If you drill holes in the top to a juice jug it still won't work very well as a watering can because of the vacuum. One solution is to poke a hole in the handle. Using a length of air hose to break the vacuum leaves the jug intact and sealable. This will also work with a glass jug.

so I am aware the Ph'ing is unnecessary when using AACT and infact the acidity/salts will kill the microbial life given by your AACT's. My problem is: I use well water that has a PH at around 7.8 which gave me fairly bad PH fluctuation issues early on as it is so high (leaves curling, spotting...

A bit over a year ago, I set out to transfer sustainable outdoor gardening practices into my first grow closet. The journey bumped me into the Soil Food Web, which in turn reminded me of the concepts Herwig Pommeresche applies in his cycle-of-living-matter way of gardening. Applying both to my...

hey all! I am wondering if anyone has used Mother Earth super tea by advanced nutrients in a brewed tea? I understand it's probably made to be used out of the bottle rather than brewed. I am thinking of puting in some of this in my brew for 24-48 hours along with Humic acid, azomite, seabird...
