worm casting 'tea' is a very good gently organic fertilizer, can also be used as a top dressing and just watered in. worm castings are great, find you some.

for compost tea....which is great.....just like hip said.....I do this... 1.)get yourself a five gallon bucket.... 2.)add some non-clorinated water (we want the organisms to live) 3.)Set up a an aquarium air pump with an air stone for aeration...and make sure it circulates the water as well by pumping air through a tube which is under the top of the water...... 4.)Then use a mesh compost pouch(i use nylons) as a filter....which will allow our micro-organisms and fungal hyphae to mix into the tea 5.) add your favorite organic fertilizer, worm castings, kelp powder (great microbial food) and humic acid(great catalyst)........and brew for a day or two..... you will have a great tea that will fight disease, improve the soil and generate great growth for the plant.......is can also be sprayed onto the leaves directly.....

you dont really need rooting hormone for salvia... just plain water work very well... and im sure your could just take the cutting..and put it directly into really moist soil ..im positive it will roots... but I like to root my cutting in water..that way I can really see the roots...and I know when they are ready to be planted in soil... but just try it! and post the result..

a tried a salvia cutting once but it was in such bad shape when i got it that it did not root.....i think it was just to damaged to make it........but i will try again someday with good cutting and i am sure everything will work just fine |
