BALANCED COMPOST TEA

LEARN - SHARE - GROW

Base Recipe​

​

​

1.5 pounds of balanced compost


(equal parts bacterial to fungal biomass)


1.6 ounces of humic acids


1 ounce of liquid kelp*


1 ounce of soluble unsulphured black-strap molasses

​

​

*We've specified liquid kelp here, however, sometimes we like to add a tablespoon of kelp meal as well to provide surfaces for the

fungi to attach too.

​

The black-strap molasses is great, because it naturally contains a number of beneficial minerals (e.g. potassium) that feed your microbes and soil.

​

​

These elements can be put into a fabric type bag and allowed to strain like a tea bag,

​

However I am finding that just tossing in all the ingredients and letting it do it's thing works great!!

​

Use the leftover Elements from your tea bag or in the bottom of your brewer when finished to top dress your plants.

​

BREW FOR 24 to 48 HOURS FOR FULL MICROBIAL ACTION!!! DILUTION RATE 50/50 WITH WATER!!!
