Re: [compost_tea] One lurker's motives...



Compassion for us, Irene - Tilliumwoods!  Your place sounds wonderful.  We also know what it is like to fence deer out of a garden.  To hold 80 degrees -  an old electric blanket that still works?  A heating pad?  A warming plate?  A small lightbulb with space around it,  under a box with a blanket over.  Make certain that the heat input is low and that you are not setting up a fire hazard.  It takes very little heat to hold 80 degrees under a blanket. 

Looking for effective, easy brewers to buy, set up and operate?  We make em. We will give compassionate help to learn all about this magic called CT    Bob

I certainly can't speak for everyone who doesn't post
often/regularly/at all, but I joined this list to learn all I can
about CT: what it is, how to make it, what to put in it, how to use
it, and ultimately where to buy the right sized brewer/aerator.

I have two +/- 1600 sq. ft. deer-fenced garden areas with a
homesteaders' mix of vegetables and berries, plus a few apple trees
and miscellaneous ornamentals around the house.

I am still learning the lingo, so I hesitate to speak up until I can
ask a good enough question to elicit the information I need.

Right now I'm wondering how to keep a cup of compost + grain flour at
80 F for 48 hours in order to see if I can grow fungi. I could put it
in the oven, but then what might I be encouraging to take up
residence in my kitchen??

Thank you to everyone who contributes to the list, helping to educate
this newbie.
