I've read about this, has anyone tried it?
Results vs effort?
it is pure BS no benefit at all
milk is pretty toxic to most plants! try it and see, ' water' one of your favourite houseplants with diluted milk, see what happens.
feeding milk is a complete nonsense however useing milk correctly for treating against powdery mildew is another matter i have used it the last couple of years as a foliar spray by useing very low fat milk ie 1% fat milk diluted in water at 10 to 1 mix 1 part milk to ten parts water seemed to be very good i did a control with marrows and pumpkins and the plant i didnt do the spray to got pm much worse than the plants i did use it on regards mal
Agree with Mal and the other guys. Complete rubbish. The same goes for beer. Save your beer and drink it instead !
Pete.
ps, I have tried the same method as Mal for the control of powdery mildew. It works !
Thanks for the feedback guys.
As far as the Powdery Mildew cure; I'll try that this year as this good weather surly cannot last!
Thanks again,
Mike
Drink the beer, or the milk (if you can face the stuff; I can't), then water the plants with the end product.
Sounds a bit drastic that one Robert, BUT does it work????
Someone told me beer, which I was hoping to cheat with ;D ;D ;D
It's got lots of nitrogen so it'll certainly make them grow!
I am treating powdery mildew with diluted milk, so far it is not prgressing so it seems to work. A local told me that it also works in preventing various mildews in potatoes and tomatoes...
