Glad to hear milk has a benefit. When I buy fresh milk in warmer months, I like to dump the older stuff around my tomato beds - less for the nitrogen and more for the calcium.
I love the picture - if you are going to feed beer to your plants, give them the Rickard’s that somebody left after your last BBQ - keep the good stuff from Wellington Brewery for yourself.
Most places say one part urine to 10 parts water, but peoples different dehydration levels can vary that. If you’re on medication, I would not use your urine in your plants! Medication is excreted in your urine! It’s even found in city tapwater! This is why we should all be filtering our water before we drink it, unless you like the cocktail of pharmaceuticals from birth control pills to the little blue pill.
He tends not to respond so I'll help out. I don't see how coffee grounds are any different, other than having potentially reduced concentrations of those unwanted chemicals. "Used or spent coffee grounds still contain a significant amount of caffeine. A study conducted by The Department of Nutrition, Food Science and Physiology, School of Pharmacy, University of Navarra found that spent coffee grounds contained 3.59 to 8.09 milligrams of caffeine per gram of used coffee grounds." Egg shells are mostly calcium, but they take years to breakdown and become usable to the plants. If your plants are calcium deficient use an alternative source. However, egg shells ending up in the garden is almost certainly better than ending up in a dump somewhere, so you may as well.

@@Gardenfundamentals1 I didn't see any information about egg shells though. I have a 90+ yr old German friend (WW II survivor that swears by cooking egg shells and adding them to her gardens, which are spectacular like yours. What benefits come from this?
@@lcadieuxferland Egg shells can provide some calcium for soil. But it's my understanding that they need to be finely ground (in a good processor or blender) and it will still take a long time for them to break down to the point where there might be some benefit to plants. If you are just burying broken egg shells in the soil, they really are of no use in the short term. I grind mine up and put them in the compost pile, just because I hate throwing them out 😊. Most soil has plenty of calcium.
You're right about plants not saying thank you. I'm lucky if I don't get back handed because the beer wasn't cold enough.
Enjoyed your video and learning some new stuff for composting.
What do you think about Weed killers or preemergents like preem for crabgrass?
I like to give my plants Brawndo. It's got electrolytes! 💪🌻
It is, after all, the thirst mutilator.... and it has molecules.
Ha ha! Although I’ve never seen you roll your eyes, I don’t know how you haven’t! These are fun videos thank you for your knowledge
Question. The ionic liquid supplements that have fulvic and humic acids with the liquid would that be good to add for a plants? Thanks for Your info
The rice water idea, I believe usually is with the rinse water … places like Asia where they thoroughly rinse it
Who would even think about using some of those things?☃️❄️💚🙃
Gatorade is from the movie Idiocracy. :D
But there are benefits to supplementing CO other wise comical cannabis growers wouldn't use it
Cannabis growers are the biggest generators of myths I have ever seen.
The subscription “click” noise scares me every time.
haha!!

Had no idea so many of these were either useless or detrimental.
How do you pee in your plants?
Very carefully!
In a watering can first. Then 'water' the plant......... So I'm told
I part pee and 7 parts water ...straight pee is too strong for house plants and it'll burn the roots!

What about onion peel?
Until they decompose - months later - they don't provide any nutrients. Besides they stink!
@@Gardenfundamentals1 And worms don't like them!!
