I was curious what week people use fungal teas in their flower regimen.
Grit, thanks for the response your opinion is highly valued. Im about midflower and have the compost/oats a brewin. Should be interesting as I have a couple small er totes im going to try this out on. I also wondered was this a one time application or do i reintroduce the colony again? Interesting stuff in the least. MwdWhen i get beds set up in the next round or so, i'm going to be trying to work in the fungal tea midflower with some higher guano levels. Right now im making bacterial dominant all the way through and just changing guano ratios...seems to be doing fine but i'd like to experiment with what you are referring to as well.
Here is what I have concluded about teas through research and experience. Rather then trying to isolate specific fungi or bacteria for different parts of the grow process, brew what I refer to as 'full spectrum' teas that have a nice balance of fungi and bacteria. From there you can supplement the brew with stage specific amendments. . .meaning go easy on the N in flower, a and easy on the P in veg. Since my soils are amended and I scratch in organic ferts, teas are more like a desert with an assortment of bacteria and fungi and a VERY light dose of N or P and some K in the first few weeks of flower. You can replicate these steroidal bloom boost chem ferts with a well brewed tea applied at just the right time.
To some degree I interpret this as never do a brew the exact same way twice, but always brew. As long as you don't fuck the brew up and let it go to long and anerobic, the plants will be happy. I've probably done in the neighborhood 50-60 brews now.
I use some (but never all) of the following in my brews:
OG Biowar (formerly cap's bennies) Root, Nute, Foliar
Bountea Bioactivator
Earth Recharge Biodynamic Compost
Alaskan Humisoil
Boogie Brew
Insect Frass
Sea Green
Rootamentary
True Blooms
Kelp Meal
EWC
Bat Guano
Happy brewing!
