Ted, Micro and Macro are defined soil biology terms, which explains Dr. Ela=
ine's response.

Second, I don't think you can breed and grew nematodes in 24 hours in a tea=
. If they are in the compost to start, then you will have proportionate num=
bers.

Folks, you want to have nematodes in your compost/humus to begin with. You =
are not going to really increase their numbers in tea. Once again, it start=
s with the compost you put in.

Cheers,


Jeff
