Default Iron Phosphate and Killing Slugs the continuing saga


Well Billy gave me url http://www.sciencelab.com/page/S/PVAR/SLF1372

Plan was to use one gram to 100 grams of waste bread. Since the Iron
Phosphate is not water soluble I planned to dissolve it in acid. Not
wanting too strong a acid I thought I would use Coke a Cola which has a
pH of about 4. Looks like this recipe will be for next year.

Any comments?
