Re: [compost_tea] Worms Again



Kirk,
The article was not stating that the earthworms were eating the plants, the 
concern was that they were decomposing the fallen leaves and forest floor 
duff at a more rapid rate than normal and thus possibly changing the forest 
ecosystem to favor species that hadn't historically been components of the 
native vegetation.
