It's Terracycle, they started out here being sold at ridiulous prices in supermarkets. Now they're practically giving them away so I stocked up on a few for additional foliar feed. I'm not sure but I believe this may strengthen the plants imune responses the way a compost tea applied this way would. In any case it cant hurt.
Of course if you have a big compost pile, it's going to be full of castings anyway.
