Used earthpods as a tea! Excellent!
I have been using these for around 2-3m now. I've submitted a review under the pods several times but amazon has had issues getting it posted. I strongly feel this company deserves to be noticed to I'm writing my review here.I used the earth pod capsules as instructed directly into the soil as suggested after the first few true leaves were present. They were simple to use and my three-year-old especially enjoyed using them and helping. You simply press the capsule into the earth at the base of the plants near the roots.They are non toxic to even pets so it's a plus. You won't burn your leaves up if you use several at a time.Prior to direct sowing I actually took gallons of distilled water and broke apart 4 capsules per gallon dumping its contents into the jug. I let them sit overnight. I strained it into a spray bottle (don't throw the bits and pieces out!! Give them to bigger plants at the base) but I used the spray bottle then as a tea and cared for my seed starts!!! You can see how beautiful they looked in the pictures. 100 capsules lasts for a long time depending on the number of plants you have. We planted a couple hundred starts and as a tea we did severs gallons and still had plenty as the plants have grown being transferred outside.You could completely skip this filtering step I'm sure by purchasing the tea drops instead for starts and the pods for growing and mature plants.They worked lovely on fresh herbs as well.I did receive the pods as a discount for exchange of my honest opinion and unbiased review for my experience. If this was beneficial please click helpful or feel free to ask me some questions and I'll attempt to help.

Excellent results, expensive if you have a lot if plants.
I really like how my plants have responded to this plant food. It perks them up and revives even languishing plants that I'd lost hope for. However, I want to use it for something like 15-25 in-ground plants and some 35 or so container plants. It fixes whatever ails them, but it is very expensive for my purposes. If you want it for a handful of tomato plants, or orchids, it's good, but if you want it for everything you grow, it's quite expensive. Also, it's much easier than composting yourself, and safer than using worm castings, which can burn your plants quite easily, but it is not as simple as some reviewers say ("just drop it in a watering can with water and begin watering your plants") because it takes planning ahead of about 2 days. First you fill containers, buckets, watering cans, then let stand in sun and give them a full 12 hours. Then drop in the tea bags, and steep another 24 hours, out of the sun ( sun can kill the organisms). So if I put out my water to get rid of chlorine at 2pm (b/c I might be busy, and maybe had other things to do !) then I would wait until 2pm the next day, to be sure and get close to 12 hrs of sunlight, (nighttime doesn't count) then steep overnight, and then I can use it -- it usually takes me 2 days. Bury the wet tea bags in the soil in and around your plants.

So easy to use and super effective! :)
I dropped 1 of these packets in my watering can and let it sit for a few hours and then watered about 10 of my houseplants (and still had some left over that I kept for later). The liquid barely had a smell, maybe a little earthy like a forest but very faint if I had to say anything but I kinda like it. My husband and I were shocked at the growth on some of our indoor house plants just about a week later. They were all very lush within days and some of them were even starting to send out little shoots!! (Just a note I had also pushed some Earthpods, the company’s other product that’s a capsule into the soil of these plants).Now I’m watering weekly with this liquid. Before teadrops I didn’t really have anything I liked to use – all the other products seemed toxic with those blue pellets and sticks and I didn't like having them around my house near my kids and dogs. Now I don’t have to measure anything and just drop a packet in some water or push a capsule into the pot. I don't have a green thumb and always joke about that with my husband how I kill everything, but teadrops has made it easy for me to take care of my plants and have them flourish!! Love this guys…keep up the good work.Btw, even the packaging is ecofriendly

Nothing better than organic!
I bought these because I recently started buying house plants (got tired of the fake) and I also try to be as eco friendly as possible with everything so I chose these because they promise the following:“At Earthworm Technologies, we are the only fertilizer company in the market that is 100% fully committed to sustainability & recycling (from our production process to our packaging)!We are also the only company whose entire packaging is made from recycled paperboard & printed with soy inks. So, feel free to fully recycle, repurpose or compost that tube when you're done!”I bought both the Tea Drops and Earth Pods and I can honestly say my plants love this stuff! It’s the middle of summer and all my plants are blooming beautifully-everyone compliments them! :) If you’re considering them, just buy them- they won’t hurt you, your plants or the environment. (;

It's too easy
I bought this based on product description and reviews. I was a little put off by having to wait for the "tea" to brew, but it was so worth it. Our plants looked greener and perkier that same evening. With the same concoction we fed a snake plant, 2 pothos, a monstera, an aloe vera, a fern and a another plant that we can't identify. They all loved it. We just found a safe and natural fertilizer for us and our plants. Thank you for an awesome product.

Effective, easy to use product!!!
I have used the Tea Drops organic liquid fertilizer for the past couple years with great results. For ease of use and impressive results it has no equal. I water all of my plants (primarily cactus and succulents) with the solution once a week all year round without the fear of over-fertilization or risk of burn (as with synthetic fertilizers). All of my plants are thriving.I also recommend the Earth Pods capsules, which I have used with equal success for my bonsai and other house plants.
