Love and greetings from Germany. As a graduated biologist and gardener I am grateful for all this valuable information. Every living beeing has electricity.
I am so grateful for your work! May you be blessed with health and wealth. It changed my work and my life. It is challenging to apply it all in the desert here where I work as a permaculture designer and consultant. Thank you both ❤ from the desert of Dubai. Martin
Would you and Tom please make a video showing the use of the Refractometer? Probably you will also show how to raise the Brix number. I know one way is to use your GSR calcium, but what are the other way farmers/gardener's can get the numbers up?? These series with Tom is really really great. You two guys have a great way of communicating! There is always talk about using a Refractometer and the need to get the number up, but very little information about the procedure to raise the number. Thanks Glen and Tom for you video series.
Электропроводность почвы - самая интересная для меня тема. Потому что у меня не растут показания рефрактометра и из-за промывного режима осадков, электропроводность почвы всегда очень низкая. А эти вещи связаны между собой. Я не согласен с идеей вносить в почву сахар. Допустимая концентрация сахара в поливной воде - 1 грамм на литр, что недостаточно для повышения микробной активности, но увеличение этой нормы приведёт к увеличению патогенов. Неплохой вариант использовать листовые подкормки патокой или мелассой. Это увеличивает показания рефрактометра, но не сказывается на электропроводности почвы, к сожалению. Кстати, показания электропроводности в компосте намного выше 1,2 и без всяких химических удобрений, только за счёт микробов. Поэтому компост так эффективен при добавлении в почву. Дэн Киттедж рекомендует вносить в почву именно морскую соль в количестве 70 килограмм на гектар, с добавлением патоки, водорослей и других стимуляторов и минералов, но не одного сахара. И это всегда работает.
Great great content as always, always looking and looking forward for you spitting out great facts and arts of agronomy. BTW, is chlorophyll meter more preferable than brixing to measure photosynthetic engine since chlorophyll meter is much faster to make?
@@denniskemnitz1381yes, amperage is very low with my electroculture/earth batteries but it does show better results in my control tests. I'm hoping my new design gets more that 1 volt. The potential is there
Thanks for the information and entertainment. I do have a question…I bought a groline ec meter recently. Is it important to calibrate the meter? It says you need to purchase some type of calibration fluid. I literally just read the instructions this morning. Also, does the amount of soil moisture make a difference in the readings? Just curious on your thoughts, thank you
@@firstname-qq3xpcalibration most/important when you know the/voltage/or amperage expected by comparing technical manual for specific equipment you are repairing. Dennis
So you answered the question of what to do if ec is low. What do you do if it is too high and you have not applied NPK fertilizer? With the low condition, would adding compost tea with extra sugar and calcium be the best answer?
Thank you for the useful information provided,much appreciated.I have 2 Johnson Su bioreactors,of 1 and 5 months old.The conductivity at 1 month old is 0.1 , but the other at 5 months is at a whopping 2.3.Measured a few months ago it was 0.7.The materials used for composting are almost the same, the EC meter is the same as in your video.I tend to believe it is a good thing, because the growth is caused by the increasing biomass of microbes.What are your thoughts about this? Greetings from Romania.
@@denniskemnitz1381 No, I didn't get any answers, my guess is that it was possible because it is compost, not soil so there are no plants to absorb the minerals and metabolites that accumulate.
Stop using inorganic fertilizers, add good quality compost or compost tea, plant plenty of different plants, chop and drop your leaves and grass, it will revover
@@MIRSTROY I’m sry, but that doesn’t directly answer my question and I’m on this channel b/c I’m trying to learn about alternative methods to synthetic and chemical farming. I’ve inherited land and the methods used prior were not in my control. Is the protocol the same or is there another to recover if my EC is greater than 1200 or 1.2, depending on the meter used?
My current understanding is that Zeolite will absorb sodium like a sponge. Depending on how much land you are working with this may be a good first step. After that get the microbial life boosted with sugar and/or bio iniculants
@@MIRSTROY does she Dr/Ingham explain this stuff.I followed her information a while years ago. Did not hear her discussions beyond one or two lectures...Dennis
I have heard of golgi bodies years and years ago. And siemens also. I have not utilized the info. to rhis point in my farmng career. Cannot remember which professor or class or military school explained the phenomenon. Maybe was discussed in embryology class. Interesting method of plants sugar production..agree..Dennis
I currently enjoying the consistent discussion(differentiation of "electronics") within plant growth. Ex Bricks vs brix explanation. Dennis USN electronics technician many years ago....am l anywhere near mr rabenburgs level....hey BTW I believe I understand your plant physiology discussion ....
Now purchase another instrument to measure plant conductivity..possibly sap press too or do I grind leaf in blender then test with mass spectrophotometer...or NOT.Dennis
I love this series with Glen and Tom. Y'all're like Click and Clack, The Tappet Bros. (Car Talk) but it's agriculture instead of car repair!

