Just started my first Tea brew...

The bacteria is building up some good foam.

No bad smell, only a sweet smell.

Just watered my peppers with a 50% solution of tea and RO water. The directions say I can use it at full strength, but want to start safe.

Looks like your in business. Thanks for linking your build on the cloner. Looks really professional.

Earthworm castings / compost, molasses, mycorrhizae, and RO water.

I like that it is a square bucket, and has a spout. I got it at a good price. I was going to build my own, but couldn't pass this one up.
I use the same recipe, to water all of my garden in the summer, sometimes I leave out the worm castings and use rain water, I have two five gallon pails both with duel large air stones. Going to switch to a 20 gallon setup this spring. I never used it on my seedlings I might give it a try.
