From what I understand, there are two different types of AACT teas you use based on which part of the plant's life cycle you're on.
I understand that during veg, more nitrogen is needed, and therefore more bacteria is needed to break down the nitrogen. High bacteria counts are achieved with making an aerated tea of worm castings and molasses (EWC to provide the bacteria, and molasses to feed them).
But what changes during bloom? I've heard mention that fungi is preferred. But I don't know why, or how to brew a fungi dominant tea.
Can someone help me by explaining why a fungi dominant tea is better for bloom, and how I would make just a basic fungal tea (no nutes, just basic ingredients to create a high concentration of fungi to inoculate the soil).
Thanks in advance.
