Aerated manure tea
Maupin here.
I have 2 acres sublet on a farm in Western Thailand, where any time is a good time to plant tomatoes. All of the vegetable matter is fed to 60 pigs and 40 goats, so I have tons and tons of rotted pig and goat manure. I have never made teas from manure. A few questions: 1. Would aeration and the addition of sugars benefit manure tea in the same manner it benefited my veg compost pile tea? Why or why not? 2. Which of the manures (there's plenty of both, friends) would be the better input, and why? I have over 400 tomato seeds started at this point. |
