Tea Brewing!!!
Here in a day or so when we see the first actual sign of plant life poking its head above the rock wool cubes we need to be ready for the "rooting stage" of the plants early life cycle. Even though I was a contractor for many years, I have also done my fair share of studying in the area of botany. Yes, we know this is a hydro grow with a recirculating drip system. Yes, we are using Ancient forest soil amendment. It doesn't matter when it comes to using teas. Hydro or soil, my thought is use them. Micro bacteria and fungi are an essential part of the plants growth, so start early. There is over 35,000 species of bacteria and 5,000 species of fungus in the ancient forest. 2 gallons of water goes in a clean bucket, always a clean bucket. In a clean stocking put 2 large cups of the ancient forest mix, one large tablespoon of ZHO (for rooting inoculate), mixed with a few drops of super thrive...and you have a very nice tea to start these little girls on there way to greatness. Try it yourself and you'll love it too. We will let this brew for at least 24 hours (it will turn a dark brown color due to the Ancient Forest), but better if closer to 2 full days and then hand feed the majority of it. The rest will be added to the resivior. Make sure to change your res within a week of adding the tea mixture. Also in the next day or so ZHO will be added to the rock wool cubes themselves and Dyna Gro K-L-N will be added to the res at 5ml/gal of water. So for our 25 gallons of water, 75ml of K-L-N will be added...I will update then. I told you I would give away some of my secrets, and everything I post, I actually do, have done in the past, and will continue to do...because it works.
