Once you chop up the seeds in a blender what do u do with the seed mash ...lol Iso what else to call it...is it a good idea to add it to the pile?
You can top dress it or feed it to your worms. I used to scatter it over the surface of the smart pots it disappears pretty quick. Lately i feed it to my worms.Once you chop up the seeds in a blender what do u do with the seed mash ...lol Iso what else to call it...is it a good idea to add it to the pile?
If you listen to him on that, you're doing yourself a disservice. Promise. ;DYou can top dress it or feed it to your worms. I used to scatter it over the surface of the smart pots it disappears pretty quick. Lately i feed it to my worms.
@Olive Drab Green. Sst isnt made with coconuts.
Coconut water is not remotely anything like "plant sperm". No.Coconut's the biggest seed ever, and the water is essentially plant sperm.
The coconut is fertilizer for the palm tree. Many growers here would agree with me.Coconut water is not remotely anything like "plant sperm". No.
Anyone in agreement with you would be mistaken. You beliefs show a failure to grasp basic biology.The coconut is fertilizer for the palm tree. Many growers here would agree with me.
I use diluted coconut water and aloe vera water when I make my SST's, works great. And coconut water is the endosperm of a coconut.@Olive Drab Green
"It is. Look it up. Are you fucking stupid or something? Coconut water is used in SSTs to increase induction of those enzymes."
Sst's may or may not have coconut water or many other possible additives. The fact is sst's are used for their enzyme content.
Your idiot tone only highlights your desperation and ignorance.
"Increase induction" lol gtfoh
Gardeners who make Sst and who are curious about the effects of coconut water might be interested in reading through this thread:

Basis SST requires only viable seeds, water and a strainer. Home depot paint strainers work great as do old t shirts to keep the seed moist and aerated.
The point I make is in reference to the claim that SST are used for K and cytokinins. They are not. Adding stuff to SST might make K and other PGRs available but SST does not require fulvic, seaweed, coconut or anything besides seeds and water. It's not a question or a debate. It is an indisputable fact.I use diluted coconut water and aloe vera water when I make my SST's, works great. And coconut water is the endosperm of a coconut.
Yeah I have made SST's without adding coconut water or aloe vera, you don't need fulvic acid either, but I use it.The point I make is in reference to the claim that SST are used for K and cytokinins.

Ya im clear on the fact that sst can be made with coconut water but SST's are not coconut water. You might be interested in the coconut water piece in the logical gardener. Adding coconut water water is not as straight forward as you might imagine.
Also endosperm is not sperm. Coconut water is not sperm.
That was a great thread, I just finished reading through most of it, I might stop using coconut water now, mine hasn't been properly stored at -20C , its been at room temperatures and according to this data all the plant hormones and microbiological life are most likely dead or down to trace amounts. Thanks for that article.I used the dried coconut for a while but after i began using SST more frequently I make it with just the seeds and water. We have cheap aloe all over the place here so I use it often in my drenches and foliars just whizzing it with an immersion blender and straining it into a sprayer or plopping it into a bucket. Ful Power was one of the first bottled products I purchased when i started gardening.
