Compost tea experiement. Here's my simple compost tea brewer. I filled it with hose water yesterday. Let it sit overnight to allow the chlorine to dissapate. This AM I shoveled two five gallon buckets of 2-year-old compost into the barrel. Here it is 2 hours later foaming away. I give it a whirl with the shovel ever once in a while. Tomorrow AM it will smell good, and the compost will have settled to the bottom leaving the brown tea with it's explosion of microbial growth ready for folar feeding and watering. When the barrel gets low, I tip the sludge onto the garden.
