angel, I have never made seaweed tea, but I have made lots of manure tea, compost tea, I usually make alot, so I use a 5 gallon bucket, fill ot half full of manure or compost then finish filling with water. let it sit for about 3-4 days, then strain it off into another bucket using a screen. I weaken it then put in a sprayer to spray foliage. hope this helps
