Microorganisms

By Jackson

Make it better than it was a year ago. .Our restrictions today are usually because:

1) We cause stress, and two, we make

(dead spot)

..today with a little over-emphasis you—impress upon you—the fact that we have a lot to do with what goes on in the microbial world. The very world in which you have to live and have to survive, your crops depend on it, your life depends on it, your animals depend on it.

So what I would like to do before we get started and while a few people are coming in to be seated. I would like everyone on the left hand side here to please stand. Do me the favor and help.

If you have a laptop computer or you’re taking notes, you’re welcome to be seated. I don’t want you to be inconvenienced. If you’re in the process, because it’s going to take a couple minutes—you’re welcome to be seated.

Anybody here that’s wearing glasses, I’d like for you to be seated. Anyone who is just sick and tired of just standing up and don’t know what I’m going to do to you, you’re welcome to be seated. Now a few of you stand up. Don’t just do a total wipe-out on me.

Alright, now these folks are thinking like a micro-organism, right? And I want the rest of you over here, look at how many were standing and look at how many are now seated. Alright, what if I bundled all of these precious microbes together and put them in a barrel and then I was going to ship them somewhere to do somethi8ng for me?

Oh, is it interesting that sometimes they go dormant on us. They needed to sit down for one reason or two others. They weren’t ready.

2) Some of them—anyone still standing that’s an airplane pilot. Oh, my goodness. On this side, do I have a single airplane pilot? Would you do me a favor? Would you come up here for a second, because you’re select. We have a task after while, and we’ll need you.

How many veterinarian doctors do we have on this side still standing? Oh, my goodness. Any over here that were seated for some reason or another? Do we have a veterinarian on this side? Would you do me a favor and come up?

The rest of you don’t grow weary. Your good intentions, and you’re with me and I need you. We really need you because a lot of them sat down on us. Okay. I really appreciate you cooperating.

Okay, I need one nutritionist. Anybody from the group still standing. Will you please come up? I’m so glad you were a volunteer to start with. You’re on the select side and we lucked out.

Okay, would the 20% that are still standing please relax and be seated. I thank you for helping me.

Now, these three gentlemen plus a few more that I haven’t hand picked yet because I haven’t determined what the assignment is. Would the ones here on the front row stand right behind these three? And I need one more. The gentleman in the corner from New Mexico.

Now, do you know what my point is? Anybody guess yet? Me either. Alright, you may be seated. Thank you.

Some of you received a brochure from the booth the other day—and you gentlemen, too. I haven’t figured out yet what I have for you to do, but I will in a few minutes. Don’t forget to stay with me, because we’re going to do something with the seven plus three. We had ten. Is that incredible?

Alright, now. This is an interesting thing. Some of the information you received in a brochure was given to you with the intent that you may not understand it. I love it! Because what that does is that allows people to ask questions. Then we can explain it. Intended confusion.

Now, there are several things we need to establish early on in this situation. In situ(?) microbial treatment may well be the ideal animal waste treatment technique. The various areas where the waste products are found serve as a reactor structure. Other commercial waste treatment sites have taken naturally occurring microorganisms and qeued them up with naturally occurring hormonal enzymes and co-enzymes, thus accentuating or promoting their growth through the addition of nutrient and oxygen. This, in turn, accelerates their natural bio-degradation properties, yet does not require a formal reactor.

Using this approach, the natural in situ environment, itself becomes a giant reactor. Is that good news? Don’t memorize it. It’s okay. I just had to say it. That’s text book. Let’s talk about it informally.

You see, nature is already in process of doing its task with the microorganisms that are so abundant on every front. They’re here. They indigenous. They’re everywhere, and they’re involved. But you see, what happens sometimes is that they are a little sluggish, or they work at the rate of speed for the balance they were used to—less stress.

The capability of the bacterium to degrade animal waste materials controlled by enzyme stimulation that catalyze the special oxidation even though a bacteria contains the information to synthesize enzymes in its genetic material, the cell will not spend the energy to produce the enzymes necessary for rapid reproduction and thus accelerate the degrading of a specific waste material: compost; manure; whatever.

