O.H.N.- Oriental Herbal Nutrient
Aloha friends back again to talk about OHN or Oriental Herbal Nutrients. What is an OHN? OHN is a fermented herbal extract which is alive with effective indigenous microorganisms beneficial for organic gardens. Why do we use OHN? One can use certain organic materials fermented down and then use them as nutrients and plant antibiotics for many diseases and even used as an organic pesticide. Neem oil is a type of OHN, Pest Out is a garlic based Over the Counter OHN, and I will focus for cannabis on using a garlic and coriander based OHN combination. Now remember OHN should be fed to the soil and used in a follicular feed regimen. There are many recipes, so here are some I find to have good effects. I was once told by a great farmer that a true organic farmer uses anything in ones environment to create what is needed. If you have a good healthy strong plant that is pest & disease resistant, one can adhere some of those characteristics and beneficial indigenous microorganisms through a fermenting process and then administered to create new plant antibiotics and sheens. Not to mention the waste off beneficial microorganisms is an ammoniacal nitrogen, again Root Excelarator. So here are some of the recipes I work with, but feel free to use ingredients that are in your environment.
