A Gardeners Forum Forums Members History Forum Life 2006 how many use alphalfa compost tea?

first of all is this the right place to post this?

if so, i absolutely love what it does to my roses and flowers BUT the smell after a few days, makes me wretch. i think this year i'm gonna leave the blood/bone meal out and see what that does. or not cook it so long. start using it after two days instead after the fourth day, that might help too, i dunno know, but we'll see.

This is very high on my list of things to try this spring. Do you use a bubbler while your brewing?

hi roger, nope all i use is one of those huge plastic green trash cans with a lid. mix all the goodies fill with water and make sure that it gets sun from am til about 1-2 pm. stir once a day. like i said on the 4th day its a little stout, well actually it stinks!! but all my plants love it, plus i usually can get another weaker batch out of it. basically i'm lazy so the easier the better, the hardest part is filling up the water can. i'm thinking this year to do one on each side of the house. so i don't have to walk around the house with the can. (told ya i'm lazy)
