Re: [compost_tea] composting equipment, was This is a test



I have the compost tea manual on order.  I'm hoping there is something in there.

So my question still remains tucked in my head, pounding to get out…  this is a CT list .. but we don’t talk about how to make the C part …  I hate to ask, are we here to learn nothing more than how to market and/or buy the CT brewers out there then??

 

I love science and realize that we need to learn the hazards…  but like you said, what goes in does eventually come back out … so why again is it not important to talk about the ‘what goes in’ part of C in a CT list ??

Paulette,

 

Careful....As with any compost, what goes in does, indeed, impact what comes out.  That is why some vermicompost is good in teas and some isn't.  You do have to worry about what you feed your worms. And you have to consider that some vermicompost does not have the diversity other vermicomposts have...The SFI site contains some references to great vermicompost. Start there.