The application of bio-stimulant enzymes serves as a trigger and on switch of genetic material of a bacteria and thus serves as an inducer molecule. The inducer may then serve as the degradation product of the strata of the molecule. Some more text book. I promise that is the last one.

How many of you are familiar with this? The picture is bigger than my screen. That’s alright. I’ll explain to you what it is as you are looking at it. It’s a nitrogen-fixing bacterium. Dr. Bargila Rataviera(?) I borrowed that from her text book. Just wanted you to see what the general shape of a bacterium is—this particular one specifically.

Now, what is the process is going to be? We need to include a little humor here. At the bottom it says, “I hate being a DNA molecule. There’s so much to remember!”

Alright, so here we have a bacterium and below that you will see a yeast cell, and what I want you to understand from this is that every one of these that is a functioning free circle, for example, is standing alone by itself, but getting ready to have a baby. Privately, this one is having a baby. This one is having a baby, This one'’s having a baby. Here’s’ another, here’s another. We'’re in developmental stages that differ from time to time. Wouldn’t it be kind of interesting to see if you could take one of these—just one of these, and make one billion of them in 24 hours?

One billion. You see, they never can get complex enough to be a unit. They are only one cell—can only be one cell and inasmuch as they are one cell, if they eat too much and expand, they don’t change their belt size to have a baby. As soon as that one is out we have two and we’re going to double that, and that’s four, and then 16, to a billion.

Remember the story about the guy that walked into the blacksmith shop and he says, “you’re charging way too much to shoe my horse.” The blacksmith said, “That’s the charge.”

“Wait a minute, you’ve got to reduce the price.” He says, “Okay. Why don’t we start with only one penny? One penny for the first nail and I’ll double it for the next one, and I’ll shod your horse for that.” Now you stop and figure our how many nails there are in a shoe, plus four feet, and then times doubling all the way through. The poor sucker had to dig out his wallet and then go to the savings account at the bank because he made a geometric mistake and that’s the kind of thing that happens with our bacteria, or any microorganisms.

I’ve got to show you the bacterium. He’s having a baby, too. I don’t want to leave him out. They divide, split, do whatever they need to do.

Now, you say, “well, how does the thing function?”

It’s kind of an interesting thing. Food in, poop out. Pretty simple. But there is a very complex system going on inside of that process and food in/food out. Earthworm castings, are you more familiar with that? Is that easier to see? Food in, poop out.

Do you want to have some of the best topsoil in the world for your potted plants? Buy some worm castings and plant your plants, and you’ll do very very well, but it would be a little bit ridiculous from the economic standpoint to ever assume that you could have enough castings to do 1,000 acres. That’s the problem.

Now, if the castings from a microorganism are virtually the same—in some cases better than an earthworm casting—and if the outer shell, the membrane, also after its demise. It has lived its life and apse on. All of that put together making topsoil. That’s the equivalent of earthworm castings, so it could be mackerel, earthworm et al, or it could be micro and the various microorganisms that we use, alright? Interesting possibility coming up.

Now I would like for you to take a look—well, we’ll start at this end first. See how coordinated it is when you look in a mirror? Alright, now…

Remember yesterday, we said what would it be like if we had collected or purchased a McDonald’s franchise 35 years ago? Oh, I wish we would have. I wish it would have been the good luck of everyone of us in this room, because you would be independently comfortable

Now, if we could make this little McDonald’s factory multiply one million times; on billion times up to 12 billion times in 24 hours, would you be interested in a financial investment? Come on! Let’s go to the stock market. We could make a few dollars just on speculation here.

This is a factory. This absolutely is a factory. We’re going to start with the fuel. Haul the fuel in. We’ve got to fire up the factory. And we’re going to have to pull ammonia NH4 plus part of the equation. Phosphorous, sulfur, carbon source and then it’s going to move on. At this point what are we doing? The catabolic reactions means break it apart. Whatever went in has to be taken all apart.

