'spoil' - that was my first thought when i read about this treatment.
aren't you going to have milk spoiling on your roses? isn't that
going to smell to a certain extent?   i don't think the perfume of
roses and the stinch of sour milk would mix very well.

again the question - has anybody tried this treatment?  does it smell?
