I am a young farmer searching for a recipe for liquid fertilizer. I would like to find a simple mostly organic formula. If any body has any advise I would be extremely gratefull.

I'm pretty sure manure is available as a liquid.

I'm thinking of becoming a farmer too. I've heard of several different liquid fertilizers. ah yes, I read that the farmers collect dried cow manure that has aged for a while, put into a pillow case and dump into a big container of water. and they use that water as fertilizer. They may aerate the water.

Worm tea, which is the liquid that flows out of earthworm bin is said to be a good fertilizer.

I used seaweed extracts and I'm quite impressed with the product. It can make the roots of orchids grow well. and for some plants, it makes them flowers just a few days to a week after application, but it is expensive though. If only I can replicate that.

and there is a Urine and wood ash combination, which may have some research done by a university, don't know where is the paper , I have a rough idea of it only.

The koreans picked several plants that grow wild and process them, like put into a pail of water to rot, and use the water as fertilizer. I've heard of that but don't know the details. <br>

Plants nead nitrogin, potasium and phosphate to grow. Animal waste contain a small amount of nitrogin.Why dont you try to pass your water throuhh a ozone generator. The ozone generator also produce a small amount on NOX which is good for the plants.
