[QUOTE="Daniel Tyrkiel, post: 7863725, member: 158655"] I can only say watch this space. We're a UK company backed by Dr. Ingham and advised on a weekly basis - we chat every Friday. We're making compost by hand at the moment as part of our RandD (over 20 piles this year to date) and have achieved fungal biomass in our compost higher than most that we have seen. We keep a record of your best compost samples for fun, but we don't include our own numbers as it would be unfair ;) We also run weekly drop in sessions for early adopters like you where we can help answer your questions on composting. You can view previous sessions here: [URL]https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCogon8wegEazhcqcny25fbQ/videos[/URL] and if you want in, pm me please with your email. We've had a successful barley trial this year (not super duper fantastic, but gives us a step to go up from), and you can read the results here: [URL]https://soilecologylab.co.uk/try-it-out-on-your-land/[/URL] If you'd like to learn microscopy we can help with that too, or you can send us samples and we do that for you. It's especially useful when you find or make some compost and want to know if there's any biology in it. Sending a sample of your soil only makes sense if you follow it up with an application of microbes and want to check if they'd established. Other than that, you will have bacteria and nothing else. I'll happily take your money for a telepathic assessment of your soil :P or you can skip that and save yourself the cash. We're here to help and to learn. We're hoping that Sheffield Uni will be able to give us a hand with DNA analysis and controlled trials. It's going to be another two years I think minimum before we'll have a good set of answers. You [B]can [/B]work with us now though, because now finally we have material to work with, and previously a soil food web rich material was simply unobtanium in the UK. We're located on an arable farm in Hampshire and have access to all sorts of material for composting because the farm also runs a green waste site. A little bit about me - my name is Daniel and I'm a recovering townie, so I'm not here to lecture you - I'm in no position to do that. Please help me understand your problems, and perhaps together we'll be able to crack this one. Thank you! [ATTACH type="full"]1000615[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
