milk to make the LABS it functioned much differently than the previous batch with pasteurized milk. Waiting to see if it was something on my end or what. The curds did not really separate, and were the texture of mayonnaise rather than kinda solid like before but there was a thin mold layer on top so I filtered out as much as I could through a mesh bag and strainer and set it back in the cabinet. It was still very milky but within a few hours had formed the 3 distinct layers with the whey I recognized in the middle

    thank you my friend!... LABS is often used to start Bokashi yes but its not the same as the EM1 thats sold with the actual Bokashi kits... a far superior starter to your Bokashi mix would be to make the JADAM Microbial Solution I made a video about because that has a far more diverse population of MO's and will give you a better result... LABS is basically just one particular strain of MO

A friend of mine shared some of his Bokashi bacteria with me and even though they work fine and decompose super fast once buried (I am trying to work heavy clay soil), I was wondering if the bacteria support my soil or not, because they were brought from the other side of the planet! What do you think?

    I've been making LAB for years and the serum lasts 6 months to a year in the refrigerator, but if you want to be able to keep it out at room temperature you need to add equal weight of brown sugar to saturate the LAB, if you don't completely saturate it it will still be active and make a foamy mess, but in general LAB can last a long time in the fridge

    Thanks for the great info. This process may take a little longer, but it is far simpler than the cooking process to make farmers cheese. FYI, there's another way to make lactobacillus that is people and plant friendly that is much cheaper. Granted, the process takes a little longer but you can make literally gallons of labs with nothing more than a couple of cups of brown rice, two or three cups of brown sugar, which can be made with just regular sugar and blackstrap molasses, and a few spoonfuls of sea salt. Great for the gut, great for plants, great for cleaning solutions, even laundry. So many uses for it.

    Another excellent video my dude. Could you please explain a little further the longer term storage recipe, ie is it straight 1:1 LAB with Brown Sugar? Do you first dissolve the sugar in an amount of water perhaps? It seems like a LOT of sugar, but maybe thats the idea. I use this stuff for a DIY bokashi set up so want to maximise the shelf life. Thanks heaps!

    yes I know it is definitely a lot of sugar!... that's one reason I don't promote KNF much because of the unbelievable amounts of sugar used.... but yes if you want to store at room temp its just 1 Liter of LABS to 1 Kilogram of brown sugar.... and yes you just mix the brown sugar directly into the LABS no additional anything... without going into it deeply, the sugar puts the bacteria to "sleep" and they remain dormant until you dilute with water and then they will re-awaken immediately... so it has to be almost like a syrup

Once the serum is ready, we add 25 litres of rain water and 1 litre of molasses. Tu use it, dilute 50cc of EM in 2 rainwater litres. We use it, until over. As our crop is very small, some times is up two years. I use this more than anything, as a compost component to bokashi.

    LAB serum has mesophilic cultures which means they prefer room temperature. Culturing your own gives you a more diverse variety of bacteria. Yoghurt cultures thrive at higher temperatures which is why you incubate your milk when making yoghurt. Yoghurt also tends to have only to or three different bacteria.
