Never fails, I get set up for an afternoon of garden work and people just drop by... I had everything set and made two pails of the dip mix made up for potting up the rest of my peppers and had company drop in and visit for the rest of the day. I'm not likely to get another shot at potting up until next weekend.
I tossed some molasses in the mix to give the good guys some carbs to start working on, but I'm thinking that I'm better off just chalking it up as not usable by next week. Should I drench my container tomatoes so it goes for a good cause or do you think I can stick it in the garage and have it still be effective next weekend? |

Based on absolutely nothing, I'd drench.

Thanks folks! I was pretty sure I'd be drenching, but was just hoping someone would tell me "Oh, I've done this and it worked even better after they multiplied over a week!"
