Compost tea is a liquid extract made from composted organic matter that can be used as an organic, liquid fertilizer. Many compost teas also can have anti fungal, anti bacterial, anti-insect activity and may contain naturally occurring  plant growth regulators, vitamins and sugars to stimulate plant development.

How Is Compost Tea Made and Used?

Compost tea is a living extract. It is brewed, similar to beer, but must be used fresh, just after the brewing to insure the optimum response in plants. Generally, a 25 gal batch is brewed over night at 80 F with  vigorous aeration. The brew contains several pounds of high quality compost, with a low salt index and a balanced mixture of beneficial micro organisms plus humic acids and a complex carbon and protein source to stimulate the growth of the micro organisms in the brew. The brew should be used within 24 hrs after it’s been made and should be kept at the 80F temperature until it is used.
