I am curious... do you add your compost tea to your main reservoir or apply individually to each plant? you said something about having 14 gallons total brewing and you have a total of 14 plants? so that would equal about one gallon of compost tea per hundred gallons of soil? sorry I am new to this compost tea and am trying to get away from chemicals as much as I can. I havent seen anything really in the growing large plants thread and saw that you are creating yours now... Your grow is looking good and I am very impressed with the small space. I have something quite smaller going but hopefully I will do alright.
hey right on man, thanks for the encouraging words! start a thread man, i wanna see what you got goin bro.
well for the outdoor ive only been foliar spraying the teas, tomorrow will be the first time i put a concentrated 10 gallon tea into my irrigation.
MAJ- thanks man, welcome aboard!
all i can say about foliar spraying teas is - BOOYAH.
i use the leftover spray on my lime tree, passion fruit and tomatoes. my tomatoes are now far larger than my dads, who had a month head start with larger starts. the passion fruit is just amazing and really really green, flowering all over. my limes are two to three times larger than store bought limes. some look like green oranges. so yeah im stoked on foliar teas.
the 14 gallon brewer is for indoors, its 2 gallons per 7 plants., the pots are about 20 gallons in size so thats a 10% watering and feeding. for some reason though, my indoor is hating life. its killing me. something is up with that room. i flushed the shit out of the pots last night, 2 gallons of tea per plant might have been too much. we'll see. keep in mind the indoor teas are used for fertilization too, so they have guanos. no guanos in the foliar teas.
hope that helps!
