How much do I use?

Every product below lists its mix ratio and rate. For an exact number based on your square footage or flock size, use the rate calculator.

2

When will I see something?

Depends on the product. Sanitizers work on contact. The biological products — soil conditioners, flock supplements, litter treatment — work with the soil or the bird rather than on it, so most of their results show up over weeks, not overnight. Each product page says what to watch for.

Apple Cider Vinegar for Chickens

Water line

Water delivery — how much apple cider vinegar for chickens: • General use: 1 oz per gallon of drinking water • Stress events (molt, heat, transport): 2 oz per gallon for 3-5 days • Maintenance: 1 oz per gallon, 3-4 days per week Tips: • Use a plastic waterer — ACV corrodes galvanized metal • Best results when introduced before stress events • Shake well before use — settling is normal for raw ACV

Backyard Poultry Bundle

Water — keep Mother Load ACV 3 days apart from Hen Helper

Hen Helper: • 1 tablespoon per gallon of drinking water • Use daily for the first 2 weeks, then 3-4 times per week Mother Load ACV: • 1 tablespoon per gallon of drinking water • Use 3-4 times per week as ongoing maintenance • Increase to daily during stress (molting, extreme weather) • Space it at least 3 days apart from Hen Helper (see tip below) Catalyst Vitamins: • Follow label directions for flock size • Use 2-3 times per week for maintenance • Use daily during molting, illness recovery, or extreme weather Tip: Hen Helper and Catalyst can go in the same waterer together. Mother Load ACV is a different type of probiotic than Hen Helper, so keep those two at least 3 days apart — running them together cancels out the beneficial microbes. Catalyst is a vitamin and mixes with anything, anytime.

Big Ole Bird

Water line (medicator or proportioner)

Standard protocol (broilers): • Days 1-3: 1 oz per 100 gallons (heavy dose for gut colonization) • Days 4-14: 0.5 oz per 100 gallons (maintenance) • Day 15+: 0.5 oz per 100 gallons every 3rd day Layers / Turkeys: • First 14 days: 1 oz per 100 gallons daily • Maintenance: 0.5 oz per 100 gallons 2x/week Stress events (heat, transport, vaccination): • Return to heavy dose for 3 days

Standard dosing: • Add 1 tablespoon per gallon of drinking water • Replace treated water every 2-3 days (or as waterer is refilled) New chicks: • Start on day one for best results • Same dose — 1 tablespoon per gallon Stress events (extreme heat, new birds, predator scares): • Double dose for 3-5 days, then return to standard

Litter Life

Video

Pump sprayer, boom sprayer, house washer, or ATV tank — any standard farm sprayer

Mix ratio: • 1 gallon Litter Life + 9 gallons water per 2,000 sq ft • 20,000 sq ft house = 10 gallons concentrate (mixed with 90 gallons water) • Optional: let the mix sit 1–24 hours before spraying Timing (before placement): • Apply 7–10 days before placement (best: 12–14 days) • Best on a bare pad; if not possible, apply on built-up litter before new bedding goes down • Close the house for 1–2 days after spraying to hold warmth, then ventilate Heavy ammonia: double the application rate.

Lawn & Garden

Soil conditioners, fertilizers, and turf care.

Bloom

Mix with water, apply when watering

Standard feeding: • Mix 2 oz (4 tablespoons) per gallon of water • Water plants as you normally would with the mixed solution • Feed every 1-2 weeks during active growing season (spring through fall) Winter / dormant season: • Reduce to once monthly or pause feeding entirely • Most houseplants slow growth in winter and need less nutrition Herbs and edibles: • Same dose — 2 oz per gallon • Safe for all edible plants

C-Fix: Biochar Soil Amendment

Soil incorporation or top-dressing

Gardens and raised beds: • Mix 5-10 lbs per 100 sq ft into the top 4-6 inches of soil • Best applied before planting or during bed preparation • Can be mixed with compost for added benefit Lawns: • Apply 3-5 lbs per 100 sq ft as a top-dressing • Rake or water in after application • Pair with overseeding for best results Container plants: • Mix at 10-15% of total potting soil volume • Combine with quality potting mix Note: Biochar works best when "charged" — pre-mixed with compost, humic acid (already included in C-Fix), or liquid fertilizer before application.

