i have a 5gal bucket with 2 airpumps and stones, i tossed in 2 cups of guano and i added a lil bit of fish emulsion, this tea will be mixed with a 3:1 ratio with unchlorinated water,,


does this sound right?? if not, what am i doing wrong??

thanks lots,,:peace:
 
oops i made a mistake,, its not a 3:1 ratio lol,,,,, i will brew 2 cups of guano in 5gal of water then use 2cups/gal of that to water plants... lol jeez i make things complicated,,,
 
well bone meal will give you a lot of P. I hope you are in veg by the look of all that N!

It looks interesting to me. Let us know if you burn anything. I use 2 tbsp to a gallon of water and then a flower or a veg nute depending on the "season", lol.

It can burn. Also i just read about a gut using a bone meal tea and he burned the shit out thinking it was slow release like in soil app.

I would not use the bone in yur tea for veg tho. Got any compost? That will give your tea a kick!

If i was you.. add some worm castings.. and some molassas it will swell up ur buds and give some sweetness to ur nugglets.
 
Howdy, i've made my own tea for years now and here's what I do. This is per gallon so you can adjust accordingly. De-chlorinated water, now depending where you are in your growing I am going to guess the veg state. I use 1 TBS Mexican Bat Guano, 1 TBS Worm Castings, 1 TBS Kelp and 1 TBS molasses. I brew mine for approximately 2 to 2.5 days. To really get some good beneficial bacteria going toss in 1 TBS or Rid-X. Found in the plumbing section just about anywhere. When brewing is complete I strain and feed accordingly.
 
castings are good to use and bump up the life in the tea. but bone meal is not water soluble and takes a while to break down and putting it in the tea will do no good unfortunately.

Rid-x...seriously??? Can anyone confirm that? According the Rid-x FAQ http://www.rid-x.com/faq.shtml it is not recommended for composting. I know brewing and composting are different methods...but still....
