[compost_tea] Re: compost



Hi Jeff, 
I have thought all along that discussing compost making on this list 
would be a great idea since we are looking for very specific 
qualities.I have gotten pretty sidetracted in making compost, rather 
than tea, since my goal is commercial landscape care. I want to be 
able to topdress with compost in addition to applying tea. I have not 
been able to find good compost in southern Florida and cannot imagine 
shipping the large quantities needed for landscape use. I also am not 
finding very good sources of information or discussions on making 
compost in relationship to the microbial diversity that is discussed 
on this list. I hope we keep talking about this. Could you refer me 
to a couple good websites on making compost.

the definition of the term says it all. For CT we don't want to 
use "almost compost" or "has been" compost. Just compost. If people 
want to know how to make compost, there are a zillion websites with 
great instructions.
