  • talking is easy we dont want see you talking please demonstrate us and show us by performance !!!

  • OMG...the description already states what type of oil is used, thats the only thing that is of any importance in the vid.....lol expert village.

  • citrus oil is organic and something you can make at home. very effective.

  • Yes and no. It's oil. I know penzoil and gastrol both make a version. It's patroleum based and like erezamn1 said you absolutely do not use is after bud break. If you get it on buds about to break or just broken it will either kill or deform the growth. In other words Dormant. It is the same idea as using insect soap. You are smothering the buggers.

  • Dormant oil you use in order to enhance bud breaking in deciduous fruit trees like apple and peach. You apply it in the dormant season not in full foliage

  • is it organic???
