I was reading about making compost tea, and a blog recommended culturing the compost on oat flour for 3-7 days in order to grow out the fungus in the compost before brewing it. With goal of creating a more fungal dominant tea. That got me wondering whether the same can be done to collect IMO1.
I go on a lot of hikes in forested areas an hour or more of a drive away. Instead of setting up a collection box and then returning later, is it viable to do a soil collection and then culture it back at home?
So essentially instead of prepping rice, leaving it in the woods, and then collecting it later, could I collect the soil (like I might do for JMS) and then add it to rice at home to culture it?
I’m a novice with Jadam and knf, so very much still learning.
