They say nettles takes 2 weeks for a similar process. As for manure - Ensure you dont get it on leaves of the plants as it could be too rich and scorch them.

everything I've read says "dilute to the colour of weak tea", we leave it to mature about 3 months before we dilute it
it suppose it depends on the amount of manure and how much water   ;D
