Have you ever tried this product?
Comments (2)'Psychic gift' told me Dynogen was the topic of this post... wierd. I bought a can years ago, then asked about it in these forums, and was told that the growth spurts it promotes are a great stress to plants, generally speaking. It's made with a powerful hormone which, when put on flower buds for instance, makes the flowers grow much larger than they normally would and is used by showers for awesome blossoms. That means that if you do use it, you need to be extra sure you're feeding based on the plants increased needs, even then they may be stressed to the point (after the growth hormone wears off) that they have a harder time than they normally would protecting themselves againsed pests/diseases. I did use it back when, saw no noticable difference. I did use it in 2002 on 3 Roses (growing tips and/or buds) and noticed only one difference, one HT shot up one very huge and wildly thorned cane, but not a basal cane, I would have wanted that too much... I did use it in 2003 on more Roses, hoping for another huge cane, saw no difference even though I sprayed more on than ever before. Not giving up on it, maybe I need different test subjects... but I wouldn't buy it again, I see better results with kelp and alfalfa and the like....See MoreWhat new products have you tried.......
Comments (5)Sally Hansen Hand creme in the orange tube is for reducing age spots and aged hands. I don't use it for that purpose. I put it on my feet and heels and it gets rids of the roughness and prickly dead skin after a few uses. Before using this, I was constantly scrapping the dead skin off with that PED thing followed by the sanding paper to smooth the dead skin. Not anymore. This stuff is a keeper. I have to get another tube....See MoreTried a phosphate booster for the first time...wow!

Comments (24)The Ladylux Plus looks like the the shape of the Moen Neva. I think there are four different shapes of Ladylux faucets, all with the same handle (and maybe also the slinky spring around the hose), so be sure to include the keyword "Plus". The KWC Systema line has one model that looks like this too. At http://www.kwcamerica.com click on Products, then on Systema, then look at the thumbnails at the bottom of the page. Knowing what I know about the various manufacturers, for this shape I would get a Grohe product or a KWC product instead of a Moen product. With this shape, when I pull the hose out I know I'll put some amount of mechanical stress on the base. A Moen is far more likely to become wobbly after a time. A Grohe is far more likely to remain firmly anchored. A KWC too. As far as parts in the guts go, or tightening up a loose faucet body, Moen, Price Pfister, Delta and even most Kohlers are all in one category in my mind. The first three companies will send you replacement faucets with little hassle and without asking for much money (or none at all). But who wants a wobbly faucet that eventually leads to a free replacement? For that matter, who cares if you get parts for free? (Dire Straits could sing new lyrics about "parts for free" and it still wouldn't motivate me.) I don't. I want a trouble-free faucet, at a fair price, or maybe a parts-free faucet at a low price if I intend to get to know the faucet very very well. The shape is good; I would just want to feel reassured that the body tube will remain one-piece with the body base, and that the base+nut will be firm too. I don't feel reassured by Moen for this (moveable or separable faucet body parts) because of real life experience seen in kitchens of family members. For a unibody bathroom faucet, Moen seems OK. Grohe and KWC are simply high quality. There are a dozen more manufacturers in this category. As rococogurl mentioned, you have to triple check everything. I've sent a hundred emails asking for information (about features), that they could have posted on the web but didn't. I've emailed all those named above, and many others. (Grohe, KWC, Kohler, Moen, Delta, Price Pfister and more). Hth...See More- 6 years ago
