Manure tea for seed starting,

I use a 3 lb coffee can full of well
composted cow manure, in 1 leg of panty hose.

Placed that in a 5 gal plastic bucket and let it "Steep" for a couple weeks.

Saved the "Tea" is a used liquid dishsoap container IIRC 42 oz..
You probably won't need that much unless you are growing a lot of plants.

I used 1 tsp of this in a gal of water.   I am still in the experimental
stage with this stuff.

The plants did not like 1 tbsp per gal of water.

   Yes I would be very interested in that recipe along with the manure one I
read you used on "Ring of Fire" peppers this past spring.
  How did you make out with frost last night/this morning.
Saved all peppers but lost everthing else.
