Re: [compost_tea] Re: additions to compost, fungal compost



The question was whether good fungal-strand containing material could be added to hot compost, and other foods added to help the fungi.

Yes.  Add the fungal-strand containing material at the beginning of the composting pile.  Add fungal foods like wood chips (not smaller than 1/8 inch, not alot bigger than 1/2 inch, except for maybe 5% greater than 1 inch - don't get crazy about precision here!), shredded paper, shredded cardboard, dried leaves.  Anything wide C:N ratio. 

OK?
