Ahah, by the way they have amulets as well, but they are to "enhance your magnetic field", I don't know if they work on plants as well
To me the ceramics might be not as bad as you say... Ok, it sounds science fiction to me as well, but the pipes are not too pricey, if I buy and see calcar goes away or water TDS decreases, they might be a good buy... at least until you don't discover that maybe normal ceramics works as well and you are paying 10 times the price for that!
I would like to understand though if EM-plus can be actived and drunk... I've understood you can do it with EM-farming, they basically don't promote that aspect as they would have to apply for that in Europe, but they say as well that in other countries people have drunk it for 20 years and no critical effect has yet shown up.
I really don't know whether maybe I could just buy the normal version, the EM-plus is rated as more effective in other fields, but not in farming... Microbeman said though that PNSBs are the shit, any suggestion?

Hey, I haven't tried drinking the EM yet.

Also the PDF on that website actually has the recipe for AYE in it!

Regular em is fine to drink but they can't talk about it or the FDA standards must be met.

I saw an interesting recipe for a salad dressing made with em.

SCD also has a product called 'Bio-Ag' which they sell for $29.99 for 1 gallon which is a bit less than buying 1 quart.

hey, anything is possible, I suggest reading the secret life of plants and you might start thinking a little different, well an easier way is to puff on a joint also..

anything is possible, and I think that way from many things, but take rudolf steiner and his ideas..

the power of intention has proven me powerful and unbelievable. check this, I once wrote when I was going through a full ride scholarship program, we had to write what we would want for the future, I wrote to the extent, " everywhere I go, if I see something I like, I'll have the money to buy it " well six years later and that came true... my GF wanted to do reiki once and said I don't believe in that shit, well I went to prove her wrong and when it was done it felt like someone knocked me out, and this person was just running there hands over my body not touching me as I thought it was pressure points... well all I can say it was crazy shit and to tell people to give it a try, and then judge it

my brother once said, how does that secret thingy work, I said, hell I don't know, just think something and it will be that way, so he said, I don't believe in it, and I said back, well you got what you wanted..

keep an open mind and I think it will take humans further then the shit hole were in now. what's wrong with giving it a try, I guess if you try then you can say for sure if it works or not.


now back on topic, doesn't microbeman drink this stuff? and who's the next guinea pig, I want to give it to my dog, but with it's severe allergies I'm not wanting to rush the dog to the doctor saying" I use this shit on my plants and it works, and I heard it would help humans and dogs so I gave it to her....... " man would the doctor be having a laugh





here's from that EM-1 page on drinking it :

"I have learned from correspondents in Japan that there are "EM shops" in many towns and cities, and the main reason they exist is not just to sell folks EM for household use (flowers, gardens toilets, plants, waste, compost, shower stalls) or for use in building construction (concrete, plaster, wood, etc.) or for agricultural use (remember, Japan is a very crowded country -- most folks and EM shop customers live in cities), but rather, they sell the stuff (EM1, EM Ceramic powder, EM Ceramic shapes) for human consumption!

As noted above, the practice of drinking EM Extension and related beverages seems quite common in the USA (although officially discouraged by the EM organization here in the USA) and in Japan, and folks in Japan are actually given guidelines on how to do this by their local EM shops. Folks who drink this stuff seem to feel that it yields any of several healthful effects, and view it as a "health beverage", loaded with antioxidants and other vital nutrients.

A lot of the folks in Japan (mentioned above) -- following recipes given them by the EM shops -- brew their EM Extension in 2 liter soda/water bottles (those clear PET bottles) with some added salt (actually, quite a bit of salt -- 1 teaspoon per 2 liters, far more than I use here....), and then brew it in sunlight, as opposed to brewing in the dark (the way we usually do it in the USA). Some of these folks brew new bottles of EM Extension constantly, some with bottles on literally every windowsill in their home.... and drink it almost like water, as a "health drink". The local EM shops apparently give them full directions for doing this, and also share favorite recipes.... One thing my correspondent told me which fascinated me was this: "

didnt read the whole thread, but one of the prime ingredients lactobacillus is present in decent amounts when say making sourmash whiskey, what do you think makes the mash sour

so composting some of the dredges, say the spent grain/corn your using that floats to the top when doing sour mashes for distillation, would provide a pretty decent amount of lactobacillus.


Just have to be making sourmash whiskeys for it to be worth while to do, or really interested in producing your own beneficial bacteria.

Absolutely NOT!

The only reason that I posted the deal about EM's Bio-Ag is that it's a good value. I use this product weekly (religiously) on all of my plants, i.e. veg and flower cycles.

It works as well as it's advertised. One of the few products that can make that claim.

You'll do well with either product. If you opt for the product you mentioned then you might want to look at making 'AEM' (Activated EM) which will lessen the financial deal - big time.
