If you have a farm or a medium to large scale back yard growing addiction then this is for you. Stop wasting money on specially fertilizers and invest in your compost tea set up. This will give you the most value for money hands down. In this video I'm walking you though the most simple compost tea recipe ever. High quality worm castings, rain water, and organic unsulphured molasses. It's all about the microbes. The molasses feeds the beneficial soil microorganisms and they are able to multiply over the course of the brew. If you have a microscope, the main players of the soil food web can be seen in a petri dish, and this can help you dial in tea to a tee. The idea is to extract the microbes, multiply, and apply to your plants. This can be used as foliar spray or as a soil drench. I dilute compost tea using a 1:9 ratio (tea to rainwater). With this ratio a 40 gallon brew will yield 360 gallons of brew. Amazing stuff. I would do a brew at least once a month for a new garden or a garden that is not growing right. You can actually do more, but I would couple these once a month brews with other strategies to be the most effective.
