HB-101, helpful gardening tips.
HB-101 is OMRI listed for use in organic production. Our customers have told us that hours after spraying HB-101, they noticed how happy their plants seemed. Orchid growers have also reported that soon after spraying HB-101, orchids that have never produced so much as a bud begin setting flower spikes. So, without further ado, we're going to include some handy tips for incorporating HB-101 into your gardening regime.
Germinating Seeds:
Soak seeds in HB-101 diluted to 1/1000 parts water; as follows:
BEANS - 10 seconds
ROOT VEGETABLES - one to thirty minutes
LEAFY VEGETABLES - three hours
OTHER VEGETABLES, FLOWERS, FRUITS and TREES - 12 hours
RICE and GRAINS - over 24 hours, up to one week
Flower and Vegetable Seedlings:
Spray HB-101 diluted to 1/1000 parts water directly on to seedlings once a week for three weeks.
Watering Vegetable and Flower Transplants:
Irrigate and spray 11,000 sq. ft of land with 3.38 oz HB-1-1 diluted at least 1/1000 parts once each week.
Fruit Trees:
For the six month period following harvest irrigate soil with HB-101 diluted to at least 1/1000 parts water once a month. For the six months before harvesting irrigate soil and spray foliage with 1/1000 part dilution twice a month.
Ornamental and Potted Plants:
Apply HB-101 at a dilution of 1/1000 to 1/10,000 parts water once a week throughout the year both as soil irrigation and foliar spray.
NOTES ON MEASURING HB-101:
3.5 cc of HB-101 to one gallon of water yields a dilution ration of 1/1000. (For regular use, 1/1000 is the strongest recommneded dilution.)
2.5 cc = 1/2 teaspoon. (1/2 teaspoon HB-101 to one gallon of water yields approximately 1/1,600 dilution.)
CAUTION:
Please use HB-101 as soon as possible after diluting as efficacy may diminish over time. HB-101 may be mixed with other fertilizers, but cannot be used with petrochemicals or alkaloids.
Please use HB-101 only as directed
REMEMBER: Spraying indoors? Raise your lights, or spray with the lights off!
