There is an organic grower in Philomath Oregon and is very successful with =

Hello all,
I'm just wondering if anyone has experience with using Compost Tea in an or=
ganic blueberry system. I have a farmer that would like to run a trial to u=
se the Tea to deal with mummy berry. My suggestion was to get a living mulc=
h down (they have bark mulch right now), let the berries fall and spray wit=
h tea; the idea being to immunize the system against the mummy berry.

Any thoughts or previous experience?

Cheers,
Kathleen