Going to have a re-assembling going on pretty soon, so take everything apart. Start over. Everything wasn’t exactly ready to use, so take the parts apart. Then we’re going to go into a bio-synthetic reaction where we’re going to start re-assembling, but we’re going to re-assemble according to what you need. You need shelves in the basement? Fine. Somebody just tore down the end of the barn and we have some nice 12” boards that are 4, 5, 6, 10 feet long. We’re going to re-assemble the end of the barn and make shelves in the basement.

To bio-synthetic reactions we bring back together that which had been pulled apart when we first entered the process, and you have to have fuel to do it. Energy, right? Okay.

We’re going to move on over, Woah! Hexamines. Amino acid, nucleotides, I mean these are getting put back together. These are the shelves in the basement. This is the kitchen cabinet. This is whatever you decided to use out of what had been torn apart before. We’re running a second hand lumber yard maybe, but we’re going to make something so beautiful and so special, and so tailor-made for the job that you can’t find it anywhere else. We’re going to make it. We tore it apart. Now we put it back together.

Okay, now we’re going to go through polymerization and we’re going to bring a hexamine, our amino acids, our nucleotides, and they’re going to move forward. Look at here. We’re going to develop cell wall. We’re going to take a little protein. We’re going to add and make the membrane. Where did that all come from? Oh, nitrogen, phosphorous, sulfur, etc.

Look here. We’re going to use the rest of the amino acid and it’s going to try to travel over here, and we have proteins here—60% of the weight is protein.

Then the nucleotides are coming off over here and we’re going to have RNA and we’re going to have DNA.

I’ll tell you what. Sounds kind of fun, but tell you where you need to get some numbers together. Well, of what is a cell bacteria composed? 70% is water. Anybody tell you need to drink X-number of glasses of water a day because? That individual cell is 70% water and you might just as well not try to get by with dehydrating it.

Protein. Oh, my goodness. This is a little frightening—it’s 15%. Protein enzymes, protein molecules, 3,000 different kinds. I didn’t say 3,000 of them. I said 3,000 different kinds. What a selection of boards to build the cupboard in the basement. I mean, take your pick. We have 3,000 different kinds and they are on duty to do whatever we need to do. And inside of the factory that I showed you a moment ago—inside of the factory you have one to two different kinds of DNA. You have over 1,000 different molecular species—different kinds of RNA. Do you remember yesterday when I talked to you and I said remember the electric in a cell, and the nuclei is a positive post? DNA is always heading for the nuclei, and we had the negative post or cytoplasm or protoplasm and that’s always going to be negative, and that’s where the RNA goes. So, the DNA says, “I want to do this,” and the RNA says, “I’m your on switch. We’ll stamp it on. We’re going to make it happen.”

Do you know? Do you have any idea how fast we snap things on of DNA and the RNA hitting them? I mean, the RNA has to come out of the thousand different directions just to make sure it’s getting stamped in the right place when that DNA starts making its mind up what it wants to do.

Do you know that DNA makes 400,000 imprints per second? 400,000 imprints per second! Our education for DNA comes out of the newspaper because we’re just tracking a few little things like blood circulation or family history or whatever. And here’s this ribbon, right? It stamps them on there so fast that the ribbon itself cannot be more tangled than it appears? Every so far it has a complete swivel. It stamps it on there, and instead of it getting all tangled up it has a swivel and it catches the next one. 400,000 imprints a second

Now, tell you what you do. Make you a deal. Forget all the numbers I gave you. But do remember one concept. Nature has the ability. Nature has the answer to solve its own problems without degenerating. Fair enough? It’s the only thing you have to remember. The rest of it I just tried to impress you with, and I see it isn’t working, so remember that all of this is going on very rapidly.

Now we have carbohydrates. How many carbohydrates? We have 50 different kinds and all the different molecules. Did you ever assume that in one cell there was only one molecule? Oh, no, no, no. Look how many we’re counting up, and those molecules fall in the category of enzymes.

Lipids or fats you have another 50 different kinds. Woa, building blocks. We’re going to have babies. Building blocks—the potential to make another one. We have over 500 different things that do nothing but help them make another like itself—another replication—instantly.

Then take a look. We have inorganic ions or your trace minerals. Your fulvic, your humic material. You have to have at least 12 different kinds in order to create the electrolyte for life, for energy in that cell.