Thank you boys for a wholesomely informative and enjoyable video!

Two of you are full of wit, and I am enjoying it. Great video.

WOW....beneficial for dessert farming too. Caused by conductivity differences???Dennis
Typo insert desert for "dessert." Dennis

Great information for my electroculture experiment. Thanks soo much! Sounds like I'm right where I need to be with 0.7volts
@@RickEasley-gf5sd probably very little amperage. I only guessing Dennis

Thanks for continuous explanation/and/consistency minutes ago. Dennis
Keep going. Thank you so much.Dennis
Are these conversations available in a podcast?
So interesting thankyou
So you answered the question of what to do if ec is low. What do you do if it is too high and you have not applied NPK fertilizer?
With the low condition, would adding compost tea with extra sugar and calcium be the best answer?
It can only be too high if there is inorganic salts. Dont add any more npk.
Did you learnn that info in chem or electrical or perhaps nuclear engineering. Dennis

SO you "dealing" with (farming) anaerobes and aerobes /SIMULTANEOUSLY in this "complex farming" laboratory . Dennis
Pure sodium is explosive isn't it. Dennis
Who said that.
@@denniskemnitz1381 No, I didn't get any answers, my guess is that it was possible because it is compost, not soil so there are no plants to absorb the minerals and metabolites that accumulate.
Can you provide a response for what to do if your EC is greater than 1200 or 1.2?

@@jebsaylor6238depends on units first of all. As in pounds, tons, grams or many other possibilities. English or metric/etc.
Siemens was a unit mentioned .Dennis
I better get my jumper cable out so I can kick-start my raised garden beds...lol
😊😂😊Dennis
LBS of sugar per an acer per a year? or
Gallons of molasses per an acer per a year?
Good questions. Dennis
Gotta meet specs for ACT or difficult to determine whether it
effective or
functional....Dennis
I have a lot of conventional farmers . Where do I start to convince them? Any books? For my own sake?
The soil food web school by dr elaine ingham is a complete course and much more in depth
@@MIRSTROY does she Dr/Ingham explain this stuff.I followed her information a while years ago. Did not hear her discussions beyond one or two lectures...Dennis
@@denniskemnitz1381they have a massive course available
What data is Dr Ingham currently using to identify "healthy" soil. Any recent pubs? Speechs? Debates? Classes? Dennis
Perhaps I need updated
data/ instrumentation. Dennis
What about paramagnetism

WOW ROOTS CONTROL CONDUCTIVITY IN /WELL DOING PLANT ROOTS...IT not that simple ...I probably missed something in my explanation..Dennis
"EC meter or heart meter." Goto dead zones defn. Everything (nothing is living) is dead
You almost explaining electronics now. Dennis usn electronics technician in past life
Fun video
Was this kind man so full of real science who made no apologies for speaking the truth, was he silenced to an early grave?
Probably not...
That plants electron flow is miniscule.😅
Now purchase another instrument to measure plant conductivity..possibly sap press too or do I grind leaf in blender then test with mass spectrophotometer...or NOT.Dennis
Wonder what @electroboom would say
