By Ben Klocek 2 min read

This new series is the result of several days spent with Dennis over 6 months, in which he shared how the plant sprays he uses affect growth, how to make them, and some tricks he’s learned along the way.

Video 1: Why Use Plant Sprays? Secrets to abundant oil, flower and fruit production in the garden.

Dennis takes us around his garden, sharing when, why and how he’s using plant sprays to increase the productivity of his medicinal plants.


Video 2: Making a Simple, Natural, Growth Hormone Plant Spray (AKA Rejuvelac and Coconut Water)

Dennis shows us how to create an effective natural growth hormone plant spray using ingredients easy to find at any grocery store.


Video 3: Advanced Plant Sprays

Dennis takes us deeper into creating plant sprays by fermenting the Basic Spray into a vinegar which can be used as the base for specialized sprays. Specialized sprays can be created for essential oil production, flower or fruit production, or even regulating growth patterns.


Video 4: Fermentation Q/A: Overview of Rejuvelac, Vinegar “Mothers”, Yeast, and Medicinal Fermentation

Dennis does a fermentation overview to answer some of the most frequent questions he gets about fermentation for plant sprays or medicinal tonics.

    Dear Dennis, very thankfull to see and hear from you. I am in a hard time. Last week, during my Parsifal trip with the teenagers from Brasília city, I fall down and had broken my femur and shoulder very badly. Now I am back home having very little possibilities to move by myself. See your videos, almost make me feel less pain and to work inside filling in my soul with gratitude and good memories from your lessons in the course Goethean Studies.
    I wish you very healthy.
    Whit my best wishes for you,
    Sincerely
    Cecilia Bonna
