Hey, anybody doing high brix gardening?
Specifically I want to know if anyone has modified the TLO style or maybe subcool's or similar organic soil and applied the high brix stuff to it. Which in my sorta limited understanding seems like you would need to add a foliar feeding regiment and carbs? Sugars? Maybe add same to my tea's too? Already have molasses in my teas. Then I guess the only way to know its working, ( outside of having even danker bud!) would be to buy a refractometer.

Anybody experienced here?? Interesting sounding gardening concept. They have been doing this with organic outdoor veggies for a long time and they taste better and are way more nutrient dense, and actually heavier...

I wanna try and take it to another level in my own garden... The reason for this thread...
Thanks...

I have decided to experiment with this on my next run.

I have been reading a lot on subject. I think my current TLO setup could be improved by the addition of a foliar feeding regiment.

So what to feed the leaves?

I think I will do a simple 1 day bubbled EWC tea with some molasses and pure water.
Then I will strain and dilute 10:1 with pure water.
(I have a worm farm and fresh castings available)

Apparently the same microbes in ACT's that are super beneficial in the root zone, are also very beneficial when sprayed on the leaves.

Ill try and keep this thread going.

Chime in.
