Might have to look around more then. I mean in any populated city nearly everything is somewhere in any amount imaginable. Think of all the places that make it their business to break down large amounts and sell them as small amounts at an inflated cost. There's always someone at the bottom...

70lbs of alfalfa meal used at a few tablespoons per 5gals... goes a long long way. You don't have feed stores or bulk barns where you can buy whatever you want?

Maybe if you brew some super tea using high quality humic acid, guanos, enzymes, b vitamins, chitin, etc the cost could become higher than buying a premade compost tea. You still can't buy a bottle that contains the same kind amount of bacteria as a freshly brewed tea. I personally don't think...

Either way, your solid nutrients being brewed into a tea aren't just leeching out or dissolving there's fungi and bacteria at work producing enzymes to break down your large organic molecules into smaller ones they can eat which are also plant soluble.

Nutes from General Hydroponics Flora series for example are not brewed from compost. They're refined or produced synthetically. Hydroponic nutrients have their derivatives labeled on the bottle. For example, Supernatural brand's Super Boost is derived from - Mono-Potassium Phosphate...

Yeah, the idea of a compost tea is to activate the beneficial bacteria and fungi and allow them to reproduce rapidly over the course of 1-3 days. This is essentially the same thing that happens in soil but much faster as you're giving the bacteria and fungi an optimal place to live as you...

Why is that? I've fed coco Advanced Nutrients Iguana Juice,AN Mother Earth Tea, and Botanicare PBP granted these aren't the same thing as a freshly brewed compost tea but they're far more similar than refined hydro nutes you say I "need"

Do not give advise to let a dead fish rot in a fish tank this is a vector for disease to spread which could be lethal to the crop. In commercial aquaponics any fish showing signs of illness are immediately removed and either killed or quarantined. It would be hard to maintain both a waterfall...

Howdy, I plan to sustain motherplants under aquaponics. I think it's good to start mothers in aquaponics because they arguably don't need the same growth you would expect from crop plants. Also you are building up plant mass while bacterium can build up. I'm either going to do a piss fed setup...
