Hey Organic Gurus:
I very lightly top dress my garden with compost about once every two weeks during the grow season. I figure the plants get all the benes of the compost during watering, plus the compost improves the overall soil quality.
But I know lotsa folks use compost tea. I get that it’s readily available to plants, but it doesn’t seem like it’d provide the textural and overall fertility benefits of solid compost.
So, organic gurus, please give me the lowdown on the overall benefits of compost v. compost tea.
Thanks in advance!
