Oh, there is one exception to the rule about Growing Solutions machines that
I put in the previous e-mail.
With the 25 gal GSI machine, IF you use the systems that Hendrikus Schraven
uses, then you can get decent tea. But it isn't all that obvious and
certainly the people at Growing Solutions do not tell you how to use their
machine to give you those results.
And it is Growing Solutions that is trying to patent compost tea. Their
patent application came out Nov 7, 2002. Please go read it. It would be ok
if they just tried to patent their particular design, I'd have no problem
with that. But they are trying to patent something I wrote magazine
articles about long before they ever put together their patent. See Fine
Gardening, Oct/Nov 2000
How do you get that information to the patent office? How do I make sure
the patent examiners see that the information for aerated tea machines
existed for a long time before GSI came on the scene? Their machine is
nothing new under the sun.
