Making Grass Clipping Fertilizer- Do's & Don'ts

I enjoy your energy 😌

I made weed tea in a kitty litter bucket, filled it about 2/3 of the way with weeds, then filled the bucket with water. Put on the lid, let it sit, and when I did finally open it, the smell was absolutely rank. I strained it, and use about a cottage cheese container full to a 2 gallon watering can of water. My plants seem to like it, they look quite happy.

Yep that smell is horrible right? and here I am making a whole garbage can of it🤣

Just checking in on you, Jose, and baby… Hope all is well!!

I fill a 5 gallon bucket about 3/4 the way up with weeds (not stuffed just put it in but don’t compress) then fill with water and put on a lid… 4-6 weeks later open lid and top off with more water and strain a week or two later and add a cup or two per gallon of fresh water

[@TheAdhdGardener]

Nice. How's the smell after u open the lid tho?

[@aaron_brown7324]

@@TheAdhdGardener pretty bad 😂…. Like pond sludge

Stink on hands can be erased with stainless steel. I rub my hands on the inside of my sink.

[@christiebrown6470]

I've washed my hands with vinegar before to remove the stench. Definitely can not leave that smell on. 😂

We haven’t stopped raining so I haven’t fertilized anything yet.

[@TheAdhdGardener]

Lucky that rain makes everything grow better. I'm waiting patiently for rain

[@antonianovoa6416]

I added charcoal to help, NOT COMPLETE, tamper the smell.....

Look up David the Good's fetid swamp water.

[@Steve197201]

Lol! If you really want to amend your soil with nitrogen, just add blood meal!

[@TheAdhdGardener]

I add that when planting the seedlings but just adding the fertilizer on top of soil?🤔 I've diluted it in water too b4 and added it
