Hey so i just started a few plants and have been refreshing some old recycled soil. Needed a little more water for the bin, so mixed equal parts (1/4 tsp) em1 and coconut water powder in a half gallon of water. I know typically molasses is used in conjunction with the em1, but are any of you using the coconut as the "food source" to activate the microbes? Also, is this pointless to add these together and then water in immediately? I assume it would be ideal to extend the em then use that, but i have a lot of oldish em1 that i never really used, so figured it can't hurt to use it a bit.

I appreciate any thoughts or experiences with either product you all have.

I use coconut water 1 tbsp per l every watering or 4 tbsp p gallon. Straight from the coconut aswell as molasses

Best practice would be compost tea add coconut water afterwards or youll have a ph lower than 5
