i LEFT OUT THE KELP. WORKING TOO LATE AT NIGHT. tHIS IS WHAT i SHOULD HAVE=
 WRITTEN FOR THE RECIPES.....



Since you bought Alaska Humus, try the pre fungal inoculation and then only=
 add humic acid AND KELP, for the first tea you make with it. You will get =
great fungal numbers and great bacterial numbers if your machine is any goo=
d! I have posted results.

Don't make the mistake of loading up too much junk. And don't make the mist=
ake of experimenting with all your variables at once. Testing is expensive.=
 Do it scientifically until you are able to make what you want with as litt=
le effort and expense as possible.

Alaska Humus plus fungal inoculants mixed, and allow the fungus to grow...m=
ake the tea after the fungal mycelium appear and spread...

If you want high bacteria with Alaska Humus, skip the pre fungal inoculatio=
n. The Bacteria numbers are quite high as is the diversity.

If you want balance, just a tad of molasses half way through the brew using=
 pre inoculated (fungal) AH......USE HALF THE KELP AS IN FUNGAL

Cheers

Jeff
