Suggestion, if you double bucket, with a damaged, or drilled bucket on the top, you can lift it out, and it would be a strainer!
I make free fertiliser from Comfrey that I have growing in the garden. I tear the leaves into pieces and push them down into a bucket and then fill with water. I cover that and leave well away from the back door. I add more leaves as they grow and after a few weeks I have a putrid bucket full. I give it a stir occasionally and when it’s well rotted, I sieve it into another bucket and then decant that into bottles. As soon as I have an empty bucket, I start another. Dead easy, excellent fertiliser and totally free.
Do you compost the leftover solids? Mine has very recognisable bits remaining even after months of it sitting brewing, using and topping back up with more water.
Hi,
I’m in Alberta, Canada. Last year I grew comfrey in my raise bed. Bcz in 2022 I planted them in 20 gallon bin, but in 2023 it didn’t grew bcz v have too much cold -50 insh. So last year again I order and planted in raise bed. So my question is did I did right thing, same bed I planted peas, beans and corn. But root of comfrey cause my veggies if I continue? Can u pls let me know?
I make the tea as well but never thought of decanting into bottles. What a great idea! How long does what you don't use store for? Do you just keep it outside?
Dandelions are actually very healthy and edible
arent you worried about pseudomonas???
Love the direction this channel is going. It just keeps getting better and better. Looking forward to self-sufficient Sunday. Thank you both.
It's easy to eradicate the smell. Simply add 1 talespoon (or maybe less depending on how bad the smell is and the size of the bucket) of sugar. Often brown sugar is specified but any old sugar will do. Then carry on as before. Iytwill have no effect on the plants but it aids in fermentation which removes the really horrible smell. So easy, so effevctive and so safe.
I love self sufficient Sundays!
I have been doing this for a few years now. Dandelion, thistle, dock and those persistent weeds you hesitate to put in your compost pile are great in it. They add fertilizer without the worry of spreading them. I like adding a handful of finished compost or forest floor soil to add to the biology. Looking forward to Self Sufficient Sundays!
Brian its best to put it he weeds in s semi pumable bag then put in the water. This contains the weeds from the water you can empty in compost when done or dispose of them in green waste bin.😊
I commented at the very START, of your “Free Beginner Gardening”, series, how so very MUCH I appreciate you for the uploads!! I cannot articulate how GOOD, these uploads are!! Once again, thank you Thank You, THANK YOU!!!! ✌🏻❤️

Looking forward to seeing self sufficient Sundays again 👍🏻👏🏻
so close to 1 million subs!!
I know!
I take all of my veggie and fruit scraps and put them into plastic cat litter containers, mix with water and just wait a few weeks. I have many in different stages of stink development. The stinkier the stronger. I call it my garden brew and shared with my son who uses it and can’t believe how well it works… for free!
I have a ton of cat litter containers that I filled last weekend with weeds and water. The whole time I was working, I was wondering if there is a market for it! LOL
Congratulations on your 1 million subscribers!!! 🎉❤
Yay! Self-sufficient Sundays! The more videos the better! 😊 Thank you Brian.
I started watching and learning from you in 2020, towards the end of Self Sufficient Sundays, I think. I can't thank you enough for your content and kindness.
Excited about self sufficient Sunday!!
Adding an aquarium bubbler will help a bit with the smell, since it won’t be stagnant water. I can’t wait for self sufficient Sunday!
Love Self sufficient Sundays. Glad it’s back
I started brewing this "tea" for the first time when you posted the video.
Today I smelled it for the first time transferring it from a kitty litter bucket to a 20 gallon bin to make more.
As a gardener that smell is wonderful because I know its going to really put the nutrients the weeds stole from my garden back into the soil. Tomorrow its getting sprayed in my garden with a pump sprayer; diluted, of course.
As a plumber...that smell is something that cannot be adequately described; worse than raw, fermented sewage. It'll definitely change the way your breakfast tastes the next morning.
Thanks for the videos. You've changed the way I garden.
I found your RUclips channel right when the Covid lock-down started in 2020. Yes, I remember Self-sufficient Sundays, and I'm glad to hear you're bringing it back!
Self sufficient Sunday sounds great
Yay! Self Sufficient Sundays are back!! 💃
Fetid swamp water, great stuff! I have two 5 gallon buckets over-wintered so It's definitely ready. It's a good idea in the Fall to brew some up for next Spring, especially when things haven't greened up yet.
