How Brew Compost Soil into A Plant Fertilizer Tea!

Compost tea has been addressed as a magical solution that makes plants produce stronger, taste better, ripen faster, run beyond, and jump higher. However, some of these claims may be taken with a grain of salt, and some more benefits to compost tea. It will be fun to brew, too.

It takes 24-36 hours to make compost tea. If it’s any longer than that and your mixture will be at risk of collecting some not-so-friendly bacteria like E.coli and salmonella. The bacteria within will use up all the oxygen, which makes anaerobic conditions, and raises the probability that viruses, bacteria, and molds will flourish.

You can collect compost tea in powder form in stores. Yet be confirm to test it out first. Or you can make your tea. This tea can be made with or without aeration and with or without adding additional nutrient sources like syrup that feed bacteria. If you want good outcomes, airing and additions are recommended. And of course, proper compost is vital. Sharing you a sample compost tea recipe which is very useful for vegetable crops:
