This morning I sprayed a 501, nettles, equisetum tea stirred in the Ahrimanic stirring machine device. I must say that I have those little minions of Ahriman hard at work in this device and they dare not step out of line when they are working here. The beneficial elementals have a joyous time frolicking in the stirring water, eighty gallons flying around suckin' the cosmic forces down from heaven. I applied this elixer on the young tomatoes, black raspberries, strawberries, compost yard, and the asparagus, about twenty five acres all told. This evening I followed that with a tea of the same base but added 500 and barrel compost plus humate stirred again in the device of Ahriman.
I have to harvest about twenty five thousand units of my barrel compost made with 500-508. I have to figure out storage. I have to start getting ready to lay down the fall manure for more bc and acquire more horns for 500. I have been puzzling over this humic acid/humate situation. Investigations made today indicates to me that it is processed from leonardite or lignite coal which was made under the influence of freshwater or upland above sea level. Apparently the sea salt is an issue so they stay away from those sources. This material is derived from coal. I have been using coal dust in my barrel compost recipe. Is there a difference??? They do some process to the coal and extract the humate, [propriatary i am told], it is incredibly soluable in liquid or powder form. What happens to the coal dust in the composting process? I will have to do some chromatographs on this. I would also like to do some on different forms of nettles tea, equisetum tea and other stirred preps...anybody looking for a job??? Low pay, long hours, hard work... but very rewarding. stirring mad SStorch
