I was a bit late but it's ok, you can normally keep the compost jus for 48 hours after it finishes.
I controlled the smell and it was less strong than before, not a bad smell, it was normal fresh soil odor, if it smelled anything else than that I wouldn't have sprayed it.
I removed the compos socks, the air diffuser, added my water pump instead and sprayed my garden/veggies, sadly I didn't had enough for the potatoes, which were also in dire need.
So I know now approximately how much I need, between 70 and 100L of water. With such quantity I'll need a bigger barrel to avoid the the bacterial mucus overflow.
I could have added some endomycorrhizal fungi to the mixture but I forgot :p .
Hopefully I will see results soon.
I'm already seeing results with endomycorrhizal fungi for some cherry tomatoes and leeks the results are astonishing.
I think some of the fungi Hyphae linked both the roots of cherry tomatoes and leeks, because the leeks closer to the cherry tomatoes are quite bigger than tho that are far away from them.
I know some fruit trees do that, as for vegetables, vegetables from different species idk if it's possible, but the mycorrhizal fungis are family are symbiotic with 95% of all plants.
Sadly I can't prove that ;;
Maybe it's just some companion plant thing idk.
One thing that I quickly noticed in that spot of the garden is that there are worm casts appearing meaning that the soil dominated by bacteria.
Worm casts are 50% higher in organic matter than soil that has not moved through worms
Note:
Worms process soil particles in search of food. Individual particles of minerals and organics are ingested and ultimately excreted as aggregates; these are so large, they are readily identified as worm castings. https://loadaverage.org/attachment/6101732
