What happens if you use Dog
Food instead ? I
mean a good Dog Food made without preservatives. Lets say an Organic Dog Food brand. I don´t see
too much of a difference between a dog food and the list you gave below. JD asked about feather meal.
I assume you
are going to try and grow fungi
in your compost, something I urge you all to try so
you don't bang your head
against the wall trying to grow fungi in a tea using compost that
isn't fungally dominated. The point
is to grow the fungi,
the right ones and as far as I can tell there
is no "perfect" or "better way."
I have not noticed much of a difference between the "blooms" I get using "the meals" and malt individually
or in combinations. Some grow faster, but
once they establish, there is little difference. So if you can't
find feather meal, don't despair
and surely don't spend lots
of money trying to get
some. Incidentally, there are several organic fertilizers out there that contain
feather, bone, blood and alfalfa
meal. Since I believe in promoting our own, meaning
folks on this list, check
out Hendrikus Schraven's site" http://gardenshoponline.com/blendfert/hsocomplete.html,
this stuff looks like a veritable
three course meal with all
the trimmings for the fungi
in compost. If it won't grow fungi, nothing
wil and you
need a different compost. Hope this is useful. Cheers, Jeff Ask us about bulk quantity
rates, 1 cubic yard or more.
