i thought i had posted it in this or another thread in this forum. i did not so here it is.



2 cups of milk (whole milk is supposed to be better but any will do)


if you use whole milk then use 1 teaspoon of dish detergent NOT anti bacterial or it'll kill all the beneficial bacteria on your plants! the soap helps the fats in the milk to stick to the leaves.


2 quarts of water


optional - add appropriate quantity of liquid concentrate of fish or fish and seaweed emulsion for 2 quarts of water, i use 1/2 tablespoon of neptune's harvest fish emulsion.


apply early on a day you'll have sun when the leaves are dry. the sun is supposed to add to the beneficial effects of the milk on the leaves.
