Compost tea is applied to cores.

  • a proprietary blend of diverse microbes. (The microbes found in this soil amendment encourage plant growth, resulting in improvement of the life in the soil and on plant surfaces.
  • The tested bacteria, fungi, protozoa, nematodes, and mycorrhizal fungi found in Compost Tea were picked for their ability to break down organic debris (grass clippings, leaves, thatch, and twigs); cycle nutrients, including Nitrogen; reduce water needs; make soil more competitive; and retain nutrients. Such soil amendments containing representatives of all groups in the foodweb are required in an effective treatment program.
  • Compost Tea was then sprayed on foliage. It protects the tree’s surface with beneficial organisms and occupied infection sites, preventing disease-causing organisms from further affecting the site. Results should be:
Significant growth,
Increased nutrient retention
Restoration of proper biology functions
Reduction in chemical-based pesticide, herbicide, fertilizer use
Increased water-retention
Strong soil structure
