3 Reasons Why Compost Tea Doesn't Work & How it Can Improve Your Garden

[@solarpanel8195]

this guy is a genius. love hearing him just go on a rant and talk about soil life. so interesting.

[@TracyR4]

Compost tea does work! I made some for my garden. It hasn't been budging much all season with the fertiliizers I was using. I didn't have air pumps. But I put water in my bucket ,let it sit for 24 hrs ( have city water) then put compost from my bin in , put some handfuls of our guinea pig poo and stirred like mad for the first 12 hrs, then stired like crazy all day the next 12 hrs and continued to stir it while I was pouring. Two days later my plants just grew and bloomed so much! I can't agree more with these guys. Give it a try and see. I'd love to try Boogie Brew, couldn't afford it this year, maybe next year :)

[@annnah3601]

Compost tea works good for me too

[@annachan1506]

I put in all kitchen scraps, fruit peels but not meat products..steep in water sealed bucket...I stir it occasionally..it really stinks..I put in some vitamin c..can I still use the stinky compost tea . Please advise.. thank you

[@tomfisher3117]

Thanks for the great video. I am confused though. I am in the process of reading "Jadam Organic Farming - The way to Ultra-Low Cost agriculture" by Youngsang Cho. I've made my own micro organisms (Fermented lacto and indigenous) for about 5 years and also used Fermented Plant Juice with wonderful results. I'm sure your brew works and is wonderful for the garden. The Jadam method of fertilizer uses petrification (plant matter and water)for it's fertilizer which is anaerobic. The book and youtube videos say that aerobic micro organisms are only found in the top 1-2" of soil but the roots are much lower in the soil and the micro organisms at the root level are anaerobic. For micro organisms, he uses boiled potatoes, sea salt and leaf mold from the base of a mountain or a forest. When done properly with the correct amount of these ingredients and non chlorinated water, there is no need for aeration. Obviously, there is much more to Youngsang's methods. His results are truly remarkable and yes, the putrefied fertilizer stinks. One of the reasons is that he applies his micro organisms 4 times before he plants. He also soaks his plant starts in the solution before planting. If you would like to take a look at the first of his many lectures - kzbin.info/www/bejne/a5rFaqyora11nas Thanks.

oh i love these 'josh' videos. he never fails to bring a smile to the day. "infuse it, and use it, before you lose it" Josh is a po-et, and he doesn't even know-it. great stuff again guys.

[@Jfunnydog]

I am a self taught organic gardener in Michigan of 2 years. Compost tea is beautiful and you guys are right about industries fearing this knowledge. Thanks to your informative videos I have been able to learn about compost tea ingredients and make my own recipes. Never stop learning and keep empowering people! And please ignore the comments of the sleeping souls, they will come around eventually :)

I live on the Washington coast on a sand bar. I am doing Hugelkulture with world's largest kelp. Hugelkelp. Kelp logs next to the Red alder logs we have here. Haven't seen anyone do that yet. I put a ton of other stuff in there as well, rotten logs all broken up to wood chips mostly red alder and old dead huge blackberry stalks, marsh fronds, dead dry hollow reeds, marsh muck for microorganisms, leaves, native soil ( there is some in thin layers around rotting material in the woods). We have a lake too. Some rotten broken up red cedar with mycelium on it, mushroom compost mixed with a bit of topsoil, oh I put the bull kelp I where I could fit the end in the wood chipper. Works great! Also make seaweed tea I want to charge biochar with. I am learning about biochar. Can you talk about the Ocean ecosystem and using seaweed/algae as a nutrient source? Found materials. Scarcity of materials and maybe some words on cultivating mushrooms. Innoculating my garden is the plan. I have the climate. I looked up Terra Pretta Amazon Black soil. They found algae in the soil. Kelp at least is actually algae! The only place on Earth u can find all the nutrients and minerals on the planet is in seaweed because the minerals and nutrients wash down the land into the rivers and oceans where it's taken up by the seaweed. Seems a no brainer to me they used seaweed from the river even. I am new to gardening & learning while documenting my garden building experience with my new Go Pro I got for Christmas. Hopefully I can get enough subscribers to livestream when I start making videos. I am excited to see how kelp logs do in a garden bed. I am new to gardening and am learning from you all on KZbin so thank you for what you do and my video is hopefully an encouragement for more people to plant gardens and use the great underused resource, seaweed. My plan so far for Biochar sorry for weird spacing. Copy past from google docs: BIOCHAR RECIPE What I have around: Scotchbroom galore! Red Alder Galore Fir galore MARINE BIOCHAR RECIPE? No idea how this works yet BIOCHAR CHARGE SEAWEED TEA RECIPE Soak a week to months balance PH & macronutrients make sure enough nitrogen. Seaweed tea (I have endless huge bull kelp I put thru the wood chipper) Biochar chunks Biochar dust (mix with rock dust 4 parts biochar to 1 part microrhysal rock powder, 1 part worm castings, less than 1 part of flour or rice bran, ½ part worm castings. (No molasses or rain water?) Sit 2 weeks at least. Longer better. Recipe end of video kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z4bMiGZjfrKZg6c) Worm castings Bat guano bagged (maybe organic chicken manure is safer) Molasses to feed microbes Flour to feed microbes Compost from compost bin Local Marsh muck?

