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 MoreTried a phosphate booster for the first time...wow!

Comments (42)I use chlorine bleach exclusively and never had a problem. If your claims of dingy towels after use are true, you got something else going on. Percarbonate while an oxidizer, will not outperform LCB as a stain remover. My suspicion is you used too much. 4 rinses is substantial to have lingering effects. All LCB is not the same just as detergent. My question is why are your towels dingy anyway if you have been a user of percarbonate? Dingy clothes are caused by redeposition of soils not remaining in suspension during the wash process, or too low of temperature. Everybody has a preference, but LCB always has a place in the kitchen, bathroom, and laundry room. It is the gold standard for disinfection!...See MoreHave you tried this? I don’t want to be the first.
Comments (23)I've never heard of this, but wow-thats a lot of Coke! If I were to do it, I'd soak in a bucket instead. Dawn or a shampoo for oily hair rubbed into the spot should work. To deodorize clothes you can add 1/2 cup of original Pine Sol to the wash. It even says so on the bottle....See Morebpath
