Well, it took 100 gallons of juice to foliar today.

I did

2.5 tsp micro5000 and spectrum
2oz each yucca and quillaja extracts
100g Albion calcium powder
100g Albion calcium with boron
180g fulvic acid
200g ferti nitro plus
1 quart photo mag
2 quarts rejuvenate
8oz pepzyme clear

This recipe will prepare them for the stretch they're about to go through. It provides sugars , enzyme cofactors , protein , peptides , amino acids , phytoalexins and chelated calcium

I put a video of how I do it on instagram , they only allow 15 seconds , so you don't get to see the whole tree getting sprayed down ...I probably spend about a minute spraying each one down.

It's under @backyardfarming , if you don't know ...

The formula I posted was for one pickle barrel...

I don't understand your question. Do you think there is a fairy that pays my farms bills? If you know of one can you introduce us?

Micro5000 , spectrum , about 100 per acre, which is 40k sq ft ...

Albion powders are under like 65 for calcium and 80 something for the one with boron added , they come in kg size...so 6.50 and 8.00 for those
Ferti nitro is 5.29 a LB , I use a half LB so about 2 dollars
PhotoMag is about 100 for 5 gallons , there are 20 quarts in a 5 gal , so each application costs $5 , similar stats for rejuvenate
Pepzyme , $100 treats 10 acres, I usually use the 1 acre dosage (12oz) there's 128 oz per gallon , so $10 in pepzyme

So under $50 per application ?

So 5 gallons of rejuvenate showed up today...102 outside and it went over the passeso in the mountains on its way to me. A few grams of spillage and the top is slightly domed but almost no air and certainly no volcano action when I opened it. I be happy.

Finally pinched the top branch on this plant and it is filling out better now.

I know people are used to ridiculous nutrient prices, but some people are really putting quality product out there that isn't dyed water.
Damn straight except when you lose 1/2 gallon of product, due to whatever, in a brand new shipment you have to wonder. At least they've smartened up and bagging the bottles in preparation for what happens :biggrin:. One day some companies will get their act together.

Wish things we're going better for us. This problem is getting old :frown:. That pic I posted from just a few days ago. Yeah that's Rejuvenate that blew up on us and just think...they're still gonna release the line even with what we're experiencing...sigh.

I don't know what to tell you. Nothing but excellent service for me, fantastic advise from Gary and not a single promise to me broken. They are as good as it gets in my book.

A picture is worth a thousand words. When we stop having problems with the products I'll let everyone know. My story is different than yours based on my EXPERIENCE and I go back with Kempf about 5 years. Service has been an issue until recently, product efficacy is not the issue. If you're talking Gary R then standup guy and if you're talking Gary S then I think he's getting a clue. Isn't As Good As It Gets a movie...meaning fantasy?

A little green to keep things real...

This brother was all into compost, layers, organics, blah blah and soon as I got him on a good foliar program he was hooked.

Got AEA?

Got AEA?

I'll keep countering...so here's what the bottle looked like when we opened up the bagged shipment...

So now they're using vented caps. Why? Because of my brother and I and the problems we're experiencing.

I wouldn't be surprised if the vented caps don't work

Cali, what kinda point could you be attempting to score by pointing out there's a movie titled after the phrase 'as good as it gets'? I guess there's some half-joke in there because I can't imagine you think the phrase is referencing the film.

Hit the plants with a foliar modification of brix mix today. Sprouted barley tea, molasses, barley malt, BioAg's TM-7 for humic acid and trace minerals, and 2-4-2 fish fertilizer. They're looking happy so far, but two days of heavy rain might be contributing more to that than the foliar.
