Does a plant have a disease because of a lack of pesticides or herbicides? HEALTHY PLANTS grow in soils that are vibrant and full of microbial life.
COMPOST TEA
Compost Tea is a liquid solution or suspension made by steeping compost in water.
It is used as both a plant nutrient and attempts to prevent plant diseases.
Compost Tea is a highly concentrated microbial solution produced by extracting beneficial microbes from WORMCASTINGS and or COMPOST.
Microbial rich compost is the key ingredient to making a quality compost tea. Other essentials are WATER, AIR,
and FOOD.
There are two main methods of producing a compost tea.
The first dates back hundreds of years and is prepared by immersing sacks of compost into a barrel of water stirring occasionally over a period of 7 to 10 days.
The second method is to brew the compost in water with the aid of air bubbles and a food source over a
much shorter period of time usually 24 to 36 hours.
WORMSRUS have produced a simple and cost effective worm tea brewer using the air bubble method to
produce a nutrient rich compost tea.

SCIENCE Plants themselves don't use all of the energy they make through photosynthesis. For example, 60 percent of
a vegetable plant's energy goes to its root system, and half of that energy is exuded into the soil. Of those exudates, 90% are sugars; the rest are carbohydrates and proteins. When you think about these ingredients as food, they're the makings for cake. This is high-energy stuff. Why is nearly one-third of a vegetable plant's output going into the soil as energy-rich food? To feed the good bacteria and fungi. MICROBIAL FUNCTIONS BENEFITS OF WORMCASTINGS BREWED AS A COMPOST TEA
