.The lower the temperature, the smaller the bubbles
will be. This is because low-temperature-loving mi-
crobes are smaller in size.

. When these small bubbles form a round foam and
the edges of the foam are clear, the cultivation is com-
pleted.
Culturing at ambient temperature

Just think of how we made wine in the past. Rice, barley, wheat,
potato and
sweet potato could all be used as ingredients. JADAM has tested these and
whole range of other material as medium. JADAM’s conclusion is that po-
tato is the best medium. You can get it anywhere in the world. Cook pota-
toes, add sea salt and feed the microorganisms.
Sweet potatoes are also
good. Next, I recommend brown rice with mixed grains. It helps to add
local wild grass or parts of crop after chopping them into ine particles. is
method of using cooked potatoes or sweet potatoes or mixed grains keeps
the end solution at around pH 6.5 unlike sugar or molasses that turn the
solution into strong acid. pH 6.5 is best for the soil. is
JADAM microor-
ganism solution (JMS) will solve almost all soil problems.
e purpose of culturing microorganisms is to beneit the crops. It is best
to culture them at the temperature condition same as the crops. A plant will
experience all sorts of ups and downs in temperature during its growth.
at is the environment we want to grow our microorganisms. However,
microorganism manufacturers, their agents and “experts” say you have to
keep it at 32
℃
(89.6

). Maintaining that
uniform temperature actually
does produce more foam and decomposes faster; but the microorganisms
you get are not as suitable.
After bubbles hit their peak, they will gradually
calm down as the mi-

croorganisms start to die. The size of an individual bubble and the vigor of
foam production will differ according to temperature. This is so because
microbes that propagate in lower temperatures are generally smaller in
size. Your JMS might display small and weak foam, but it does not mean
that you failed. As microbes start to die, the circular shape of foam will
start to crumble and bubbles will die down. The best time for use is when
the circular foam is at its peak. This state lasts approx. 12 hours so it
won’t be too difficult to recognize, particularly after a few tries. Com-
pletely use it up at the optimum period and then start culturing again.
Do not leave any quantity unused as it can start smelling bad and attract
mosquito larvae. If you missed the optimum period of use, dilute 10
times with water and use as liquid fertilizer.
At the peak-bubble period, the number of microorganisms reaches 1 bil-
lion per 1 ml. So if you made it with a 500 L (132 gal) container, you
would effectively have produced yourself 1,000 bottles of microorganism
products equivalent to the market-sold ones. at is a lot. 500 L (132 gal)
of solution can be applied to an area of 0.1 to 3.3 ha (0.25 to 8.2 acres). If
you apply JMS
undiluted during plant growth, it can radically increase the
microorganism population of soil and damage the roots. Dilute with over
10 times of water for use. Apply JMS before transplanting of seedlings and
before lowering of fruit trees.
On top of this JMS, add sea water/salt, phyl-
lite solution and wild grass liquid fertilizer; use this continuously 3-4 times
a month. Phyllite solution can be made separately and added when apply-
ing JMS, but you can also put the rock powder in a bag (1 kg for 500 L,
2.2 lb for 132 gal) and hang it on the JMS-culturing container. Replace
phyllite after using 2-3 times.
Soil foundation work using JMS before transplanting
and before lower-
ing/sprouting is the most important technology in the JADAM organic
farming system. Apply abundantly so that microorganisms and nutrients
reach deep into the soil. is is crucial in inducing strong root settlement
after transplanting and lowering/sprouting. is
leads directly to high
yield. For greenhouses where rainwater does not fall, repeat applying JMS
with irrigation water, wetting the soil fully every time. For open ields, apply

JADAM Organic Farming
JMS before rain, then microbes will reach into deep parts of the soil with
rainwater. During the entire growth period, apply JMS to soil every time
you water; supplement with foliar application. Your soil will change com-
pletely. JADAM soil foundation will solve the problems of nematodes, wilt
and virus diseases which are all notoriously hard to cure. Making soil mi-
croorganisms active will suppress particular pathogens from taking over. Ac-
tive soil microorganisms also raise the soil temperature; you will have less
chill and freezing damages; you can have an early harvest. Increased diversity
in microbes means increased diversity in nutrients for plants. e process is
bolstered by sea water/sea salt with its 83 identiied minerals. Contaminants
in the soil are broken down by the microbes; roots settle well and plants be-
come healthy. High yield and high quality is then no coincidence.
If you use air pump for culturing microbes, it produces too much foam
and you cannot judge which period is the best for use. Do away with
these machines; just cover the lid and let nature do her wonders. The mi-
crobes known to help farming – photosynthesis bacteria, lactic acid and
yeast – are all anaerobic. Why would you want to pump oxygen into the
solution with an air pump? It is important to use the JMS at peak-bubble
period because when there is little foam the number of microbes are more
than 10,000 times smaller. Microorganism is all about battle of numbers.
To defeat soil pathogens, you need numbers to fight them. Always use
JMS at its peak-bubble period.
