Re: AZ41 - multi-purpose spray
 

Can anyone tell me why there is so much talk about the price of AZ41?
You either buy it or you don't. I don't what to sound mean, but if it works
then it works if not you don't buy it any more. I myself think it worth a shot.

Re: AZ41 - multi-purpose spray
 

I don't mean to 'instigate' but to answer your question, here's where it started:

Re: AZ41 - multi-purpose spray
 

Thanks Patty, I was just wondering. I hope now we can move on .
I would like to know what people think about the product. I applied
a week ago. Seems to be working , But it has been raining the last couple of days. I think I might have to spray again.

Re: AZ41 - multi-purpose spray
 

Hi Paula, read back for some testimonials!
If you sprayed a few hours before it rained, it already absorbed thru the leaves & you won't have to spray for another 2-3 weeks.

Re: AZ41 - multi-purpose spray
 

Thanks again Patty.

It is not the same Richard, and never will be! I hope you did not fell asleep in your Biochemistry class, :) Lignosulfonates IS NOT Melaleuca Oil and WILL NOT WORK the same way as Melaleuca oil! You are throwing your money for nothing. Yes, even if it will cost $0.01, you will still be throwing away a penny for nothing.

Last time I checked, the wholesale price of organically extracted Melaleuca oil is $70 per quart. There are cheaper Melaleuca oil, about $40/quart which are extracted using man-made solvents and they don't qualify for organic growing according to OMRI. Residual synthetic solvents can be very bad for your health, so we avoid it like the plague.

Our manufacturing plant is USDA Certified organic, from plant materials to processing to the final product. We don't use any synthetic solvents and all of our oils are extracted using physical processes. We are being audited by Texas Department of Agriculture to make sure we are 100% compliant with the USDA Organically approved methods, and our production facilities are closely monitored by the USDA, Oregon Tilth, and the International Aloe Science Council.

Re: AZ41 - multi-purpose spray
 

I think Richard may be unto something here when he clarifies it for us. I know for sure that 100% organic certified ingredients, from processing to final formulation is going to cost an arm and a leg for us, but if it makes the product very safe and work effectively, the final cost is minimal compared to benefits.

Imagine, no need to spray for canker on your citruses, yes, it works well with canker if you follow the spray program early on, right after petal fall. Farmers in the Philippines are able to produce canker-free fruits. Perhaps Florida should try this on their citruses.

Then there is no need to apply nematicides, insecticides and fungicides. How many toxic products have you eliminated? And most of all, your health is priceless, especially to free the end user from being exposed to synthetic and toxic chemicals.

Re: AZ41 - multi-purpose spray
 

hatfam,

unfortunately, it doesn't repel mosquitoes but will kill them on contact. Also if you spray on a pond, it will cause the mosquitoes to sink, because it breaks the surface tension of water. So, as they lay eggs on the water surface, the mosquitoes will literally sink and drown. But after being diluted with the pond water, the surface tension returns. So the effect is only temporary for mosquitoes but could cause significant damage to their population. I wouldn't count on AZ41 to control your mosquitoes, but you can try. You would still need a natural repellant.

One of the ways we use to kill a lot of mosquitoes is to mix 1 part lemon-scented dish washing soap to ten parts water and then place the mixture on plenty of shallow dishes or pans by the porch. The mosquitoes are somehow attracted to it, and they drown in it. I know there is a specific brand of dish washing soap that works the best, can't recall at the moment.

Thanks Harvey!

We may be going to run out of stock this week! All of our inventory that is about to arrive have already been committed to 5 major raisin grape growers in Caruthers. That's about 6,000 bottles in all. Needed to sell total of 18,000 bottles in our first year to break even.

The late season rains and the warming trend spells panic to powdery mildews on grapes when it is flowering, that's why the orders suddenly surged! Usually, they order by first week of May. Last year, the other grape farmers have seen the very clean grape farms, free from powdery mildew from those farmers that applied AZ41.

