if I feed a guano tea every two weeks, the week in between, is that when I give it a castings tea with kelp meal and molasses? I fed the ladies a worm tea earlier this week and it didnt foam up after 24hrs. could it be I need a stronger air pump? I have a 5-15 gal pump and one of them small airstones from walmart attached. my guano tea foamed up real nice though. :blsmoke:

Im a little confused. The whole every watering is a compost tea? I thought u had to leach the soil every once in a while? Im not questioning your intelligence, but im very new to this making tea thing and the whole being able to read the plants and know when they need to eat.

No matter what you do don't forget to add some wood ash into your tea. It contains essentioal organic potassium whitch helps plants thrive and fight stress.

You only have to flush soil if you’re using heavy Nutes (10-10-10 or higher) or see nutrient deficiencies. Organic soil and Nutes eliminate this problem.

I was reading about biochar, here on RIU and it was saying when wood is burnt it lets off some radioactive material so im gonna stay away from that. I have Meta-K and some potassium powder. Its 0-0-50 from ebay. It says its organic? It cant be with then numbers, can it? There was the same stuff for hydro systems too so maybe. I dont know...
