Do you have to spray it? or can you mix with water and water the (very large) houseplant with it?

you can sprinkle some pellets on soil and then water or dilute pellets in water, then pour

I have only used it as a spray. I have no idea if you can use it as you want to do. I would suggest you contact the manufacturer.

You should be able to mix it and use it on houseplants. Again, this stuff does NOT smell good at all so if you are using this indoots be warned.

As far as I know Orthene is a systemic, foliar spray. My instructions say to mix 2/3 of a teaspoon for each gallon of water and spray the plant. That is the mix that I use to spray my orchids, very early in the morning or late afternoon. I understand that it should be use outdoors only. You may want to check the manufacturer's site.

Yes, you will need to transplant it to a larger pot (I used a 5 gallon bucket with lots of holes drilled in it). But wait a few weeks before you do; the shipping process is stressful on the plant and so is re-potting, so give it some time to recover. Also, DON'T OVER WATER! I made this mistake, thinking I was pampering it; I nearly killed it. Never soak the soil fully just get it all evenly damp, let the soil dry out almost completely before you water again.

I just got the herbicide yesterday, & I'm reading the directions now. It clearly states to NOT mix oil & water as it apparently affects the efficacy. So, I suppose, you need to choose using one or the other.

You can, but you must keep it moist, spray it with distilled water, reverse osmosis water, or collected rain water, make sure you collect the water from a clean source and not under a synthetic source. I hope this satisfies your answer. Also to add keep the container a quarter to have full at all times, and don't keep the plant in full sun, if you do the plant will burn and dry along with the soil.

you can directly attach to the garden hose and spray. it comes with an attachment for no-pre-mixing sparying.

On the bottle under directions it says that you can spray directly on the plant.Best wishes, Jeannie Lucas

You mix it with water before spraying. Please see the instruction. After applying it to ant mounds, do not spray water on them again. Hope this would help.

You have to mix this product first. It can be harmful to some plants at too high of a concentration.

sprinkling on the surface wont do much. spores need to make contact with root tips. Suggestion: depending on the plant and how delicate it is to disruption i would try to dig around its root perimeter, incorporate it into the soil (the depth should match about the height of the plant), then replace soil without packing too hard and water. Or if its in a pot, transplant it into a bigger pot and shake out roots before transfer. Mix it into the new soil and the symbiosis should take hold pretty quickly. Approx 1 week

I only know this product and it's fabulous. But I understand....it gets painful to spray an decent sized area with this method. You could empty it into a spray tank and use it that way. I wouldn't mix anything with it. That's the only recommendation I have.

I'd say the best way is to use one of these sprayers http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_1?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords;=sprayerBottle has directions of how to mix and these sprayers allow wide or spot spraying and greater control.

From what I understand, this cannot be mixed with water. It's method of action depends on it being dry. Once wet, it loses it's ability to work as it is intended.

Jay, I forgot to answer the dosage question. I tried to spray enough to cover as much of the plant as possible. Bill

We used a garden sprayer and walked the yard spraying surface. Do be careful on breezey days and do not gt too close to plants you want to keep. This product does work!

It is really easy to mix. I put the measured amount in a watering can and add the water. I try to avoid getting any on the leaves as it can leave a white residue on them. I use it last year when i thought all hope was lost. No more brown spotted bottoms. I started earlier this year and I have seen no spots.
