Comments on: Scotts Miracle-Grow Sues Terracycle? http://www.redwormcomposting.com/news/scotts-miracle-grow-sues-terracycle/ Red Wiggler Worms, European Nightcrawlers and loads of helpful Worm Composting Information Thu, 28 Aug 2008 23:24:56 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.5.1 By: Bentley http://www.redwormcomposting.com/news/scotts-miracle-grow-sues-terracycle/#comment-7206 Bentley Tue, 20 May 2008 00:22:50 +0000 http://www.redwormcomposting.com/news/scotts-miracle-grow-sues-terracycle/#comment-7206 Hey Paul, The suit was actually settled out of court. Terracycle agreed to enough of the Scotts' terms to make them happy. Not sure about the E. coli claim - do you have evidence to back this up? That said, I myself have always wondered how they prevent their teas from going anaerobic during storage. I have tested Terracycle out for fun and was actually quite surprised how well it did in fact work. Is it worth the money? I guess that's up the the customer to decide. I'd rather make my own vermicompost and brew up a fresh batch of my own tea. Nevertheless, I'm still impressed with what Terracycle has accomplished, and the awareness they've helped to raise.

Terracycle is producing a crap product that does NOT work. It's WAY over priced. It contains e coli. The "good" bacteria that is in the tea are dead by the time they are purchased by the consumer. The good bacteria need oxygen to live. They cannot get oxygen in a plastic bottle sitting on a store shelf. TerraCycle should not be able to sell there product. The avg. person is being taken advantage of when they purchase this product. TerraCycle Plant Food... NPK (.03-.002-.02) what a JOKE! I hope Scotts wins the lawsuit personally!
