Re: [compost_tea] Simple CT maker



Jason asked about the five gallon bubbler bucket that was featured in an old magazine article when CT was just starting....I think the machine is no longer state of the art homemade.....
 
you are right, constructive.....I think the machine has too little oxygen. Use a much bigger pump. And, the air stones  make too small bubbles. Switch to 1/4 inch soaker hose which you should be able to get wherever they sell drip irrigation. A two foot span coiled and duct taped to the bottom of the bucket puts out bigger and more bubbles.
 
Cheers,
