| I do not know what is in rapid grow but if it is just a nutrient like Miracle Grow it will work. I routinely add a worm compost tea to my hydroponics sump and circulate it through for an hour before changing my nutrient. The old nutrient is used in my traditional dirt gardens with excellent results. Better than just the nutrients alone did before I started with the worm compost tea. The benefit to the hydroponics is equally impressive. Be sure to aerate the tea well and use it right after you finish brewing. Plus you should feed the good bacteria in the tea with molasses to get optimal growth of the beneficial bacteria. I made one of these vortex mixer to brew the tea and it works very well. |
