I know people use it in teas for more fungal growth. Get it wet with kelp meal and a bit of compost let it sit for a couple of days then throw that in an AACT

^^ what he said.

I mix a cup of castings with 6 tablespoons of oat flour and let sit for a few days. After its nice and furry I throw it in a tea with some fish hydrolosate and kelp meal.

Oats alone contain 15% thiamin 15% phosphorus and 15% magnesium..

All a very important factor to chunk the plant up mid to late flower organically.

I sprinkle pureed oatmeal in my worm bins. After a few days its starts producing mycelium fungi and the worms eat that shit up.

I bought some organic oatmeal today from an Amish store to use in a compost tea, but I'm also gonna try your worm bin trick. My bins are newly established, only since November I think and the worms are like little vacuums, eating up puréed veggies, coffee grounds and a lot of powdered egg shells, so they should mow it down. Thanks for the tip.

oatmeal also.has a wide variety of minerals / nutes in small amounts of course. Not just npk. Romaine lettuce has full spectrum of nutes too

I usually add a few cups of rice along with my amendments when i mix up a batch of new soil. I do this to feed the fungi and i have thought about using rolled oats instead. The rice breaks down pretty quick and i imagine the oats would do the same.

interesting stuff guys, I eat rolled oats almost every day... interesting...

MistaRasta · Jan 28, 2015

Thank you very much.

Flagg420 · Jan 29, 2015

the oats in meatloaf is great, just replaces the bread crumb/crackers in the recipe (rolled/quick tho, not steel cut, lol)

I have a surplus of baby oatmeal, the powdered stuff. Would it be about the same? I wonder if they use it in worm chow?
