When brewing up what seems the standard 5 gallons of tea how much should I use per plant? I should say I'll be drenching not spraying. Also, should I dilute it as well?

No need to dilute it. I usually give them each a half-gallon.
(It takes a few batches before they all get some.) Figure that the bacteria and fungi in there, already in abundance, will propagate quickly in warm soil with lots of organic matter for them to eat.

Thanks Dice! It's funny because that's just about exactly what I figured. So either I did something right or did it wrong and got lucky.Modesty demands the latter. Thanks again for the help.
