Looking to get started in brewing my own teas for use in my soil garden. read all the various posts and recipes but looking for some more input. What equipment will I be needing? What do I put the worm castings or guano in? Does pantyhose really work or is there something better? How strong of a pump can I use or should I get. I've heard having too strong a pump can disrupt or disturb the beneficial microbes in the brew. Correct me if I'm wrong!! I've also heard that having an airstone was not necessary either. I was thinking of acquiring most of the supplies from walmart (the pump,tubing, round rubbermaid type resevoir for holding solution) In anyones experience can a decent quality pump be found there or even a pet store? Hoping I can find one locally as I'm pretty excited to get started in doing some AACT's. I'm currently using the GO line with the plants growing in 50/50 FF OF and Roots Organics. As I don't have many plants, 12 is my legal limit, I bought the General Organics GO box. When those run out, thats when I'd like to get into making my own brews. So far I'm thinking of a little brew to supplement the Go line with someting along the lines of Some Worm castings, Molasses, and some kelp extract. Just a little brew so I can give them a rest yet continue to feed my soil. Any help from you "tea brewers" out there would be welcomed. When I acquire the stuff, I will be chronicling my adventures in "tea" in my first ever grow(journal in sig) Sorry if i'm comin off as longwinded, but any help is appreciated. This is a great community.
