I've had the latest start I've ever had this yeah ...due to a mouse and then a theif ...last year I was getting ready to put my plants in there 45 gal and 100 gal smart pots...lol....I have seedlings basically and two that are a four or 5 nodes high...plus I'm running low on funds so I'm trying to conserve everything...soil I'm good but my nutes I make my tea are in short supply.. so I'm wondering if I make a nutrient tea...aerated tea..not a microbial tea ...something like some bat shit.. sea bird..kelp..kelp meal..tm7...rabbit shit..and I might toss a hand full of the compost I made in it ...I'll use some on my roses but I want to know if I could just store it in a gal jug and not have any problems...I figure I'll store it in a cool dark place but will it go bad?:..and if so how long before it does ...I know a microbial tea can be stored but I use those as soon as they are done ...I just want to store it till I switch from the solos to the gal pots and give it a shot of microbial tea then the nute tea if needed ...one of my bigger plants is doing great but the other is droopy and it's not overwatered and has yellowing on the lower part...ima flush it and if it still is being a jerk off im gonna hit it with a lil if that nute tea.....so after that book I wrote...can I store a nute tea for a pretty long time w.o any problems

Store the water and add the nutes the day before you use the tea. Otherwise I can see it going rotten after 4-5 days. Unless you store it in the fridge.

On the rabbit crap. Has it been composted first?

just be absolutely certain it's not something other than a nutrient issue man
droopy leaves typically aren't an indication of any nutrients issues, more so an issue with water or possible anaerobic conditions.
if they are both in the same soil mix i'd be surprised if it was a deficiency, considering one is ok and the other isn't.
I highly recommend NOT storing any homemade teas, they can ferment and create plant toxins of all sorts
hydrogen sulfide, butyric acid, various types of alcohol, ammonia, etc.
also can create harmful or potentially dangerous microbes as well, like the pathogen Clostridium botulinum (botulism) amongst others
not to mention the anaerobic microbes will foster pathogenic bacteria that will kill off the beneficial aerobic ones..
i'd just store the ingredients you have and use it/make tea when needed.
but I would make SURE your other plant that is droopy actually needs nutrients before adding any..

I mix the bunny poop right into my soil and the plants love it. I don't include it in my teas because it breaks down very quickly in the soil anyway.

I like to use it w kelp meal and just some good soil ...feed the microbes and you have a good simple mix

Ya always got my back man..I was just gonna pm you lol but I kinda figured it wasn't a nute issue...the mix should be more than enough for these little turds ... it's not and anaerobic prob I don't believe ... the One plant is taking off and very healthy looking ...leaves pray a lot and all that jazz...the plant in concern isn't as tall..same amount of nodes ...about to be topped actually.... but I let the soil dry all the way out and flushed it w rain water ...I was and prob should of just used rain water but I brewed some kelp I had sent to me and i put a little splash of the pure kelp brew into my rain water ......I added a few more lights...bought a heating pad to put under the crate the solo cups are in....if this damn weather ...mice..and thieves would fuck off id be settin pretty....and grease...I think I can but I wanna ask ... can I use my 7500k to take a cutting and just switch my timer to 12 12...the big light is 7300k and I may have a 5000k or two in there as well...and last q...would u use cloneing gel, aloe, a rapid rooter or just stick it in some water ...like if you really wanted to know sex...and how soon does it show...week or two?

IF you do it right. Store it right. Feed it right.

Google Bokashi

Fermented Plant Extracts

BIM

Lactobacillus Serum.

Check the unconventional farmer out too if you like, he has the recipes on his site, albeit a bit crude looking.

The homie @SSGrower can also lend a hand, perhaps, if he'd be so kind, he is making long term nutrient ferments as well
