I just purchased some of this Dunkels...sounds like a great augmentation to the Agro-K, questions are how much and how frequent for you experienced users out there. What have you noticed from it......Sounds like great stuff thats going into the tomatoe patch too.

On AG's others will have to answer, but for tomato plants I can help. I recommend using it once a month, but others have used it every 2 to 3 weeks with great results. Use it in the evening after the sun has gone down. Spray the top and underside of the leaves (if you get it on the stems or fruit it won't hurt anything) until it drips off(about 1 to 2 ounces of spray per plant.) I use it every 3-4 weeks on my mater plants and they are stout, disease free, dark green, and other than a few aphids pest free. You can see pics of my garden in my diary I use Dunkel's on all of it.

Rog, do site search for Dunkels, it will bring up the link to a site that gives a description of the product. Was originally formulated for tomatoes, I think. Some folks having good results on AG's. Hope this helps. Peace, Wayne

RogNC, I was impressed by the contents on this site...Since I run with the Organics/Agro-K program and do fish and seaweed the same nite I added this to the program once a month with all the stuff Ive been reading.

"Fulvic Acid is an important supplement because it boosts nutrient absorption. The most plant-active of all the humic acid compounds, this plant growth stimulator readily increases your plants' metabolism and nutrient intake.
Organic Kelp Extract will help ensure that your plants receive more of the 80 or more necessary nutrients missing from many off-the-shelf fertilizers. Rich with natural hormones, minerals and other micro-elements, kelp is an excellent source of nutrition for your plants.
Compound Amino Acid Powder is made from natural protein. It will rapidly correct nutrient deficiencies, improve fruit set, help plants endure environmental stress and fend off diseases.
Magnesium is critical for production of chlorophyll and for fruit development. It helps strengthen cell walls and improves a plant’s intake of nitrogen, phosphorus, and sulfur. Plants rarely show signs of deficiency until it becomes severe. Tomato, pepper, eggplant, and potato plants need high doses of magnesium for optimum growth.
Sulfate (Sulfur) is a key element for plant growth. It is critical for production of vitamins, amino acids (therefore protein), and enzymes. Very effective as a disease control against powdery mildew, certain rusts, leaf blights and fruit rots, it also is effective in the control of spider mites, psyllids and thrips which can do so much damage to your plants.".....well see, didnt burn my plants
