Only in moderation. ![]() You may use it straight or you may dilute it with water on your next watering. ![]() Beer kicks in the microbes in your soil and helps your plants grow. Pour some on your compost pile if you have one and just watch it go. I use it also to kick up my compost tea a notch!!!! ![]() Last edited by cincinnana : 07-12-2013 at 01:10 PM. |

I would add to compost and then add to plants..beer will attract slugs snails and other unwanted pests..compost first might just be the trick
