Any experience with DynaGro Pro-Tekt ?
Comments (2)I think I responded to a question like this lately. I used it as an additive to Banner Maxx, so was wearing a respirator anyway. It seemed to extend the Banner Maxx benefit a bit, but it was the Banner Maxx that did the job. There's no natural magic bullet. That's why humans invented chemical fungicides. If something like non-fat milk or potassium silicate worked reliably, no one would use fungicides. I wouldn't spray anything except plain water without a respirator.

Comments (2)Ficus B has SOO much cuticular wax that it wouldn't be of any notable benefit. The best pathway by which nutrients might enter the plant is via the roots.

Getting back to roots being the best pathway - if you ever see a benefit from a foliar application of nutrients for containerized plants, consider it an excellent indication there is something wrong with your basic nutritional supplementation program. There is no other reason why it would be a benefit. Also foliar applications of fertilizers might mask but not cure deficiencies of immobile nutrients.

Comments (5)The most efficient pathway into the plant (in 99% of plants you're likely to be growing) is via the root system. As Pan noted, foliar feeding is rather inefficient and results uninspiring. If you DO see good results from foliar feeding, it's reason enough to suspect there is something very wrong with your more traditional method of fertilizing that utilizes roots as the primary pathway into the plant.

Comments (2)That's good to know, thanks. I already use the foliagePro and think I will order the ProTekt. I never knew silicon could be so beneficial....See Morercharles_gw (Canada)
