There's a company called "Gardner's Bud" that sells a "super compost tea" concentrate. Anyone used it or anything like it?

Seems like it might be useful for someone who can't make their own compost or something.

i would honestly much rather go with something like Boogie Brew over a "super concentrate". but diversity is the key... if you can't make or buy good compost, then several inoculants would be the way to go, for diversity.

but honestly, anyone can make their own compost with a worm farm indoors. occupies very little space, no smell, easy to maintain, and gets you better compost than you can buy in any of the grow shops (unless they carry a unique product which would probably be expensive)

I never thought of it, but a small worm farm would be about perfect for a little indoor garden huh?

Thanks for the inspiration and I'm sorry I'm a neophyte when it comes to organics.

I get a lot of freebie-schwag from the Emerald Cup every year. There are two things that might help you that I used last year that I found to be quite effective: Humboldt County's Own Killer Tea and OGTea's Veganic Special Sauce. I grow in soil outdoors and I added the Veganic Special Sauce with every watering over the first two weeks. I only had one small freebie packet and that's as far as it went. HCO gave me a a whole gallon jug of Killer Tea and that carried me through the rest of the season. The results were fabulous! I mean, my stash has an amazingly smooth flavor and the high is off the hook!

I wish I'd had more of the VSS because it literally does what the description says it does. About an hour after usage all of my leaves are pointing straight up at the sky and are just as perky as shit. Cannabinoid values were significantly higher than when I was brewing-up my own teas as well. I am not advertising anything. I just happened to catch your thread and wanted to share my experience. I was also handed samples of Boo's Brew(Malibu Compost), Dragonfly Earth Medicine's tea mixes and a couple other latest-greatest freebies. I was really impressed with what I saw of KT and VSS both so I kind of already know what I'm using this year.

Without divulging too much they gave a great description of how it's made at the Cup. I spent some time at their booth listening to their spiel. It's made up of pulverized bacterias, glomus, trichoderma and such that have been ground to a fine grade that microbes can eat. I keep a special filter on my back garden hose spigot that alleviates chlorine and fluoride etc from the water. I say this because you can't use standard chlorinated municipal water with it. It'll kill everything that's in it.

Matter of fact, I think this thread is telling me to hit my hydro shop and get some. They didn't have it last year when I needed more but I saw on the shelf last I was there.

I forgot about VSS, I have also used that product and it's definitely one of the better ones out there.
