Re: [compost_tea] Puzzled!!! Wow Numbers



Oops - those results were from Ross Orner's vermi-compost  -- not from his CT (I thought everyone read all the postings to this group and would have remembered those great results :-) )
 
Jeff replied:- " It seems logical that the answer would depend on a few things: Temperature, the amount of o2 in the bottle, the amount of nutrients left and the amount of o2 your machine put into the tea."
 
OK - so you can't get numbers like that in CT? But what if you could make a tea with great numbers and had 7ppm of  dissolved oxygen at the finish. Then you half fill a 2 litre container and store it for two days @ 75 F, how long before it goes off if there are no nutrients left? 
My last two batches didn't go off after two days in a bottle and only slightly off after 3 days, so logically (??) I reckon my CT wasn't a very good brew.  Don't ask me to test my teas again and again . . . during the past 12 months I've spent more on testing CT's than on fertilisers.
 
Jeff asked:- "O.K. Scott... now what were the tea numbers you made out of that fantastic compost?"
Could Ross answer that question if he has made CT using this form of compost?
