High Brix Tea

A comprehensive, nourishing, organic, home-made

spray & drench to:

                       --Raise Brix (plant sap’s dissolved sugars & minerals indicating nutrient density) 

                       --Repel pests & disease

                       --For seedlings, vegetables, flowers, fruits, trees

Typically, South Central Alaskan soils lack boron (B) and are low in calcium (Ca). These minerals are essential but deficient.  The lack of B & Ca prohibits other minerals from fully functioning for plant growth & health.   This home-made liquid addresses these deficiencies & make other minerals availabe.

Boron is tricky it’s needed in parts per million (ppm).  A ppm is equivalent to 1 tsp in a conex shipping container volume.  Boron above 2 parts per million is toxic.  Below 0.8 ppm is a deficiency.   So do not over-do.  Don’t throw left-overs in the compost (or greatly dilute & spread it out).

Measurements           3 tsp = 1 Tbs.         4 Tbs = ¼ cup.          16 Tbs = cup            16 cups= 1 gallon

Use as a foliar or a drench application, or both at once.

Be sure to label and date everything!

--What difficulties did you have?

--If there is a scientist in you, try half a row of crops with and half the row crop without.  See what you observe.
