Comments by Dr. Morgan:
"Foliar fertilization with the Spray-N-Grow® Micronutrient Complex in hydroponically grown strawberry crops in a number of production systems, both NFT and media based has proven to not only greatly assist with initial plant establishment and development, but to also advance flowering and early yields as well as having a beneficial long term effect on total fruit yields and compositional quality."
