Ross asked if it is necessary to pre-inoculate if
you have great numbers.
My guess is that the pre inoculation does nothing
to increase the amount of fungi in the 'compost' (humus/vermicompost) if you
don't have good numbers in the first instance. My theory is the pre
inoculation gets the fungi growing in the teas before the bacteria can take over
and dominate. Teas come in with much higher fungal numbers than without pre
inoculation even though AH and your vermicompost give good numbers without
it. They are just better, by a significant factor if you pre
inoculate.
Of course, more work is being doing!
Cheers,
Jeff
