I had to remove 4 rhodedendrons from my garden last year that tested positive for root rot. Would this be the correct product to use to treat the remaining plants as well as those plants I plan to plant this Spring? If so, when/how do I start - what quantity and what is the right timing? I am in Wisconsin. It is 40 today but will be in the teens next week, so still definitely winter here! I had to remove 4 rhodedendrons from my garden last year that tested positive for root rot.

I used this product on a large tree in my front yard and it worked well to take care of the root rot "phytophthora". I went to an internet site called JustAnswer.com to find what to use for this large tree. A tree doctor told to use this product and carpenter ant killer, which I did and the tree finally came back. If the manufacture has a phone number I would call them and see if they can answer your question. If you use the internet site that I used they will charge you fee for their service, but I believe they have good experts that can answer your question. Hope this helps..

I don't know. I bought it to use on apple trees, but I have not used it yet.

You should spray the trees several times when dormant to prevent the leaf curl problem. I don't think that anything would work after the leafs are infected.

bonide is essentially calicium ....yes you can use on all of your garden. if you are having problems with blossom end rot it is a must have. i use it at least once every two weeks on my garden when i see the first end rot . i make sure that it doesnt come back. saturating the soil with calicium is the best way to prevent any further damage to your garden. calicium gets deleted thru seasons growth the vegetables love calicium so keeping a bottle of this around is very beneficial.all vegetables love their calicium

I could tell you that you should be identifying the exact weeds you want to control and keeping track of your local weather and soil temperatures etc. but....The stuff is pretty effective for a good 4 months and controls some weeds out to 6 months. I would just make sure I put it out at least 2 weeks before typical germination of the weeds you are trying to control, and even if you end up putting it out 2 months early, it is still going to be pretty effective. You could do 50% (max annual rate) for Summer weeds and again for winter weeds later in the year.

I use this early in the year when it is too cold for liquid sprays. It has been effective for me and I've been able to have my bulbs and hostas grow. Our deer population has exploded and without some treatment, the flowers and plants are totally munched down. I use it on low growing items. I'm not sure how it would work once plants are taller and shrubs; I switch to a spray called Deer Out. The granules seem to work for weeks and after rains. It is easy to apply and minimal odor. As another reviewer commented, nothing is really full proof against hungry deer, but this has been a very effective product for me. I use this early in the year when it is too cold for liquid sprays.

Allison, contact Joel immediately. Use only distilled water, not spring water, not tap water and water it in a saucer. Fill it up about 1/3 of the way. That being said, did you check your email? Joel sent a detailed email before our plant arrived. I contacted him a few times and he was extremely helpful and fast to respond. Here's his email address: JoelsCarnivorousPlants - Amazon Marketplace lk5mjrd052j6cyv@marketplace.amazon.com I cut and pasted his directions in the initial email below: I will be shipping your order to you Saturday. Look for it to arrive in your mail beginning this Monday. If you have cold weather forecast for the next few days please be careful to take your order indoors soon after it arrives and not to leave it in a mailbox outside overnight if you receive your mail in a receptacle that is outside so that your plant will not be damaged/killed by frost. If your plants are damaged by frost anyways in spite of my best efforts at timing the shipping for your order please let me know asap. If it is below freezing where you are at your order may come with a heat pack. The heat pack is a white bag with red line on it. This heat pack is not part of the potting soil. Please be careful to NOT mix it in with your moss that your plant arrives with. If you are purchasing this as a gift it will be important to pot it up right after it arrives rather than leaving it in the box it came in for a while. If you purchased more than one plant they may be wrapped together. If you have any problems with your plant(s) or its shipping please feel free to contact me. I'm here to help. If you like what you see when your order arrives you can see more Carnivorous Plants that I have for sale here.--&gt;

I would go with 2. Depending on what you are growing as to what color temperature. I had the best results using one cool white and one warm white and rotating the plants around every 3 - 4 days. Great product for the price!!

I've had great success using it in early spring. This is the BEST product ever for keeping our crape myrtles free of crape myrtle aphids. Have not had to deal with that problem since I started using the Bayer Advanced product. Best to know the application AMOUNTS you'll need for the number and size of your plants. I had to buy more the first time I used it.

I've gotten in to a running dialogue with Bonide on what plants its safe to use on. They say its safe for all plants. Thing is, I used it on my Epiphyllums and several weaks later they did not look well at all. They are slowly coming back. I did see leaf drop and leaf discoloration on other plants after using it. I can say there are no bugs. I hate dealing with scale which is the reason I decided to give it a try.

when winter comes you are to cut it down to six ins. then put mulch around it. I have not planted it yet. I have been sick. So there for I still have it in the house. Its doing ok, but if you still have warme weather plant it.

I have used this product on all my first year bare root trees. I also use them on trees that are up to 5, 6 even 7 years old.

Well directions say it has to happen during germination ... Which I assume to be spring. I'd test it on a small area and see the results. It did not seem to kill crabgrass on the spot. Kind of seemed to help the other parts of my lawn from the crabgrass invasion so to speak.

When you plant you write down the day. If its or first grow. Those work but suck. Nitro lock gaurunteed in soil. Roots organic is what I used and general hydroponics. They all have a schedule to use as a GUIDE.! Happy trails

It is best to use on your plants as soon as you see a bug harboring around your plant. If you don't use right-away and the soil becomes infested, you may not be able to reserve your plant. It only takes a little.

You mix 2-3 tablespoons per gallon of water and pour on the ground around the base of the plant. I wouldn't use a whole gallon around just one plant. Prorate it based on how much water you would normally give the plant that day. If your plants show signs of stress, as in the leaves turning yellow, wait a week and use it again. I did this for 4 weeks in a row, and when my plants looked healthy again I cut back to once a month or more. I also had my dirt tested and found that it was nitrogen dificient, so this was perfect for me. If your plants aren't healthy, you should always have your dirt tested, since too much of a good thing is bad as well. Any local nursery should be able to test it for you.

i did not apply until i seen the blossam rot it seems to halt the progress on the larger tomatoes but did not on some smaller tomatoes like (San Marzano) the problem is apparently due to certain weather conditions.1 don't know if putting it advance would anything.if it did not appear is it because the conditions weather were right or did it work? this was the first in 25 years i had a problem.

As a Master Gardener, I highly recommend Preen Weed Preventer. I have used this product for over 15 years and wouldn't be able to maintain the number of gardens in my yard without it. I apply generously twice a year--before spring /summer annual weeds come up and before fall/winter annual weeds come up. But last year, I didn't read the package label carefully enough and purchased another Preen product: "Preen Lawn Broadleaf Weed Control Granules" and that is a different product altogether. It is formulated to kill weeds that are already growing and will kill your impatiens. It is also harmful to fish, once it gets into the water. So, stick with Preen Weed Preventer and you should be fine. As a Master Gardener, I highly recommend Preen Weed Preventer.
