Could anyone please post some of their recipes and brew times for ACT.
I would love to give them a go.
Thanks.
Dave.
10 pounds of compost (mix of 75% worm, 25% thermal composts)
1 pound of kelp (Maxi-Crop, Acadian, Sea Kelp, or check the label
to make sure no toxic levels of anything)
1 gallon humic acid (Hydrahume, Terra Vita, Horizon Ag or Turf Pro
liquid products all seem to work really well)
For extra fungal punch, add a half cup of pablum