Re: AZ41 - multi-purpose spray
 

Yes, And I don't have powdery mildew for the first time in years since I've grown my Fuji apples since I used the AZ41.
Thank you Joe for a wonderful and very promising product.
I used to have a very acute case of powdery mildew year after year.

BTW, I just got back today from a family vacation in Maui and the first thing I inspected were my bananas and my new grafts and any aphids or powdery mildew. None so far and the new buds of my citrus are so luscious and so many all healthy looking because there were no bugs that eat them. I attribute this to AZ41.

Re: AZ41 - multi-purpose spray
 

All I know is I can't wait to see how well it does this year on my garden and fruit crops!!!! All I am asking is to eat a plum without a worm in it.....but I do see inprovements on my plants in my basement already....Growing good & healthy....

Re: AZ41 - multi-purpose spray
 

Yeah! I am contemplating a good harvest this year.
I've never seen such good growing habits of my plants. And look at those blossoms coming out!
And my tomatoes are growing so perfectly. Without those silly whiteflies!

Re: AZ41 - multi-purpose spray
 

I used it on my plum trees , and there is so many blossoms. This is the first year they looked so good . Usually they just fall off right away . I can't wait
to see what happens.:goteam:

Re: AZ41 - multi-purpose spray
 

I just posted this to another forum- the citrus foorum.

"I just came back from a family vacation. The first thing I checked was my plants. I am surprised how wonderful they look. My citrus plants have never looked so good specially Joe's clemenule and my Washington navel. Both of them are in full bloom of new buds. Not a single deformity due to aphids. No sign of aphids or other insects. My papaya, tomatoes and Fuji apples which in the past have full of aphids white flies and powdery mildew are the same way. There are No signs of bugs in them.

In the past I struggled every year with aphids, powdery mildew and white flies. I used every product in the book but no dice. None of them works.
NO MORE.
I attribute all of this to AZ41.
I used all kinds of insecticides before but none came up close as effective as AZ41.
I think this product will be as famous as barbie doll.
So watch out Joe.
You will be inundated with orders once they found out how effective your product is.
So, please save me some.

Benny "

Re: AZ41 - multi-purpose spray
 

Thanks Benny!

Our major market are the commercial crop growers. We sold out on our stock for the commercial growers and it will be one week before the next batch will be finished processing. Our recent orders of 6,000 big bottles just went to 5 farmers and we have to "borrow" from them to fill some of our online orders while waiting for the next batch.

I ran out of small bottles last night. Will make more tonight. We will be buying automatic bottling machine soon. Our online sales to the hobbyists have not built up that much yet, considering that we just started a few weeks ago, while marketing and testing at farmers fields are four years ahead.

Re: AZ41 - multi-purpose spray
 

Well, I need two small bottles Joe. Let me know when and where to do so. Thanks!

Re: AZ41 - multi-purpose spray
 

Me to Joe Please save me two small bottles I would like to get them before you run out again. and thanks Paula

Re: AZ41 - multi-purpose spray
 

I have been struggling with my pineapples for some time, neem and dishsoap seem to kill on contact but they do nothing for the soil and roots. It has to be applied every 2-3 days to have any effect, and it is burdensome because I can't use my tap water (salt/chlorine).

I would like to try this product, but nothing is listed on the website?

Re: AZ41 - multi-purpose spray
 

We sold out a week ago, we didn't anticipate the sudden demand of raisin farmers in Caruthers and so ran out of products for the hobbyists. Our next batch is coming within 12 days (and even then, most of it is committed or reserved to just 5 big growers ordering 6,000 big bottles), and hopefully we can open the online stores again. If you need to try them urgently, you can PM me and I can rebottle manually for you from my own personal stock, or wait within two weeks for the stores to open. I don't have anything available for the big bottle orders at the moment, only the 8-oz bottles.

Re: AZ41 - multi-purpose spray
 

I missed where to buy this and don't want to go through the 8 pages to find it. Does anyone have the link on-hand? Thanks!