This is kind of fun, because if I can find this factory—well, I’ll be. You see, that is a very complicated factory. If you have have 3,000 different potentials from amino acid protein, or proteinate—different kinds, and there’ll be many many different ones from that. If you have all of that going on in here, do you understand why I’m excited about what goes on in one cell? Because the answers are in that one cell, and yet there’s a way to make a billion to 12 billion. I’m going to just stay within reason. Go from one to one billion in 24 hours.

Now you say, “Well, I don’t understand for sure. I respect the value.” Do you really? How many of you would like to have had a McDonald’s 35 years ago? Thank you very much. I’m one of you.

How many of you have a tendency toward arson? Don’t hold your hands up. (chuckle) You’d like to just destroy things. You want to burn it down. You don’t like how it works. Or at least burn the roof off so it takes them at least two months to rebuild/reconstruct. Make them do it again. It’s too easy.

Would you be so destructive as to actually stop the process or slow it down? Totally destroy it to some degree? Would you burn it down? How would you like to put some chemicals on it that slow the process down? How would you like to just do a wipe-out on it? We have to be very careful.

Now, the very back row, plus the six people standing back there—please stand, the back row, if you will. We’ve added one more. Back row, do you mind standing for me? Alright.

Now I’ll tell you what we have. On this side, those folks represent diesel oil. I’m sorry about that. You’ll need to bathe when you go home. This is diesel oil. But even so, we’re going to compose the ones on my left. That’s cow manure. (chuckle) And you’ll need to clean up when you go home.

What we need to do is to begin to break down those materials in order…they’re a carbon source. They feed—that’s food here. But do you want to know something? In the case of diesel oil, you have enough indigenous molecules in your diesel oil to break it down and convert it to glucose which is the fuel to fuel that cell. You can do it. It will take a while—18 to 20 years—but they’re there. It’s a carbon source. It was a hydrocarbon. It was created with indigenous microbes in it.

Now, my dear friends on this side. The cow manure composts much more rapidly. We may be using amylase, cellulase, whatever these particular choices are that we pull out of the amino acid proteinates. They will not take 18 to 20 years. But do you know a quick solution? (Thank you for standing for me. You can sit down.)

What I am going to suggest here is that if we could multiply the number of microorganisms from one to one billion in 24 hours, would it be possible that little bit at a time, but each one working—would it be possible that we could digest diesel oil in 18 to 20 days instead of 18 to 20 years? Yes.

If the circumstances were exactly right you might even do it in 18 to 20 hours. Oh, does that change remediation?

Now if it is going to do that with diesel oil, what in the world would it do with cow manure? Et al, the rest of it. Now, do you see? We can overcome stress in several ways, and one of them is to1) allow this to work, and 2) see if we can’t make it work more rapidly. In doing that, what we’re doing is converting any carbon source you have. Please let me tell you today what is available to you for carbon source is what you need to use.

Do you have a crop that can be plowed under? Do you have fish mulch? Do you have (Leonardite?) Do you have—whatever you have. I don’t care if it’s hay that’s three or four years old, or even straw. There is a carbon value there which will feed the microorganism—this little factory—it will feed them, and it will generate the energy to make it do all of its other things, and within these options of some 3,000 different choices on the amino acid proteinate enzymes times all of the moleculres, you can have restoration of your soil, and another interesting thing. What if this happened to be representing rather than bacterium, a cell in a plant. Now we’re on a new ballgame.

What if we had a choice of an enzyme that would trigger all of the plant’s natural hormones? You don’t have to introduce anymore. You don’t have to buy more. The (geveraleez?), the (apshuns?), the (cytokins?). All of those can be simulated so that this cell elongation, cell development, cell strength can all develop more rapidly because (turn tape here)

…but you can bring it up to its potential. Think like a tomato, come to your potential. Twelve feet high, 14 feet wide, 709 of them on one plant. That was its potential. We did not grow a cypress tree. We did not end up with a cow. We still had a tomato plant growing to its potential and its potential surprised us, but we had never allowed it to happen before. Some arsonist was getting in there before and stymieing the growth or development or multiplication of the potential. That is what I want us to be very aware of before we go too much further.

