ha at the huckleberry that made me chuckle fer sure.
my buddy on the mountain uses cocoa bean shells and alapaca manure. Both as fertilizers and compost. The cocoa also as a mulch. It has an even balanced npk 2-2-2 or 3-3-3. I don't know what other minerals cocoa shells may have.
Kinda wish there was a love button to hit for ya. Thanks for the info, gonna have to give it a try, Im sure I can find it online. I would imagine I would want the shells only not the beans themselves correct? I figure chocolate is typically not good for most things so..
yeah just the shells. They can be used for aeration too. Similar to rice hulls.
this guano is from sunleaves? you don't have sunleaves guano line? that's what I meant.
its called leachate and can be used be carefull can be anaerobic and can harm plants, and has pythotoxins
we do have that line. That and the guano company. I'm referring to all bat guano.
in proper growing conditions your plant's immune system can handle about anything. those chocolate husks stick together when wet and clump. I fed them to my worms, and they sure liked them. but, I would use caution adding organic matter to your soil that is not fully rotted, unless as a mulch.
My bad bro I should of stated that I would be composting in the worm bin first, which takes 3 months untill that bin hits my soil which I then create and compost for another 2 months before it goes into the pots that the veg plants get vegged in for 2 more months then flipped into flower for 2 months. so in all it would compost for about a half year before used
Your words were for sure needed though, it gives much more light to anyone looking in or googling across this as to how to go about using them if they were to want to.

absolutely, its the way i have grown for many many years, I use to do the chem thing but growing up in a hardcore farming community, and with hippie parents, I soon began thinking why arent I replicating what most these farmers/my own parents were doing, there gardens were always epic, and it was just a simple process of composting and reusing everything, and finding nutrients in the cheapest easiest ways. In the end the results spoke for themselves and I quit buying and spending tons of money at the grow stores, and supplying the people whom already have massive pockets with far more, and the result was cheaper, better, and the ability to produce more for less. When you can do all those things at once there isn't a company or person in the world that would turn that offer down.excellent method. mellowed medium performs the best. all webbed with fungal goodness
when I get set-up, out in AZ, I'm going to do black soldier fly farming, feed that frass to red wigglers to finish off quickly, and feed excess worms, and all the black soldier fly grubs to chickens, and use their waste as insect chow. a circle

I'm considering adding some of the black soldier fly grubs to my diet also......lol. very high in protein. all the right fats. free-range.....lol. totally serious. I'm preparing for the 'Pocyclypse................
haha Totally playing with ya, the circle is what any true organic farmer is working towards I believe. If you arent I dont think mentally youre an organic farmer yet..I love using frass for my grows, bought a bag once never stopped using it. Sadly I gotta buy it though, I am positive no one around me wants me raising flies or chickens...

messing with ya, I actually am in the same boat as you, as is my girlfriend/very soon to be fiance..Hard times are for sure coming, although harder times will always be on its way. Thats the nature of this life, and to be honest we deserve it, we destroy, pollute, dont care about anything, and its coming back to get us. Its only then when the hard hard times hit will people begin caring, and its always to late then...thats the bitch about procrastination it always ends bad in one way or another....the beauty of it all though in my mind, is the fact theres more then likely something better. The world works so that you get a shit storm, but after that you get a little bit of awesome, but mostly shit storming away, and I have faith when ya die cuz ya dealt with the shit storm, youll just get pure awesome.
homo destructus........that's us. I just do my bit, an' try to be an example to others. self-sufficiency, integrity, empathy. we'll see what happens, but I do not intend to sit around, an' wait for my UN Daily Humanitarian Ration biscuit.......no sir.That picture made me cry laughing, oh...im sorry thats probably you? HAHA..in that case you look like an upstanding citizen any government would LOVE to have
