From the KNF library
The library treats this as a soil foundation. You spray the solution, then soak the ground with water. It does not treat them as alternatives. (KNF Demystified, p. 20)
Repeat it. Drake's plan gives the first dose, then the same spray and soak three more times over the next three weeks. (KNF Demystified, p. 20) Do it just before dusk. (KNF Demystified, p. 20)
Poor soil needs four weeks to establish. Good soil needs two. (Cho's Solutions, p. 14) Apply it before you sow a crop. (Cho's Solutions, p. 14)
For orchard trees, the chart says to make a 2ft wide ring around the drip line. (Cho's Solutions, p. 14) Cover it lightly with mulch once it is spread. (Cho's Solutions, p. 14)
The library says nothing about bloom timing. It also does not say which solution suits which stage on apples and pears.
