While dealing with the problem and making a usable product out of it
is a good thing, that doesn't mean that it is good for all things.
It might be fine for using along a highway because the chemicals are
nothing compared to what the plants are subject to every day. That
doesn't mean that you necessarily want to be using it in your seed
starting mix or making tea from it.
Granted, I would rather have my food raise in mediocre compost than
with miracle grow and sprayed with all sorts of pesticides. But that
doesn't mean that I want to go out and use that as my product of
choice for making tes.
