Suståne® Compost Tea Bags 

Why compost teas? 

There are multiple benefits to using compost teas. More than supplementary nutrients, composts teas deliver humic substances that can act as biostimulants and active microorganisms that can contribute to nutrient cycling and the ecology of a healthy soil. 

Sustane Compost Tea Bags can be applied as a brewed liquid using watering cans or applied directly to the root zone as a root zone feeder pack.

Many reports indicate that compost teas increase plant tolerance to biotic and abiotic stresses, reducing the need for other inputs. 

Make an enriched compost tea for superior results. Suståne’s Compost Tea Bags have been proven to support improved plant growth. Once brewed, it blends well with Suståne’s Hi-N 12-0-1 WDF (Water Dispersible Fertilizer) to make an enriched compost tea with superior characteristics!
