Using Beer in the Garden

RE: Using Beer in the Garden Post By Ella (Guest Post) (06/28/2006) I think the recipe calls for 1 cup of beer, 2 T whiskey, 2 T fish emulsion, 1 T corn syrup, 2 T ammonia, 2 T dishwashing liquid and warm water in watering can with warm water, use every 3 weeks. RE: Using Beer in the Garden Post by LizCar (43) | (08/23/2005) Contact I read of a homemade fertilizer made with very small amounts of beer, household ammonia, whiskey, I believe, plus maybe some more stuff. It was in an Atlanta paper 10 or more years ago. I haven't been able to locate it, and I wouldn't want to try it out without having the proper measurements. The person who wrote the article said not to be afraid to use this "petal punch" on the whole yard, not just for flowers. Does anyone have this recipe?

RE: Using Beer in the Garden Post By Mary (Guest Post) (08/19/2005) If you have slugs, put a saucer of beer out for them. They crawl in, drink and die. And I do'nt feel the least bit sorry for the slimey things! Beer for the Plants Post by ThriftyFun (4042) | (08/19/2005) Profile | Blog! | Contact Have any flat or stale beer?
