Vodka in the garden !

16 years ago

Nobody ever stated if you added a little Vodka to your plant water but I truly believe that the roses which now are comming into bloom here in Ca. have gorgeous colors. My cuttings started growing in water with just a bit of Vodka overnite which generally could take a couple of weeks.. Somehow I think when you put the Vodka in the water it makes waves or magnetic looking forces and maybe that could be a form of oxygen. Just wish someone out there played this game too.. debbysunshine@hotmail.com

oh our dear debby I love it and i'll try it in the Spring time when i'm outside in the garden. i should say it must be beneficial at least killing the germs; in the troat and/or plants:-)

****** no wonder why my grandpa in Europe was carrying a bottle in his pocket while gardening and everything grew.
