Michael Phillips and Elaine Ingham on CompostingRenowned holistic orchardist and author Michael Phillips shared his deep
body of knowledge on how to perform successful biological orcharding
for apples and other fruiting trees. His books, "The Apple Grower" and
"The Holistic Orchard" go into complete detail on this intriguing topic
that examines expanding ways to emulate forest edge ecology. Michael's
methods help trees attain the peak acquired systemic immune response to
their changing environment through each season to maintain health and
fruit production. He has many videos on Utube on the two different types of compost. Here is one of his videos: Another expert on composting is Dr. Elaine Ingham who sponsors the Soil Food Web: She wrote the Compost Tea Brewing Manual in 2001 which is out of print but may be found on ebay at times. Here is a PDF of her manual: I have made tea just by adding leaf compost to a 55 gallon water barrel and let it set for a week and then water the plants with the solution. |