[@TastyTrees916]

good to see you recommending a company like this John, through my personal interactions with the boogie brew team I can truly say they are good people. Can't wait to try some boogie brew!

[@campbellpaul]

100% agree with you. Unless you have the time and means to spread 1/2 inch of actual compost to your lawn/garden/trees twice yearly, you need to use compost tea about once a week, during the growing season. Less work, less prep, all organic gains ! ! ! Just do it ! ! !

[@monkeyprince5480]

Great show, guys! Second year into gardening and just experimenting with brewing my own compost tea for the first time. Can't wait to see the results! 🌺💛🐉

[@anthonydixonjr.5114]

Ive been watching your videos for a couple of months and have found them to be very informative and entertaining. I plan on buying a B.B. bucket kit soon. Im gardening with my Grandmother this year and I’m glad I’ve learned some things to show her from you. Peace be safe and I’ll keep growing!!!

[@ausfoodgarden]

[@chrisgraham140]

Can I use grass clippings to make tea with? The sun killed my cheap compost bins so I'm trying to do an alternative method?

[@jasonscreativeadventures3900]

cool video guys! Quick question. I brewed a 5gallon batch of boggie brew tea. for about 26 hours in my garage. but i didn't get a chance to apply it. the stuff is still in the bucket three days later. all I did was unplug the air pump. and i left the air stones sitting in the bucket with the tea bag. is it still good after sitting in my hot and humid garage 4 days later. should i still use that batch of tea thanks

[@BoogieBrew]

No, please do NOT apply this concoction. It has definitely SPOILED. Our tea is definitely "done" in 24 hours or even less in particularly warm conditions. Please remember to DRY the air stones out, (run air though the stones UNSUBMERGED for several hours). Also, please SANITIZE your stones by bubbling them in vinegar (and "drying" them out afterwards). Finally, thoroughly clean and scrub your bucket / brew bag, etc. Sorry for first time being a disaster, here to help you make it infinitely better!

[@jasonscreativeadventures3900]

ok thanks

[@BoogieBrew]

Jasons Creative Adventures: We apologize for any confusion regarding the importance of FRESHLY prepared tea being applied to your soil. Will try to emphasize that on future labels / brochures, etc.

[@ferrjerr]

Surprisingly there are a lot of negative comments. Not used to seeing that with John's videos. I worked on an organic farm for a few years and we always made and used aerated compost tea. It worked well for us because we had superior compost. Now that I'm a gardener I find that I my compost goes from good to just ok. To compensate I get my tea from Boogie Brew per John's recommendation. It's a great product and while my plants aren't "dancing" they are def. stronger and produce for longer than if I hadn't used it. But there are always other factors at play. For example you could have a unusually hot/cold summer, or a bad year with pests, etc. Compost tea won't solve all your problems but it will help the soil, no doubt. In a nutshell I don't grow plants as much as I grow my soil.

[@BoogieBrew]

This is precisely the kind of feedback we love! Thanks for the input Jerry, wise words indeed, (regarding environment changes, etc). Keep on brewin'.

[@MrTimjwilson]

One thing you got right. There is nothing better than fresh vericompost and if properly fed, homemade is the best.

[@HighDesertGarden]

***** John wouldn't use these products in his garden if he didn't believe that they worked. John is inspiring people to grow organically. There's nothing wrong with that.

[@HighDesertGarden]

***** Absolutely not. Clinton is a criminal.

[@HighDesertGarden]

***** I too do not believe in spending a lot of money on products. I have my own worm farm and make my own compost; however, not everyone has the resources to do what I do. If rock dust and compost tea work for them, that's great!

[@judymichaud4081]

I just got some boogie tea thanks guys. Let's see if they dance. I'm from maine and really need mold and mildew protection because of the climate.

[@fexummuk]

Im a gardener. It's my business. I focus on NOT using any chemical sprays at all which can be quite difficult to convince the client at times. After 12 months they begin to see and realise the damage cause by years of spraying. When we spray we add nicitanoids to the soil which do not break down and build up over time. It is said a farmer will use 4 truckloads worth of nicitanoids per year. Testing has found suburban areas contain approximately 10 truckloads worth per year. They are now finding glyphosate in mothers breast milk due to the amount of chemical being taken up by the food, not because they are drinking round-up. And so on and so forth. DO NOT USE CHEMICALS.

