Using Your 8oz Concentrate

Your bottle holds a living microbial concentrate. To use it, dilute with water and a little molasses, which wakes the microbes and feeds them as they activate. Once in the soil they multiply and establish, so a light dose is all that is needed to seed your ground.

The Mix — 2 Gallon Watering Can

Fill your can with around 2 gallons of water. Rainwater or chlorine free water is best.
Add 2 tablespoons of concentrate.
Stir in 1 tablespoon of molasses until dissolved.
Let it stand for 30 minutes so the microbes hydrate and become active.
Apply to the soil and root zone the same day. Do not store the mixed solution overnight.

Using a 1 gallon can? Simply halve everything: 1 tablespoon of concentrate, half a tablespoon of molasses, into 1 gallon of water, with the same 30 minute stand.

How to Apply

For garden beds, water around the base of plants so the solution reaches the roots.
For grass, spread evenly across the surface, then follow with a light watering to carry the biology down into the soil.
Apply in the cool of early morning or evening, not in strong midday sun.
Repeat monthly through the growing season for ongoing benefit.

Chlorine in mains tap water can reduce microbe viability. If only treated tap water is available, leave it standing uncovered for a few hours first, or use collected rainwater. At this rate your 8oz bottle makes around eight 2 gallon watering cans, plenty to treat a typical garden or modest lawn across the season.
