Date: February 07, 2008 11:12PM Does anyone know if it is harmful to take the juice pulp and work it into the garden soil without going thru the one-year-compost routine? I'm not ambitious enough to start composting but I don't want to harm the plants. TIA. --Stacie Re: Juice pulp in the garden?

Date: February 12, 2008 06:46PM The pulp won't attract animals if you dig a hole first then put the pulp in and cover it up. I do this every summer and there is no smell and no animals get attracted to it. The pulp is excellant for the soil and worms. Sorry, only registered users may post in this forum.
