Question 1
How do gardeners make basic compost tea?
Water draws soluble nutrients and microorganisms out of compost for liquid application.
Question 2
How does aeration change a compost-tea brew?
Aeration increases dissolved oxygen and favors bacteria and fungi that tolerate oxygen in the brew.
Question 3
Why do gardeners strain compost tea before spraying plants?
Fine compost particles can block sprayer nozzles, so straining removes solids before foliar application.
