    Boiling water kill pest reuse soil

    Neem cake, worm castings, and bokashi will get rid of harmful pests. You still might see hypoaspis mites and spring tails. They're beneficial bugs and not harmful. Never using boiling water. That will kill off most of the soil microbes minus extremophile bacteria

    How can i store fresh soil?

    The white web is mycelium fungi. It's good for the soil. It bioremediates the soil. It breaks down amendments faster. Basically speeding up the cook time for soil mixes. . A lot of people add bokashi to their soil to produce mycelium. I store soil in Rubbermaid totes.

    mushroom in my coco? good or bad? thanks

    It just means mushroom spores are present and theres a good microbial life. Mushrooms won't grow in living soil if the spores are not present regardless of the amount of mycelium there is.

    I feed the worms egg shells once every 2 weeks. Make sure to pulverize or puree the shells. I mix the shells with bokashi and top that onto some veggie scraps. Crab shell meal is good too. Egg shells will keep the bin ph on point. So you never get pot worms.

    Yes. Rice wash provides carbs for the bacteria to feed on. Without the rice wash domesticated bacteria strains that thrive in milk will outcompete other bacteria. You won't get the same results. You can use cereal or other grains instead of rice. Just make sure no pesticides or glyphosates...