[@EthelynSchaefferHealer]

Will adding ANY NPK, such as in a soil mix, cause damage to the composting bacteria? Thanks

[@fexummuk]

If it contains anything that is unnatural, then yes. Basically. I make all of my soil from material ive either composted, dug out of the chicken run or the worm castings which live in an old iron bath tub and covered with a carpet. This is how I create all my veggie garden soil. If you only have a small veggie patch this is quite easy to achieve. If you want a great garden you need to do the ground work, start using NPK's and your plants wont last and your soil will turn hard and dry (AKA useless, may as well try growing in sand). If you cant do this, get wood chip throw it in a pile and let it break down, then use that (will take 12 months). NO NPK!!! do you go into the forest and see people placing NPK around all the ferns due to their need of a rich soil? NO YOU DONT! Do you see a herd of cows deficating in one area to fertilise the trees? NO YOU DONT! Do you see people running around with pesticides making sure all the bugs are dead? NO YOU DONT! Everytime somebody uses NPK its simply just another act of disrespect towards mother nature. To treat something so complex so simply. If you want something great you need to work on it. Just like you did growing up and discovering who you are. Took years. You need to start treating nature with the same kind of respect. Then you will begin to understand. Good luck.

So I had some trouble with my local "hydro" store when I bought a bag of boogie brew pro, I bought it, took it home to brew, but when I noticed it had no expiration date on it so I decided to call boogie brew HQ to get some help. I honestly was shocked to be talking to josh personally and he said that he bought a bag from a local hydro store and it was a year old, he said it brewed the same and the results were great. So after that he was kind enough to ask if I wanted to try a sample of the pure pure protein, which I gladly excepted as I am a cheap bastard haha. We shot the compost for a bit but I didn't want to keep him from his life so I thanked him again and went to "brew, baby brew". The kicker is that one part of my brew was missing from my boogie pro, so I email my info and my situation to boogie brew. The VERY NEXT DAY I GET A RESPONSE, THAT IS HOW GOOD BUSINESS IS DONE, they even called the store and helped me out big, I cannot thank them enough, I will be telling friends!✌

[@paulchristianguzman3324]

I use Boogie Brew Compost Tea & what a huge difference it had brought to my garden especially my fruit-bearing trees, they thrived (bigger leaf & fruits). In fact, our 30+ year old orange tree leaves were yellowish, small leaves & orange fruits & after applying boogie tea, frass, sea90 & pure protein for about a month ----boooom! the results are amazing. Leaves are greener & bigger than usual plus the oranges are much bigger like it used to. Slowly but surely. Thank you so much JK & Josh(boogie brew) for educating us on how to grow our food free from synthetic(chemical) fertilizers, You both are the #DynamicDuoMasterGardeners

[@MrTimjwilson]

You mention testing of teas at soil food labs. The only way to accurately test CT for microbial volumes is through direct microscopy, directly from the CT maker to the microscope. SFI uses weight projections for their bacterial and fungal volumes which (IMO) cannot be applied cross species. You say that Lyn at Microbial Matrix uses an electron microscope for CT, yet one cannot observe live organisms with an electron microscope. I'll ask her what this is about. I did not see the testing/analysis methods posted on the site like most accredited labs do.

[@BoogieBrew]

Apologize for speaking out of my ass, I do NOT pay attention enough to the finer points & details in life, honestly have no clue what scopes are used. Microbeman has been spreading the truth on soil life for years and offers great value on scope kits plus FREE education, (knowledge is everything).

[@MrTimjwilson]

Josh; Thank you for your replies. That is big of you. All I care about is people learning the truth. As you may realize some of these myths spread like wildfire. In another discussion recently, I was told that I could not possibly know what microbes were in soil & CT without an electron microscope. I would LOVE to have an electron microscope but they are useless for viewing living organisms. Thanks for the plug for the scopes but I quit selling them when the US dollar went too high and not many understood the value of my scopes over cheap Chinese scopes. Those of us in this industry should work to the best of our ability to educate growers so they know a little bit about the science. You and John mentioned the guy who ran the lab tests showing that compost tea is no good. You will see that I posted some comments at his video. He actually could have got the lab to test for meaningful things but he lacked the initial knowledge base to ask the right questions. Direct microscopy should have been used and importance given to flagellate & naked amoebae (protozoa) counts in addition to the bacteria/archaea and fungi. Everyone who is making ACT should consider building airlifts. The capacity of an airlift to increase dissolved oxygen is phenomenal. It is math & science - no escaping it. There is a reason airlifts are used in laboratory bioreactors and have been for years.

