I was watching channel 5 San Antonio, today, and it was on the dirt doctor tips for vegetables and flowers and he was making this spray, but I didn't get the amounts down, so could someone please give it to me.
Our tomatoes are in need of some help, the bushes seem to die before
we can harvest the crop.

Garlic/Pepper tea:
2-3 garlic buds (large off the clove)
1 hot pepper
Throw them in the blender with 2 cups of water and blend them to oblivion.
Strain out the liquids and toss them in the compost pile.
Mix 1 cup of the concentrate with 1 gallon of water and spray everything.
And by the way, mix 1-2 cups of plain cornmeal into the soil around the feet of your tomato plants and they'll get much happier very quickly. Next year when you plant your seedlings, dig the hole, toss in a handful of cornmeal, work it around in the soil, plant the seedling and you won't believe the beautiful plants you'll have. Works every time.

Thanks Kathy for the reply.
When I was watching the dirt doctor Saturday morning, I noticed
also you can use chili pequins peppers. We have those on hand,
so I will try the spray with those.
