So I sprayed it on my bromeliad to see if it would give me controlled growth of them.As with most growers I had been fighting scale for a long time. I look at them after about three treatment and found that the scale was gone. I have not had problems with scale since. I am careful of the amount I use on blooming orchids because it does stain them.
I was down your way not long ago and was at a nursey I thing was called Schrivners or something like and they had the Turf & Garden Pro in stock.
It is always great to talk to other organic growers.
