Re: NYT - compost tea goes high tech!

I have had excellent results with the compost made with the soil soup
machine (http://www.soilsoup.com); others recommend other machines, such as
Growing Solutions.  Ann Lovejoy (NW garden writer) has written at length
about how just brewing manure tea in a garbage can introduce harmful
pathogens to one's garden, but the aerobically brewed tea is much much
better.  Some nurseries in the Seattle area now sell it by the gallon.
