Worm Compost Suppresses Plant Diseases

The microbes present in compost are the key to suppression. These microbes colonize the seed surface within eight hours of being planted in vermicompost. The microbes chemically modify the seed as it germinates so that signaling between the seed and the motile zoospores of P. aphanidermatum is interrupted, preventing the pathogen from accessing the plant. --- Allison Jack, researcher

Maybe it would be better to keep my worm compost and use it in the garden, no?