I've been a fan since 2020, I remember self-sufficient Sundays 🌱 and tomato Tuesdays 🍅 😀
Woo hoo for self sufficient Sunday! 🎉
Great to use weeds that have gone to seed instead of throwing them in the compost and having weed seeds in the compost.
John Kohler calls it compost tea. Even old fruit and veggie scraps. Let them marinate in a bucket of water (with a lid to keep the stank at bay), and water your garden with it.
Glad you are bringing back SSS 🎉
I am currently weeding. Well, for the last two weeks. Not even a 16th through and 2 massive trash cans already filled. This is absolutely just at the right time. Going to buy buckets and fill them up for next year (we're in autumn right now). Thanks!
I remember glad it’s back!!!
I'm a free fa! All of my vegative kitchen scraps are thrown directly on my garden. Such an effective way to fertilize! No plants are pulled and discarded. Everything is left to decompose and fertilize.
Can’t wait !
We are on the road to self sufficiency, WooHoo 🎉 🥳 👏👏
Where are you ? USA?
Love love your house , dog, garden…. and of course You!
This is amazing! I pay around 15 euros a jug for fertilizer. I'm gonna save tons with this recipe.
Wonderful!
So happy for the return of self-sufficient Sundays! Always so much more to learn.😎
I would just add that it's really important to make sure it's strained well. The last thing you want to add to your garden is weed seeds. 👍
wouldn't they decay?
Oh nice, Self-sufficient Sunday! Thank you
How exciting bringing back self sufficient.
Found this channel couple of years ago. I’m in Northumberland England on east coast. Your channel has been so helpful & inspirational. Self sufficient Sunday sounds amazing. Looking forward to it 🤩
Love your helper! 😂😂❤
This is one of my favorite free tips! I also like that you are bringing back Self sufficient Sunday. I’m a before 2020 follower. 😊
Awesome! Love the Self Sufficient Sunday segment! Super!
Comfrey and nettles are also GREAT for your chickens too! Another weed that is a fantastic nutrient source for your Chickens is Dandelions!! Thet will eat the flower, leaves and roots. There are so many health benefits they can get from dandelions!
Thanks for this tip. I have definitely learned from you and Jess (R&R). Our house sits on a half acre, but my garden beds are 300 ft2. I'm a hobby gardener who produces some of what we eat and flowers.
CONGRATULATIONS on ONE MILLION subscribers, Brian! Well deserved! It’s been a wonderful ride.
I’m excited about the return of Self-sufficient Sundays!
❤️🤗❤️
Brian, I love all your content and I love your heart for gardening and self-sufficiency! I mean absolutely no disrespect when I say this, but as an herbalist, I encourage everyone to find out the health benefits of Comfrey and nettles, because they are very highly nutritious and helpful for making infused oils. I have no doubts whatsoever that they are tremendously beneficial as fertilizer as well. But they are definitely not weeds, they are tremendously wonderful, medicinal plants that even serve other plants! Thanks for all your amazing and free tips!
Someone also mentioned "pesky weeds" like dandelions, thistle and dock...all which have medicinal properties as well!
A weed is simply a plant growing where you don't want it to grow.
They aren't bad plants... just misplaced by nature 😂
Some " pesky weeds" I don't like. But, those same plants are wonderful elsewhere in my yard and garden 😊
Thank you for this! I used to make fertilizer from stinging nettle only. Using a mix of weeds is like a multivitamin. Why didn't I think of that, dahh!😆
Thank you so much for your generous and precious content!
I loved self sufficient Sundays and tomato Tuesdays ❤❤❤
Yay! I loved self sufficient Sunday!Looking forward to seeing it again!!
Amazing free fertilizer. Looking forward to Self sufficiently Sunday, as I do all of your videos.
Thank you Chris.
Thank you!
This is exciting! Love it
Congratulations on ! Million! Fantastic progress and well deserved.
Thank you!
Been with you before 2020 and sooooo happy for Self-sufficeint Sunday again!!! Yay!!!! :) Thank you!
Wow! 😊
Love love your new home. Keep it coming.
🌱 thank you ☺️
Will try this year. Thanks!
I was with you on 2020.
Yes I was and I loved it
I live in Florida and all that grows in my soil is weeds and thin grass. I’ll definitely be trying this out. Thanks!
