Comfrey tea

[Anita Plot]

First time I have made this. I know to dilute it but what needs feeding at this time of year. I think strawberries but, what else

[Bren In Pots]

I feed my toms, cucumbers, courgettes and chilli plants with comfrey.

[Anita Plot]

Thank you. Unfortunately my toms and courgettes are just about finished. I got the comfrey late on so it was not ready until now

You don't want anything putting out new tender growth going into winter, so hold off the feeding until spring

(you can sow winter salads now, but they don't need feeding anyway)

Will my comfrey tea keep until Spring please

Hi

Comfrey tea will keep I have had 4 litre milk cartoon with comfrey in with water for two years and it has been great, however the smell is ? Well I wait for your return.

Also have a blue barrel in the garden which gets topped up regular with comfrey, it's at the top of the garden it's stinks when the lid comes off.


A great add to your feeding regime and cannot knock the use other than brilliant feed and will in your patch add to your veg being more vibrant , bigger and more tastie veg.

I grow comfrey along the borders of my garden and cut at least four times in the season giving plenty of feed and also share with lots of the other allotment members as I have a huge produce of it over the seasons in the garden

Happy gardening
