I hope this isnt stupid.


I notice some companies state their spore counts per gram and others by CC, isnt it going to be hard to compare the two , wouldnt you have to know how many grams a will fit into a CC

I just received this from RTI
300 propagules per gram, roughly 400 propagules per CC.

Havent given it much thought yet , My well pump burned out and its a dash to get it replaced

GreenGro contacted me and said their granular form is 80 spores to one gram or 71 to 101 per CC

I know there been some lengthy chats along the lines of this,but it seemed to be about spores and propagul counts this would be weight to volume.

Linus, when have I not? Since you don't seem to like my posts, how about you answer the question then?

I look forward to your posts Tad and would love to continue to hear your opinions on Mykos and tea particularly since there seem to be a bunch of folks "selling stuff" now.

If you compare one spore to another of the same type would they be nearly equal in value ?

But going propagules the count could be high or low by how much they are cut or grinded.I hope I am at least partially right about this.

I was just saying to be nice. I have seen this topic blow up, into a hate filled post filled with attacks

Here you go Linus from 3 years back, when was Tad rude? Lots of great stuff in the post if you look past the bickering.

Luke I had read that link a year or two ago and went over it quickly before posting this topic, I must have skimmed over the weight to cc statements made, one saying that 400 to 800 cc per pound is quite a variance.

Thats all I needed to answer my question....sort of

Have to say Tads post have inspired me to save/ buy a microscope so I can perfect my compost tea time. Just wanted to add this because it is now second on the list.
