| It's a new one for me but here is what I found: https://www.gardeningknowhow.c... "The dogmas of the quiet past are inadequate to the stormy present.

| Yes ! I read that, Anne.👍 I've also googled, kaolin clay, and "Surround WP". It seams like vegetable and fruit growers, would be all over this product, since it sounds like there would be no, or much of any need for, insecticides, fungicides, or disease controls.  😎😎😎 Anything i say, could be misrepresented, or wrong. |

| I have to wonder though, if it blocks the stomata, leaf pores, that carry out transpiration of the plant which is necessary. "The dogmas of the quiet past are inadequate to the stormy present.

| In the past, i've seen farm orchards that were all white. Humm ?🤔??? I wondered ??? What farmer had sprayed for, or what farmer sprayed with ??? I bet you, your dime, to my dollar, that it was kaolin. It beats me, OTHERWISE ? On one site, they showed a few pictures of orchards that had been sprayed. Trees were white. Looked just like what I've seen. 😎😎😎 Anything i say, could be misrepresented, or wrong. |
