[compost_tea] Hyphal diameter vs active fungal biomass



To end up with a compost tea that has excellent disease surpressive 
qualities, is it more important to have a high active fungal biomass 
and a 2.5um hyphal diameter or lower numbers but a hyphal diameter of 
3um?. The tea would be used for controlling mold and fungal diseases 
on potatoes.

What is a realistic goal of Active Fungal Biomass with a diamter of 
3um?

According to the SFI reports soil drenches require teas with a total 
Fungal to Bacteria Biomass of 5 - 10. I have not seen too many
reports with ratios >1. How beneficial is it to use such a tea (soil 
drench) prior to or during transplanting spruce and fur trees.
