Composting Grubs
The Alaska Humisoil is hard to come by in the Philippines, though we do use a small amount. As an alternative I have been experimenting with specially treated vermicompost as the BioTea starter. Vermicompost is made using red worms to break down the organic matter and add all the microbial life.
However, we are now beginning to use an indigenous type of grub to quickly transform organic matter into the starter for the BioTea. They are almost 4" long and about 1" in diameter -- and very hungry! Testing the BioTea made with grup compost shows that we are getting very good microbial results.

BioTea and Lufer Plants
In the Philippines, lufas are a prized vegetable. Yes, the skeleton of the lufa plant is the one you use in the bath to scrub your back. This picture is of the big fruits that grew on a plant treated with BioTea. That plant set 116 lufas in all.
