A compost tea set up that isnt too labor intensive or $?
I have aerobic compost out back. I have a composting worm bin in the basement. So I have access to the raw materials. And I WANT to make the leap to compost teas for my lawn and garden. But every time I read up on them it starts to sound like I need some giant claptrap set up that involves MacGuyver, an acquarium pump and some other doo-dads. Is there a simple solution to getting started that I could then upgrade if I discover that I like the process and the product?
Can I just start with a bucket, compost, water and some molassas, or do I need a motor and bubbles and all that jazz? Please: someone convince me to start this, and that it wont be a big headache timesuck! |
