We have also found that spraying the window solution (1-2 drops of Basic H2 to 16 oz of water) on wilty houseplants, will perk up the leaves nicely. You can read some of my other uses for Basic H2 in my post about <a href=\"http:\/\/midwestgreenliving.blogspot.com\/2011\/01\/green-cleaning.html\"><span style=\"color: rgb(0, 153, 0);\">how I went from 20 cleaners to only 3 non-toxic ones<span style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"><\/span><\/span><\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>I am excited to see our garden grow!
