This is hands down one of the best products to have if you’re a plant enthusiast. It does it all. (Except kill pests! Just fyi) I bought it originally bc I found some rust fungus on a couple of White Knight Philos I bought as rehab plants. This fixed the issue right away. They’ve each put out 2-3 leaves since treating them n not a single rust spot. So I was obviously impressed n went to town w/ seeing what else this could do. Algae in your semi hydro pots? Make a bucket w/ the appropriate dilution rate n dunk your pots in the mixture & air dry.. it slows down the algae growth process! Before I had to clean my pots atleast once every 2 months bc of algae. It’s been 3 months n there isn’t any algae growth on any of the pots I treated. Do you have mold growing on your terracotta pots? Spray the outside of the pots or soak the pots before use & it will slow it down or kill already molding pots. Are your self watering wicks turning green after just a few days? Treat them w/ the same method as the pots. I do dilute that mixture a little bit more than the directions say to. I’m not sure if it’s necessary. I just wanted to be safe n test it out first. So far so good. No algae build up on my wicks n it’s been about 3 weeks. Before this my wicks would be green within a week! Did your plant get root rot? Chop off all of the dead roots, fill a spray bottle w/ water & add the appropriate amount to the bottle. Shake. Spray the roots down, let them air dry. Then dip the root ball in some rooting hormone &/or some mycorrhizae powder, throw it in some damp sphagnum & give it some time to heal. It will start throwing out new growth in no time. Sometimes if you don’t treat root rot after cutting off the dead parts, the plant could still have issues even after removing it from the pot & putting it in sphagnum. So this will help kill any bacteria/mold n help so your plant can heal & regrow its roots. Do you have some plant saucers that are green & sludge? No worries. Spray the saucer w/ the diluted mix, let it sit for a few, scrub w/ a brush or sponge & once it’s clean, spray the dried saucer or dunk the saucers in a bucket of the diluted mix & let it air dry. Do you have something going on w/ a couple plants that you can’t quite figure out? Maybe it’s some yellowing that isn’t due to pests, lighting, humidity, over/underwatering & you’re scratching your head confused? Spray the plants down w/ the diluted mixture 1-2x a week for 3-4 weeks. Obviously this won’t work for EVERY ailment that affects plants. But since it covers so many bases, the odds are that this could definitely fix the issue. Again, unless it’s pests or an environmental issue. You won’t know what the issue was caused by. But atleast you can stop it from spreading. My brother had an issue w/ his strawberry shake philos where the leaves were browning n turning to mush.. no root rot. Not environmental since it was only a few of them that were grouped together but in the same room, w/ the same lights/humidity/air circulation/soil/watering schedule etc. the others in the same room were thriving. He was stumped. I thought it could be some kind of virus or pest but we looked at all of the plants w/ microscopes & no pests. Plus he uses predatory bugs so it just didn’t make sense. I told him to try this stuff out.. he did just that. He chopped off all of the infected leaves & sprayed the plants down, within a couple weeks the plants were throwing new leaves & no more issues w/ the older leaves dying. We don’t know what the issue was.. but the problem was fixed! I’m not paid by this company btw. I just love this stuff n I wish I had found it sooner.
