[QUOTE="Dry Rot, post: 6229056, member: 4505"] Surely organic matter only "works" if it contains micro fauna and flora? Make a bonfire and see how long it takes for plants to grow back on the site of the fire. Lift a dung heap and see what grows back, and how well, where the dung was stored. One is dead and the other is living. Sterilise muck from a muck heap and nothing will grow on it. What is that process customs use to kill off bugs and render imported seeds etc. harmless? Gamma radiation? Sterile organic matter is of no use to plants even if it contains 100% "organic matter". [/QUOTE]
