There's a lot of passive-aggressive behavior in this thread.

Thanks for the reminder Frank! I promise to behave. Sometimes I get carried away if there are very unfair comparisons.
I too was a big skeptic of the product. I have been presented with scientific data, testimonials from small farmers to big growers. Suffice it to say that I had an open mind and tried it as directed. So now I am sharing this information.
Our botanist is from Australia, he used to be my graduate teacher, and he too was a big skeptic, working for Golden Circle and doing some consultation jobs with other big growers of bananas and olives and other crops as well as most big growers in the Asia-Pacific rim. But he kept an open mind and tried it, as the chief researcher and department head of Agronomy. So he conducted trials and he discovered many other properties of the product. He was so excited at the results and quit his job and became the Vice President for Research and Development of the Company. He later hunted me down to help lead the company. And I was a big skeptic of his claims!
When I approached Benny, he was very skeptic of what the product can do, and was reluctant to part his $50 for a 2-liter bottle. I had no time to explain to him all the scientific blah-blahs, so I just use the words "trust me, it works!". He only let go of his money when I gave handed a gift of home-made banana wine (which I owe him anyway from years past ). But I was sure glad that Benny has tested it for himself, and bought another bottle without any prodding. Anyone can read his excitement from his posts, and the amazing results he has observed.
All I ask from the fellow hobbyists is to try it. I would love to give you free trials, but we are just starting and it could bankrupt us, just the shipping costs alone, and more so because the raw components are very pricey, so we need help by at least paying some of it (I will give you my board member authorized commissions from each bottle ) . And after you test it and think that its benefits doesn't justify the cost, we can't force you to re-order.
And when you test, follow the directions carefully for maximum effectivity. We have used the products on various crops the world all over, got feedback from our users, and we have refined the use to minimize cost and maximize benefits. We found out that while the general dilution and application rate works well, each type of crop have different timing of use and dilution of the product to achieve maximum benefits. We haven't documented the various crops yet, but it is coming, and you can holler if you need specific applications that has not been listed yet.
