Why Compost Tea?
Why Compost Tea?

Compost tea enhances the beneficial organisms in our soils.

It is the actions and life-cycles of these beneficial organisms that interact with the root systems and foliage structures of all plants (vegetables, trees, shrubs, grasses, etc.) to increase their growth, vigor, and health.

Good compost tea contains a huge diversity of actively growing and reproducing beneficial microorganisms. These vital creatures aid the natural biological processes in the soil to make nutrients available to the root systems of your plants. Whether used to inoculate the soil or as a foliage drench, Flowerfield Compost Tea will help:

  • protect plants from disease causing organisms
  • improve nutrient retention in the soil
  • decompose harmful chemicals, pesticides or other toxins
  • transform compacted soil into healthy soil
  • reduce water usage
  • decrease run-off and leaching
  • leave lawns and sports fields a safe place to play
  • increase the nutritive value and flavor of the fruits and vegetables grown

We know that adding good compost to a lawn, garden, or potted plants is valuable. The decomposed organic matter present in compost improves soil quality and provides nutrients for the plants. But it is the living components of compost, the billions of bacteria, fungi, protozoa, nematodes and other micro and macro soil organisms, that perform the work of building soil and unlocking the nutrients and minerals that plants need to thrive.

Safety

Unlike chemical nutrient supplements and fertilizers, compost tea is completely safe for people, animals and plants. The brewing process is monitored carefully to insure that beneficial organisms are present in sufficient numbers to out-compete any pathogens or toxins. Compost tea is brown and smells pleasant. You need never worry about letting your children or pets come in contact with lawns or plants treated with Flowerfield Compost Tea.
