1:00pm - 2.30pm KOHA WORKSHOP: Brew Your Own Beneficial Microbes - KOHA - Registrations required - sign up at www.kaicycle.org.nz/volunteer
We’ve recently learnt how to make beneficial microbial brews from basic ingredients - join us for this koha workshop so we can practice and share our learnings!
We’ll practice making the base lactobacillus or ‘LAB’ brew (from rice, milk, molasses and water) and the ‘SPICE’ compost innoculant. We’ll talk about other brews you can make with the LAB base too. SPICE stands for 'Static Pile Inoculated Compost Extension', which means you can use this lovely brew to build a compost that doesn't need turning, which the beneficial fungi will love you for! Some of the other brews we'll talk about (like hydrolysate) can make great foliar sprays (to feed your plants through their leaves) and soil amendments.
