[compost_tea] Re: vinegar addition



More often than not in our situations, the pH is higher than "ideal". 
Our experience has indicated that chasing pH changes is like a dog 
chasing his tail, scurrying about with little success. Whats the 
point in adjusting the pH to ideal and then using irrigation water 
exponentially higher or lower?

event that a pH of 7 is ideal.  Instead of vinegar, which, 
incidentally will kill microbes, use tang.....I think it was 3 
teaspoon for each 1 point....but I don't have my notes here so 
hopefully someone will confirm.
