Vegetative Organic Tea?

Are there any Organic Teas Specifically for The Vegetative Stage? I got Subcool Super Soil Cooking up now and will be ready by October. My babies are in 1 week into Veg stage in Roots Organics Original Soil. Ive read that this soil can feed them alone with water through the vegetative stage, but i want to add more to the feeding process. I found this thread and wondering if it's good or not.

Veg Mix:
1/3 cup Peruvian Seabird Guano (PSG)
1/3 cup high N Bat guano ( Mexican)
1/3 cup earth worm castings
5 tsp. Maxicrop 1-0-4 powdered kelp extract
( that makes the dry mix. You can make all you want and save it for later. )
Mix with water at 1 cup of dry mix to 5 gallon of water to make the tea.
To that 5 gals add:
5 tbs Liquid Karma
5 tbs Black Strap Molasses
Use this to water every 3 rd watering

Flowering Nutrient Mix:
2/3 cup Peruvian Seabird Guano
2/3 cup if earth worm castings
2/3 cup High P guano (Indonesian or Jamaican)
5 tsp Maxicrop 1-0-4 powdered kelp extract
( that makes the dry mix make as much ad you want and save it for later)
Mix with water @ 2 cups per 5 gals.
To that tea add:
5 tbs of Liquid Karma
5 tbs Black Strap Molases
Use it EVERY watering

Thank you in advance.

YEs, I'm a newbie to this.

COol. I will check it out. However, I already have it cooking up. A friend donated a lot of those ingredients, all i had to buy was the Base Soil and Worm CAstings. So i guess i will use it. HOwever, i do have some Roots Organics Master Schedule Nutrients left over. Maybe i can run a comparison. Thank you for the link. Looks like a lot of great info.

But if there is anyone out there with a great Organic Tea recipe for Veg, it'll be awesome if you can share it.

Thank you.

Thank you.
Alfalfa meal and kelp, 1tbsp each per gallon, steep for 24 hours. Apply directly to root zone. Strain off the crap to apply as a foliar spray.

if you have the soil amended as heavily as they call for, you won't want anymore nutrients man, you'll burn em, lock em out, or simply fubar the PH.
Rasta Boy. Thank you. Also, great thread on your soil. I think im gonna try your method.
do that, don't layer, and add a LOT of fresh compost if possible

Compost is killer! Grease got me switched over. He said that it is not often that the "cheaper" way is the better way! I hardly spend money on soil anymore!!!
shit it's almost NEVER that the cheapest is the most efficient.
that's sorta the problem with potgrowers, is that they equivolate money spent with success.
same reason why potgrowers like to throw money at growing, thinking that more money is going to equal success.
Or worse still, ATTENTION..
always tweaking things, always wanting to feed this and that...
with plants all that is often counterintuitive.

Thanks for the input, guys. But I was only asking for an organic tea for the veg stage. I have them in solo cups right now and will transplant to 3 gallon fabric pots. They're only sitting in Roots Organics Original Soil, but I want to feed them a tea here and there. After that I will transplant to 10gallon fabric pots with subcool soil for flower stage.

I didn't add Epsom salt to subcool soil. I will add that to the R.O. water along with Cal.Mag when I water them.

I think that we have all been there! It was a decent starting point for me, atleast Subcool got me interested in organic growing!
Yeah his stuff is the first thing I googled but after reading the buildasoil blog and seeing the cost difference it was an easy choice. And given all the people I've had to counsel who've had problems while doing it...I'm glad I never spent too much time with it lol.
