ok, so after reading the huge thread on AACT, I decided that I needed to make some for my garden. I filled up four 5 gallon buckets with 4 gallons, then one more bucket with 5 gallons. I got my paint strainer and put in 2 cups worm castings, 1/2 cup seabird guano, 1 tbs fish emulsion, 1 tbs kelp emulsion, 3 tbs Myco, 2 tbs molasses, and a handful of fresh grass clippings. This is the tea after 30 hours:
Â
so, since it's about noon here now, i'll wait about another 7 hours and mix my tea with a 1:5 ratio, and dispense 25 gallons of it in my garden. I'm planning on soaking the soil, and spraying my peppers, tomatoes, cucumbers, and zucchinis with it. My corn won't get any tea, as i'm doing a different kind of fert schedule with it. The tea seems to be coming along nicely so far. I think i'll start using it every week, and just plain waterings in between the tea applications. The black rod you see on top of the bucket is holding my bag of ingredients.
