Organic Grow and Bloom Enhancer

In every square inch of soil, there are billions of active microbes that make up a complex community of organisms living in and around the roots of plants. Microorganisms help break down organic materials and convert them into plant-available nutrients. By incorporating more organic and natural ingredients, you can rebuild your soil with millions of beneficial microbes that will help create a more nutrient-rich environment for plants to grow in. With the help of organic biology, you can experience better overall plant health and performance. Xtreme Tea Brews provide an easy-to-use, quick, effective way to add life back to soil. It can be used as an instant extract or as compost tea brewed in an aerated brewer. Simply pour the brewed tea around the base of the plant once a week. The microbes around the root zone begin rapidly breaking down nutrients into a form your plant can use right away. With more nutrients and minerals available, plants can grow stronger and faster.

Preparation

Make sure the compost tea brewer is clean before use. Fill it with fresh, filtered water. A water temperature of 60–70°F throughout brewing is ideal.

Aerated brew

Place the nylon tea brew bag intact in the water. Tear open the activator food pack and add its contents. For 3–5 gallons of water, use one 80 g brew pouch and the contents of one activator food pack. For 15 gallons of water, use three 80 g brew pouches and the contents of three activator food packs. Keep the solution well oxygenated with air stones and allow it to brew for 24–48 hours with a submersible pump for best results.

Quick brew

In a bucket containing 3–5 gallons of water, add one 80 g brew pouch. Squeeze and rapidly massage the pouch for 60–90 seconds to help extract the material into the water. Waterproof gloves are recommended when handling the material in water. Add the contents of one food pack and stir until well mixed. Apply immediately.

Application

Pour standard-brew or quick-brew tea at full strength around the base of each plant, then water thoroughly. Use the following amounts for each container size:

The tea may be diluted after brewing. The maximum dilution is 1 gallon of tea for every 10 gallons of water (1:10).

Hydroponic systems

Use tea 24 hours before changing the reservoir. Running tea in a hydroponic system for prolonged periods is not recommended. Add 1–2 gallons of tea concentrate for every 10 gallons of nutrient solution. Use tea throughout the growing season, including the week before harvest.

Cleaning the tea brewer

Wash off all residue after brewing and disinfect the brewer with antibacterial soap, bleach (2%), or hydrogen peroxide. Rinse thoroughly after disinfecting.
