Just add water
![]() Are you looking for more things to consider? Sea 90 or Pink Salt Yeast Boogie Brew open sources their recipe, https://www.boogiebrew.net/open-source-compost-tea/ It is good to buy extra meals to produce tea for feed/foliar throughout the cycle unless you are going super-soil and adding water only Most algae sources are a "complete food." It is easy to go nuts on various algae online from different oceans (red, brown, blue-green, green) If you live near a beach go collect free seaweed on the shore and compost that into a soil and that is all you will ever need. |

i just mix soil outside on a big tarp usually, half of this soil is recycled from my 100 gallon plant i grew last year.

(too bad no one raises indoor Ascophyllum nodosum kelp right?) Its funny you mentioned yeast, it was the first time i had seen it mentioned for gardening. Shortly after when i posted the picture of the soil on the tarp i remembered there was some green algae growing in it. So i looked up to see if it was harmful and came across an article on bio fertilizers like yeast and algae and the benefits.
