How to Apply KNF Solutions

In this video we are using a tractor to spray the microbes onto the ground to build soil foundation. This can be combined with formulas from the Nutrient Theory to feed the plants and the soil at the same time.

Here is a typical recipe and spray for foliar feeding of plants. Higher quality of microbes are used along with top shelf KNF Solutions. The biology we want to encourage to colonize the plants surface must be beneficial and supplying sufficient nutrients helps those populations to grow.

Ideally an orchard such as this papaya field should be sprayed weekly. Hand spraying is a bit tedious, and a machine is recommended.

HanKyu Cho on KNF Application and Use

Master CHO gave an impromptu lecture covering the subject of How-to use KNF Solutions one night in Muju County Korea.
