I started brewing my Symbrew Wizards tea a bit early this year.....With the hot temps we have had I got major bubbling going on.....I used 30 lbs of Cow and two bags of the finest maple leaves I could find. I also thru in a darnkened clump of oregano roots which had alot of compost in it. Do I have to wait via the Argro-K date due to the young plants not being able to handle the ferts?? or can I put a little on now?

I've had this same question in the back of my mind...kinda surprised at the lack of responses....

After observing my own Symbrew, I decided early on that after it stopped "boiling", I would wait one week then start laying it down.

Not sure if it's important but, I stirred mine REAL good right before I pulled from the pot. I rationalized that the real good stuff might be on the bottom.

I am not quite, in tune, with the schedule Craig gives, on his Agro K schedule, of application. However by going early I also go very light, by cutting with water, to yeild very light tea. Even, in the schedule periods I halve the tea with water and apply, by drenching.

If you plan, to apply, through irrigation one needs, to know if the biology can pass the emitter systems. If you apply, by spray wand, you need a concrete applicators nozzle that passes thirty percent solids, to assure passage, of all living biology without squeezing or smashing them, on application. If you are not sure about these things stay with a drench system, from a sprinkling can.
