LEARN - SHARE - GROW

What is Fermented Fruit Extract??

​

FFE is a Lactobacillus based extract. Using LABS you can extract the full potential of the fruits.  By adding LABS and Molasses in an anaerobic environment the Labs can feed readily and replicate quickly. The lacto then feed on the fruit matter and as a result convert there active compounds into nutrients that is readily available for plant uptake.

​

​

(STEP 3)

Put it all together and let it work it's magic.

​

Pour Lacto Serum over chopped fruits until it completely covers the fruits by 1/2 inch.

​

***Important Note: Lacto ferments are meant to be anaerobic and require you to seal the lid air tight and will work best with an airlock to prevent back pressure.***

​

**Let this sit for about 2 weeks!!! Strain off solids and use in soil drenches at 1 to 2 tsp per gallon. Add the solids you strained off to your Organic Living Soil batch and allow it to cook with your mix!! This will release more microbes into your soil)**