Okay. Let’s take a real quick look at a supposed enzyme and how it functions. The enzyme itself is waiting with its surface to attack or be attracted to, or come to a substrate or a material. It could be feed that you feed to your cattle. It could be food that is being broken down for the plant, but it’s going to do—you see, DNA, for some reason has a pretty good sense of what needs (to be) done next. That’s why, in remediation, it can say, “okay, I’ll tell you what we’re going to do. We’re going to do this and this and this, and we’re going to do it at 400,000 hits a second,” and the RNA comes in and says, “we’re the on switch. We’re behind you. We’re going to make it happen. We’re driving it home.”

So, it connects with it, pulls it together and says in that one 400,000 times a second, it grabs it, turns it loose. But look at what our modification may well be. Looky here. We have reshaped it and then, the second it turns loose it’s free and it begins to do it again. Just keeps doing it. You know why you can go, in many cases, to an increase of food digestion with livestock? It’s helping break it down so when it’s in the bug it can be absorbed and taken in as food into the blood—energy. But it does that with your plants. It does it in your body. Incredible.

Alright, you’ve seen this before. The nitrogen cycle in nature. Remember where we had three main things, and a total of 12 trace minerals that you need in there? Alright, we’re going to have plant growth. We’re going to have the ingestion of the food and vegetables we raise. We’re going to have nitrogen fixing bacteria, the decay that goes on. We’re going to pull in atmosphere nitrogen. Might come in from lightening. We’re going to have de-nitrofying bacteria involved. We have our nitrates, our nitrites. You’re going to become involved in waste. Ammonia nitrofying bacteria doing their jobs. Okay.

The only other thing that I would suggest is that you look at it in a little more natural setting. Only thing is, it’s hard to read backwards.

Alright, nitrogen cycle, several bacteria are at work. Nitrogen fixing bacteria reduce nitrogen gas, ambient air into nitrofying bacteria which include both nitrite producing and nitrate producing bacteria convert ammonium NH4 to nitrate and the denitrofying bacteria convert nitrate back to nitrogen gas. Humans contribute to the cycle by using nitrogen gas to produce nitrates for fertilizers.

That’s where we get into this whole cycle of N. Do we need N? Yeah. Don’t ever let anyone kid you. You bet you do! Then why is it that we would have such a hassle over excess N or excess phosphorous. Why do they become angry about washing down a stream and killing fish, or going into the water table and making people sick? Anything in excess—I love chocolate. German chocolate cake, but what I can’t do is eat five of them a day. I’m going to lose my appetite and it becomes toxic. That’s a polite way of saying it.

So what we need to do then is say, “Okay, if too much is there how do we get rid of it?” That’s been the $64 dollar question. Anyway, $64 million dollar question. What do you with it in excess. I’m writing an article now for a medical journal in England relative to nitrogen surplus to the point of toxicity, hazardous waste, and phosphorous in excess from agricultural purposes, and what to do about it.

Now watch. When everything is in order we never had the excess problem did we? But what if you start putting stress on and dumping so much in that it becomes a problem? Now what do we do with it? We end up dumping an inorganic material that the plant can’t take up until processed. You have to have a amino acid proteinate bond to that particle before it’s absorbable and usable by the plant, or by the animal.

I want to tell you something today. This little puppy is going to do its best to pull it all in and balance it. And any other contaminant you have. I don’t care if it’s diesel oil, benzene, the 22 (apelisted?) solvents are that the EPA or OSHA wouldn’t like. It all can be solved microbially, but it has to work at its own speed. Remember the people who stood up on this side in the back? My diesel friends. Eighteen to 20 years. I have two options. Give them the time to do their thing or, I have to give them more exposure so that more of them are doing a little bit. Tough things take a while. Then you need a bigger army to come in and do a little bit—all of them doing a little bit.

What if I just have to wait? Or is there a way to actually capture some of these options over here that are functioning at somewhere in the neighborhood of 3,000 times—amino acid proteinate, get it up so you can see it—3,000 different kinds of molecules—different kinds of enzymes?

