Enviro ice / recycling option - plant food nitrogen based #869916
Asked May 24, 2024, 11:17 AM EDT
We receive the Enviro ice packs with monthly meds. A recycling option is to use as plant food since it’s nitrogen based. However it gives no real instructions. Is it really good for indoor and outdoor plants. Can it be used on edible plants too? I’m hesitant to use without real instructions. Any info you can share would be helpful. Thank you.

Hi- the company states that it can be used on vegetable plants. The specific ingredients are a trade secret (not listed on the MSDS).
