    Sorry for double post...

    Yes worm tea recipe, easy. I use the produce of my worm farm to make tea, not casts, in my experience casts are for a potting mix, not a tea, however I am sure others make a tea from it. I don't bubble it, i probably should however i find that with such a small percy grow , tap water 'rested' for 24 hrs is fine.

    Anyway back to the worm tea, we'll do this in litres again, so you can do your own maths for your needs. 1L rested water, 1 TBLS useed tea bags (for added nitrogen); just the tea mind not the paper wrapper 250mls worm farm concentrate (straight out the drain ressevoir) you can also wash the worm mulch to get an immediate tea, but that entails removing the worms and using the mulch as a teabag - very time consuming, and i put a tea spoon of ground egg shells. Thats about it really, every second feed i chuck 1ml per Litre biobiz grow, for all those lovely little extras so difficult to get in quantity from natural resources. This is quite a heavy nitrogen mix however it seems to do good things.

    When I flower i modify the tea slightly and add 1TBSP of milk for calcium for added bud structure. I stop this 2 weeks before harvest, and run the water right down, for the last few days the girls get nothing, and they 'clean house' so to speak, this process also helps get a bit more THC from the plant too .

    However this makes a whole new question, because the worm farm I run coincides with the food i feed the worms, thats what makes your worm mulch do the business. maybe ill post a worm farm feeding regime...They have a complicated diet to get the best, reasonably quickly IMO.

    For my potting mix i do a straight forward cop out, one thats tried, tested and works for me; straight B&Q multipurpose, no added nothing, I add about 15/20% perlite, it has enough gentle food for the girls for about a month, however i reinforce this with a seaweed/worm tea washing a day before i pot on, giving a bit of 'blending' time. By the time I've added the seaweed and worm juice its about 60% water.

    I use a tea when and if i see a deficiency, not all the time.

    Hey buddyboy, is it possible to boil your kelp for a while and then use the water that's left for spraying on the foilage? cheers

    In this instance you would boil away some % of the nutrients, as essentially Kelp is a cold water organism.

    However there are arguments for, and against boiling. I just use it as per my sticky. It works wonders as it is.

    Why do you wanna boil it anyway? Are you having it with a pork chop and gravy?

    haha no! not at all! i have really limited time and space for another bucket for three months. and would love to try get it on this crop.

    Ive searched google for alternatives i can buy but have only found sachets that u add to water and for me that defeats the purpose a little.

    I think i might give it a try, its noway going to be as potent as your recipe, but worth a try maybe!

    The proper stuff is difficult to find, I have sent you a PM as a pointer for a good alternative to my special sauce...
