Ok, so I understand the difference between growing 'tea' and PG Tips/from a tea pot.

Recently I read about using tea (from a pot) on rose bushes and that somehow it benefitted the plant. As a result ive been adding a bit to my water mix just to try something different and seems to work reasonably well.

Whilst browsing through my cupboards i found Twinnings Wild Berry Infusion tea.
Has anyone ever tried adding some to a water mix in attempt to flavour the plant? im already using molasses but though it would be cool if it was possible to use these herbal teas to make bud taste like cinnamon and berries!

let me know if anyone has tried it OR if they think it could do any damage to the plant. the reason i ask is that if no-one else has tried it but everyone say its gonna be safe Id be more inclined to try and let you all know

ummm. i've never heard anyone actually putting 'hot tea' in there plants.

it doesn't sound like it would hurt the plants(?), but i wouldn't do it. i look at each feeding time as a chance to push the plant to produce as best it can.

i should probably mention i dont mean a freshly brewed tea. i should have mentioned it was cold and had been bubbled for 48hrs

still sounds like a crazy idea to me.

give her ferts. that's what she needs to grow. teas are just steeped leaves and fruits. designed for taste, not nutrients.
