Re: Compost Tea
I'm also planning on doing compost tea next year. I have a 55 gallon drum, 4 air stone strong air pump, a pillow bag for straining and for ingredients, I can get 1 gallon molasses for $16. For the compost, I can get that for free in my county, or out of my leaf compost pile and I also plan on starting a worm bin next spring with 1lb of worms to add more variety to the compost I use in my aerated tea. If desired, I might add some corn meal, coffee grounds, or other side ingredients to make the tea more effective.
On top of bananas, I also have blueberries, bamboos, palms, and all sorts of vegetables that I want to make grow faster so hopefully 50 gallons of quality compost tea can make some noticeable difference.
