Im wanting to build my own system for brewing compost tea. What type of air pump (size, brand, etc) do i look for when i go to buy one? I believe it was your diy video i watched previously, i just dont recall the pump size or make of it. I got the rest of the parts list memorized. Very simple. Thanks so very much.
@ChittyChittyBangin
Do you think i could pick one up like that at Menards? And that’s exactly what i needed to know the gph.
I doubt it. You might have better luck at a coop or something. I know lowes doesnt carry them.
Ok ill just have to wait it out for amazon to deliver me one. Last question: the fitting that comes out of the pump. Do i need to change the size of it to fit the 3/4 line? If so, what is the size it comes out of the pump to start with?
Youll want 3/8 hose. Are you building an air lift? But no, you dont have to change the fitting. Get 2 metal clamps for the hose
Yes. Ok 3/8. Hey you’re awesome growmie… i don’t care what they say about you… jk… seriously thanks i appreciate you
@ChittyChittyBangin
Ok got the exact pump you suggested ordered and will be here on Wednesday. We’re cooking with gas now… well actually air but…
@ChittyChittyBangin
We’re rollin’ now!!! Whatcha think Chitty? Look ok?..
Rock on dude!! I would set that in a storage bin of some sort just incase of splash over. Rememebr to start your pump before submerging so it will prime on the way down.
Copy that sir! Will do. Gonna be sitting in my basement next to my sump so splash over will be ok. Hey thanks again for sharing the awesome tip. Up one level for me in the growing game. Super excited…
@ChittyChittyBangin
Oh and if you have an extra say 1.5 inch piece of pvcsave it … get some micron compost tea bags and use that piece to tie the string off so the bag is dirctly under the spigot
Is that something i can buy locally or just off amazon mainly? Do you have a picture/example you can share?
@ChittyChittyBangin
Would i then fill such bag with the worm castings, sea bird guano and molasses like a tea bag? Just trying to visualize the end contraption.
@ChittyChittyBangin
@ChittyChittyBangin
Ok last question, then I’ll leave you alone. Many brands of seabird guano, what am i aiming for? 0-11-0??? Which one you use?
@ChittyChittyBangin
O ok! So you just hang the bag in the water not necessarily around the spigot, correct? And great, thats the exact ingredients (guano, molasses) i have. Clears that up too. Appreciate ya growmie!
Whe i go back out ill shoot you a pic of what im referring to
I forgot but heres one of @Docnraq
Hey thanks! I get it all set up, ill probably have another question or two for ya if you don’t mind.
