Bob,

One thing you might note in your docs - Bill Argo told me that the
fertilizers were designed to be used at 125 ppm N at every watering.

FWIW, I have been using it that way for 18 months now, and am very
pleased.

The Canadian broker is AMA Plastics in Kingsville, ON.
1-800-338-1136.
The man I talked to (Bill) said that several societies have bought a
bag. They only sold it in 25 lb bags when we bought it for the
society last year. I don't know if they sell it in smaller
quantities
yet.

The data sheet that comes with it is not complete. I have a
complete
data sheet on our club website at
http://los.lon.imag.net/MiscFile.asp

The data was updated from articles in Orchids and from personal
communications with Jan Szyren -Greenhouse Coordinator: Plant
Biology
Teaching Greenhouses and University Orchid Collection -Michigan
State
University

I also added a table of the various amounts of fertilizer to add to
an
IMPERIAL gallon to get the ppm values since the original was only in
U.S. gallons. Finally, I added teaspoons of fertilizer values since
the original only came with numbers for ounces and grams of
fertilizer
since all of our members had access to a teaspoon but most of them
did
not have access to anything that would measure ounces or grams.

Good luck.
