Stop Citrus Greening and other plant pest problems without poisoning pets, plants, people, the environment, or honey bees!
This is promising. We are going to work with Oak leaf mold as well spread around the root zone of citrus trees. If you are not killing your soil with pesticides and petroleum based acidulated fertilizers they will be consumed as part of the soil adding much needed organic matter to our sand in a matter of weeks. We certainly have enough Oak leaves!
We have had great results raising the micro nutrient levels of Bo, Mn, Mo, Cu, Fe, and Zn to nearly excess levels in the root zone and spraying with Thyme Guard and Stimulagro Gold. The Oak leaves would also be rich in minerals.
THYME GUARD is a 100% biodegradable broad spectrum contact and systemic liquid organic bactericide, fungicide, and insecticide for use in all crops, food, and nonfood. It is a new generation of essential oil extracted from thyme Its molecular structure makes it efficient, striking the cellular membrane of bacterium, fungus, and virus without generating resistance. THYME GUARD has a residual effect up to 20 days. THYME GUARD has proven its high efficacy against diseases like Botrytis, Fusarium, Powdery Mildew, Downy Mildew, Citrus Canker, Citrus Greening-HLB, Fire Blight, and many others. Thyme Guard also has insecticidal effects on sucking insects like, psyllids, spider mites, scales, and whitefly. You can eat the fruit the same day, it does not change the flavor and is not toxic to bees, birds, or people.
STIMULAGRO GOLD is made from the organic concentrated water-soluble liquid extract from cold water seaweed (Ascophyllum Nodosum) and a biological amendment containing soil enhancing bacteria (Bacillus and Lactobacillus). STIMULAGRO GOLD is a cold water high concentration seaweed extract from the st Lawrence river.
Using both together is the best insect and disease prevention I have ever used. Both these products are manufactured right here in Florida. Organic by Design will have both products available in quart containers.
Scientists in Florida have confirmed what some citrus growers suspected for years -- that oak trees could inhibit citrus greening disease, which has devastated the industry.
