ingredients

¹⁄₄ cup miconized iron
1 gallon hot water
2 cups corn syrup
4 teaspoons chlorine bleach

directions

First, go down to your local garden center and ask for miconized iron.
Add all ingredients together.
This stuff is powerful and can stain carpets so be careful.
Make sure to trim an inch off the tree trunk, at a slight angle, and the ends of stems of greenery.
Add more brew as it evaporates.
