Charlie Carp expiry date

Post by hawkeyes »

Hi, I have 2 bottles of above, 1 has 2002 on bottom, not sure of the other. Do you think they would be past use-by date. The bottles were left in shed by previous owners.

I contacted them a few years ago and they said it was still alright if it was still a liquid,but I would try it first on a not so important plant. :whistle:

They should be fine, just make sure it is Charlie Carp inside and not Motor oil :whistle:
Give the bottles a shake as they will be thick on the bottom.
Cheers

Thanks guy for the heads up. Maybe I should try it on a weed, if it perks up and doubles in size, it should be viable. LOL
