Comfrey Tea
« on: May 09, 2010, 22:37 »
I seem to have a lot of Comfey Tea. 

Is there anything that wouldn like a drink of it?

Thought i best find out before i give everything a splash  :D

O and i do mean my fruit and veg , thats before some one posts they would not  care for  some  :D :D
I'm very important. I have many leather-bound books and my apartment smells of rich mahogany.

I've been advised to feed the tomato plants with mine. Makes the poly tunnel pen and ink though! ???
Last years went on the potato patch. Good for bruises too so they tell me!

we put an onion bag full of comfrey leaves and stalks into a 45 gallon drum of water ,

leave it for 3 weeks

give it a good stir (pong pong) then feed everything with it,

the spuds and toms get the most

we usually get about 4-5 cuttings from comfrey plants per year ,

so roughly about 200 gallons of free plant feed , yippee,

Watering the compost heap with it helps everything to rot down a little quicker
I was put on this earth to accomplish a certain number of things; right now I am so far behind I will never die.
