There are none listed there. I’ve been pointed there before.
http://www.soilfoodweb.com/phpweb/userpage.php?op=view&uid=397
<http://www.soilfoodweb.com/phpweb/userpage.php?op=view&uid=397>

There are placeholders for the products, but none have been listed. Unless
I’m missing something here.

Does anyone have any references to finding these elsewhere?

Mike

Chris, you asked if you should be putting down food for the soil foodweb
members as well as tea.

There has to be adequate nutrients available for the microbes to thrive.
That means good organic matter. You don't need to put down what most people
call "organic fertilizer" but should be called "microbe food" every time you
tea, but depending on what you are growing, it won't hurt to apply a microbe
food at various times.

Microbe foods can be fungi foods, bacterial foods or both. Go to
www.soilfoodweb.com <http://www.soilfoodweb.com> and you will see a listing
of products.

Same thing with compost. It can be made with brown, hard to digest, fungal
food materials in higher proportions to green, easy to digest, sugar filled
materials that are bacterial foods.

Cheers,

jeff
