[N-Ext] FloraGreene 4-0-2 - 5 Gallon

4-0-2 FloraGreene™ Fertilizer is formulated to be a complete product for all varieties of landscape plants, ornamentals, tropicals, shrubs, and trees. 

4-0-2 FloraGreene™ will absorb through leaf, stem, and cambium tissue and be distributed to the roots through the circulatory systems of plants, ornamentals, shrubs, and trees. While soil application is acceptable, it is formulated for foliar application.

Application rates of 4-0-2 are very low, these are suggested application rates based on use. 

• Healthy Trees: Apply at a rate of ½ ounce per caliper inch of the diameter at shoulder height. Dilute with water at a rate of 6 ounces per gallon. Spray the trunk of the tree up to a height of 6 feet or to the first fork. Apply two times per year in the spring and fall. 
  
  
• Sick or Diseased Trees: Apply at a rate of 1 ounce per caliper inch of diameter at should height. Dilute at a rate of 6 ounces per gallon of water. Spray the trunk of the tree up to the height of 6 feet or to the first fork. Apply every 30 days as needed.

• Plants and Ornamentals: Apply at a rate of 6 ounces per 1,000 sq ft of bedding material. Dilute at a rate of 6 ounces per gallon of water; apply as a mist to foliage or as a soil drench at the base of the plant. Avoid direct contact with flower blooms to prevent staining. 
  
  
• Palms: Apply at a rate of 1 ounce per caliper inch of diameter at shoulder height. Dilute at a rate of 6 ounces per gallon of water. Apply as a soil drench at the base of the palm.

As you can see, application rates vary by tree size and scenario. 

This product is shipped in 2 - 2.5-gallon jugs.

1 gallon = 128 oz

2.5 gallons = 320 oz

5 gallons = 640 oz

Here is how much product you’ll use assuming a 6 oz/1,000 sq ft rate for plants and ornamentals (or 6” diameter sick tree or palm or 12” diameter healthy tree).     

For five 6” (diameter) diseased trees, you will get 21 total applications: 

6 oz/1,000 sq ft x 5 = 30 oz

640 oz/30 oz = 21 total applications
