so i finally was in a trader joe's and remembered to pick up a gallon of the aloe vera juice.
i know clack has recommended it on various threads around the site, but i'll be darned if i can't remember what for!
i thought this thread could be a go-to collection of the uses and value of aloe vera in a living soil garden.
the main thing i recall is that it works as a surfactant, and adding it to your foliar sprays can help the beneficials stick to the leaf long enough to be absorbed or established.
according to the bottle, it is full of vitamins, minerals, and amino acids, so that surely plays into it's usefulness to the soil food web as well.
thanks in advance!
