We have also started putting down our pre-emergent and I have even
started using the alfalfa tea (mush) on my little guys. Since this is
the first time I have made tea I was wondering if I did something
wrong. My tea was not really tea. It is more like mush. There was
still a lot of alfalfa goop in the bottom of the bucket. It required
some pretty serious stirring to get it all afloat and then I had to keep
it stirred or everything settled back to the bottom of the bucket
again. Maybe I need to let it sit longer before using it. I put 2 cups
of pellets per gallon and 1 1/2 - 2 cups per plant. Does that sound
about right? I know we have hashed this subject over and over but for
some reason I con not seem to get it right. Sorry for the redundancy.
