Product Overview
Why you should not use paint strainer bags
Paint strainer bags which are often recommended for compost teas are a bad choice because the openings are too small. If you use a paint strainer bag you will be throwing away a lot of your carefully grown microbes. This is particularly true for fungi, which are important for strong root development. Paint strainers are typically 120 mesh or 125 Microns. Your filters should be at least 400 microns to accommodate the larger beneficial microbes.
