Compost Tea Fights Pests & Diseases & Increases Productivity! Thank you Diablo Tools for your continued Channel Support! www.diablotools.com/recip?bram...

Having big, productive plants you rarely have to water, that are naturally pest and disease resistant all comes down to having good soil and the RIGHT kind of nutrients available directly to your plants, and compost tea is the ticket. Compost tea is the perfect brew of good bacteria, worm castings (vermiculture), Create your own CHEAP organic fertilizer by building a compost tea brewer! What if your soil needs some fixing? Stop buying expensive organic fertilizers and putting questionable chemicals on the food you eat, and start brewing your own compost tea, which is basically like instant soil fixing goodness. Think of compost tea like probiotics... for your garden! Worm tea, or compost tea made with worm castings, brewed in a bucket like this, aerated by an external air pump, creates a quick and easy diy liquid fertilizer that goes directly onto the leaves and into the roots of your plants. Compost tea is the perfect compliment to my back to eden style garden, as bigger, healthier plants leave less bare soil, help the soil retain more moisture so we don't have to water as often, and even promotes healthier root systems in the plants so there's just as much going on BELOW the soil as ABOVE it! Does compost tea work? Absolutely.

I've got a pliars like PVC cutter works great on up to 1 1/4" pipe, got it at the irrigation pipe supply place, I've got 2 different types of compost tea makers, 55 gallon drum with spigot, then I take a 5 gallon plastic bucket with lid drill a bunch of holes in it, put hardware mesh on the inside and fill w/lawn clippings , I put 2 of those in a barrel let steep for 7 days till it's good and stinky! The other is a huge compost pile, with a sprinkler on top then I dug a hole on the downhill side of it, put a 12 volt bilge pump in it, pump that to some connected 55 gallon barrels, then a hose to a 12 volt 5.5 gallon pump. Then it goes off to a sprinkler that I move whenever it pumps out roughly 25 gallons, move it. the sprinkler is a rotary type that covers roughly 20 X 40 footprint. The stinkier the tea the better it works! The compost pile compost tea I'm sprinkling on my hay field as I haven't put synthetic pesticides/fertilizers since 1995, still waiting to see if there's any great growth or darker hay on that one. Next year I'll hook up my harbor freight solar panels to the 2 12 volt batteries rather then charging on the battery charger hooked to the grid.

Hi Anne! This is such a great introduction to this technique, is something like this useful for those of us with vegetable beds on our balconies etc? Also for the 'tea bag', are you worried about it shedding microplastics over time? I'll bet that's not nearly as important as the incredible benefit from this tea, but I wonder what would happen in vegetable patches cared for over years in this way.
@AnneofAllTrades
@AnneofAllTrades 3 жыл бұрын
For balcony gardens, the brewer I've got is going to make way too much, but you can do this on a much smaller scale and in a lower tech way by just using weed clippings, coffee grounds, wood ash, tums tablets, epsom salts, medicinal herbs, and, all kinds of other things and stirring the ingredients a few times a day over a few day period in a 5 gallon bucket. In the brewer I've got the bag is made of fabric, so I don't think microplastics are a concern, but even if they were, they aren't something I personally would spend a ton of effort thinking about, because there are a lot of other things that could potentially have a much more significant effect in a much shorter time period than the compost bag in my tea brewer if that makes sense... There are also different bags or options you can use though if it was a genuine concern.

Interesting! No worries about burning you plants with this brew? I assume by fallowing your recipe closely it won’t. I manage a rural water district and you are correct about air stripping the tap water. It will remove residual chlorine and ammonia that we use to disenfect potable water. Some water plants actually use air stripping towers to remove undesireable components from source water such as iron and manganese before the disenfection process.

Why not install the tap as closest to the bottom as one can? Is the eventual sediment "bad" (though I would think it is the exact opposite)? If I were to do this, I would buy a much smaller -- and quieter -- pump, along with a wee solar panel, and just leave it outside for 3-4-.. days. Or am I missing something? Also, can you "over-brew" the compost, or can it stay in the bin indefinitely? TY!

When discussing compost tea, it is important to acknowledge the significant contributions of Dr. Elaine Ingham. She authored the seminal publication "The Compost Tea Brewing Manual," which has become the core reference guide and "bible" for anyone looking to deeply understand the science and methodology of compost tea.

I admittedly had never heard of Dr. Elaine when I filmed this video, but I’ve since read and watched tons of material she has put out and you’re right, she deserves credit for synthesizing so much of the science that’s now part of the gardening vernacular

If your worm castings smell bad then they went anaerobic. Worm castings should smell good. I would empty the bucket and spread it out so it can go aerobic. In a couple days it should start smelling good and just keep not so wet and turn it every so often so doesn't go anaerobic.

So, where do you get these 5 gallon buckets of ingredients? And, why is this better than breaking down your own waste products like kitchen and yard scraps? I mean, the traditional composting method uses waste to help improve your garden. This method is going to add to your budget and cost more to buy these ingredients, right? I'm just trying to understand. Do you still use "waste compost" too? Is it an add on, or is it a complete switch over system?

This just an add on- and can be done in a much cheaper, slower, low tech, higher sweat equity way as well, as I showed in my “fixing your soil” video referenced here ;) adding mechanical power here just speeds up the process, as it often does in other applications as well. I get bulk ingredients through group buys when I can find a discount or just order online.

Are you thinking about making a worm farm? I've seen cool barrel types where you just give it a turn now and again and the casings fall into a collection box. That's good "tea" too,,,And what about "bio-char"? Supposed to be good stuff.,,And pea-sized red brick chunks, for drainage and moisture control, maybe soak them in "tea", make them a home for "good" microbes. Lots of ideas on KZbin, why not throw them all together and see what happens. The barrel-wormfarm could be a cool build,,,just some "food 4 thought"... ;-)>....

Stay tuned on the vermicompost front! Another fun use for a packing box is upcoming :) Biochar is great, I used it all the time in Seattle, wood ash is also a great addition to your compost tea. Interesting point on the brick chunks, I've not seen that but will look into it. I suppose that's a similar concept to putting it in our woodchips which also act as a sponge and slow-release for the fertilizer.

Compost normally would not have alcohol producing bacteria as the alcohol would kill off the others. Composting speeds up the breakdown of molecules into simpler ones. Brewing often is creating larger, more complex molecules.

I'm currently reading a book about dyslexia, written by a dyslexic, and realized that the reason I have always struggled with reading comprehension and following directions is because I think like a dyslexic! I just don't do the seeing things backwards, except I often write p as b, and vice versa. For 30+ years I just thought that was a funny quirk about me, also my eyes like to see things individually instead of forming an image together.

@@AnneofAllTrades I have a food grade drum I was gonna use for water collection but I've decided to make one of these instead, but have a few questions if you have time: 1. you use a monster air pump. You don't mention the size but your'e moving lots of air. You have suggestions on air flow capacity? (looking for a cheap but effective solution) 2. Are the ingredients that critical? I would think any biology would do, like scraps from the garden brewed in the tank....circle of life an all. 3. why are you keeping this inside and not out in the garden? I would think the heat from the sun would help but might there be an explosion potential brewing up biology?
