JADAM Organic Farming 
the elements that make up the earth are in the sea water; not only Mg, Ca, K
and P which are essential for crop growth but also other various minerals such
as I, Mn, Mo, Co, Se and Ge. About 100 million marine microorganisms live
in 1 mL of sea water. is makes it an excellent ingredient to mix with the
JADAM indigenous microorganism solution (JMS) which is bred from mi-
croorganisms collected from leaf mold. If you mix the two types of water to-
gether, then you essentially have all the diversity Earth has to offer: from the
land and from the sea. at could be why if you do a foliar application of JMS
and sea water, you have no more powdery mildew. Let us make good use of sea
water to ight the leaching of nutrients from our soil. Note that since sea water is
around 3% salt and the body luid of plants is around 1%, you must mix the sea
water with thirty to one hundred times more plain water. is is to prevent salt
damage to plants and accumulation of Na and Cl in soil. JADAM recommends
using 20 liters (5.28 gal) (or 600 grams (1.3 lb) of sea salt) for 0.1 ha (¼ ac). 
Mix sea water with JMS and continue applying it 3-4 times a month.
Using sea water not only supplements minerals leached out of the soil but also
improves sweetness, coloring, storing period and product value. If you look at
the sea water composition, it has plenty of S, Mg, Ca, K, B, P, I which are all
essential for crop growth. It even has Se and Ge which are known to be ex-
tremely beneicial. at is why JADAM strongly suggests the use of sea water
as mineral supplement for plants. Even the Korean National Institute of Agri-
cultural Sciences has conirmed the beneits of sea water and/or sea salt. It is
the sales agents of agricultural inputs that adamantly oppose the use of sea
water/salt. Beneits of sea water has been proven through history. Fields, rice
paddies and orchards by the sea were showered with sea water elements for
hundreds and thousands of years. ey produce better quality food than in-
land farms. What clearer an evidence?
However, take care not to apply sea water mixed with less than thirty times
water because then the salinity will be too strong which can damage some

crops. Do not sprinkle salt directly onto soil or spray undiluted sea water! Re-
member that good and bad are one. If a good were excessive, it will turn bad. If
you cannot obtain sea water, then sea salt can be used. 20 liters (5.28 gal) of sea
water is equal to around 500 grams (1.1 lb) of salt. Calculate your dilution ratio
based on this conversion. e salinity of sea water differs according to regions;
normally it is between 3.1-3.8%. It is generally accepted as sea water if the salt
concentration is above 1.7%.
ere is another ingredient that JADAM uses to supply mineral to the soil.
Use ine-powdered phyllite as min-
eral supplement. is rock contains
almost all inorganic nutrients re-
quired by plants. Use it together
with sea water and you will be sur-
prised. Phyllites are sold in powder
form and are inexpensive. Add 60
kg (132 lb) of phyllite powder to
500 L (132 gal) of water. Stir and
let it settle. Scoop out the upper
water for use. Reill the water when
you need. Use like so for one year.
JADAM calls this water “phyllite so-
lution.” In soil with serious mineral
leaches, directly sprinkle phyllite
powder to the soil (approx. 1 kg (2.2
lb) per 3.3 square meters (36 sq. ft.). 
Fauna and lora that once
lived all die and their bodies are
piled up. When pressure is ap-
plied they become sedimentary
JADAM encourages the use of phyllites to replenish
the soil of minerals
Put in 60 kg (132 lb) of phyllite and add water. Stir
and let sit for a few hours. Use the upper portion of
the water. Refill with water and repeat use. Use
throughout the year

rock. Higher pressure and temperature turn them into metamorphic rocks then
granites. Rocks made from the accumulation of organic matter contain materi-
als closest to the mineral requirements of plants. If phyllite is not available, use
other rock powders.
Humus soil is also beneicial. It helps to distinguish leaf mold soil, humus
soil and humic acid. Leaf mold soil is the soil we easily see under a pile of leaves
in the mountains. When leaf mold is exposed to microbial activity for tens of
thousands of years, it turns into humus soil. Because microorganism activity is
almost inished, humus soil will not generate any heat in soil. If humus soil is
further disintegrated, it turns into various humic acids. ese are much more
expensive than humus soil. e price of humus soil is not much different from
livestock manure so JADAM recommends the use of humus soil. Humus soil is
the optimum pure organic fertilizer with abundant minerals and organic nutri-
ents. In Korea, it is mined from ancient bogs. To use for fruits and vegetables, it
is more effective if some nitrogen is added.
To improve your soil quality and ight mineral leaching, use JMS, sea water
and phyllite solution every time you water. Your crops will show visible im-
provements in their growth and root settlement. Needless to say that the taste,
aroma and market value of the fruits will soar! Take caution because this is such
a powerful method that it can suddenly break down the insolubilized nutrients
in the soil and boost plant growth and produce water sprouts. It can also delay
fruits from ripening. So JADAM recommends this method to be used starting
from
