I do it every year. Nothing special in my opinion. Other friends have experimented with it too.

I just mixed a batch of aspirin water according to the links you gave JungleRain and gave it to my plants which seems under stress.

will let you know if it works out

Last season was a disaster of sorts for me.
I tried Aspirin during planting to treat seeds. No it did not work.
I had planted Pusa Jwala and Sannams in two containers.
Normally I get sprouting in about 10 days a t the max. Nothing worked for 6 weeks.

I threw away everything in a very large pot I have.
After 2 weeks, I had 40 plants of Sannam and Pusa Jwala.

The big problem was, since everything got mixed up, I did not know till the fruits started, which was which.
So much for Aspirin.

Doesn't work, I have tried and it just leaves the cakey mildew on everything .... it doesn't work in regards to any kind of quick fix. perhaps adding aspirin for the long term might have some benefit but I haven't noticed any home runs in using it.
