i used yogurt one time in compost, i think it helped personally, just dont go crazy with it, im sure it has a nice amount of beneficial micro bacteria
 
Interesting thought...i can dig it. Milks one of the best things for the human body...i can see it at least being somewhat benificial to a plant. Keep us updated

thats what i was thinking :D
lol nice avatar +rep
Earths Widdler- i believe in milk especially during late bud/flush. my theory is that the flushing is removing calcium that the plants need to stop buds from molding, as well as feeding a micro-herd thats working on overtime to produce nutes that the plant is using so much of. dont get me wrong, with any chemical nutes during bloom, I FLUSH.

thanks for the help!

just in case anyone was interested i asked an extremely knowledgeable member if he knew anything about Lacto Bacillus Cultures and this was his reply :D

Yogurt instead of milk?

the yogurt im talking about is REAL organic yogurt.. not the gelatin and artificial flavor kind.
ingredients-
organic skim milk
organic skim milk powder
active bacteria cultures-
Lactobacillus acidophilis, bifidobacteria, Lactobacillus paracasei

dosage-
im thinking i would use it the same as milk, 1 tbsp/gallon for root watering and keeping compost damp.

thanks!





this is a quoted from Heisenberg's "
How to breed your own beneficial microbes" and i give him all the credit :P

"Lactobacillus is an excellent strain to have for breaking down compost, indeed one of the best. It has a reputation for breaking down organics without producing a terrible smell. I don't think we have much use for it in a synthetic solution. "


The most useful is Lacto bacillus. This microorganism is the workhorse of the human digestive system (though luckily it is also found elsewhere). On the farm it’s used for similar tasks of digestion, something Dierks was relieved to hear last winter after the NOP had mandated that all manure be fully broken down before use. He applied his L. bacillus culture to the mound of manure beside his field, and the composting was faster than ever. Similarly, when sprayed on plants, L. bacilli will digest the biomass on the leaves and stems—dust, for instance, or mud—thus making that free food available to its host.

Lactic acid bacteria is also known to produce enzymes and natural antibiotics aiding effective digestion and has antibacterial properties, including control of salmonella and e. coli. To farmers, what are observed are the general health of the plants and animals, better nutrient assimilation, feed conversion and certain toxins eliminations.

Have any of you used EM1 or SCD Bio Ag?

EM1 stands for Efficient Micro Organisms www.terraganix.com

Bio Ag is a more agricultural version of EM1 with more phototrophic PnsB (Purple non-sulfur Bacteria)
www.scdprobiotics.com

Of course there is Lacto Bacillus in there, more than a few different Lacto strains, the PnsB and more.

The nice thing is, both are concentrates and can be expanded to 20x the amount.

Check out the websites for more info, there is just too much to re type.

Good stuff.
