It doesn't seem too long ago that Milorganite carried a label that said not to use it on vegetable gardens. Now, on Googling Milorganite, I see that many people are using it on veggies. I don't know, putting what started out as sewer sludge around any edibles just gives me the willies.
I wonder if Milorganite itself is different from what it was. Seems like one of the problems with it, besides the obvious, was a high concentration of heavy metals.
Is anyone else reading this thread using it?
