what is the correct way to use EM1 one of our VIP members asked me this great question so in this
video we are going to get into it please remember to like share and subscribe we got our 2.99
membership and we have a VIP if you need a little more one-on-one link down in the description I
was going to ask you what the correct way to actually water EM1 is at the current moment
using seven milliliters of Organ Shield I want to say I'm using seven milliliters of fermented EM1
and I'll mix in that with dob and I'm just going right into my Medium as far as that's concerned
when I started doing it a few times it looked like it was almost like kind of like bubbly and sudsy
which kind of gave me a little bit of concern but I didn't see the plants like on react to it in a
bad way at all but it's definitely something that I want to touch bases but doing just make sure
that I was doing correctly so are you foliar or are you going into your soil so I've been using
for the respray as in I've also been watering into the soil itself just like what I just explained
to you okay so for watering into your soil the only thing you want to use is drops of balance
and EM1 unless you have a bug problem in your soil then you would also add the organic Shield
gotcha okay so yeah I've definitely been doing it wrong oh it's not wrong it's not wrong you're not
doing it you're not doing it we're just being more effective we the organic Shield it breaks
down to water CO2 and sugar and where it could affect you poorly is roots use oxygen and CO2
to control the pH in the in the rhizosphere and because organic Shield breaks down into water CO2
and sugar over the course of 24 hours there could be a possibility of the bacteria fighting having
a something still outside to competing bacterias that you were speaking about earlier yeah but this
time it's more of a competing gas that isn't it could pot and it's just a possibility I mean if
you were ever going to put something on the root system you want to put organic [ __ ] over in any
other pesticidal fungicide because all the other ones are oil based so they're going to coat The
Roots it's going to choke Out The Roots the Roots aren't going to be able to take up water because
what happens with water and oil right it oil sits on top of water right exactly and so when
the oil saturates the root system do you think it's going to be easy for the roots to take up
the water now the oil is going to stop the water from penetrating into the roots exactly until the
oil is completely broken down or there's uh you know it's going to say it to get choking off so
that's why if you've got to put a pesticide in the soil you're going to want it to be organizational
although that's the reason why I would say don't put it in every time is because it breaks down to
CO2 and that could be affecting pH of your soil your rhizosphere but then as a foliar you want to
be adding and I'll go back to the concentrations for the soil in a second okay for the foliar you
want to use DB EM1 and organic Shield every foliar and that's going to happen once a week only once a
week oh wow I was actually you know I was up there spraying those things at least like once a day to
be honest with you and not only because I remember you saying that with Organic Shield you could use
organic Shield as much as you want on the plants and it wasn't going to hurt the plant the same
with EM1 it drops the balance although at the same time What Becomes counterproductive right the
counterproductive part becomes your VPD so there's always a range for everything like if you're in
the tropics and you were growing tropical plants you're going to want to folio probably every day
right because you're growing plants that are meant to be grown in high humidity environments
where the humidity is 80 plus degrees every day although these plants the VPD and what is this
BPD we're talking about vapor pressure right and I'm talking about a gas a water a gas a water is
not a vapor but water will evaporate away into a vapor and same as if like you put your hands in
a pool too long what happens to your hands your hands start to get crinkled got a little crinkle
right same thing with the the leaves the uh when the VPD is off calcium starts to flow and what
happens to those leaves they get a little crinkly right yes I'm not saying what you're putting on
on a foliar spray that's not like you're you're doing something bad because all the things of how
they work and how they break down is phenomenal but that one component water is where it could be
too much right and excess can happen a VPD issue can start to happen and calcium could possibly
start flowing so that's why it's a it's a little better to control your VPD more with through that
humidifier and only pull your straight once a week because when you create a proper humidity
in the room the proper amount of moisture will fall into those leaves on a daily basis and
then that micronutrients in that bacteria will have an ideal environment to flourish in the
humidity that it's existing in that should that means a lot of seconds that is perfect [Music]
recently has it really come to prominence in can throwing as you know more more regulation
but very simply VPD is a measurement it's a tool to kind of measure the
