Re: [compost_tea] Alfalfa tea and Kelp tea//possible protozoa



Hey all:
 
i joined a day or so ago and have been perusing the early posts, especially to find a recipe for compost tea. so far i've missed it/them if they are there....
 
any body care to point me in the right direction?
 
my interest in compost tea is brand new.... just read an article about it last week and it has come up on a rose group i belong to. so far though... a simple, effective recipe has not surfaced.
 
I was intially just interested in arresting the blackspot on some roses, but see that the benefits are much farther reaching....
 
and handy little point in the direction of a fairly simple recipe, if there is such a thing, would be appreciated. :)
 
Thanks... Littlemoon
 
ps: i don't think i am at the brewer or vat stage yet... is there a way to make small batches without all the gear?

Exactly right, Jeff!  You can jump-start the nutrient cycling process by adding protozoa to soil, and Jason probably has quite a herd in his alfalfa pellet - molasses mix.  Depends on whether the pellets were heated, or just pressed together.
