I was just reading on ICMag the CC doesn't use Comfrey is teas anymore. Looks like it's better to put it straight in the soil or prob topdress/mulch.

LOL! I am the messenger, that is all. I get the biggest kick out of this all. My grow perspective gets more and more simple. I feel like we're really zeroing in on the truth.

Growing can be so simple and easy if we just grow the way the plants and microbes have evolved over the last few million years. Nature has everything we need. No need for a bottle.

Even the big guns, CC gascan etc, are messengers. Just spreading the truth, and doing so for the sake of sharing instead of personal gain. No one can take credit for these "methods" other than mother nature. People can take credit for trying to replicate nature and sharing their experience doing it. That's what you and the rest of the gang are doing and its great.

I'm bubbling some homemade EWC, BioFlora compost, molasses, kelp, and alfalfa. Gonna bubble that for 24-36 hours depending when I get to it. Drench and foliar with tea and aloe/coconut.

You can purchase my tea for the low low price of 29.99 enough for 2 batches!!!!! haha

Morning dirtbags! Thought I'd share my Gogi OG that I just drenched her and her sisters with nice dark Guinness colored tea made of fresh EWC, Bioflora Compost, Alfalfa, Kelp Meal, and Molasses. I also added coconut water and aloe at the end.

Headtreep, you're doing AACT? I'm weirdly compelled to badmouth AACT every time I hear it. I think it is one of these BS side businesses that sprang up to sell stoners. If you Google it, you'll see that no one else employs AACT for commercial horticulture. That's clue #1 that something stinks in Denmark

Or they might apply AACT once to get things started in a poorly established garden. If you're soil food web is happy and healthy, the addition of AACT is questionable at best...i would agree with rrog here. I used to be convinced AACT was a great thing, then I started thinking about it from the perspective of the soil microbes...

No, I don't use that term AACT but I do use ACT. In my above post I just made a basic tea with those in small amounts but was schooled on using so many ingredients over on the mag. I guess I should keep my compost/ewc teas seperate from my herbal teas and not use both together. Make sense to me and luckily I use such small amounts it's not gonna hurt imo.
