Compost tea brews options for aeration

[seaofgreen18]

Howdy all was wondering what you All do for your aeration in your compost teas? And what kind of recipes do you folks use in a brew? As well as what you do with the remains of your brew I'm just looking to compare notes here Leave a message Ron from Michigan

Hi seaofgreen18, Lately I've been using Real Growers Recharge. Just a tsp/gal as I water now and then. It's cheating but has its merits. Have you considered something like this?

I used to aerate but have been lazy since this product. It's packed! Check out the ingredients, maybe it has what you're looking for.

Il check it out for sure and if you get time check out Dr Elaine Ingram on YouTube she's got a good grip on compost teas I think, myself I always aerate I tried a snake from Build a ... But it was hard to clean so I made my own lift system because don't want it to go anerobic the more air the better better to much than not enough I'm actually trying to multiply the fungi and the more harder things that I need the bacteria grow easy so room temp time of brew where your gonna use it alot of factors to think about if you want MAX results. Now some ppl think it's hocus pocus but I got to tell you I see my plants react a pea green right away on a good brew and with the soil happy the plants are happy the Exudates from the roots can signal any BioLife it need to be happy!

I brewed for about a year during my TLO phase. I just used a large airstone in a 5 gallon bucket, with a 750gph air pump. It wasn't fancy, but it worked well.

Thank you it's cheap to make it's the air lift method with 1 1/4 pvc works GREAT I want to build a vortex Brewer sometime but Im a small outfit so I don't have a need. She's got some REALLY GOOD Information have a good one

Why did you give it up? Lol fancy doesn't mean better that's for sure mines not fancy either but work Great and I'm a FRUGAL ONE! If I can't reuse it I recycle it
