Default Re: Compost Tea

I should add that you need to thin your compost tea before application. I usually fill about 8 or 10 5 gallon buckets with tap water and let them sit overnight. The next day I add the compost tea a few cupfuls at a time until I run out. I stir this up and then pour over my plants. If you spray the mixture on the leaves of apple trees in the spring (and on the soild around the bases) it is supposed to prevent Cedar-Apple rust, but I won't be able to test that theory until spring.
