Cole, You wouldn't like my pickles. I make fermented pickles. It's a process that uses naturally occurring bacteria that is in the air all around us. They look foamy and cloudy and my nephew said "there is something wrong with those pickles". They taste SOOOO GOOD! and good for you! Pickles were made this way since ancient times.
I guess what I'm trying to say is let nature take care of itself. The tomato plant will take what it needs and you eat the tomato, not the manure. I made a chicken manure tea some years back. No pasturizing or microwaving, just straight manure and water. I used the stinky mess for my tomatoes and guess what? Tomatoes did fabulous and the tomatoes were GOOD! Stop worrying.
