Hi! I've tried about everything and haven't heard of this yet. I'd love to give it a try. Do you have links to the hardware and other products you use? I'll search around and being lazy, but if you have links, that'll be a big help.

Will using chlorinated tap water have a negative effect on the bacteria?

❤ ur mad science. Kelp4less kelp is the best! I think u need to likewise up ur game with the castings. Bagged dried castings are useless. All the benefits are lost after the stuff is dry too long. Find a castings source on par with Kelp4less.
Forget the Fe. If u drill down on the actual peer reviewed data Fe is only necessary in a very narrow soil chemical band width and continuous use of it causes major issues.
Try fulvic acid at 2.5 times the amount of kelp. I love Kelp4less fulvic. Research indicates fulvic is more powerful than humic.
I also add aminos acids in the summer.
Other stuff I rotate in are a pinch of Sea90 salt for the kitchen sink of micronutrients and good quality neem cake
I’ve researched the crap out of these ingredients from either university studies or organic farming practices and I concur with their results.
Yes I still get summer burn because I grow TTTF but my lawn is head and shoulders above the block who use synthetic lawn services.
I have tons of earthworms and my soil tilthe has improved exponentially. I can easily sink a soil probe now where 10 years ago I had concrete.
I laughed last year because we had a mild mid Atlantic winter and I actually cut TTTF in December and mid January when it finally went dormant
