I use 1 tspn and a little dishwashing soap in a 1 qt spray bottle, I spray my plants every 7-14 days.

I haven't used it for that purpose. It could really screw up the soil. But my PM problem started when I fertilized the lawn. This year I did not fertilize the lawn and my PM problem is greatly reduced!

I use it around hosta and other bushes. I used it near my impatients, but I did not appy Preen directly over the flowers or any flowers, so I don't know what to say about your concern.

Yes, I have and it worked great. I would recommend using a hgher concentration than on the bottle-- 3 tbls per gallon, not 2. Also, be sure to wet tops and undersides of leaves and you will probably have to reapply to make sure they stay controlled. Lots of luck-- squash bugs are tough to eradicate.

it's pretty much use as needed.. generally speaking.. follow the directions on the bottle.. check your local nursery for what to do when your plants have the blight..

NO, and that is why I purchased it. Total fail. Worthless as far as I can tell. Still have the fungus gnats in a houseplant. My suggestion is to try something else.

Yes I have. This produce is the best. I also use it in my garden and i don't have anything eat on my plants any more. I told all my neighbors cause we have skunks bad here and yes it keeps them away. I am speaking for my neighbors as well. You need to try it. Love it here in West Virginia

There are other bacterial agents that are intended for soil treatment. Google it. Not this one. If you spray the plants from the beginning the fungus will have hard time establishing on the leaf.

I have the same situation with a flower garden surrounding my patio and have used the product for several years running with no harm done whatsoever! I believe the company addresses this very issue on their website. I just love this product and I know you will too!!! That being said, I wait until the garden needs watering and then I use the product exactly as directed. After I'm through I do water the garden to dilute the product but I really don't think it's necessary.

You must have used it awfully heavily; I have not had a problem with it killing anything. I do have impatiens in pots on the patio, so they don't get it. Maybe they are really sensitive to it? We compost our own stuff from horses, goats, stall straw, weeds, etc., so there are a ton of weed seeds and I use the Preen rather heavily. I have not had a problem with anything dying from it.

Yes, I have used Blue Magic in two different waterbeds over the last 20 or more years, and this product works well. Use it at least once a year, and you should have no problems with mildew. I find it is a good idea to have a dedicated hose for filling and/or draining the waterbed, I hope this is helpful.

Don't know. I use it on zinnias after the first 2 sets of leaves come up. Helps with powdery mildew.

I had one plant with mealy bugs that I used this on and it doesn't have them anymore, I hadn't really noticed until you asked. I was just trying to get rid of the fungus gnats.

I have only used this for mildew on blackcurrant bushes. Frankly I was not impressed and the fungus remained whilst the leaves were still on. Maybe you will have better luck. Mike D.

I use 2 ml per gallon and it knocks out powdery mildew. It's better to dip your plants if possible to get complete coverage.

Never tried it for that, I recommend Safer brand organic Sulfur spray. You spray this organic sulfur liquid on you plants during the vegetation cycle a few times, and 2 weeks after your plants start to flower. Then no more. It makes the stem and plant mold and mildew free. Just do not spray on after the flowers or fruits begin to produce, as it can then effect the flavors... And mold and mildew have a tuff time growing in sunlight or use at least a 600 watt sodium bulb if indoors. Also this is an oil based extract and I would think it would not mix well with water to apply it to plants. good luck

I bought this product to use on my basil, which had downy mildew, and my houseplant, which have an assortment of bugs and mold....I found it worked well on my lemon tree, which had mold, too, but you will need to treat it routinely. See direction on product label.

I have not had any problems with mildew, they are easy to clean. I actually use the bottom bucket for the bath toys myself.
