I just add more to existing leftovers (back slop). Ready overnight usually. So you don't have to prepare as much if you're worried about it becoming too strong.I was able to wait the three and a half days and it looks and smells good so far (relatively speaking of course)! I fed them about half, am I able to just add more feed and water and keep the cycle going indefinitely? Should I be draining the old water off when I replenish the jar or is it better to leave the water full of those good cultures in there? I worry about it getting too strong for my chicks and ending up deterring them before they learn to love it
I use 5 gallon buckets daily.
