You can also make a tea with that chaff and hay then feed with that once in a while.

A tea would be easier to make as the only stuff i can get is imported ...i scammed a couple cups of it in real feed form and have noticed the seedlings and early growth after tranplant so it must have the gds..but then again i got about 5 or 6 ammendmants in the soil

I'm not sure about Australia, but it's a big cattle and horse country in areas, so I'd just about bet a dollar your local horsefeed supply store carries 50 pound bags of alfalfa/lucerne meal like mine does here in KY or at the least alfalfa cubes, which only need to be ground into a powder/meal. Alfalfa contains a growth hormone as well, which encourages vegetative growth.
I'd love to see some earth worm castings tossed into your soil mix Ruby. Makes my leaves so dark green they seriously look almost black in color. I know you're working on it though. Even a nice worked in top-dressing of worm castings or compost helps. I should bite the bullet, eat the shipping and ship you 50 pounds of my awesome worm compost man.

No shit and in 90 days he'd have a nice pile of castings and double or even triple his worms. Mine have now snowballed in just less than a year from one bin to six and I just got in a shipment of #8 hardware cloth to make a ghetto tumbler/separator. Hand separating the worms and cocoons becomes an exponential bitch lmao. FAST. I bet I have at least a hundred pounds of compost that needs tumbling and worms that need to be separated and divided into 12 bins. Crazy.

It can become a chore and I have access to a neighbor who ships castings nationally, so @ a buck per pound, it's about as easy for me to buy, BUT I love knowing what's going in cause your final product will only be that good. I love amending my beds with all kinds of organic soil amendments and feed them a varied diet, whereas the fella I buy from local keeps his works in peat and cardboard based bedding and feeds mostly Purina worm chow. Not really my idea of the best feed for the result I'm looking for.
