Ok...this is just my humble opinion on the milk issue. I tried it...on my little heliamphora that has just FINALLY started growing and developing some heli-looking pitchers instead of those stick-like baby pitchers. I thought maybe the milk would give it a boost in growth. Well instead of a boost I now have a brown and dying pitcher.
I used a tiny drop of whole milk diluted a bit with distilled water. At first it looked OK, but then the top started browning...and now its browning ondown the pitcher. Oddly, the adjacent pitcher so far looks OK, but I'm watching to see if it follows suit.
I'm so upset at losing the very first heli-pitcher I've waited so long to get. Maybe I did something wrong but I think milk is off my list for a while.
Out of curiosity...anyone else tried milk with success?
I KNEW there was a reason I never drank milk after my mother took me off the bottle as a baby...it tastes like crap AND kills plants.
