sweet bro sounds like a plan man.sorry i didnt know your plants were this far along.Idda had ya hit them earlier.but its all good.yer gone be happy with the preformance imo.
but all ya need for a standard basic tea is EWC,cow or mushie compost.or anyone of the three stand along as well.but in essence all you really need is a decent composted materials that are based on a nicel green and browns compost that has been hot composted.
fish fert or molasses or both. and thats it essentially.guanos,big bloom,azomite,alfalfa ,kelp n all the others are boosters for the tea and makes it more rounded then ya tailor some for bloom n such n we gonna be all good.
good to know ya got some guano too.they'll come in handy before long.

The store was not very helpful but here's what I picked up:
Big Bloom (I could only afford the 32 oz)
a HUGE bag of local castings (28 lbs for $16)
2 small bags of Black Cow composted manure
So, knowing what I have can you suggest the amounts of each that I should add to a 1 gallon tea? Also should I cut the tea when it's finished or just give it to em full strength?

Ok I might have misled you. It's store bought pre-cooked but I just bought it so that's why I said fresh lol

A Tea
Well there are a couple way to go actually.since Im VERY familiar with this soil you can feed at full on strength but if your worried about it at all just use it after the 1 gallon is done brewing then cut with another 1/2 gallon with your cal mag n big bloom.no worries.it'll be fine man.
I would use 1/3-1/2 cup compost
1/4-1/3 cup Castings
1 teaspoon azomite or 2 teaspoon kelp or 1.5 of GRD once you get some.
2 ounces fish ferts OR..1-1.5 oz. fish then 0.5-1.0 ounce of molasses
45-55 cc of liquid kelp,roughly an ounce and a half
1 scoop of your Great White
then brew and make sure your chlorine is out of the water as ya know,but once done you can add 5 drops or there about of no more than 7-10 drops imo of cal mag per gallon.go with 5 and a 1/4 of Big bloom.never more than 1/2 cup at a time per gallon of tea of feed water at this time.
also you can add some rice wash water.once your chlorine is gone out of the water you can take a cpl quarts of so and soak about 1/2 cup to around 3/4 cup of white enriched rice to get them added carbs n enzyme builders and start your tea with rice wash water too.all goo things."AFN smoke out"

Excellent! I'll get that brewing here in a bit. I'll have the following on the way tomorrow:
Azomite
Alfalfa Meal
Kelp Meal
Bokashi
Insect Frass
The lady at Ace Hardware looked at me all shifty when I mentioned frass and starting suggesting stuff to grow hydro, lol.
edit: I'll check out kelp4less.com before I order anything from Amazon. Thanks swampman!

Id go with azomite or GRD over kelp meal personally.but to have both is good if you can swing it just since soil and brewed they do two different things as far as what is available to the plants and to what form too.also when you re amend your mixes after your grows its good to have the two as well.Frass goes a long way so a pound should do ya fine bro.also the bokashi you can get the all seasons or something local made if ya can find it and/or the EM-1 inoculate.both are excellent for teas too.yeah I think your gonna love this grow man.I sincerely hope so anywho lol :Sharing One::smoke:
im excited to help give ya a solid grow man!

And that seedling mix.I cut my stuff at 50% to start with and went upto about 60-65% again and it finally produced super healthy sprouts.and once you would normally feed them with a starter feed since the mix will work awesome but to boost it until it hits the soil is what your looking for.and i burned a few of my sprouts in the process too.lol this is less than 24 hours old and right about perfect imho.
