The Monterey Florel Growth Regulator is not a systemic product and will not be pulled through the tree. In fact, it and most other plant growth regulators on the market must be applied as a foliar spray to work. The chemicals need to be directly applied to the leaf tissue to work and will not be pulled through the root to impact the plant. We would recommend reaching out to the manufacturer though to confirm if there will be any issue.Email: [email protected]
