Composta Tea Vs Nutes and other questions

Hello,

I have always been interested in using compost tea's for the last few years. I have never really made the jump on using them. From my understanding when using compost tea's you don't have to feed normal nutrients such as the stuff I've been using which is mainly the house and garden line. The guy at the hydrostore said I was wrong and people feed tea's on every other or third feeing along with normal feed schedule. I use Sunshine Advance Mix #4.

Do i use compost tea's with my normal nute schedule?

Can I still use anything from my normal nute schedule?

If I can use anything from my nute schedule must it be organic? example N.U.T.S, Bannaa Manna and Organic Thrive Alive?

Can I still use roots excelurator even though its not organic?

Any information would be greatly appreciated.

thanks

compost tea is usually used to boost microbial life, additional amendments can be added to the tea to supplement other fertilizers or organic fertilizers can be added to the tea after its done brewing. If you are using just compost tea with nothing else added treat it as you would water in your normal feeding schedule as it doesnt contain too much nutritional value.
