1 of my Tea Recipes
This is one Recipe I like to use as a full on flower tea brew.depends what you have ofcourse but fish should be avoided the last several weeks of flower since it could possibly lend to a taste within the bud.but often a 3 week flush takes care of that.Guanos are excellent but if you dont have a buffering soil thats active you could be heading towards a headache,since Guanos run hot.so with them in flower with non buffering soils should be avoided or used at small doses.little pinches literally,maybe 1/4 teaspoon at most.I use Bone meal personally.
But molasses is always good.I like the vitastrap powdered blackstrap molasses 1:1 ratio.excellent for quality teas imo.but most any youll pick up at the store is fine.most come without anymore,so.
I often use a basic recipe such as for a ohhh,say 3 gallon mix, lets say..3 tablespoons Molasses.
I use filtered tap(Well water) water(no chlorine, bubble 24 hrs. if present) bubbled for an hour or so to raise levels of O2 and activate the O2 a lil more along with raising the PH lightly too.then I 'll blend in molasses/Honeys n such.then i add some organic liquid kelp and azomite with a cup of mushroom compost and cow compost(or EWC in place of cow at 1/2 cup). then i add my inoculate of your choosing.I recommend using atleast two multi spectrum inoculates(@ no more than 1-1.5 teaspoons total) with a decent endo spectrum too.the sprinkle that in while bubbling and honeys n molasses n stuff is added.then once its actually showing signs of building I add a Tbspoon or 1.5 Tablespoons of bonemeal or even 2 in some cases and sprinkle that over the top into the tea. then I take the tea bag with the composts and Azomite and insect frass(i feel that makes it the most well rounded for flower early to mid stage) and suspend that in the bubbles and a day er so. later it should be quite ready.depending on your bubble volume and intensity too.so shoot for 24 hours. But I used a recipe almost exactly like this and had the best grow of my life man.so if you have a TLO soil or similar ,Id bet that would give you a poppin Tea man and zero PH issues.if ya can help it never try to PH a finished tea unless its a heavy concentrate and your soil dont buffer well.
I personally like to add other stuff as well.but thats about sugars cabs n such.
3 gallon flower tea
Liquid kelp 60-90cc's or 2-3 ounces
1/2 cup EWC or 1 cup cow compost
1 cup mushroom compost
1-1.5 Tablespoons of azomite
Molasses or in combination with Organic Honey as well. add a total of 3-3.5 tablespoons
Bonemeal 1-1.5 Tablespooons
Inoculates you'll add not much more than 1/2 teaspoon to about a full rounded teaspoon.
and insect frass is tricky.Id only add about 1/4-1/2 cup.BUT if you need certain things such as a lil more N or Chitosan or whatever properties you desire for said plant(s) you can bust a move on about 1/2 cup PER gallon of waterr.BUT unless youve used the Frass and know it..dont use it unless for a soil drench er something.
and if you go without the guano you could add a slight small pinch of Humic acid to round things a lil.but again not needed.
and cal-mag:Id add some ground up eggshells dried out or just buy an organic cal mag supplement.Got any questions your welcome to PM me.could take a day er two to get to ya.I know brother Pig is Busy these days.but I brew a fair amount of teas and have multiple recipes I used for veg,concentrates,Transition as well and full bloom and flush hi cabs tea recipes I used.thats on my organic thread in indoor gardening.Hope that helps ya dude and take it easy..LOL!
