Re: [compost_tea] Facts and some Myths!



 
So, John is in a wet climate.

Jose?  Scott? 

Others growing large vegetables?  What's the common thread?

We are supposed to be in Av. 80" rainfall area but I haven't seen that kind a rain for a few years.
I have to attribute large plants and speedy multiplication (from one division to 8 or 10 in 12 months) to a good volcanic soil which is tested by Brookside Laboratory, nutritionally balanced prior to planting with organic fertilisers, innoculated with a proprietary microbe mix which has 4 fungi and 20 bacteria (from www.nutri-tech.com.au) , and then the plants & soil receive a monthly application of very diluted CT through the overhead sprinklers.
 
No losses to disease, Brix levels are high, and aphid numbers are minimal in 6 acre mono-culture.  Clients report that my plants "take off" when planted compared  to those from other daylily specialists.
