I've been relying only on teas and ammendments for this past grow, and so far all is well. I have been feeding aerobic bacterial teas from ewc/kelp/molasses/guano but I'm getting into flowering now and I thought I had read you must a fungal tea about halfway on in flowering for best results.
From what I've gathering from Teaming With Microbes (real lean on the info, imo) fungus will make Phosphorus more available, while leaving Nitrogen as Ammonium instead of converting them into Nitrates.
Here's my question, do my plants want their N to be in ammonia form during the back end of the bud cycle? Are fungal teas going to make P more available? I have some Myco, would it help to add in at the end of the brew cycle? Or is it best to prewet some mushroom compost with some oats in water for a few days, then add that in and brew for 24-48 hours? Also, I got rid of my Humic Acid when i threw out most all my bottles trying to go totally organic, but it seems like it may help with the fungal count in the tea. Should I get some more, and if so, any recommendations on something that'll do a good job. Let me know if I'm not making sense or I'm way off base...
