Description
Growing Organic Liquid Comfrey Extract is a Fermented Plant Extract made from comfrey. It is made on a small farm near Paonia, Colorado, using natural probiotic farming practices. The farm has operated under the direction of Miles Filippelli since 2016, producing plant inputs for the Fermented Plant Extracts line.
How it's made
Lactobacillus bacteria are saprophytes, meaning they are decomposers that break down organic matter. That trait is put to work in Fermented Plant Extracts, where lactobacillus are fed specific nutrient-dense food sources to break down plant compounds and extract them into a liquid form.
What's in it
Derived from Clean Mountain Water, Comfrey, molasses, sorghum syrup, Lactic Acid Bacteria sourced from local goat whey, and EM-1. It is then fermented until the plant matter is digested and extracted into the liquid and the sugars are consumed by the microbes, which locks in the pH for stability and ease of use in the garden.
Ingredients: Water, Lactic Acid Bacteria sourced from local goat whey, Molasses, Sorghum Syrup, Plant Matter (Comfrey), EM1
Why use it
Comfrey is known to be nutrient dense and beneficial for local biodiversity, and it has been used in many traditional settings as a soil conditioner, foliar spray and green mulch.
This extract is particularly useful for vegetative growth and in the transition from veg to bloom. It is also well rounded and can be used at any time of growth, and it will do no harm to feed it during flowering as well.
