Re: Humates
i had my suspicions it may be a secret some of the heavy hitters used, and
wasn't going to comment until i had seen for myself any affects.
a totally different product i know but I will definately have to use ironite
as i am trialling a few hundred geraniums in the greenhouse with it. the
ones with are about a week ahead of the others in development and they have
only been potted three weeks (with half the recommended level of product may
i add!). I just hope the AG's perform as well.
Regards
Chris
PS, alun if you are interested in the humate stuff let me know and i'll give
you details for the supplier.
