How To make Plant Tea ?
Bored now, snow stopping play.
I thought that after the first lot had gone that would be it , but it’s started all over again.
Chop up a mix of soft hairey and leguminous [ Docks , Comfrey , Nettles & Clover ]
Put into a bucket / receptacle until 3/4’s full.
Cover leaves with a mixture of one part animal urine to two parts water [ or just water ].
Add a pinch of ash , and stir.
Cover and leave.
Stir regularly until the leaves have rotted down , which may take a few week. You’ll know because the pong will be strong. So best to store it away from public areas. Remove the leaves and add to the compost heap. I use comfrey which are great activators for breaking down compost.
Cover the liquid and leave in shade for 14 days.
Dilute the tea [ 1 part tea to 2 parts water ] and feed your garden.
Not best poured onto leaves but at the base of the plants.
