Pardon my mistype . I meant "aerating it to help grow even more Aerobic
microbes." (not Anaerobic). Pardon that..

Mike recalls "Rodale's Organic Gardening Magazine...always speaking of the
'soak in the bucket' (anaerobic) method." Are you surprised? He thinks
this is bad. I don't.


Hey Kirk, chill.

I don't recall saying anything about it being "bad". It is anaerobic, is it
not? Never said that was bad tho - just that it is what is often preached
in the magazine. I believe I said something to the matter of suggesting
someone write an article regarding AACT; The actively aerated alternative.
Adding food to the compost tea, aerating it to help grow even more anaerobic
microbes - In my opinion it does seem to be the better alternative -you get
more good stuff, from the same bucket.

I read the magazine, and still practice the bucket method, but was excited
to hear about growing even more 'good stuff' in the tea using the AACT
methods. I truly think that the readers of OG would be very interested in
learning about AACT as an alternative to the 'bucket tea' that I had
mentioned.

Did you happen to read further into my message? I question everything. I
try to make a stand for the common guy out here, not wanting to spend a
bunch of cash on making teas, wanting it to researched to make it more
simple and then, in turn, to get it in use more often. That goes for
Compost-anything.
