eh i typically like luke warm teas about 70F maybe 75F if its hot you can cool it to around 66F or so but i personally dont like that as in much colder if its hot out since it can shock and slow your plant(s) and vise a versa but ya 70F is great

Do i have to dilute the tea to feed it to my plants roots or foliar feed it to them with more water?

I start at 1:1 dilution with plain water (50% strength) when the plant is around 2 weeks, then full strength a week later

generally speaking foliage spray is usually around a 15-25% strength of a tea diluted with a spreader sticker (wetting agent) and apply.and apply not in direct sunlight to avoid any shocking hazards.temp increases or major decreases can lead to shocking and slowing of the plant. so morning light apply or even evening.as long as you dont have mold issues in your area then in that case id avoid evening foliage spraying.morning is best anywho. then maybe afternoon shade spray again and awwww.happy plant(s)

Do you have to stir your tea after you add all your ingredients?

 

[Eyes on Fire]

no.sink the extraction bag and at that point the bubbles should be on or right after. no mixing required.

I just bought the organic sugarcrystals. Floridas crystals organic. Ever used that? How much do u mix in with ur tea?

 

[Eyes on Fire]

nope n ever used it,but if its like sugar in the raw Im sure it'll be fine. ya may have to melt them in a lil bit of water if your doing a smaller tea and for about 1 GALLON id use maybe a teaspoon rounded.lil less if a lot of molasses is used. but for 3-5 gallos I personally use a medium palm but saay 2 rounded TBspoons..maybe a touch more.3 possibly.
