[compost_tea] Re: Making compost tea extract
Tad,
You bring up a very excellent point which I have some questions about. In =
nature..form follows function so.....
1. Do the microbes in an application liquid need to be actively growing for=
a soil application if the goal is just to add wee beasties to the soil ?
2. What type of benefits, thinking of the soil as the customer, can be ache=
ived by applying dormant microbes, via an extract, along with foods stimula=
nts to the soil during an application event ?
Thanks for insights.....
