So i mix all my organic teas and slurries in the same mason jar and on my last feeding a few days ago i had about 250ml of slurry mix left. I opened the jar today and it was absolutely rancid. Is the stink good or bad? Do you guys discard teas that get stinky? its a mix of chicken compost, worm castings, molasses and liquid fish and seaweed

Mr. Heisenberg Tea would say discard when it stinks.
Tea can be stored in the fridge for about 7 days.

If your soil is healthy, it may can take it, but that others have to decide.

Ive used sour tea before and my plants blew up. But it was made from leaf mold. I've heard even aged manure contains levels of e. Coli. Toss it

Good job, bad tea can kill plants with one watering. Thats from experience
