[compost_tea] Re: Compost and LCE field trial
Ray,
In my case, the compost application cost per acre was what started the conv=
ersation looking for an alternative.
I am curious as to what type of liquid application approach we can formulat=
e, using the compost cost per acre, as a budget/cost starting point.
This trial application will include onite produced soil conditioner and sti=
mulants liquids, like fermented humic substances and fermented fish, as wel=
l as, a range of different types of LCEs, all mixed together into an applic=
ation tank and applied via irrigation..
I cannot wait to see what the plants tell us.
