Nettle manure is a powerhouse in the garden—acting as both a nutrient-rich fertilizer and a natural insect repellent. As seasoned gardeners know, its simple recipe yields impressive results, though preparation takes time. Don't let it go to waste: here's our reliable method to store it effectively.
Filter your nettle manure and store it in airtight plastic containers for at least 12 weeks. Follow these steps for success:
1. Use a large sieve with fine mesh.
2. Pour the nettle manure through to filter it.
3. Remove all nettle residue for a clean liquid.
4. Transfer to well-sealed plastic containers.
5. Keep in a cool, dark place.
Your nettle manure is now shelf-stable for at least 3 months! For even finer filtration, strain through old pantyhose to catch every residue.
Avoid metal containers—this mixture is highly corrosive. For convenience, add a small tap to the container bottom for easy dispensing without repeated openings.
