Welcome to the forum Haidaman :wave:

Should be OK to do this but if it contains any fresh unprocessed warm blooded animal manure then I'd probably say no. You could also spray the tea on the plants without putting it in the water often this will keep the nutrients from being bound in forms the plants can't get at (since pH of the water is less of an issue).

I have been doing this for the past month, it seems to be making a difference. Best of all it seems to be supplying iron as I haven't needed to add any.

I'm using castings in a sock with ap water, mollases, em, then aerated for 24hrs until there's a nice froth.

Be carefull not to add too much. be, like, super conservative.
It's good right at the start of a system for introducing nitrification bacteria early (before the fish start pooping)
