This question was answered some time ago. Basically, it works, but
not as well as they advertise and some cultivars respond better then
others. For the home gardener or the person who only needs a small
number of plants, say, less then a 100, Rossizing will be just as
effective, but may take a bit longer.

The "10" stands for ten percent BAP = 100,000 ppm.

Spray until the leaf is wet, 3,000 to 10,000 ppm, or apply with a
Q-tip.
