COMPOST TEA
Per 15 gallons.
4 Cups: Organic Compost
2 Cups: Worm Castings
1 Cup: Bat Guano
1 Cup: Sea Bird Guano
1 1/2 Cups: Sea Plex (Seaweed)
1 Cup: Humex (Humic Acid)
1 Cup: Fulvex (Fulvic Acid)
6 oz (1/2 Jar) Unsulferized Molasses
Some pictures of what we use:
Super Bat Super Tea
A higher nitrogen and potassium ratio for all-around growth made from bat and seabird guano, plus earthworm castings. Use in soil or hydroponic applications. All organic materials; no synthetics used.
Super Bat Budswel
For strong, multiple tops in flowering plants. A high phosphorous mix of bat and seabird guano plus earthworm castings. Use in soil or hydroponic applications. All organic materials; no synthetics used.
Seaplex
Seaplex allows growers to take advantage of the myriad benefits of Ascophyllum nodosum kelp in certified organic crop production. It provides high concentrations of amino acids, plant hormones, enzymes and more to soil or hydroponic gardens. This water-soluble supplement enhances growth, promotes increased fruit size and yield.
Humex H2
You see, humic acid provides natural carrier compounds that transport nutrients and vitamins into your plants more efficiently enhancing their growth. Enhances smell.
Fulvex F1
GRANDMA ENGGY'S F-1 is golden clear and is the purest Fulvic available. We've seen other companies trying to make and sell Fulvic Acid, but testing shows their Fulvic formulas just can't match the purity, quality and potency of Grandma's seven-time extracted brew.
Unsulferized Molasses
This stuff keeps the tea alive. Feeding sugars to the bacteria. It is loaded with vitamins, minerals and trace elements naturally present in the sugar cane plant and is a good source of iron, vitamin B6, potassium, calcium and magnesium.

I disagree , I do agree you don’t know what you are culturing in your teas but to say it’s a myth . Smoke another one bud ,I know this is an old post. But for any future growers or people looking for knowledge. Compost tea is a myth. It's a bunch of bullshit. Its marketed bullshit. It's expensive.time consuming and a waste of your time.
Nine gardening myths debunked
Burying a cow's horn filled with manure is one thing, but even some of the better known horticultural tips don't stand up to scientific scrutiny, writes David Derbyshirewww.google.com
The Truth About Compost Tea, save time and money
Compost Tea is currently very popular in gardens. Does it add nutrients? Does it reduce diseases? Are the added microbes beneficial? Find out the truth.www.gardenmyths.com
There is ZERO SCIENTIFIC PROOF it works. Its simply stoner fucking bro science passed on from stoner to stoner and preached as gospel. Educate yourselves. Just use compost.
Growing organicly with all these amendments and teas is as big of a money grab as any synthetic nutrient line and everyones falling for it.
I agree you don’t need all this fancy expensive shit to be successful. And they do sell bullshit. But I have my own worm farm I get everything very cheap locally and it probably cost me 100$ per harvest for all my “expensive organic bullshit” my soil is used over and over again but to say it’s a myth and it’s pointless is a big reach of the truth. But I never bought into the bullshit you have to buy all these specific things. But Compared to what it cost me running hydroponic solutions , it saves me time and effort I spend more time with my family. I still don’t think you understand the concept of organics . KEEEP IT SIMPLE , your over thinking everything , I now purchase raw npk microbes grow and bloom versions and I only add it once , the worms the bugs everything else keeps the micro life up, but brewing teas trying new things is what makes things improve . I myself don’t use teas like I used to because of the I started my own worm farm and composting myself and I just do a simple worm casting molasses tea when I start my supersoil , asd my worms amendments and just water un ph’d dechlorinated water .
but if your spending so much money thay it’s made you thiss pissed off over a fucking compost tea post.
If you have the time “ and we all have the time right now” check out teaming with microbes . And honestly check out what @Emilya is doing , she helped me see things a little different and my grows have just got better and better since
Again your missing the point dude. I'm all for organic growing. I understand organic growing. I've done it. I've seen it done. The benefits, taste, smell, finished product etc I'm all for it.
MY BEEF witH compost tea is its a step that can be 100% CUT OUt OF THE EqUATION, of an organic garden.

All of its unnecessary. You have one handful of good compost and it's more beneficial than 20 batches of compost tea for your plant. That's not an opinion. Thats a fact. And that's my point. That's the only point I've been trying to make. Compost tea is bullshit. It's an unnecessary step for beginners. It's an unnecessary step for the experienced.
People rely on experienced members to teach them how to grow. Well if all the experienced members going off about compost tea like they do then everyone thinks it must be legit.
It's a placebo.
Good compost grows plants. Not tea.
Which was honestly a nightmare to read but it did side by sides on no teas and teas but not just one tea . They pick everything apart and make it a bunch of bullshit no one can understand , they take the plant matter the roots Do analysis on all of them , measure the root growth and how much actual plant yeiId , so everything is all there . have a hard time explaining myself and it honestly makes me look very stupid at times.Effect of Aerated Compost Tea on the Growth Promotion of Lettuce, Soybean, and Sweet Corn in Organic Cultivation - PMC
