One of the neat things about being Senior Editor here is that people send me neat products to review. Well I'm really excited because Miiko from Berrysong sent me a box of some of their organic cleaners and plant fertilizer. Today we're cleaning out and underneath and behind our washer, dryer, and refrigerator and so we should really get a chance to put their Cleaner & Degreaser to the test. Of course I'm really excited about the Plant Bio-Wash 1227 too. Miiko sent me an awesome story with pictures of a guy's orange grove and oranges compared to his neighbors. Jim Little, a California orange grove grower, took these pictures shortly after the recent California freeze that destroyed most of the California crops.  This photo shows his neighbor's grove across the highway from Jim's
grove.
His neighbor had not washed his trees with the 1st Enviro product. That poor grower lost most of his crop, suffering economic loss.  This photo shows Jim's trees that he had washed with 1st Enviro's Plant Wash product. They were not damaged by the frost. His crop was saved. Here's more from Jim....
 The green orange was grown by Jim's neighbor
who did not spray his trees with 1st Enviro's Plant Wash. His oranges
require coloring with artificial dye in order to make them marketable. The
orange orange came from Jim's grove. Jim sprayed his trees with 1st Enviro's
Plant Wash. Jim's oranges are naturally orange, thus requiring no toxic dyes to
make them marketable.
 This photo shows the inside of each.
He also sent a lab report (Brix test) that measures the sugar content of fruit and vegetables. The sugar content is important to growers.It (1) indicates the amount of
nutrition in the product and (2) determines the marketability of the product.
Customers prefer sweet, nutritious fruits and vegetables.
Jim's orange contained approximately 20% more sugar content than the
untreated oranges.
Jim believes that this new discovery is of significant importance to fruit
and vegetable growers and to the people who consume those products. |
