Can Green Tea Be Used Like Alfalfa Tea?
Comments (6)I've been using alfalfa for years and reading this forum for years and I've never heard of triacontanol. I have read on occasion that there was a growth stimulator in alfalfa, but I would never use a material simply for that reason. The reason I use alfalfa (or corn meal, or corn gluten meal, or wheat flour, or coffee grounds, or soybean meal, or cottonseed meal) is that it feeds protein to the soil microbes. If you want to feed protein to your soil microbes indoors, I dilute milk in water and water with that. If you water a pure peat mix with milky water for three weeks, the soil will completely change as the soil fungi take off. The soil will even smell different (after the slightly sour milk smell dissipates). It will smell incredibly fresh and clean. I tried dusting the soil with coffee grounds to get the protein from them, but the milk worked 1000% better....See MoreFukien Tea - wilting, dry green leaves? HELP!
Comments (5)I think most of your problem is humidity - FT's NEED lots of it and I'm actually quite surprised at how well it did in the orig. office (last place I'd ever recommend for one anytime). You can arrange a wide (quite a bit more so than the pot is) tray of some kind with at least 1" high sides. Fill that with pebbles and water - the pot will go on top, but make very sure the water does not reach the drain holes or you'll rot roots. Keep up the water and as much really strong light as you can for as much of the day as possible... and you should be ok in a few wks. Resist the temptation to overwater (to water too often). Better let some of the soil now dry out before doing it again - your old system has changed things and while more humidity is needed, less water may be (for now). Btw, do you know how cold (or not) it gets overnight in the office? Or what happens over the wknds?...See MoreBlack tea vs green tea
Comments (2)Lately I have been drinking oolong. I like the taste. As I understand, it is between green tea and black tea. For me, green tea doesn't have much flavor, but I have drunk a lot of green tea....See MoreFlavoured tea suggestions
Comments (12)I am not usually a tea drinker but am hooked on a tea called sweet and spicy made by Good Earth. It is hard to find around here so I have ordered directly from the company. The taste is very hard to describe but it is sweet and spicy and some of the ingredients are organic cinnamon, chicory root, lemongrass, ginger root, peppermint, orange peel. It is sooo good....See MoreAnglophilia
