SEAFOOD FOR THE SOIL SEAFOOD FOR THE SOIL
I have been impressed by my cherry orchard's response to Paci c Gro's hydrolysate.
Regular feeding of the product by foliar and fertigation during the season has pro-
moted vigorous branch and root growth, increased fruit size a half to full row, made
fruit signi cantly rmer and also helped trees recover from a devastating freeze this
past winter. I have found that post-harvest feedings, which we apply up to leaf drop,
are of critical importance to improving next year's crop. One surprising thing we have
found that really excites us is that powdery mildew was
signi cantly reduced in our orchards after we started
using Pacific Gro's hydrolysate - even in highly
susceptible varieties like Sweetheart.

Liquid Shrimp & Crab - mmmm Good!
The chitin and high sh oil content are a feast for the soil,
especially for bene cial fungi. Also an excellent foliar.
