"Compost tea uses a good deal of heat (in addition to the heat generated in
the making of good garden-type compost) in the process of making it. It
should be free of pathogens as a result."

Jim, so how is it that heat kills the varmints but keeps the critters? That
is, if both good and bad algae/fungi are exposed to heat, why is it that
only the pathogenic forms are killed by this heat?

Thanks,
Jim
