Hi there,

Got a good recipe (not organic or hand made by any stretch) that will give you a good frothy CFU brew in 24 hours . . . here we go:

20 litres Water (demineralised, ideally RO) or tap water left out and bubbled for at least 24hrs (removes chlorine)
10ml Bud Candy from Advanced Nutrients (Several types of sugars and a few carbos as food for microbes)
5ml Humbolts Honey ES (More natural sugars)
5ml Carbo Load from Advanced Nutrients (Additional carbos)
10ml Golden Nectar Humic Acid from GHE (Activates the Piranha well, conditions the soil and other things)
5 ml Fox Farms Bushdoctor Microbe Brew blinding stuff :thumbsup:
5g Piranha Powder (mix to a thick watery clay in a shot glass with a few drips of water, then added slowly to bucket)
5g Tarantula Powder (mix to a thick watery clay in a shot glass with a few drips of water, then added slowly to bucket)

Leave these ingredients in a bucket with a bubbling air stone in the bottom, a small water pump to keep it all agitated AND, if needs be, an aquarium heater set the mix to somewhere between 22 to 24 deg. C oh yeah, keep the lid on it and ideally keep it our of light's way.

I'm considering adding a Vitamin supplement to the recipe, (AN's B52 or Hesi's SuperVit etc) just to see if it has any effect. Could a Vit supplement in a Tea help???

Any hoo, in 24 to 36 hours you will have a good healthy frothy bucket of goodness ready to serve your root zone . . . . . . I have found my plants can handle A) More regular feeding (coz they burn the feeds up quicker) and B) Stronger feeds . . . . . resulting in perfuse growth and flowering . . . . .

Hope this helps you, or anyone else for that mater . . . ..

Cheers n gone
