RES: RES: [compost_tea] Giant vegetables



Title: Mensagem

Hi Tom,

 

I have sent a few picture files so you can see for yourself.

I would like to have your oppinion.

The list can accept file images, I’d be happy to post them. I am not an academic, but see lots of hype already pervasive in CT and it’s marketing. I’m hoping this forum will dispel myths and at the same time encourage research. I still remain unconvinced CT produces giant vegetables and simply seek verification. I would have been left in the dust had I not taken risks in using CT to counter serious disease problems with tea….that doesn’t mean I’m ready to stop questioning.

I have sent a few images to Dr Elaine´s e mail addres

because I am not sure if the list can accept file images.

She can tell you whether or not they are really giant.

My basic recipe includes Molasses, Humisolve-USA,

Brewer´s Yeast, Coral Calcium, Basalt Dust, Ground algae

( we don´t have algae extracts in Brazil), Sea minerals and

some Blood meal. I use Vermicompost mainly to make compost

tea. My compost tea was basically bacterial in the few times I

had it analised.

I tried to follow Compost Tea Manual guidelines as much as I could.

To my knowledge it did work.

I really don´t care if some academic says that it is hype and they are still

waiting for the data behind its utilization. I have no time to wait for that.

Besides I am too bussy growing all my crops and breaking several records.

Hi -

John Evans' work at Alaska Giant documents that it is not merely the long days that produce the giant vegetables in his garden.  His neighbors, in the same soil, with the same day lengths, keep trying to grow the same giant vegetables that he grows, and they are not successful. 

What he does differently from his neighbors is to use Alaska Humus, and compost tea made from Alaska Humus. 

Is it the Alaska Humus, or the compost tea with all the beneficial organisms in it that makes the difference?

>From Jose's experience with compost tea, it seems to be the compost tea......

So Joe, what machine and what recipes do you use?  Willing to share that information? 

Other people growing giant vegetables, what do you use?  Which machines, which recipes? 

Only by having repeatable data do we advance.....
