OK, here's a strange nutrient question...

[jblo]

We've got an expired can of baby formula.  Does it have any use as a soil amendment?  It's got a fair amount of minerals in it.
 
Just seems a waste to throw a whole can of formula away...
 
I could just dump it in the compost bin too...

Are they baby plants? j/k!...I'd suggest compost bin...

Is it milk based? I wouldn't put any dairy in the compost bin.

Ah, good point.  Because of the LB cultures, I assume?

A little reading suggests that it's because dairy smells as it decomposes, right?
 
I've got a 55g barrel that I've converted to a compost bin and it's nearly full so I think I can mix one can of formula in without too much trouble.

 Maybe some baby poop but no on the formula
