  • The building in the background really caught my eye. It is so perfectly weathered.People just don't appreciate things that have rustic written all over them. I must be getting old :P

  • Hi, how to Brew Compost Coffee?

  • I don't get the connection between spraying this liquid on the leaves and flowers of a plant and the nutrients in the soil

  • @sher53sher Its all connected. Plants can take nutrients in through their leaves. It also helps create an environment for good bacteria to help the plant thrive.

  • It would be great if folks could keep comments positive. Thanks all! Happy 4th.

  • New England eh? Maybe I'll check these guys out next time I'm home!

  • While it is true, he is promoting a device that sells for $140, it just depends on what you have more of...time or money. For someone who doesn't want to drive all around town looking for an aerator and then figuring out how to properly install it, this may be perfect for them. So, do your research before posting your comments, and avoid calling names, such as "stupid", that only shows your ignorance for not researching this matter first. Sure a glass fish tank sounds great, until it cracks!

  • Is it really organic if you brew the tea for 24 hours in a plastic bucket ? Maybe replace the bucket with a 5 gallon Glass fish tank instead.

  • compost tea brewers are not a gimmick. If you do not have sufficient oxygen flow in the liquid than your brew goes anaerobic and reproduces detrimental microbes. You MUST keep the brew aerobic (oxygen) to ensure only beneficial microbes in your brew. The application gives a short term benefits of compost without the work and or cost of compost.

    check out Elaine Ingham, The book teaming with microbes or the Soil Food Web Institute.

    Only buy a brewer tested by the Soil Food Web Institute.

  • Hey growingwidsom,

    I just started my garden 2 weeks ago for the first time, and so far I think they're doin' great! Doe you have any tips for a beginner? I also need some help identifying my plants, I forgot to write the name down of the seeds :p. Anyway go to my channel if you think you can help me out or just want to see my garden. One question before I leave, how much water should you give plants that are just 2 weeks old?

    Thanks, Marc.

  • So this is an add for a product disguised as an intructional video. Kinda tacky. All you gotta do is toss compost in water, stir it and use the liquid. It costs nothing in materials. :)

    ps: Homemade compost already has billion of the beneficial bacteria, enzymes and fungi that you need to feed plants and soil. It's all in there.

  • Is there any other way than organic ?>???

    In LAncashire UK my grandad always had what he called a Muck tub ( no powders , brweres or anything like that ) ... He simply got a bin, filled it halffull with rotted horse manure then he'd top up with water to just above the horse muck, letting the rain fill to top, when full give it a stir scoop up some liquid, apply as you wish (filter before spraying obviously) and hey ho 'Muck tub tea' The Lancashire way

  • don't bother with this video it's more or less trying to  sell that stupid brewer that must cost 200 or more dollars. you can make a simple one yourself for like 30!!!

  • It's still educational. Make your own at home, I agree 100%.

  • I don't believe ya have to go throw all the process, just let it sit in the sun, in a bucket a few days or even weeks, stir it once in a while.

    A fertilizer dance can be used goin' around it, optional.. : - )

  • @lordblazerpsx THANKS! I hate commercials. :(

  • @lordblazerpsx Honestly I like the idea of a turn key system that I know will work and work well. Many people don't have the time or aptitude to figure out how to put together a homemade tea brewing system.

  • How much compost tea should be added in an acre of corn field?

  • Good stuff! Thank you for posting a video on the soil web. Healthy soil makes for healthy plants. I use dried molasses ( 1:52 ), it is simple and cheap.

    I had not thought about UV when applying.