This is such a useful tip, thank you!
Dude we are back on the same path! I started growing veggies again in 2019 and your channel was a god send. Since then I have learned so much about JADAM and other natural ways. Can't wait.
I was and I remember!
Love that! I've been with you for many years❤
You're so enjoyable to watch, follow and learn from!! Many thanks!!
Thanks for sharing 👃❤
Wonderful video!
Thank you very much!
I'm only at 2:30, so- like your dog. It's cute that you warned about gross and stinking
Stinky is a very apt description for the smell. I tend to apply mine in the evening as any earlier and flies would turn up in numbers as well
I’ve been watching your channel since 2020, and I make this every year! Peeeyou
I was following from 2020. Good idea for free fertilizer. 😊
Stinky but turns into yummy food! Thank you Brian! Blessings!
I remember self sufficient Sundays. As good as satisfying Saturdays but not quite as fun as freaky Fridays. I’m ready. Let’s go.
i started mine 😀
Yeah!!
I hope we are getting close to the monthly progress update video. I see lots of videos of planting, and lots of videos with full grown plants, but I would love to see more creators show the in between and end stages of plants, both with and without the use of fertilizer along the way. I think it's hard to visualize where plants should be at different stages of development.
Thats crazy!
Wow 😮😮😮
❤ Love the information. Lots of channels talk about weed tea but they don’t give details you do to successful make it. I look forward to every video. I don’t have to do a free garden but love the idea of being more self sufficient. You inspire me!
I do remember self sufficient Sunday and I do remember you making weed tea. You missed out by drinking the fake weed tea.😂 I generally don’t have enough weeds at home but I’m sure I could find enough around the neighborhood. If the tea smells anything like rotten grass everyone is in for a treat!!
I REMEMBER SSS! 👍🏻👍🏻
Wow ! Really loved this video! Fertilizer is so dang expensive!
Congratulations on a million!!
Thank you!
Congrats Brian. Well deserved.
Thank you!
Brilliant. Thanks Brian! After a batch or two, What do we do with the mushy plant waste? Can we put it in our compost pile?
Most excellent! These types of videos always hit the mark. Been listening since either 2019 or 2020, not sure how to know. THANKS.
I was just thinking of doing this today after watching a video on fertilizer for fruit trees
Congratulations! 1 million!
Thanks!
Thanks Brian! We were just talking about fertilizing this year. We make our own compost and it appears to be pretty rich in nutrients, but last year's harvest was less than previous years. I also failed to top dress the previous fall. I top dressed this year but we are also adding on to this a purposeful fertilizer addition to hopefully bump up our yield.
Congrats on 1 million subs !!!!
Thank you!
You did it! 1 million subscribers! Yay!
Thank you!
The world of Korean natural farming is a wonderful exploration. I made some of the fermented plant juice using brown sugar. Make sure you dilute a little goes a long way for sure.
I’m definitely going to try this!
Thanks so much!! And I do have some comfrey but it’s so small I’m not going to harvest the leaves right now
I have been doing this for a year. I use tomato trimming during the growing season. I have some I overwintered ready now and making more with our Spring abundant weeds. (I am in California also when nos is weed season) 😉
How cool is this, you made so many good videos I have followed you since 2020 when I started my garden, you have a beautiful place now, by the way I’m also staring a new garden at no cost 🤞it goes well, thank you 😊
Once again - LOVE IT!! When we had our little farmette, used to make manure tea. Without livestock now have a fantastic alternative. I wasn't with you 2020 - am looking forward to self-sufficient Sundays :O)
Love self sufficient Sunday. Glad its coming back. Love how Bella always had to get in the video. She sich a cutie 🥰. Thank you for the free fertilizer information.
You are so welcome!
This is awesome! Would be nice to know the ball park NPK on this.
I started watching and subscribed in November 2020. So excited for self sufficient content! 😊
Oh good!
Loving your Garden for Free series. Big congratulations on hitting 1 million subscribers Brian. I found you looking for Cali gardener channels about a year ago. I had decided I was going to retire in June and to start growing my own veggies since I would have the time. Watching you and others has helped my in my journey.
Thank you!
Do you have a video on mulching? What to use and not use. Is there a difference for the mulch of a vegetable garden, container, raised bed or ground. Does crop type make a difference? Thanks for your videos!
