Don't know if this was a good idea or not. I ground up some old vitamins I found in the cupboard and sprinkled in the garden. I felt I couldn't just throw them out, or dump them down the toilet. I feel maybe the plants will get some benefit from them. Let me know what you think, good or bad! KarenP

I'll look it up as much as I can... Just regular "balanced nutrition" type vitamins may be okay, as they contain iron and a few other nutrients that plants need. I would not do any Prescription drugs - those might be toxic. |

Thanks Lynn, Do not have any prescription drugs, and for sure would dump them in the toilet or especially the garden! I won't let my husband even put weed and feed on the lawn. KarenP

Karen, I've done that too, except I dump mine in the compost, hate to see them to go total waste, I"ve had no problems so far?
