Compost tea is a marvelous way to feed your plants and give them extra nutrients in a wholly natural way that is free of chemicals. You want to feed your friends and family only the cleanest and pesticide-free produce, so start out organic and you will have a “garden that produces healthy food. You will need a big bucket and the following to make compost tea:
- 2 cups fresh, homemade compost dirt
- 1 gallon of clean, filtered water
Add the water and the soil to a gallon bucket, and keep it in a place out of direct heat or cold. I use my outdoor shed, but a garage will also do nicely. Let your compost tea “brew” for a week, and give it a stir every other day. Watering cans are the perfect teapot for your garden. Strain out the dirt and pour the liquid into your watering can, where it will then be ready to serve up some serious nutrients to your garden.'
