Compost tea 3 times a week!?

KISS..Keep it simple stupid. I'm not calling you stupid its just an old time saying which certainly rings true. Lack of diversity is the problem when using microbes out the bottle as theres 1000s of different types that all feed on each other and the best only has a dozen or so vermicompost is one of the best sourcesbut you have no idea how old it is as they aren't likely to live longer than 18mnths.All that molasses wont help though.They go into a frenzy when they feed on it and its more than likely to effect their relationship with the roots. The plant will attract certain microbes it needs at certain times but if they've got sugar there then they're not likely to want the plant food so aren't doing their job as they should. I don't tea every week. I don't once or twice in veg over several weeks and a few times during the start and mid flower.Its more likely to do it harm than good.

I didn't even consider the nutrients in the 2 lots of shit which has a lot phosphorus and seaweed will burn your plants with that amount. Stop it.

Over stimulation with nutrients at this late stage will actually have a negative effect, not a positive one.
Less is more when it comes to final maturation of cannabis.
There is nothing magical you can do to improve quality or yields at this late stage.
Gentle feeding and moderate inputs are what is needed now to get them over the line.

Once a week would be more than enough, 3 times a week would be over feeding and might desrtroy all the quality you have been carefully cultivating.

The diversity isn't a problem, but the concentration is.
I personally prefer a very light feed every watering rather than water for a week or 2 and then dump a bunch of nutrients on.
Keep the dilution weak and keep an eye on the tips of the leaves. If you see any burning starting, just give water for a few days and then feed again with an even lighter mix.

this sounds like a lot of nutrients buddy yes they are organic but they still are very potent nutrients meaning if you added them all you could end up over feeding like I said in your last question its always better to test it on a plant you don't care about first then if it works apply it to your grow :)
