Worms, worms, wooorms

My understanding is that neem and karanja are more for pest management than worm food.
I've been making veggie burgers with pinto beans w/ kelp and other seafood. throw in a blender. Put 1 in at veg and start of bloom. The first one I did I had added a banana. Worms went nuts over it but unfortunately so did the fungus gnats. That was before I knew about warrior bugs. For now I'm keeping sugars out of the pot until I'm confident the nematodes are fully established. Then I'll start using coconut powder in water in bloom and am going to try Seaweed Sugar from HomegrownBokashi. Also interested in Dry Powdered Blackstrap Molasses
 
Just rubbed the stem of the giant zkittles and it definitely smells of like when you open the bag of skittles cant wait for the flower..

That seaweed sugar stuff looks good! I got lucky and the diff bokashi stuff he makes he told me how he does it so gonna make my own! Think instead of wheat or rice bran I think he uses oat bran which is why it’s white! Plus rice hulls and down to earth dry amendments to make it nutrient enhanced! That seaweed sugar tho he takes fresh kelp and ferments it and then puts it in this fancy bokashi composter liquid extractor deal that squeezes the juice from the compost! Looks good tho and I made my own pest spray similar to his! Using peppers/ mint leaf and garlic! It’s almost done and then em5 pest spray has an extra 2 weeks! Been going hard on making my own stuff to grow with! I am a cheap bastard since always broke! :rofl:
 
@TxRebel/Mark just got my rock dust. How much should I be adding any ideas??

What size pot? I don’t use much in my earthbox! Maybe 1/2tsp is all it takes! It’s just used to help the worms digest their food! Instead of rock dust and to add calcium if u save eggshells and clean the membrane out of the inside u can grind them up and the worms will use that for digestion the same as rock dust and will add calcium to the soil!

Care to share that recipe? I've got some peppers and mint growing outside as my "cover crop". I'll have to start some garlic.

Sorry I missed that I’ll add link but I used the em1 fermented plant extract recipe from the www.teraganix.com site!
