The application of the dandelion preparation takes place — together with the four preparations described before it — as an addition in a kind of homeopathic dosage to composts, farmyard manures, liquid manures, and slurries. The measure is a three-finger pinch per approximately 1 m² of a garden compost cell, up to 10 to 15 m² for dung and compost heaps or deep-litter stalls and liquid manures. The preparation should take place immediately after the heap is set up; for liquid manures, immediately after the container begins to be filled. Instead of being hung in fabric pouches, the preparation portions can also be kneaded together with clay into balls and added in this form to solid and liquid manures. Repetitions are recommended after each turning of the heaps, or after the stirring and aeration of liquid manures. The preparations dampen the transformations that immediately start up again and thereby the excessive warming or the sharpness of the odors. Nitrogen and carbon remain «resident» in organic compounds. The dandelion preparation is moreover a constituent of the «collective preparation» — an intensively prepared concentrate on the basis of litter-free stable manure. It is scattered in small amounts onto the fresh manure before the daily mucking-out, or into the lying areas of cubicle housing stalls.
