I'm going to look around my local stores for those products mentioned and maybe something will turn up. Now if I do use the milk I have to find a good sprayer, do you think a common windex bottle {properly rinsed of course} will suffice?
Should work fine. If you have a lot of area to spray they sell bigger sprayers at most hardware stores. I use a 2 gallon model and I have to fill it twice.

sernade smells like shit
I've read some articles and they say the same thing and I checked my local store and it was a no go on the products you guys listed so I'm going with the milk. Grabbed some 1% skim milk {low fat} and we'll see if I can get some positive results.
From the sounds of it, there is a good chance it will work but knowing myself I probably fuck it up some how LOL.

i used 2% cause thats what was in my fridge. lol but i was thinking if you get low fat isnt that kinda taking away from what really is milk and cutting it with water?

dont spray it on your plants whipe the whole plant down with a soft sponge and dip it in the milk solution. i know its annoying and to be affective it takes a while i did 36 plants in 3 gallon pots one time. gotta wipe them off

I went with the 1% skim because of what I read seemed to make sense but I see your point lol. And I'm glad you answered because I would have used a sprayer instead of a sponge...so I'm obviously staying away from the buds right and just wiping the leaves.

Sorry for highjacking the thread btw, my bad.

Since thread title does not specify plant types, thought I would share my other trees. If I didn't have so many neighbors...these trees would be cannabis:

Pic 2 is a rose bush I planted like 8 years ago, behind the ivy I put in to cover the neighbor's shitty looking garage.
Pic 3 is called bee balm, just walked through a field of it(native wildflower)watering my "other garden".
Pics 4 and 5 are appropriately called jack-o-lanterns...they stay orange all the way til' halloween.

I hate those evergreen shrubs, but need them for my Christmas display.

Happy Day!

Hey everyone its awesome to hear people have been using milk and it working out for them. I have a similar method i use for pm that I've adapted from "Korean natural farming".
Basically you make a rice wash, which can contain million of different bacteria some good some bad. then here is where the milk comes in! you add your rice wash to whatever milk is avail, cow, goat, human (have yet to try but remember this is natural farming in places without refrigeration and often times electricity!), can even be evaporated dry milk!
basically by adding the dairy we are isolating the lacto b cultures most beneficial in protecting our gardens from mold, blights, etc. once you mix the rice wash and milk in a 5 gal bucket, (i usually do about 3 gals of organic whole milk from grocery to roughly 1qt rice wash) you cover it with a CLEAN tshirt ;) or even cheesecloth if you have it and let it sit for anywhere from 24-72hrs depending on the ambient room temp. once you remove the CLEAN tshirt you will notice a giant floating CHEESE LOG in your bucket! CONGRATULATIONS YOU'VE JUST MADE FARMERS CHEESE!!! this can be mixed with herbs and kept for human consumption (kind of like cottage cheese that you can press the water out of and make a paste and flavor to eat as a spread on some crustinis), or you can do as i do most often and feed it to your livestock your chickens even your dogs! The end goal being that you have strained said "cheese" from the remaining liquid. What you are left with is nothing short of gods gift to growers in serum form! It is pure lacto culture without the fatty residual of milk, all created and obtained from natural sources. You take your serum (i usually get about 2 3/4 gal left over) and put pour it back into your gallon jugs and store it in the fridge. if you have no fridge you mix your strained cheese free serum 1:1 with molasses. This technique has been proven to keep lacto culture serums potent and alive but dormant for years!!
I keep mine in the fridge and when i go to use it i will generally make a 5 gal batch to foliar spray. The ratio of serum to non clorinated water is 1:20!!! Same shit as serenade but doesnt smell like shit!
When you mix your lacto be sure to use clean ph'd non-clorinated water, and add 5ml or 1 tsp molasses per gal of h2o as a food source for your lacto culture.
This method was taught to me by an organic cannabis grower who managed greenhouses for cancer and aids/hiv patients, who need pure 100% organic mold free medicine. Under his supervision I knew of 5 patients who lost there battle to cancer and aids, but they had as much organic meds as they could consume until the very end.
Fuck spraying Eagle 20 and telling your patients or buyers that its "clean". I'm so sick of that dg2f grower mentality.
EDUCATE YOURSELF! You AND your garden are WORTH IT!
Happy growing to ALL!

ps i will drink a shot of serum 1-2x a month and my guts could digest a whole cow in a day, also mix it in with my chickens water and it keeps their chutes clean ;)

Oh the other funny one is when I go to the landscaping supply/soil yard and 99% of the customers are gardeners and professional landscapers but there is alway like one dude with dreads and a tie-dye shirt buying compost or worm castings. Lol.
When I contacted our local compost facility about compost, the first thing the guy said to me was "If your a medical gardener, you'll want some of our 'certified organic compost', all the pot growers rave about it" .lol.................sold!..........
