Ohso, thanks for the great thread. I just read it and it is so nice to know that there are still some old die hards out here. I have been growing for 41 years now and have never been able to bring myself to use any chemicals. I have farmed organically all my life and raised my little girls the same way. I see some of these photos of the plants grown with the chems and think they look nice and have more bud than mine but I know mine taste better and they enjoyed their life more being natural. Thanks for the NPK breakdowns on the teas......we have a few different methods but the same ideas, Thanks again for the wonderful info and thread.

Now, you don't have to dilute it, but the tea is so rich (dense) with microbes that they will actually colonize the soil (and plant) at a lower density - and you will be 'wasting' tea/microbes.

Thank you Comystocky! Going to dilute 50/50 and see how my girls nourish.

CaneFan... Glad to see I'm not the only old Coot on here.
.
I've grown chem / hydro in the past and I'm not proud of having done so.
.
I converted to soil / organic growing about 12 years ago and have never considered going back. Soil has soul, chem / hydro does not.
.
I also agree with you 100 % that organic bud tastes best......
.
Keep it Real...Organic....

Is it okay to put crushed Dolomite Lime in with my teas? Will it harm the microbeasties?

Most people add lime to the soil, not the tea.

Very nice thread, btw. I actually have access to elephant poop.

I would just add it to plain water then, but I've heard of people adding it to tea.

I will concur, sweet site Ohsogreen

I am undergoing a transformation, a gentle path. The high road you could say. I do have an urge to rub my compost tea in my buddys nose who grows in hydro though. ha.
Thank you sincerely Oh So Green and my fellow Green growers.

The founding Fathers ( the cool ones) would be very fond of these discussions.
