Lawn Tonic??????

[justinp20012500]

Has anyone ever experimented with this "Lawn Tonic"



Put all ingredients in a 10 gallon lawn sprayer and water after mowing...



One Beer (not a light beer)

One regular can of soda (not diet)

1/2 cup ammonia

1/2 cup mouthwash

1/2 cup dish washing detergent (not anti bacterial)



Use this every three weeks.



It says the detergent is a wetting agent that helps get the roots the things it needs.



The soda and beer are essential food that the lawn needs.



And the ammonia is what makes it green.



O ya, and the mouthwash kills grubs and other bugs.





I have been trying this for about two Weeks now and will post the results.

Why put it in a 10 gal. sprayer... . you have less than a gallon of ingridients?

When I bought my house about a year ago the yard was in pretty bad shape. The front yard has come around pretty well, but the back yard is another story.



PS Dont use Scotts w/Halts if you lawn is more than 50% crabgrass!!! Doooh!

I know what type of sprayer you are talking about, but its the sprayer that attaches to the end of a garden hose.



Heres a link to one similar that I has been using.

Hey Justin do they require that you use that crappy 3. 2% beer from Utah?



I grew up on that beer when I was young and lived in Utah. That's one of the things I don't miss about Utah. The stuff went right through ya. LOL

 

[justinp20012500]

I know what you are talking about. The 3. 2 stuff is really bad!! But you can sure drink alot of it.



I usaully make it to Wendover, NV about once a month for a Texas Hold em tournament, thats when I stock up on the good stuff.

 

[RankRam]

Yep and the Jack is cheaper here in good ol Nevada.



I still have family (in-laws) out there and have to make a delivery of the good stuff when we venture over there.
