How To Brew Manure Tea

Farmers have known for centuries the benefits of using composted manures in their feilds. Manure supplies many essential nutrients and minerals that plants need for strong growth and abundant production.

Many home gardeners have turned the other cheek when it comes to using manures in the garden. This is mostly because the idea of storing and handling manures brings about unpleasant thoughts.

But what if you could have the power of manures in your vegetable and flower gardens without needing to store or even handle  the manure?

Now you can with Authentic Haven Brand’s full line of premium soil conditioner teas. Authenic Haven Brand Premium Soil Conditioners offer gardeners a green-minded solution to using manures in the garden. The composted manure is packaged in an easy-to-use tea bag that allows the user to simply brew the manure tea with no fuss, no mess and no overpowering smell.

How To Easily Brew Your Own Manure Tea

Brewing manure tea using Authentic Haven Brand is the simplest process you will ever do in the garden. Let’s brew some of that golden brown tea your plants will love!

Grab A Container and Fill It With Water

The first thing you will need in order to brew Authentic Haven Brand “Moo Poo Tea” is a container filled with water. You can use whatever container you prefer that holds one to five gallons. A five-gallon bucket works perfect.

Make sure the container is cleaned and free of any contaminants. You can use a solution of one part water to one part vinegar to wash the container out. Make sure to rinse the container out thoroughly before brewing the tea.

Place An Authentic Haven Brand Tea Bag In The Water

Once you have the container filled with fresh, clean water, simply place an Authentic Haven Brand tea bag in the water. You can place the container where ever it is most convenient for you, but the tea will brew best if in the sun. Just a few minutes after placing the tea bag in the water you will begin to see the water start to change colors.

Let the tea bag steep, or soak, in the water for one to three days.

Note: If using a bucket like the one used in this demonstration cover it while brewing the tea to avoid mosquitoes from using the water as a breeding ground.

That’s It!

After allowing the tea bag to soak in the water for at least a day, you will have a golden brown manure tea that is ready for use!

    Enjoyed your presentation at the OC Rose Society last Thursday. Cannot wait to use the “Tea” on my roses and plumerias as well as geraniums. They will be so happy.

    Once brewed, can the tea bag be re-used for a second time?

  7. I recommend steeping the Authentic Haven Brand tea bag in 5 gallons of fresh water, you can then dilute it with another 5 gallons = 10 gallons. Fill another 5 gallon bucket with fresh water and steep your used tea bag per instructions (this batch will not be as dark, however there are valuable nutrients to be had) = 15 gallons per tea bag. I hope this information helps. You can also brew small concentrated batches and dilute one cup tea to 8 cups water.

  8. Yolanda Courtney says

    Thank you Annie for your immediate response. Your info is greatly appreciated!!!

  9. Hello, I’m just wondering if you could use warm or hot water to speed up the process of making the teas? Thank you.

  10. Hello Mariza,

    I apologize for the delay in my reply to you, for some reason your question was missed. It is best to steep the tea in cool tap water, you can steep it in the sun, using hot water will not be good for the live organisms that are so beneficial to the soil and plant roots. Please feel free to email me at info@manuretea.com or call the office at 949-248-1249
