Re: [compost_tea] T-22
Yes, T-22 can be added to tea at the beginning of the brew cycle. the spores germinate and start to grow, and thus are active and begin to perform their function immedaitely on addition to the soil. The fungus does not go through the whole life cycle, in the tea brewer, but the fungi added to the soil will colonize and reproduce in the soil.
Placement around the seed can help protect the seedling from disease fungi, but the roots rapidly grow away from that area. Trichoderma does not follow along the root the way a mycorrhizal fungus does. Thus, with Trichoderma, you need to get the fungus growing through the soil, so a soil drench works better, or addition to the soil of a compost to which you have added the T-22 works well.
OK?
