Hey i have a fresh nettle tea thats been sitting stagnant for almost 2 weeks now. I was just wondering if i could store it for later use? will it go bad in a shed in bottles? does it have to be in the fridge??? How long can i save it bottled up for? Thanks

Do some research on *FPE's* (Fermented Plant Extracts*, which is pretty much what you're doing.

Good stuff, but stinky.

There is a lot of FPE discussion in Matt's Veganic thread, and Malignants veganic cheat sheet. Since veganics does not use animal products then more plant based feeds are utilized.

I do believe you can use nettle tea as a foliar feed or mix with water and feed that way.
Apperently when you foliar feed, it acts as a natural pesticyde. and improves the plants ability to fight off diseas and increases immune system.
I Actually jus applyed some nettle tea in the ratio of 10 parts water 1 part tea to a plant. The tea had been frementing for 9 days. Is 9 days long enough for a nettle tea to be done frementing?
