Using worm tea for the first time

19 years ago

Hi All!

I'm completing just over a year of indoor vermicomposting and would like to use "worm tea" as an additive to the plants I will be starting indoors in a few weeks. I have a question coming in two parts regarding the use of the tea.

First:

In most of what I've read from the Forum it is recommended that; "Worm tea should be used within 24 hours of the time it's brewed".

Can someone tell me why such a short time as I was going to, or thinking about making a gallon or two ahead and using it as needed.

Second:

How often can I use the tea on seedlings, or on a more mature plant as they grow? Can it be used on a regular watering basis when plants need moisture or at intervals during regular watering? In other words will it be to strong to be used regularly?

Thanks in advance

Jim
