Just about anything will work, but for long term and animal protection this method has proven to be successful. I have actually used the box of materials after an animal dug it up because the screen secured the contents.
Hi, I'm speechless but, I just ordered your book, I asked a question, and your video came up, the Holy Spirit is Truly Amazing, but, I Love this stuff... Thanks so Much God Bless 🌿
Watched a few of your videos Nigel.. very interesting. I think your book would well be worth a read and I hope it supports your channel.and knowledge you have shared. I'm in the UK respect bro.
Nigel! Damn son! You collect-infect-trap basically exactly like I do! That's really refreshing and it's obvious at least to these eyes anyway, that you may have been 'practicing the art' of trapping as long as me. I set my first trap in 2016 here in Colorado based solely off Master Cho's original napkin drawings and notes, along with Gil's super valuable early website (thank you Gil!). Please continue doing this great work as you provide a friendly, accurate account of the details to be considering for more successful captures. Many newer folks do not understand the wisdom you have gained and shared already! Excited to learn more from ya as you promote elegant, effective solutions smack in the middle of a supply chain/inflation realization of the brokenness of it all!
, Thanks so much for this educative video I really learnt. Your approach is better and certainly straight forward than many others I have watched. The question is can one use any other food apart from rice? Thank you
Build a box, cook the rice, dig a hole... Meanwhile the perfect traps are sitting on the dirt pile you made... Already inoculated... A small bucket of soil and wood chunks from your favorite spots are all one needs.
the key is to remember where you put it, lmao, i like the lumpy structure of the rice you made. i always feel bad when people put the rice into the box as if pouring concrete into the mold:)
You could use a basket or box of any material. For long term use a cedar box will last long and because of its antimicrobial character less likely to support specific biology.
Cedar is extremely rot resistant. My first choice is cedar. From there it would be Osage Orange and Cypress. All depends on where you live and what you can find locally. I would not go to the extent of ordering Western Red Cedar if I lived in the Midwest where Osage Orange is abundant. You do not want Eastern Red Cedar. It is not a true cedar.

Hi! I work as a biology teacher and wanted to make IMO#1 with my students and then do a watering experiment using IMO and plain water and compare. I have attempted 4 times and only get green, black, red and yellow stuff. I followed your instructions but I don't seem to be getting the white stuff. I checked it after 4 days and between day 4 and day 10 it goes from nothing to multicolored. The first color to show up is usually pink/red and the last one is the white fluf on top but the rice is completely green-blue-black. Any idea? I cant find any troubleshooting guidelines anywhere. Thanks for reading this if you do. Virginia from Uruguay.
Thank you for sharing these important ideas with your students. Experimentation using these recipes is the best way to realize their effects. Showing younger people how to experiment is the best way to get them thinking for themselves. It sounds like there is too much moisture somewhere in your process. Be sure the rice is "hard" meaning under cooked and dry, add less water. The area you are putting the trap may be too wet also, perhaps try a different spot. Please let me know if you have any other questions.
@@nigelpalmer3439 my students were super exited! We tried in 4 diferent places and I did try to get the rice dry, I'll try one more time and not cooking it though which is what I have not tried, we had it "al dente". Thanks for replying. Any idea what would happen if I use whatever I get of fungal growth? Could ot damage plants if it is the wrong mo?
I got exactly the same Problem! Did you use cheap rice? I did and I thought that would be the problem. I had the rice pretty hard cooked too and some very dry days. No fluffy stuff, just Multicolor, also starting with red /pink spots and then turning yellow, and black
No need to follow any mathod blindly u can catch this white mold anywhere no need to go to forest even inside ur kitchen cobert and rice also not necessary u can take vermicompost and oats powder and keep it inside ur house
I thought imo needed to be made in a natural area where microbiology thrives like an ancient forest that isn’t watered by human input. I live in a desert climate so an area like this is hard to find. Can i just use some of the soil on my property it’s full of microrizzae and leaf mold, worms, etc but i thought we were doing this to bring in more microbiology to our yard.
Natural area yes, but local like your back yard! Harness the biology in your back yard and bring it into your growing space which may not have the same diversity.
Dont need any forest area for this imo u can make it inside ur house too because it catch only this white fungus which is a decomposing fungus and it present everywhere , it doesnt have any maichoraiza or tricoderma or other beneficial fungus except this decamposing fungus and many times it also attract black harmful fungus in forest area
that stick with mycellium probably had many other microorganisms. maybe they are not harmful but why would you include it into a "culture" of usefull MOrganisms that you want to breed? do you add beer yeast into the milk when you are making yoghurt, no you dont. thats why.
He means he used brown rice instead of white rice to cultivate aerobic and anaerobic IMO. Brown rice has more vitamins/minerals, but white rice is the most commonly used.
@@jaymartin85 I see you asked a couple other questions, but I can't find them to respond for some reason. Feel free to write me at nigel@tiosn.com if interested. Sorry for the inconvenience.
he means brown rice:)...he doesnt mean red or another variety of rice. brown rice is regular white rice but with its germ layer on, not removed. only the bran is removed from the rice, which also has its place in KNF. think about the nuts like hazelnut, chestnut or wallnut. most of the times people eat them with the "brown" germ layer on. you dont have to remove them as their thick shells. you crack them, and you have another thin layer over the edible nut, which is called germ layer according to wikipedia:). if you roast the nut in oven for a while then that layer can be removed easily. the nut you get has whitish creamy colour. same concept is valid in rice. sorry for weird english.
Should work. Top of pot just below soil surface like box. The only concern would be not having a screen attached to prevent animals from getting into it. Let me know how it works out.
, Thanks so much for this educative video I really learnt. Your approach is better and certainly straight forward than many others I have watched. The question is can one use any other food apart from rice? Thank you
Thank you for your kind words. I have not tried anything other than rice because it is so easy for me to get. I would think that any grain may work. Use what you have. Under cook the grain with a little less water than usual. What is available to you? Please let me know how things work out
That is a sick looking box man full packed full crazy stuff
Thank you for the video. Liked your method and the catch looked amazing.
Thank you!
I use a similar method using tights and rice; but yours looks so clean. Thanks for enriching me with knowledge.

