The quality of this product is 5-star. I only gave 4 because there's not enough to go very far, and the price is high. I could barely do one 2-gallon plant with this. I don't fault the vendor for the price; shipping is a big part of it. Let's face it, it's not efficient to pay for shipping individual bags of dirt. It works better to go to a local seller who gets stuff by the truckload. That said, I can't buy this particular product locally. I'm resorting to buying cheap topsoil, buying separate acid, and mixing myself. If you have something expensive and small to plant, this will be an excellent choice.

I have a small area for plants , I bought this fertilizer because it is recommended for plants that like acid soil. I place it in the hole I have dug for my hygrangea plant. It is growing so pretty I can’t wait for spring so I can put in more plants.

It really does the job and doesn’t take but a small amount if you have your acid loving plant in a pot rather than in the ground. It does the job and remember to check , there are many plants that want acidic soil and that might be the problem if you can’t figure out what is wrong with your beloved plant

It is important to pay attention to the nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium amounts that are good for flowering plants. Within 2 weeks my hibiscus and bougainvillea are blooming beautiful.

Your setup may handle it fine. I make worm casting tea for my plants. I use a small water pump to pump anything that settles back up into the suspension of the water. The problem I have is that this material does not completely break down in water. Fine for any other other use they list probably. It may be fine for compost tea if u use strictly air stones. However the material that does not break down sinks, it could build up in the bottom of your brew and go anaerobici.