Chicken Manure Fertilizer

Hose-end sprayer, pump sprayer, or boom sprayer

Lawns and gardens: • Apply 2-3 oz per 1,000 sq ft • Spray with hose-end or pump sprayer • Water in lightly after application • Repeat every 4-6 weeks during growing season New construction / severely depleted soil: • Double rate (4-6 oz per 1,000 sq ft) for first 2 applications • Follow with Genesis for biological rebuild Crops and large areas: • 1-2 quarts per acre • Tank-mix compatible with most liquid fertilizers

Perfect Pot

Hand potting — fill containers and plant

Repotting: • Fill new pot 1/3 full with Perfect Pot • Place plant and fill around root ball • Leave 1/2 inch below rim for watering • Water thoroughly after repotting Topping off existing pots: • Remove top 1-2 inches of depleted soil • Replace with fresh Perfect Pot • Do this annually for long-term plants Pairing with Bloom: • Perfect Pot provides initial nutrients for 2-3 months • Begin feeding with Bloom plant food after that period

Soil Sulfur

Hand broadcast or rotary spreader

General pH reduction: • Apply 5-10 lbs per 1,000 sq ft depending on current pH and target • Work into top 2-4 inches of soil when possible • Always test soil pH before and after application Blueberries and acid-loving shrubs: • Target pH: 4.5-5.5 • Apply around drip line and work into mulch/soil • Retest in 8-12 weeks and reapply if needed Hydrangeas (for blue blooms): • Lower pH below 6.0 for blue flower color • Apply in early spring before bud set Important: • Do not exceed 10 lbs per 1,000 sq ft in a single application • Sandy soils require less sulfur than clay soils for the same pH change • Results are gradual — allow 6-12 weeks for full effect

Torched

Mix concentrate in a pump sprayer (8-10 oz per gallon)

Mixing (concentrate only — no dilution shortcuts): • Mix 8-10 oz of Torched per gallon of water (10-12 oz for hardy or mature weeds) • Shake well before AND during spraying — the oils separate from water • Spray foliage liberally from about 6 inches until thoroughly wet, avoiding run-off PLAN ON MORE THAN ONE PASS — this is the step people skip: • Torched is a contact killer. It burns down every leaf it touches, but it does not travel to the root the way a systemic chemical does. • Young annual weeds usually die in one pass. • Deep-rooted perennials (dandelion, thistle, puncturevine, established gravel-driveway weeds) need 2-3 passes, 5-7 days apart, to exhaust the root. • Expect the first pass to brown the top and the plant to push back green. That is the root spending its reserves — hit it again while it is weak. Stopping after one pass is the #1 reason people see regrowth on tough weeds. Conditions that make it work: • Apply on a warm (above 60°F), sunny, calm day — heat and sunlight speed the burn-down • Hit weeds while they're young and actively growing • Re-treat if it rains within 24 hours

PORT

Pour into the vault after pumping

Standard maintenance (per 1,000-gallon vault): • Add 2.5 gallons of PORT with 15 gallons of water • Apply when the vault has been freshly pumped • Let the vault fill to capacity — no additional product needed between pumps High-traffic periods: • Add 1 gallon of PORT between cleanouts, or as needed • Add extra water if solids begin to exceed the water line Tip: • Best results come from dosing a freshly pumped vault so the biology establishes before heavy use

Pour the PORT

Pour into toilet and flush

Monthly maintenance: • Pour one bottle into any toilet • Flush twice • Best applied before bed (gives bacteria 8+ hours of low-flow time to colonize) New system or heavy use: • Use 2 bottles the first month to establish bacterial population • Return to 1 bottle per month after Tips: • Avoid pouring bleach or antibacterial cleaners down drains for 24 hours after treatment • Consistent monthly use produces the best long-term results • Works in systems of all sizes — one bottle treats up to 1,500 gallons
