The reason you want to activate the compost/humus
is to first see if there are adequate fungi in the soil and second to get them
growing. If you can't get the fungi to grow with oatmeal, you probably are not
going to get great fungal numbers. The fungi don't multiply in the tea, they
simply grow. Activating your compost/humus will start that process so they can
continue to grow in the tea. The results appear to be more total fungi and
more active fungi according to my tests ( and I hope those of others) so far.
The method described this morning is great: use a
flat container like a seed tray. I suggest you keep it in the dark and keep
it warm and keep it covered.
Cheers,
Jeff
