YS,
Something's chewing on your leaves. I will boldly guess beetles of some sort
Is that a Ficus aka #*&(*#@ Ficus?So...an old scrub tree outside my grow area. Years of suffering in shitty soil on the edge of a desert and a for real drought this spring. About 3/4 dead.
My dumb ass cannot seem to figure out how much tea to make exactly so I have just been dumping the excess on this tree. A couple of gallons of aloe, a comfrey tea, an alfalfa tea and a alfalfa/sea weed tea...not really that much of any...but

The new gowth looks kinda funny.
i see & understand but it wasnt to long ago every one was raving about doing the same thing with lavender but with out aeration..I think the logic in bubbling dehydrated meals is to hydrate them and to try to infuse the water with plant compounds, but you may be stirring some microbes into life along the way.

For those that use aloe Vera in act.
What is the intended purpose and what is your formula? I use the aloe Vera (cootz recipe) as a foilar for disease resistance.

It's proprietary - if I told you then I would have to kill you

I have, but not enough to notice anything. I ussualy add humic acid with just water. But I only add very small amounts, like a1/4 tsp per five gallon bucket of water, just enough to color the water like tea, now that i think about it, i dilute teas to the same color too. I use the dry product from KIS compost teas, SM 90, and on their adivce I use small amounts rather than larger amounts. It's really not a large part of my feed program. I bought a lb of the sm 90 two years ago and still have most of it, at this rate I will have it for quite a long time....scrappy
