Hey Everyone,

Was wondering if I could use a brewed organic tea with wormcastings and Cap's beneficials as the only fertilizer for my outdoor crop?

Would the plants get enough food, or would they be lacking?

I am pondering for keeping costs down and being able to keep up with everything as a one man show.

Thanks!

Compost teas are going to do little to fertilize your soil. They are brewed to improve the amount of bacteria and fungi in your grow medium. Once the tea has been completed, pretty much all the nutrients have been depleted by the bacteria.

Instead, you should just add the compost directly to your soil, so it will give you nutrients gradually throughout the grow.
