im probably looking at less microbial diversity the more time that goes by as well too right?
you say 24 hours or less? whats the minimum?
That's a long time. Most tea people I talk to say best to use at 24 hours or less, but at 72 hours aerated it will still be ok as long as it doesn't smell anaerobic.
last question and ive got this. what do you mean by "smells anerobic" what does that smell like.
Back when I brewed in a bucket I used a fish tank heater to keep my brew at 75.also whats ideal temperature to brew at?
This is a food grade product, so will cost 10X more than a feed grade.I assume that this powder is the same as using alfalfa meal. http://www.nowfoods.com/Alfalfa-Powder-1lb.htm
The label says pure. No additives. Anyone object to adding this to tea?

And, I don't believe powder is any better than ground or chipped.
Thats all cool...but I assume there is no harm in using it in a tea untill I have used it up and get some alfalfa meal next time.This is a food grade product, so will cost 10X more than a feed grade.

@Capulator How far along into flower is it ok to drench the soil without negative affects
So I've read your recipe for this tea and it looks fantastic. I grow in Coco with Canna nutrients. How would you recommend to use this tea? Should I use it every other week in flowering without the earthworms castings. I have used tea in the past but nothing that sounds this good. Please help!
Thanks Capulator
Hey cap had a quick question about my tea recipe. I am making a 4 gallon batch and I am using 100ml of molasses, 1 cup of earthworm casting, yucca extract, 1 tbs of root pouch, and 1 tbs of foliar pouch. Then I bubble it for 24 hours. My main question is, is that enough of the root and foliar packs. I see ppl are using up to 4 tbs of each and I want to make sure I am not overloading the bennies with too much molasses and making them into sugar junkies. Thx again for hearing me out
3 more tablespoons each and drop the molasses by 20mL.
You can use less if you like. You may also dilute the tea anywhere from 1:10 to 1:100. You can even use full concentrate. PM me if you have questions. I know a lot of this info is hard to find in the threads. Think I will make an FAQ.
Cap, i notice on your website under the tea brewing instructions, it says, "OGBIOWAR likes a short 2-4 hour brew" I have a print out of an older recipe you posted that looks identical to the current one, but mine says "OGBIOWAR likes a 24 hr brew"?
2-4 is for max diversity from the packs... 24 will do just fine. You can even just mix it and add it to the substrate/spray and get spectacular results. It's hard to miss really. There are so many spores per gram.
I dont recommend going past 24 hours though unless you are an experience tea brewer.
