1. Find a seller of a product called Black Hen, which is processed and pelletized chicken manure. Made by same folks who produce Black Kow.

2. Fill a 5 gallon bucket (like an empty plastic bird seed can with a top) with water.

3. Wrap about 2 -3 cups of the manure in an old T-shirt and secure with a twist tie or storng cord.

4. Drop the manure sock in the water and leave for a few hours or days.

This makes a fine manure tea which can be used without further dilution. It not only provides something like 5-7-3 but probably some trace elements as well. I use about every 2-3 weeks. It's organic, cheap and easy to use and keep. And with no overwhelming odor because of the process the pellets went through.
