LAB Culture (Gallon)
Started with Rice Wash Ferment
LAB culture is diluted at a 1:1,000 ratio with water (Table 1), mixed with a plant nutrient solution such as fermented plant juice (FPJ) (Miller et al., in press), and applied as a foliar spray to leaf surfaces of leaf or fruit crops. Apply Every 2 Weeks 1 month. Proceede to 1:2000 every month during vegetative stage. Procedde to 1:10000 during fruiting.
Note: Over-application of LAB culture to fruit crops may result in the loss of sweetness (lowered brix) of fruits. Apply sparingly in the latter stages of the fruiting season.
Application of LAB culture can accelerate the decomposition of organic amendments in soils and enhance the release of plant nutrients for absorption (Higa and Kinjo 1989).
If purchasing in bulk for long term, lactro requires to be fed 4 cups of organic cane sugar every 4 weeks, per 5 gallons. Or the smell of liquid begins to acidify. Adding sugar will increase the microbial count making your solution stronger. After about a month of feeding, it's advisable to culture microbes into a larger container to expand your purchase.
