I found the basis for this recipe here: https://www.icmag.com/ic/showthread.php?t=53792
I put the dry ingredients in a nylon stocking and steep it in the wet ingredients while aerating for 24-36 hours
Veg:
5 gal RO Water
1/3 Cup EWC (I use wiggle worm brand 1-0-0)
1/3 Cup Peruvian Seabird guano (Sunleaves 10-10-2)
1 Tbs Molasses
5 Tsp General Organics Diamond Black
4 oz Maxicrop Liquid Seaweed (0-0-1)
Bloom:
5 gal RO water
2/3 Cup EWC
2/3 Cup Seabird guano
2/3 Cup Jamaican bat guano (Sunleaves 1-10-.2)
2 Tbs Technaflora Soluble Seaweed (1-1-16)
2 Tbs Molassas
5 Tbs GO Diamond Black
In veg I use the tea every 3rd watering. In bloom every other watering. I would also advise going easy on the seabird guano in early veg until you know the plants can handle a full dose. These recipes have been working great for me. Good luck.

I use per liter:
1 tbsp blackstrap molasses
20ml. Seaweed extract
1/4 cup worm castings
1/4cup soil broken from roots of local dandelion
1 tsp bean/legume myco powder
1/2 tsp brewers yeast
1/8 tsp 10-15-10 Shultz AP w/ micronute
All in about 1 liter filtered tap water, airstone bubbled for 24-36 hours.
As for worm castings, I have read that it varies based on what the worms eat, and the typeof worms. They change soil texture and impact microbial life positively. Good stuff, organic.

[
however, super simple was a stretch.. Here's super simple:
But first,
That's too long to brew
The golden ratio as proven my microbeMans huge farm, 2500 gallon batches of tested teas, and research showed that;
1) 2.38% of DIY EWC
And
2) 0.5% BSM
was the most effective,
efficient microbe tea possible.
If your soil was well made there is no need for anything else..
All the NPK is the soil already..
That's 1.5 Tbsp of EWC, and 1 tsp of BSM per Litre of Ro
36-40 hours is ideal for peak (aerobic) populations.
Beyond that, anaerobic conditions prevail
Ask our 27 week Sativa that's been fed water for over 100 days already.. She's extremely healthy and happy, and soon, bountiful too
