From time to time, when money has been tight, I've been known to search the freezer and pantry...and sometimes I've come up with some really good meals that I would have never considered had I not been broke and hungry! Like a Hobo Stew. Necessity is the mother of invention as they say!
Well... money's gonna be a bit tight again for a while. I'm going to have to hold off re-supplying on tea making ingredients. In the meantime, I've just gone thru the nute shelf, and came up with this, which I've thrown in the brewer to bubble. I used: (For 3 Gallons of water):
2 cups Fox Farms Big Bloom
3 TBSP Bush Doctor Kangeroots
4 TBSP Botanicare Liquid Karma
6 tsp G. O. Cal/Mag
A BIG dollop of Molasses
Bubble in the brewer for about 36 hours before I need to use it.
My thinking is that while this is certainly not a world-class tea recipe, that it would be better than nothing until I can afford to resupply the worm castings and guanos. My plan is to use it as a concentrate and cut it at a 50-50% application rate. My questions are...
1. Am I kidding myself with this, or do you think there's enough microlife in the Big Bloom and Kangeroots to get things started reproducing?
2. Do you think I should use this at a 50-50% dilution ratio, or would a different ratio be better?
Thanks in advance for your opinions!
Best,
Max
