Re: *organic* SFG?


I've also read (though never tried it - too yucky for me) that putting slugs into the blender and whizzing them together will give you a mix that you can spread around your plants to repel other slugs. Apparently they won't cross a line of their own (dead) kind.

Yes, I have a friend who keeps an old blender in her kitchen for just this
purpose.  She also "trench-composts" this liquid in a fallow section of the
garden, and rotates to different sections on a continuous basis.  (I hope
that makes sense.)
