Heres the description of humtea, it's a norcal product and its supposed to kick ass, got this info from https://www.gardenspout.com/gs_bb.htm#ht

"Contains natural biocolonies of beneficial bacteria, fungi, and protozoa
Humtea increases availability of phosphorus and other macro and micro nutrients, phytohormones, and vitamins to meet critical, on time, plant needs
Defends against disease and promotes vigourous plant growth"

Hmm, it does sound good. But if all your doing is gonna use it to pre moiston ur mix, i'd save your money and just use plain water. But, do what u want. I'm sure a couple more people will have some comments on it, so hold back on ordering it. See what some other ICmagers have to say.

Humtea sounds like this stuff:

I think its just a tea-I would wager that could be brewed at home from ewc, compost, kelp and molasses. Maybe a touch of wheat flour for the fungi.

I know that a lot of work has gone into the tea, i talked to the micorbiologist (if thats the type of person who works on this stuff) who actually makes it, he seemed to think that it was some pretty bomb stuff, but of course, since he's makin it...the way he explained it to me was in the couch potatoe metaphor, he told me a lot of bacteria in teas are very lazy like a couch potatoe they sit around getting all these nutrients but not effecttivley using their energy, he told me that the bacteria in this humtea are like super fit bacteria...i dont know, could be crap, but it sounded good at the time...and my local hydro stuff moves this stuff like hot potatoes.

Transplanting from container into the ground should work without issues, just don't let the plant get rootbound.. the best time to transplant is in the evening (even better if the next day is overcast), be gentle, and eveything should go smoothly.

Because the only measure of truth he accepts is what he claims at any given moment, the power his supporters vest in him is unlimited. Sound familiar? If we must have an enemy at the head of Government, let it be one whom we can oppose, and for whom we are not responsible, who will not involve our party in the disgrace of his foolish and bad measures. In the United States, under our Constitution, a free press is a check on politicians of all parties. If we are to demand that other countries respect the tradition of a free press we must also practice that here at home. Let the people know the facts, and the country will be safe.
