How to capture, cultivate, preserve, and use Lactic Acid Bacteria - IMO - using the techniques of Korean Natural Farming. Using materials readily at home or off of the grocery store shelf I will demonstrate step by step the process. Lactic acid bacteria is an excellent natural digester of organic matter, recycler of nutrients, foul odor arrestor, suppressant of pathogens in the soil and on plant surfaces. It is a naturally occurring, indigenous, non-GMO, organic microbe.

There are several sources that describe in writing and pictures how to do the process; however, I have not found one video that shows step by step the "How and Why" of making your own Lacto. Many thanks to the teachers whom I have never met (Master Cho - Cho Global Natural Farming, Mr Gil Carandang of Herbana Farms - Philippines, Mrs. Kim C.S. Chang and Dr Hoon Park, MD -retired - Hawaii). Their writings have allowed me to learn, use, and now show you all the technique. I hope you enjoy!

  • hi

    just thought i would tell you that ihave made my first batch and have been using it for about a month and am getting great results everything seems so much healthier and stronger i have had my best tomato harvest i am really rapt with it iuse it once a week on my garden would it be ok for me to share this on google+ thanks for the best gardening hint ever jeremy

  • @jerry009ish That's perfectly fine. I made the video to help people and if you think more people can be helped and reached with Google+ then by all means please do so.

    Best Wishes

  • Got it, that doesn't even sound like a problem to me if I hit that wall, I want to use the majority of the waste material for improving my inoculate high quality compost for potting soil. In my personal case my ducks literally ride my shovel if I do any digging, and subsequently dig anywhere I loosen the ground. But when I compost I can bring in 1000's of worms to feed them before I sift it for later use. When spraying bedding or manure in a bad situation can going 20:1 leverage the remediation?

  • Thats a good place to start...if not just change the ratio.

  • When it goes bad from excess heat, is it a matter of putrifying? or is it some negative microbe going rampant? I do only aerobic hot composting 122f-150f and I presumed when exposed to air EM would function as a heat activator to help the pile cook up. But it sounds like in anaerobic conditions going over 100F seems to kill off beneficials, is it the same when there in an aerobic state?

  • It putrefies. The thing to do then is to go and bury it with a healthy dose of Lacto, or EM1, or Bokashi Bran. The Lacto is the main decomposer and is 50% +/- of EM1 or the bran. It will go in and break down the bad waste as will the rest of the micro biology in the soil.

see all

  • @marthale. the quickness of breakdown was very noticeable, the compost also was very airy after I applied LABS to it.

  • @timmyg7711 Did it break down faster or what was your results?

  • This is the best info on the web, thank you so much, very easy to follow. I am amazed what took place in my compost bin after I applied LABS.

  • Great knowledge sharing skills and amazing completeness of points given. Greatly appreciate the information

  • thank you for sharing this video

  • I'm thinking of modifying the recipe but I don't have the science yet to prove it's efficacy.

    I once soaked some hay and manure under water that had about a gallon of worm juice added, in 3 days urine soaked hay was smelling sweet and pickled. I was messing around with the mulch at the time I didn't really think about the bacterial ferment aspect . If I used 1 part whey, 1.5 parts molasses and 1 part worm juice. I'm thinking I'll have all the bacterial microbes in combination i'll ever need?
