You are making compost tea???

To make compost tea, you've put leaves and grass in the onion bag?

Do I have that right Tam??

Nope...
That's what I was wonderin'..

Just take your finished compost, put it in
something like cheese clothe and then tie it
up at the top, then steap in your pail of water...

Compost Tea is
*finished compost ~ water*

And a foot note.. if you were to ever get a homemade barrel tumbler like, you can get tea when it rains..
Remind me and I will find some info on it for you..*the thing to make, it's a big plastic drum and two posts really*

And I bet you if you your landlord, he'd
find you one maybe...
*special cause your makin' his housing area look nice*

Maybe, if you have the space for it..

*My neighbor has one, and I keep sayin' I'm going to sneak over and take some pictures of it..
One of these days I will.. remind me..*

Okay, I'm sneakin' out,
Did I explain it okay?
*somedays I'd give anything for a pen and paper*
Let me know..

I put my compost in an old nylon stocking and tie it with heavy string just like a tea bag. I found this works better for me because I put my compost tea in a sprayer and I don't want any particles clogging up the nozzle.

Well I made it and this morning I used it. Everything got a spraying because it went a lot farther than I thought it would. I especially paid attention to the chinese lanterns that were really getting eaten and then the pepper plants which seemed to be second on all the bugs lists. They are all leaving the roses alone since I put the green onions on each side of them. Suprising what onions can do I guess lol.

I gave the hollyhocks an extra good dose too because they keep wilting everyday. I'm wondering if the planter doesn't have enough dirt in it for the hollyhocks. I really think that was the wrong place to put them but it's to late to move them now they are huge.

Thanks Weezie,

I'll do that with the batch I'm going to make up today. While we are on the subject. How often should I use the spray?
