Without something to carry it you would be asked to measure a millionth of a teaspoon and then somehow distribute that evenly through a gallon of water. Nobody can do that.

These rates are designed for soil systems. In hydro and inert media you will likely need to re-inoculate more frequently depending on your media and how much chemical input you are running.

A brewer multiplies whatever happens to grow fastest in your particular setup, so anything you put in at the beginning comes out at a very different balance than it went in.
