hey, i've been growing leo some veggies in a pot on the windowsill, but they are not growing so fast now that they've about used up all the nutrients in the soil. I'm wondering if putting miracle grow on it will transfer anything harmful to leo. i have been careful about using chemical free organic soil and i'm just wondering if that would be a bad idea to go chemical at this point!

I don't think so, just don't use any chemicals on the leaves/vegetables.

Sure, feeding your plants Miracle Grow won't hurt. Be sure and wash the veggies before you feed them to your turt - just as if you were feeding them to yourself! :D

Or you could just "repot" them into more organic soil.
