Organic growers now
have to prove everything is organic in what they use on their crops. I got
a compost tea brewer and nothing about what the food is or no ingredients.
Some folks that are selling these brewers and formals don't want to tell you
what they are using. they say its organic. if it is organic
like they say it should have a organic certification number. Us growers
have a inspector that comes by every year and they ask questions like.
what you feeding that compost tea. the farmer needs the organic
proof. darn . they say its organic but no proof. I sent them
good money and they said its organic but organic growers need to know
what's in it what is the food what's in the compost how was it made. they
are as bad as the chemical companies that will not tell you what are in inert
ingredients. I would hope you people selling this compost tea brewer stuff
calling it organic will send the paper work with it. I hope this is
organic now . I don't want to loose years of being organic just because I
want to use compost tea. Its not enough to just say oh all the stuff is
organic you need to help the grower out. if its organic you should have
organic registration numbers or be listed in the omri brand name products
list. If you say the stuff is organic send the paper work along with the
brewer. this is not right. now am getting talk about the company
does not want to tell you the brand names but don't worry its on the OMRI
list. well what good do it do to tell me it on the list but
don't give me the name that's on the list so I can look it up. boy that
is not right it puts the farmer between a rock and a hard place. we got
uSDA saying you got to know and we got folks saying they we will not tell
you just take their word for it. . no fair. everyone talks big. oh
its organic . well if you use that name organic it better be . what's your
organic registration number how did u make the compost what u feeding it I got
bags of unmarked stuff. I got a brewer and the direction said mix this bag
with this bag and this bag and don't worry it all organic. the USDA
inspector will not go for that. he wants to know what is in those
bags . and I want to know what's in the bag. You try to do the
right thing . I have not add anything for years on my land now when
I do because of all the talk here about all the benefits of compost tea I find I
have problems getting information. I got USDA organic Gestapo giving me
the 3 rd degree every year and I need proof. Just saying the guy told me
don't worry its organic don't get it anymore. Darn after you buy it you
find out there is not organic proof only the mans word. Sure I trust him
but The USDA will not take our word anymore so help us out and send
the proof with the products . I need documentation. that's is
the most important thing for a organic grower is the paper. the USDA want
to see the paper work. they will not take our word for anything
if they did we would not need a organic Gestapo checking on us every year
. We would not have to take hours and hours to fill out paper work we would
not have to have an inspector a certifier the USDA and the State of cal. all
putting us through all this . So I want my paper work. you said its
organic now prove it.you said it OMRI listed so I need proof. its
easy we have to do it every year for the rest of our organic growing life.
what's get me is he said its on the OMRI list before I sent my money and now he
says I can't tell you the name. NO fair. I have asked nice for over
two weeks what do you all think? last thing I heard was I
have a call into my supplier. I dn't know if they will share brand names
with us due to pripropritey (sp) info.m now is a bad time to
tell me that. no fair.I thought the compost tea folks would be
righteous and not leave us in a bind.
