Chris, you asked if you should be putting down food
for the soil foodweb members as well as tea.
There has to be adequate nutrients available for
the microbes to thrive. That means good organic matter. You don't need to
put down what most people call "organic fertilizer" but should be called
"microbe food" every time you tea, but depending on what you are growing, it
won't hurt to apply a microbe food at various times.
Microbe foods can be fungi foods, bacterial foods
or both. Go to www.soilfoodweb.com and
you will see a listing of products.
Same thing with compost. It can be made with brown,
hard to digest, fungal food materials in higher proportions to green, easy
to digest, sugar filled materials that are bacterial foods.
Cheers,
jeff
