My super soil type is one from oversees as I am in Asia. We dont have the same options.
The issues seem to be with the following soil number 1 and NOT number 2 (lime green plants are in soil 1 which after transplant, they did not adapt to well):
1. Wood ash, blood meal, sand, lime, sawdust, pertlite, compost, vermiculite, peat moss, macronutrients, mirconutrients, mycorhuza, mucrococcus
2. Coconut fluff, Black Chaff, Chaff, Compost, Fish Amino Compost, mashed shells, 6 secondary minerals, microorganisms, yeast, Bacilus, Mycorrhizae
I was thinking to add the compost tea now, not so much for a nutrient infusion -- but to help rev up the microbial life which should assist with the lockout of nitrogen and pH issues too.
I have brewed up 5 gallons for 10 plants (each in 5 gallon pot) but it is my first time making an actively aerated compost tea so please let me know any feedback. Here is the composition:
Tea bag base
compost 1 cup
worm castings 1 cup
Extra tea ingedient
kelp extract
honey (or molasses if have)
fish hydrosolate
humic acid
bat guano
mycorhiza
trichoderma
My question is: for plants in early veg will this be too nutrient rich/powerful? Should I dilute and if so how much?
I just did a PPM and pH test and it came out to 460 PPM and 6.2 pH
