¼ cup Big Bloom by Fox Farm
BUBBLE THIS FOR 24 HOURS THEN ADD
½-1 cup fresh compost or earthworm castings
BUBBLE FOR AN ADDITIONAL 24 HOURS
Strain with a regular strainer, dilute with pure water, and apply, remembering to stir it between
plants, so that all the plants get an equal share of the tiny particles of organic matter that will tend
to sink fairly quickly in a tea. That's the golden part of the tea right there, besides the microbial
life. The above tea is a 2-day tea, and the castings/compost is added during the second half of the
bubble time, so the liquid can get equalized for greater survival rates of the life in the castings
when it hits the tea solution. A lot of time making teas and looking at samples through my micro-
scope has led me to believe this is the best approach for enhancing tea life.
SEEDLING AND FRESHLY ROOTED CLONE
TEA
2 teaspoons all-natural molasses
1 teaspoon liquid fish fertilizer
1 tablespoon alfalfa meal
1 tablespoon kelp meal
½-1 cup fresh compost or earthworm castings
1 teaspoon dry, soluble kelp or liquid seaweed
10 drops CaMg+ by General Organics, or comparable liquid mineral supplement
BUBBLE FOR 24 HOURS
Strain, dilute and apply the tea above. This is a really great 1-day tea recipe that also works well
on true landrace genetics from exotic lands, as they usually prefer a lighter touch when it comes
to feeding.
