Has anybody ever used Milk On there plants besides me?
I have used Milk On plants for years basically to make leaves shine on rubber plant leaves and it works amazing.When I started growing outdoor weed plant I decided to research Using milk more further and through experimental use I have not only found it to be amazing but saved plant s many times.So by now like always your probably saying this guy is nuts and you would be right but not in this case.
Benefits and there is only benefits.
1) Milk has every nute a plant needs.
2) antifungal will kill powdery mold almost instantly.
3) will kill any soft bodied bug when sprayed on your plant. Soft bodied bugs have no pancreas so when they eat the milk they bloat and die.
(Spider mites yes and feed your plant at the same time) 30% milk 70% water spray on plant under and over leaves , soil , and stems.
4 ) when foliar spray on plants it creates protection from things even thinking of starting and feeds you plants the right stuff especially during flower amazing.
Now having said all this I don't hose my plants down with milk every day just a few times a year and during breezy days they drink it up.Also for any bug or mold issue that arises.
My experience with milk is only outdoor grows indoor is another animal but don't see why it wouldn't work the same.
Don't believe me do your own trials and see.Natural is always better.
There is some info on internet mostly for house plants.
Ok now let me hear how crazy I 'am lol

I think indoors can sour and stink the place up! Seen it used for p.m.! If I’m not mistaken, I think G Nick might have used it a year or two ago on his outdoors! I could be wrong though! 4 PM!
