Antibacterial ingredients in tea: Catechins, Tannins, Theaflavins, Theanine. Here is data on tea catechins and theaflavins vs bacillus cereus.
It's already been tested, tons of data on Google.

Here I am attempting to grow Pink oyster that is very infected. The spawn was kept in a fridge at 2°C for 2 months.
Pink oyster usually dies below 10°C.

Not sure if the Pink oyster is doing much, probably not. However my British black poplar has recovered. This spawn was infected with yeast. Currently it looks similar to cubensis growth, quite strong.

Spent tea bags enriched with soluble plant food and yeast nutrients.

Black poplar has won against yeast, even with yeast nutrients present. It looks like it has some serious growing efficiency, and speed.

The Black poplar sample is very strong, it seems focused on repair. Growth is becoming uniform all around and very populated.

Interestingly my Tarragon is showing the same signs Golden does on pine, it has trouble with it. However, after testing these effects can be overcome with nutritional improvement.
Tea should be considered complex to digest, less than inhibitory.
Add soluble nutrients and vitamins, and 5% starch.

I assembled some TGF-Tek and added extra nutrients, as my WL-Tek recipe. There will be an improved speed, growth rate and ability to digest.

Response with 24 hours, TGF-Tek to TGF-Tek, due to added nutrients. Now I actually wish I had enriched the first set of TGF-Tek.
I confirm use of both additives, Images soon.

Here is an image of the growth stages of Tarragon oyster. My current grow has colonized mostly on stage one.

I'm making an attempt to expand a sample of a spent substrate to WL-Tek, 80% water.

This is 20g dry pellets, 2g of enrichment and 88g of water.

Enrichment recipe:
I am using paper pellets as my main energy source.
2.5g > Miracle-Gro® Plant Food. 2.5g > Yeast Nutrients. 500g > Hot Water.
2 x Tea bags.
Steep the tea bags for 10 minutes in boiled hot water using a fork. Remove the tea bags and add the additives, now mix well.
I bottled mine (fridge), and currently used 88g.
