Per "The New Seed Starters Handbook" By Nancy Bubel

Use nettle tea to control damp-off
Per an older OG Mag. Make Nettle tea by taking a 5 gal pail
fill 2/3 full with nettles. Add water at 100F and marinate for 3 weeks.

Now, in my Zone, nettles are not big enough to cut until the end
of June, another 3 weeks if marinateing brings me to the end of July.

How do I apply nettle tea to my seedlings in April, when I can't
get the stuff until the end of July ???