Okay, now we’re getting to a real interesting subject. What if we can go to the building blocks and handpick some of these—handpick some of these. Handpick one of these and about 10 of those. Could we start to make things happen? Yeah, you can. What we have called it is a biostimulant. All we did was found a selected way to pick what you need of these to stimulate these, and to do it by precise selection and to drive it home as hard and fast as you can drive it home so that you get that multiplication going as fast as you can.

That’s the key. What you want to do is take control of the destiny. If you can’t stop the stress then for goodness sakes, offset it by creating more answer, and you can create more answer for almost anything in this world that is out of balance, nature will balance it. Survival of the fittest. It wants to, it will, and it can.

The thing that made me get into this deeper and deeper, we started working with pig manure. Well, we started with chickens and dairy cattle and stuff. Then the tough one came.

I’ve got to tell you a little story real fast. Once upon a time I went to Illinois, and I was green relative to pig manure. They had me come in, and of course, they make you take all your clothes off. This is a very sacred thing. You have to take a shower and then you put their clothes on. You walk in and after you have done your observation and decide what you are going to suggest in the consulting of what might work, you have the privilege of going back out, taking a shower, shampoo your hair, and put your own clothes on and now you can go home.

Well, that should be a positive situation except for one thing. Pig manure penetrates, and it’s possible that your skin and your hair could smell for three days. I did a dumb trick and it was a warm summer day. I jumped back into a rent-a-car and I head for the Chicago airport. I didn’t understand, because the circumstances had improved for me. The hog pen smelled way worse than I did, and so I didn’t know I had a problem until I walked up to the airline ticket area, and there is a line of people, but the lady behind me was a good three feet behind. I may not be attractive, but I didn’t know I was that offensive. But I look back and she has her blouse like this. We get on the airplane and the strange thing was, it had a mechanical failure and they were fixing an instrument on the panel. On that instrument it took probably 20 or 30 minutes, or to me it was 30 hours. I had no friends. No one spoke to me. They had no air conditioning on the plane. I had a book, and I did study hard. I don’t even know who was to my left or my right.

Do you know, how the principal works to reduce that? Let’s say that we had a lagoon with pig manure in it. Well, can’t find what I want, so we’ll make one. So we have a lagoon here. Here’s the sludge on the bottom. Now I’ll initial this and it will be for sale when we’re done.

The sludge on the bottom is always anaerobic. It doesn’t use oxygen to break down. But, what’s difficult with that is, anaerobic always is going to give off a negative, odorous gas. It can be hydrogen sulfide. It can be ammonia. It can be methane. I want to tell you something, it do move! And the neighbors file lawsuits, because the value of their property went down.

But watch, and this will tie back into plants, and it will tie back into even your own good health. What’s happening here—what we want to do is stimulate this little puppy. We want to stimulate it really fast. We’ve got to get some fuel in there and get all these choices going so that we end up with a whole bunch of them really fast so it will do its thing.

Okay, because we want to make a carbon source out of the sludge in the bottom. That’s fine, but then I decided up on the top what I want to do is not go the bug route. I want to go the plant route, so I stimulate the microorganisms on the plant side, because what does plant give off? Oxygen. Lots of oxygen. In fact, you can give off enough oxygen if you make those little puppies hatch fast enough—you can give off enough—

Remember something about oxygen. Oxygen has a free radical molecule and it is anxious to attach to whatever it can attach to. In fact, if it takes a piece of iron it’s anxious and it bonds. You have an acceptor donor perfection, and we have rust. It oxidizes. Same thing happens when I have methane gas going up. I have this beautiful scrubber, oxygen saturated layer on the top. Free radical molecules looking for something to do and something to attach to. So when it attaches to a methane gas molecule what do I have? CO2. What is the odor?

What happens to ammonia if I can attach a free radical molecule of oxygen? CO2.

What happens over here to hydrogen sulfide? A little different. It causes the bonding of two hydrogen molecules plus O. H20. I have increased my water. I have gassed off carbon dioxide and I have very little if any manure left, because we just burned it. We made glucose out of it to have more babies. And it keeps going until you run out of carbon source. That’s a nice way to handle pig manure.

