Sounds like good shit to use, ironically it's very similar to what I do in my compost.My compost and ewc is bagged this time around.
The compost is called Purple Cow Compost, it has no manure from what I remember.
Product Description:
Purple Cow Organics Activated Compost With MicroLife is a scientifically formulated, tested, and certified premium compost - vermicompost based product. It delivers a full-range of benefits, along with metabolic building blocks to enrich and enliven your soil's foodweb. Purple Cow is formulated beginning with composted leaves and alfalfa fiber. Alfalfa contains a naturally-occurring plant hormone; triacontanol, that research has proven to promote root growth. During the composting process of Purple Cow, beneficial "soil foods", including greensand, rock dusts, and kelp meal stimulate a diversity of microorganisms along with adding macro and micronutrients. Kelp contains growth hormones, auxins, cytokines, and gibberellins, which increase root development substantially. Finally, MicroLife, Purple Cow's own blend of vermicompost worm castings, is added for final activation of the product. Purple Cow supplies beneficial microorganisms and organic humus to the growing media of soil, harmoniously enhancing your soil's biology and making nutrients more available for plant uptake. Purple Cow improves soil structure and porosity, creating a better plant root environment, resulting in a healthier plant overall.
Can't beat nature it would seem.
the two most common ingredients in my compost are leaves and alfalfa, with comfrey and grass clipping as the third and fourth.
I use a LOT of alfalfa. It's my "green" for the thermophilic portion of the compost
Sounds like good stuff man
If it's that fortified, you may wanna go a lil lighter on the amendments, closer to the 1/2 cup recipe
