Hi,
I recently started to research foliar sprays, compost teas etc; in particular I am studying fermentation.
My instinct would be to make a major compost tea with compost, obviously, fermented cornmeal, lactobacillus (say, a kefir starter), neem powder, grapefruit seed extract, a little bit of colloidal clay, ashes, turmeric, oregano leaves, and the list goes on, but in substance I mean stuff that's nutritious and stuff that will keep bugs and germs away. However, wouldn't the natural antibiotics (such as neem, turmeric, oregano and grapefruit) kill my good microbial cultures (such as lactobacillus, the microbes in the compost, and the cornmeal)?
Thanks.