This isn’t a sales presentation. Didn’t mean to get into that, but once upon a time we did have a group in Iowa. It was a co-op, and they did kind of a strange thing. They called me one day. I’m going to paraphrase this. What they said, as I remember was, did you say our pig manure is composted?

I said yes.

Can we put it on the ground?

Yes.

Can we put 4,000 gallons on the ground?

Well, then could we put 8000 gallons on the ground and not burn the ground?

It’s composted? You’ve been treating it?

Yes.

Then you can put it on there, but you better check with the department of natural resources because the DNR may not want you to put that much on. It could be against the law according to legislature’s vote.

They said, Well, we have another question. Could we put it on the crop?

I said, Absolutely not.

Why not?

We’ve never tried that.

Then, they started to laugh. They were on a conference call on a speaker phone. I said, “what’s the problem?”

They said, “can we put 8000 gallons on the crop?

I said, “No., no, no”

They said, “Well, we already did.”

I said, “What was the problem?”

No problem.

Now watch. This is after they had put that on soybeans. Soybeans have a fuzzy leaf and it held it, and it did go into shock for several days, but it didn’t destroy it and they harvested it with no problem.

Well, then they said, “we have pictures of our corn. Would you like to come down and look at our corn that we put 8000 gallons on?”

I said, “Take pictures.”

They said, “Well, will you come now to Iowa and talk to the Department of Natural Resources?”

I said, “You better really document things and get some soil samples, and a few other things, because I smell trouble coming.”

Two weeks later they called and they said, “Do you think we could put 4000 gallons?”

I said, “Wait a minute.”

“Yeah, on our crop. Then could we do 8000 gallons?”

“What do you want to put it on?”

“Same thing we did before. Same crop.”

“I said what are you trying to do?”

“See what it takes to kill it.”

Now this is kind of ridiculous, isn’t it? But they had been using the bio-stimulant to cause—and if you can find stimulants of your own—I’m not trying to sell you anything. I’m just telling you what can be done. All you have to do is find out what 3000 choices to make. Get your DNA in there. Get the RNA in there and get the building blocks in there, and you can make it happen fast. It’s a simple thing. And the other thing is you must have a carbon source, and it doesn’t take a whole lot.

Sometimes people have put tons of compost on. I commend you. I do feel sorry for how far you might have to haul it. I suggest when you are putting 100 to 200 pounds of something else on that’s more concentrated, you’re making progress.

Don’t try diesel oil. It takes too long. But what you can do is make them multiply and feed them and they will do the work for you.

Well, very quickly, let me tell you of one situation. I won’t tell you his name, but I may have him stand up. Dale are you here? You know which Dale I’m talking to. There he is right back there.

Well, Dale is a brave soul. Good friend of mine. Sometimes when I do brainstorming he takes me more seriously than he should. He has 1,000-1,200 acres of his own. He also raises sow start-to-finish operation with hogs in Kansas and he said one day, “I’m doing an experiment.”

I said, “What?”

He said, “I just hooked up my swine lagoon to my sprinkling circle. I run 20% manure/80% water and I’m irrigating with it.

“Dale, are you sure the thing is composted?”

“Yep. Working fine. Every time I water I just pump my lagoon.”

Everything went well, and I’m pleased to report that that was okay. Until one day—one day, the way the story goes, Dale experienced a lightening storm sometime in the night that shorted out the motor on the circle—the big water pump. Those of you who are familiar with that know that that pump which clicks along because it has water running through it stopped, but the pig manure pump didn’t stop, and Dale was spraying right on top of his soy beans and I don’t know if back a ways you can see, but it flat out burned them. You know how much pig manure? 14 hours. 336,000 gallons on an acre and a half. That is approximately and a little over 5 gallons per square foot with .27 pounds of N in every square foot.

That should wipe it out for the next 10 to 20 years, shouldn’t it? I would hope nature has some answer in 20 years. But, they look pretty scrubby, don’t they? Leaves turned black. We had headaches for a few days. We called the department of natural resources out and they said, “Dale, it doesn’t smell, doesn’t appear to have run-off. What we want you to do is take a soil sample and bring it back in.