Thank you.

Wow😳😍 never seen imo as beautiful as this..
Pls is there salt in the cooked rice?
No
Thanks
Can't wait for the second process to the stagedue for application to the piggery
The second process is out there. ua-cam.com/video/g5q_vKUfP7Y/v-deo.html More to come when I have the time to put it together.
Do you add salt to the rice??
, Thanks so much for this educative video I really learnt. Your approach is better and certainly straight forward than many others I have watched. The question is can one use any other food apart from rice?
Thank you
I am sure you can, but rice is so cheap and available in my part of the world I have not tried anything else.
How much water should I use to cook the rice
Use slightly less water than when cooking rice normally. It wants to be hard, not mushy. See page 160.
Build a box, cook the rice, dig a hole... Meanwhile the perfect traps are sitting on the dirt pile you made... Already inoculated... A small bucket of soil and wood chunks from your favorite spots are all one needs.
Yes, also a useful. IMO 4 is a significantly more advanced product for many reasons.
You should learn Korean natural farming and madam
Interesting video, thank you! What do you look for when finding a collection site. Do you just dig around on are there visual signs to look for?
Leaf litter with duff underneath. Where there is life in the soil.
the key is to remember where you put it, lmao, i like the lumpy structure of the rice you made. i always feel bad when people put the rice into the box as if pouring concrete into the mold:)
The sticks help find the box. Hard, drier and lumpy...
Thank you for the video! I'll be waiting for part 2!
Thank you
Dose the type of wood used matter?

Some of the best IMO1 I have seen, great job! What grains do you usually mix with it when you go to IMO3? Do you do 50/50 carbon/carbohydrates?
organic short grain rice.
@@nigelpalmer3439 Yes, for IMO1, but when you go to IMO3, you use rice as your grain?
Organic wheat bran. Will have an IMO 3 video out in the future.
@@nigelpalmer3439 marvelous.
@@jaymartin85 Have experimented with leaves and other around the yard materials, but have always fallen back on wheat bran as the major constituent.

Why didn't you put the branch with mycelium in with the rice?
As you can see by the results there was no need to stack the deck.
that stick with mycellium probably had many other microorganisms. maybe they are not harmful but why would you include it into a "culture" of usefull MOrganisms that you want to breed? do you add beer yeast into the milk when you are making yoghurt, no you dont. thats why.
