The idea behind the addition of things to compost was to see if you can gr=
ow fungi and thus know you can do so in tea. So, yes, try it on your own co=
mpost (s)/vermicompost and forest duff.

My belief and experience, apparently disputed by Jose, is that you should b=
e able to get things going with a simple grain like you are trying. Baby oa=
tmeal really works and what you are making isn't all that different though =
the baby oatmeal may have some beneficial additives.

Let us know what happens!

Cheers,