Dale brings a soil sample back in and they say, apparently no problem. Wendell Bachman and myself said, “Dale, something is wrong. It went somewhere. You can’t put that much pig manure on an acre and a half. “ How did we figure an acre and a half? 1330 feet long on the line, spraying 45-50 feet out. You figure the math and you figure how much you’re getting on an acre. It’s about 225,000 gallons to an are of raw manure. It had been composted, though.

Now, this is kind of an interesting thing. It is a mess, I’ll agree, but within a week we not only had the burned ones greening up, but we had brand new leaves and shoots coming up, and the final harvest—and I don’t know if you are familiar with soybeans—when I first saw this someone looked over my shoulder and said, “Oh that’s terrible. It went from bad to worse.”

But if you’re familiar with the soybeans, you’ll know they have to dry out lose leaves in order to combine. So I went out and rode the combine with Dale while we harvested this. We took the material, beans and had those analyzed for any excess. No problem there.

Wendell and I told him, if it went somewhere you better do a soil analysis down two feet, three feet. You better find it. It went somewhere. Alright, you all thinking like a microorganism now?

If you had not quickly developed enough demand for the microorganisms the demand for nitrogen and phosphorous, etc. we’d be in a world of hurt. He had a good field. It stunted the growth, but the beans went from the very tippy top as heavy as you have ever seen, clear to the ground.

Look here. You can get by with an excess relieving stress. This is one of the five examples I’m using in the medical article that there are answers. We can balance them.

Alright, very quickly. According to USDA studies on microbial and earthworm castings, do you understand that nitrate increases 500%? No my study. I’ll be doing some, and I think I can beat their study. Available phosphorous 700%. Exchangeable potassium 1200%. Don’t want to cheat you. Exchangeable calcium 150% Organic carbon 200%. Available magnesium 200%, and this is organically usable. It’s available.

Why would you buy inorganic salts that have to be processed and gone through the little machine—the factory—in order to add on amino acid proteinate to it to even be acceptable to the plant. Why would you add all of that on there if you jolly well don’t need it? Don’t be the one brave soul that has an answer because I don’t want to hear it. It’s just a question.

Now I’m going to propose something to you. This is not true, what I’m going to tell you. It is a hypothesis. It’s only a theory. I want 10 years to prove it, but I will be working on proving it.

Is it possible that when we put N in organic salt form on a field, is it possible that two things happen? It was an electrolyte. That was beneficial. And with the electric energy in the cell.

Second, is it possible that the denitrofying bacteria had to come in to salvage your gooky mistake? In doing that, it was very busy and it had to poop, and the plant liked the poop and it liked the electrolyte, even though it was a low grade electrolyte—a lesser grade.

You see what I’m trying to say to you? Just think about it. I want you to do me a favor. Watch in the next five years. If you can see. You know what we do? Drew Higher(?) here helps raise tomatoes in the Modesto, Madeiro, Freso area. You know what he told the people that were doing really well at 30 ton to an acre? He said, “I’ll tell you what I’m challenging you to do. Cut your N in half and let’s see what we can do by adding more carbon source and they went up over two years to 60 ton to the acre. Then he kept saying, “you know what we can do? We can cut it in half again.” Now we’re down to 25%. Gutsy move, because what if they had lost the crop?

You know what it was last year putting the biostimular on it? The selected things from the protein choices and the DNA, RNA, and the building block. You know what it went up to? Seventy-four tons to an acre. Is that bottom line beneficial? I think so.

Alright, one quick, quick, announcement then I just want to ease it up and walk out.

Some of you have been by the foundation booth, and since they support me so well, I need to give them a plug. For master gardener, they are asked to put two products together—a biostimulant, and liquid compost.

Biostimulant, one quart to an acre makes them grow like crazy. Liquid compost, we did something that if you have a situation where you don’t have carbon—I’m telling you, whatever you have, keep using it. You’re a good steward. Use your manure, use your composite, whatever. But if you get into a situation and you don’t have any then I would suggest that something like liquid compost is beneficial. One gallon to an acre is (end of tape)
