Compost Tea - The "It" Factor

If you are an organic gardener this is something that could benefit you greatly.  Compost Tea is a tea made from completely decomposed compost that is added to water and stirred vigorously over a 3 day - 1 week period.  It is extremely nutricious and builds soil structure as well as fertilizing in a safe organic way.  Also, if the tea is added to live plants it will help create a bio-film on the leaves making the plant much more pest and fungi resistant.  This is such a natural & safe fertilizer, you could drink it! 

This is a very simple way to create a concentrated, liquid fertilizer that will benefit your garden in many ways.  Let me know how this works for you.
