Developed with a proprietary technique, the VermisTerra Earthworm Casting Tea is an excellent soil conditioner that helps increase the ecological diversity and vitality of the soil. Cycling plant and root waste into a usable plant food, in turn reducing the need for fertilizers.
- Bolster Plant Strength: With the Tea providing available nutrients and the microbes enriching the soil, plants will healthy and thrive.
- Reduced Exposure To Harmful Chemicals: With VermisTerra Earthworm Casting Tea can reduce the need for chemical fertilizers and pesticides. This keeps you, your children and pets safe as well as being helpful to the environment.
- Bountiful and Consistent Nutrient Usage: High amount of nutrition are released through the workings of many micro-organisms within VermisTerra Earthworm Casting Tea in addition to the nutriment already present. The microbes break the available nutrients down to be easily picked up by plants.
- Improves Soil Structure: Microbes in the teas have the ability to create pore spaces in the soil. More oxygen are able to penetrate into the soil for even more biological activities to occur. As well as plant roots can root into the soil more easily. Well structured soil also soaks up water like sponge to retain water for longer periods.
Double your efforts by using VermisTerra HydroSpiral and VermisTerra Earthworm Casting Tea together. HydroSpiral is the best way to deliver VermisTerra Tea directly to where it matters most. This liquid nutrient, packed with beneficial bacteria, works deep in the soil through deep root irrigation, helping your plants thrive and grow vigorously.
Please see "USAGE GUIDE" in DOCS tab for application instructions
Application frequency: Working with nature takes time. You might see results immediately if your plants are weak, other will see increasing results in 6 months or more. The key is to use VermisTerra tea consistently, ideally every 7-14 days. You can use it more or less often depending on your time, budget, amount of other amendments being used and how much you want to push your plants.
Mixing instructions:
- VermisTerra tea works well with other soil amendments, Neem, Garlic Barrier, fertilizers and even pesticides. The pH is 4.3 so mixing it with tap water usually will bring the pH to an optimal level for all other products. You can mix with other products when foliar spraying. If using other fertilizers or amendments, reduce them by 50-70% the suggested rate. This is because the microbes can accelerate decomposition, and aid in absorption.
- If you are using raw materials like compost, wood shavings, bark, guano, manure- take care to reduce these to only 20% of the soil.The microbes in the tea will accelerate their decomposition, turning them into plant food. If you have too much raw material in the soil, they will require Nitrogen to break down and will pull it from the plant causing leaf burn. The plant will recover in 1-2 weeks and bounce back happily, but you can avoid this stress by using less raw material.
- When using other fertilizers and amendments like fish emulsion, reduce them to 50-70% of their suggested rate. The microbes in VermisTerra tea can enhance absorption and aid in availability to the plant, so you can use less for the same results.
Environment: Ideal for outdoor use
Storage: Do not allow to freeze
Shelf Life: VermisTerra Tea lasts 1-2 years if stored between 40-90°F and kept from freezing. Once you add water to the concentrate, the microbes activate and the solution should be used up within 48 hours. It's normal for there to be some sediment at the bottom, and small floating white particles (these are bacteria colonies).
