Hi Dan -

What is the OM level in your soil? My thoughts here are - do you
have enough food in the soil to maintain the critters once you get
them in the soil? Maybe need to be adding some long-term food
resources....Elaine

My OM is ~1.5% - low so I am planning to add food resources as
Elaine suggested such as HA, fish hyd, Molasses, etc. I have added
a small quantities to sprayer just before spraying CT but realize I
need more food for organisms. I am concerned about adding the
amount I need with the CT for fear that it may go anaerobic. Is it
better to do a separate food spray or OK to add them to CT just
before spraying? With the CT is certainly the most economical way.

Dan
