How to Replace Toxic Chemicals in the Garden

image

Many of you have been asking me how to use Basic H in the garden so I got this list from another Shaklee Distributor and I have not tried these tips yet but I am going to start this week especially with my tomatoes.  I wanted to share these with you because I know that you hate using chemicals around the house and want a natural cheap way to replace chemicals in the garden.

 

Gardening tips:

 

  • For Tomatoes: 3oz of basic H w/ 1oz of Liguid-lea and 5 gallons of water - apply after planting

  • Trickler Systems: Flowers: 100 gallon systems - 18 oz of Basic H w/4oz of Ligui-lea, mix w/ water - Apply twice a week

image

  • Spray Formula: Flowers: Mix ½ oz of Basic H with 1oz of Liqui - lea and 3 gallons of water. Spray twice a week

  • Apple Scab: 1 quart Basic H - 100 gallons of water. Spray apples as you would lime sulphur. Spray at pre - blossom and at petal fall, then every 15 days, for the best results.

  • Orange Groves: To clean irrigation lines: 2 7/8 gallons Basic H to 90,000 gallons of water

  • Lawn Care: To increase water absorption 200%!! Buy an Ortho bottle. Fill this w/ Basic H and hook to your hose. Continually spray your yard, don't let it soak. Just go along your grass until it is gone. Fill again if it is necessary. Do this 4-5 times per year, beginning in April, making sure to also do it late in the summer

  • Grubs: 1 ½ quart Basic H - ½ pint basic G - 10-12 - gallons of water. Spray every 100 ft Use Ortho bottle or injector

  • Dandelions: 100 sq ft - Use Ortho Spryer or hose w/ valve sytem - 2 quarts of Basic H - 1 bottle of Liqui-lea - ½ pint Basic G - Should be used with some form of liquid fertilizer. Apply twice a year

  • Weeds: pull a bucket per day - a sick lawn supports weeds - a healthy lawn does not support weeds.

  • Trees:

    • nursery stock, seedlings, or seed beds: Mix 1oz of Basic H with gallon of water. Spray on whole seedling and around entire trunk. Apply every 10 days.
