I have a Q for ya Cap
I been brewing my teas for 18 to 24 hrs (love it by the way) and Im trying to schedule myself to be able to be at the grow a few less days a week. Im wondering if it will be good if I brew my teas for 48 hrs instead of 24.
Is there any pros or cons for shorter longer brew times
Thanks in advance
The shit is the shit

Ok thanks
I think the helper can manage adding a couple tbls of carbs at 24 hrs
PS I have a entire bottle of orca can I dump that in the tea at the end of brew just to use the stuff up???
And thanks again

2. Initial pH of solution before inoculation (especially this)
4. Amount of time you run air in the brewer before inoculation.
Sounds great and thanks
But yeah ~ what other "PHs" do you use?

Cap, do you recommend using your products on vegetable gardens? I feel like it help produce some solid tomatoes...
Hey Cap, I know this has been asked before a million times. But is it OK to use a Fogmaster Jr. to foliar feed my girls with my OG Biowar Tea?
Also do you add a surfactant like Coco Wet? If adding Sea Green to the tea is adding a surfactant necessary?
Thanks;)
Squig,Absolutely on the Orca.
My recommendation is that you never make the same tea twice on a run. Vary the following values:
1. Amount of feed.
2. Initial pH of solution before inoculation (especially this)
3. Recipe.
4. Amount of time you run air in the brewer before inoculation.
5. Setting of your air pump (DO level).
6. Temperature.
7. Length of brew
What this will guarantee is that you get the most diverse biolife in your soil possible. Not all bacteria/fungi/protozoa like the same growing conditions. There are SO MANY different organisms in caps packs and they can't all thrive under the same exact conditions. If one type blooms under a specific set of conditions--perhaps it eats a smaller population of a different type before it can even get a good foothold.
You don't want to follow the same exact process every single time.
I would develop at least a 5 recipe rotation where you vary the above values in different ways to guarantee the most diversity possible.
I don't think I've ever brewed tea exactly the same way twice--I just wing it every time (I also start off with a very dilute mix of my nutrient solution).
