Re: [compost_tea] Equipment
There has been a great discussion of O2 probes on this list earlier this
year. Go back and check out the archives.
We're trying to put together a microscope that is hand-held and will work in
the field. The problem right now is finding a high-intensity hand-held UV
source. We need broad spectrum UV light. Anyone know of such a lamp? Run
on battery?
Once we have that, the rest of the system is ready to go! Then you can
assess your own bacterial and fungal coverage on leaf surfaces!!!!! No more
sending leaf samples to the lab. Till then, however, you will need to send
your samples to SFI.
But we will soon have labs in Canada, in Mexico, in California, possibly in
Washington State, and possibly Texas. So there will be a lab near you soon!
