In my travels through thousands of pages, Botanical studies, and Organic experts. I found this Tea Recipe. Where I live, wild Willows are over abundant. If you use Organic Tea Recipes in your Organic grow technique, you don't want to miss this one.
Willow tea is a good source of auxins, gibberellins and cytokinins (all growth regulators/Hormones, and natural plant stress protectors).
In spring, cut six-inch (15-centimetre) lengths of willow tips with swollen buds (the buds contain the hormones), crushing them slightly with a hammer, and soak them in boiling water. When the water has cooled, strain out the twigs and use the tea to soak seeds and water plants into their new holes.
Use the willow tea immediately or freeze for future use.Try working with a ratio of one thick handful of willow tips to two quarts (two litres) of boiling water. Any specie of willow has the same strong rooting hormones.
This is the way I found this tea recipe. Though it says "use immediately", I will be brewing some as soon as the wild willows show up. I plan on aerating some, and brewing up to 10 days or so, as I do with other teas.
The key "may" be the aeration (as it usually is Aerobic Microbes we're dealing with in these teas). When I find that this is or isn't a problem, I will post back to this thread.
I will most likely use this tea as a base solution to add my Kelp or Alfalfa. I bought a little $5 aquarium pump for aeration.
Give it a shot. These Organic hormones can really be a powerful addition. I've seen a large difference in my clones since I've been using many of these natural organic hormone providers, and the cost is minimal.
