Hose/Ortho Sprayer

Pour undiluted Growth & Rescue into the hose attachment and set the sprayer to 8 or 6 oz depending on the sprayer. For every application after the first one, set to 4 oz or whichever is next lowest on your brand of sprayer.

Pour for Rescue

Fighting disease, bugs, spots, or just have a really sad plant? This calls for Growth & Rescue straight from the bottle. Pouring it a little away from the base of most plants will do the trick.

please consult a gardening group, video, or another website to identify the specific issue with your plants. wrigglebrew growth & rescue is not a pesticide according to the standards set by the epa.

Gnats

If regular use of does not get rid of the gnats, spray the soil directly with undiluted Growth & Rescue until slightly damp.

example: for a 6" potted plant, two sprays is usually enough.

Trees

Pour undiluted G&R about a foot away from the trunk of the tree, in a circle around it.

The bigger the tree, the more you will use. For smaller, younger trees 1 cup will be sufficient.

Visible Bugs

Use undiluted G&R to spray the foliage of the plant and pour a little (~1 tbsp) at the base of the plant for best results.

Other Issues

Pouring at the base of your plant is usually the best way to treat plant issues. If you have any questions feel free to ask us directly!
