new member from northern michigan

#1 Post by Pointer80 » Mon Aug 17, 2020 3:04 am

Hello all, I am a new member from Northern Michigan. I just purchased a used amscope 40x-2500x binocular compound microscope. I am a avid organic gardener and I make my own compost and earthworm castings and also do compost teas etc. I mainly want to view the soil biology and soil life. I have to be honest I don't know a lot about microscope but am willing to learn. Thanks all.

Hi There,
saw that we have the compost tea creation in common. Great. Have started checking out my soils and looking to compose adequate teas. Contructing a tea maker. How far have you come?

I just got a tea plant. I assume growing conditions are similar to camellia japonica. I have two coffee plants and those are good for finding nematodes in.
