Cheers, unfortunately im in the EU, one of the ingredients for the tea (Aquashield) isnt available anywhere
i might be able to get some Hydroguard, would that be any good?

Ok thanks ill make sure the whole bucket is done.
I also live in Europe, could find alternatives
1. Old GHE (TA) has a powder with trichoderma, i think BioPonic Mix it was called
2. There is also a product with Myco, i think its called "MycoGrow" from trabe, it contrains only Mycoriza (You could also try Advanced Nutriends Piranha if im not Mistaken)
3. For earth worm castings , you can replace it with something similar in liquid form.
4. There is also a product called "Great White SHark'' in Europe, i dont know if you can find it, it has most of the species you need
5. You can use brown sugar if you dont have molassses for the tea
PS. You dont need specific products, only 2-3 specific species of benificial microbes and breed them.
Go on reading the other thread i posted you, it has a lot of alternatives
Roots generally look OK, but the they might have slime, can't see clearlly in your photos , behind the air line
Are the plants doing better?
IF you use tapwater let us know.
If you do, make sure you let it bubble for 24hours to evaporate any chlorine in water. Or else it will be more difficult for the microbes to reproduce, might just kill em.
