Just spent the entire weekend applying a granular systemic to the bed section by section. Had a top dressing rock layer on top of soil and had to remove all so that I could sprinkle and work the granules into the soil. Am double thinking the use of the systemic in granule form as I would hate to have to remove the rock dressing every time I need to work the systemic into the soil (which can be every 8-10 weeks if the mealy/aphid infestation persists.
Anybody know of a systemic that can be diluted with water and applied that way?
