Upcoming compost tea planning (first use of tea methodology): Fish bone meal, angel's touch, lobster compost, molasses, and recharge. Any thoughts on this combination? Also, what do you do w/ the leftover amendments in the bag? Throwing them away seems like a waste, no?

Hey there TCH, i'm circling back because what i do is (if) i have excess feed i collect it along with whatever comes out of the bottom of the pots into trays, and just reuse that on flower and fruit plants in the garden. You top dressing is okay but there's a pretty huge lag from when you've added it until it's rained enough for it to work. Make it so it's available to the plants you're giving it to right? just make more tea to have some left over , if you can. Remember , Tea is not precision science, the more you bubble the better it is until a point. Hope this helps ! 🚀
