Guide 1: Compost Tea 

Best for: gardeners already brewing compost tea or working with living soil systems

Why choose this method

Adding Flora Bella Bio Trace at the start of a compost tea brew allows trace minerals to interact directly with beneficial microbes as they multiply. This supports biological activity and helps unlock nutrients already present in the soil.

Step-by-step instructions

  1. Prepare your compost tea as usual.

  2. Add 1 tablespoon of Flora Bella Bio Trace per gallon of tea.

  3. Add Flora Bella at the beginning of the brew.

  4. Aerate and brew according to your normal compost tea process.

  5. Apply as a soil drench.

Tips

  • Use immediately after brewing for best results

  • Works well alongside worm castings and microbial inoculants


General Use Notes

  • Suitable for vegetables, herbs, flowers, and ornamentals when used as directed

  • Designed to support living soil systems, not replace them

  • Avoid overapplication—trace minerals work best in balance
