    Q
    Can I use Atrimmec on ficus trees, and is the product injectable?

    A

    Q
    Bark banding or soil drenching using Atrimmec Plant Growth Regulator (PGR)?
    Recently I bought Atrimmec. Should I use bark banding or soil drenching?
    A

    You can do either or as directed on the product label.  During a soil drench, the Atrimmec Plant Growth Regulator (PGR) is poured directly over a plant’s roots near the stem or trunk and is this method allows the applicator to prevent the chemical from contacting other plants. If there is not a risk of the application overspraying or contacting other desirable trees, bark banding would be a suitable treatment.

    Q
    Can you spray the sides of the shrubs, such as privets, with Atrimmec Plant Growth Regulator (PGR)?
    Will it hurt to spray the sides of the shrubs, or are you only supposed to spray the tops of the shrubs?
    A

    Atrimmec Plant Growth Regulator (PGR) is labeled to be sprayed on shrubs and ornamental plants, such as privets. Per the product label: “This product is a systemic plant growth regulator applied as a foliar spray. It is absorbed by the leaves and translocated to the shoot tips.

    Atrimmec Plant Growth Regulator (PGR) doesn’t actually kill anything but it could effect the growth of other products if they are inadvertantly contacted during application.  Only time will tell if they are affected though.
