""Soil Soup""
 
   I recently saw some advice about blight on tomatoes, and you said after using "Soil Soup" that they improved greatly. I looked up soil soup on the internet, and I saw everything from leftover tea put in a compost pile to a sophisticated device where you use earthworms et. How do you make Soil Soup or where do you buy it? Thanks again.

   Hi Janet,
Our set up is brand named “Soil Soup” and if you do a search for “Soil Soup” you should find a place to purchase it. On Google it is first in the line-up.

It isn’t cheap but so worth it. You take compost, molasses, worm castings and water and brew the slurry with a pump. Kind of like a fish tank pump that introduces air into the mix. This makes the beneficial organisms multiply and after 24 hours you have this amazing mixture you spray on the plants and around the ground.

For years gardeners have brewed compost tea using just compost in water and that helps too. But this is even better.

Happy Gardening,
Diane
