foliar feeding question

[Suby]

That tea with the bat guano you mentioned, you only has 1 TBS in the tea and you bubbled the tea for only 24 hrs, that won't be enough guano or time for the guano to break down or for the microbes in the tea to turn into a usable form.
When I make a guano tea I let it seep in the water for at least 3-4 days, you can also use the solid guano left in the tea and topdress the soil with, it will slowly release whatever is left in the guano (which is quite a bit).
If you need a quicker nitrogen fix you can mix 1 part urine with 10 parts water, it is high in immediately available N and fully organic, drink alot of water before you use it and it won't stink or be high in salts, I've used my piss in outdoor grows for before and sometimes with outdoor grows you need a nitrogen fix right away.

Peace

ok so a guano need 3 days or so to break down and be in usable form. how a bout alfalfa meal. im brewing some right now and i was thinking to only brew it for 2 days. its that ok or should it be more.

1 part urine with 10 parts water huh? well i drink 2 liters of water a day so my urine is crystal clear. but being a female im not down to pissin in a cup to water my plants and get some immediate n. ill stick with the fish emulsion. but thanks for the idea suby haha.

equipment" lol

I am sure I'm right sometimes and wrong others.

So how did you do?
