advertised in J Parker
used by professional growers of fruit and veg as well as flowers, a foliar feed that stimulates strong, healthy growth whilst controlling pests, even spider mite and aphids can be effectively controlled
can it be that easy?
I already use seaweed  and comfrey spray, is that the same?

Not yet.

We will await the results of your trial with interest though.

I can't make up my mind whether to go for it, I usually use seaweed feed, we get good results so ?

I am a big fan of seaweed too, as a foliar feed etc. What is in this stuff, does it say what it's based on?
If it's not pouring with rain, I'm either in the garden or at the lottie! Probably still there in the rain as well TBH....🥴

Couldn't help myself, just found their website. Active ingredients are:

1.2.1 Common name: Urea, Di amide of carbonic acid

Urea is in urine isn't it!?
Interesting they claim an insecticidal use as well.

urea is a soluble source of nitrogen. It has the highest proportion of nitrogen of any fertiliser apart from ammonia, so it's good for a quick fix. If you use it a lot, it will increase the acididty of the soil markedly

But if there is more P than Pee in the 'Invigorator', it won't be too spectacular??

Love Seaweed - but have never proved its use.

I'm trying it too. Recommended by a friend who runs a nursery. He said to suppress whitefly spray at three day intervals - apparently this interrupts their breeding cycle.

Will report in due course.....
