I saw three back-to-back articles in the latest Urban Garden mag that I would highly recommend for those getting their feet with with organic soil and compost tea. Two are available at the mag's site:
Pimp Your Soil: A Quick Guide to Soil Amendments
By Heather Colburn
http://www.urbangardenmagazine.com/index.php?id=217
Staying Alive: Maximizing the Effectiveness of Your Beneficial Biology
By Richard Gellert
http://www.urbangardenmagazine.com/index.php?id=216
The third was stellar, it's called The Living Soil , and it described in detail the role of nematodes, arthropods, protozoa and bacteria in soil, and how to engineer compost teas. The text is at http://www.simplici-tea.com/thelivingsoil.htm - and there was a cool illustration of "The Soil Food Web" that is available at http://www.soilfoodweb.com/03_about_us/approach.html