Hey fellas! Anything necessary or recommended to add in addition to boogie brew for flowering cannabis? ...thanks for the video btw

[@BoogieBrew]

Yes: Add a wicked top dressing, (bloom-specific), made from guano powders, etc. An excellent value would be "Rainbow Mix Pro Bloom" (by Earth Juice). Just 'scratch-in' to topsoil and activate / digest with BB Heavy Harvest Tea! Unreal results.....

[@interestingyoutubechannel1]

For flowering & fruiting any kind of plant, you can just encourage/maximize it by adding a little potash (potassium) when the flowering stage starts. Simply, ash from hardwood (from your stove/campfire) is an organic amendment entirely of potash, with virtually zero for other macronutrients. You can experiment by adding this to your compost tea during the flowering stage, or just to incorporate straight in the pots/soil. Ash will be liming your soil/medium as well. Main thing is not to go overboard with it, obviously, otherwise you'll get salts building up too much.

[@bkul44]

love it watching these two, they should start a show together !!

[@greenmind3688]

what you think of photsynthesis plus?

[@chessy51]

how long is it good for in a 55l barrel with a fish tank air pump

[@michaelstack7015]

Can compost and banana teas be combined?

[@DonQuixote03]

First time wholesale medical Oklahoma greenhouse grow. Going organic. Thanks guys.

[@GrowingUpGarden]

Thanks for the shoutout Josh. Compost tea definitely works. My garden is the biggest it's ever been. So far I have harvested over 400 lb. of produce this season from my front yard raised bed garden. See for yourself, here is a tour video of my garden I made 3 weeks ago kzbin.info/www/bejne/eovGYZ2eYrCNqrc

[@BoogieBrew]

Growing Up Garden: Hell yeah!! Everyone go check out G.U.G's amazing series of videos, well worth watching in their entirety!

[@GrowingUpGarden]

Boogie Brew Thanks Josh

[@davidbrown9458]

When I start my tea, I use water from my planted aquarium. Any issues with that

[@michaelfoote2842]

Can you do a side by side test with some different plants some with tea n some without I just started a worm farm with my granddaughter I want to make my tea from worm poop to brewing tea

[@nc4801]

Josh - I may be four years late on the question, but I was wondering if there are any potential health risks of foliar spraying of compost. Is it alright if these sprays of compost touch food?

[@articmars1]

Yea its fine to use like that. But ad always wash it really well before consumption

[@Jonathan-tr9tx]

I think John should do a side by side comparison

[@Bleederdave420]

wow this stuff sounds wonderful!! i wish i could try it somehow im in so cal is there any places around?

[@aguywhomakesthings3316]

Anyone ever try using compost tea in a deep water culture hydropnic system? Does it even have nutrients in it with the ability to feed plants alone or is this only an addition to help boost your nutrients in the soil?

[@MrTimjwilson]

I've read through some of the comments and listened to about half the video. I heard no mention indicating any knowledge of how ACT actually works, no mention of how the microbial nutrient cycle works. John makes a big deal out of the fact that Boogie Brew (BB) provides recipes for free, Well others did this prior to BB. I have written to John on several occasions to offer to actually educate him about compost tea and living soil but he has continuously ignored me. There is a key way that ACT has the most benefit. It is not just about bacteria. You guys mention good bacteria and bad bacteria. Please do elucidate.

[@BoogieBrew]

John should DEFINITELY have you as a guest. There's INFINITELY MORE knowledge out there than the limited tid-bits of info that Boogie offers, (we admit our tea is nothing more than a bulk-granola blend of dry ingredients). We have NEVER tried to make claims of bacterial / fungal superiority with our products, we just feel they offer great value to the end-brewers, many of whom, (certainly yourself included!), create far more wicked batches of biology than we could ever dream of! Folks like Microbeman with such in-depth knowledge offer talents that everyone can learn from! Ability to make Super-Boogie. (Microbial / fungal cocktails etc). It takes endless passion, scientific-mindset & dedication....just look at the seed-soak / oatmeal knowledge - that alone is huge....it goes on and on.

[@donpatton2191]

Can you use compost tea in hydroponics?

[@sweetvuvuzela4634]

Don Patton for sure

[@MGLuxuryRental]

do you need to worry about the ph level for the water?

[@natas12rm]

does compost tea work on cocoa?

[@MILEHIGHTREETOPZ]

how and when to use the foundation?

[@BoogieBrew]

Dust the roots on transplant, or water in solution into the topsoil, (again, best time is during transplant or periods of rapid root growth, etc)

[@MILEHIGHTREETOPZ]

+Boogie Brew hey thanks a lot. I got a kit and didn't know what it was. visited your channel, and I was wanting to ask if maybe you can drop some vids on how to apply all the new boogie products. Also you should load all the vids you do with John on your channel they're great content. thanks for the reply, and any consideration.

[@naturesvoice4890]

[@dufmc]
