Potting machine
The EZ Potter Pro from Mitchell Ellis Products is a versatile potting machine. It serves as a pot-filler for high volume, filling pots between 1 and 7 gallons. It’s also a flat- and tray-filler, and can drill holes up to 8 inches in size. Removing the bolt on the drill allows it to be used as a dibbler machine. It has an adjustable stroke, and drill depth can be adjusted while in motion. Its dual soil returns cut down on soil spillage, and because it is linked together it eliminates the need for mechanical push arms, cams and pot holders. The EZ Potter Pro has a length of 9 feet, a width of 8.5 feet, and a height of 6.5 feet. Using a 4- or 9-cubit-yard incline hopper is recommended for maximum performance. SERVICE #43
Systemic fungicide
Jetphiter contains the active ingredient potassium phosphate to control pythium and phythophthora. The systemic fungicide from Phoenix Environmental Care has a low use rate and starts delivering disease control within one hour of application. The potassium phosphate provides uniform uptake and disease protection by moving up and down in the plant. Jetphiter can be mixed with additional UPI-Phoenix brands, and should be rotated with Vireo metalaxyl fungicide at least once per season to reduce the possibility of disease resistance. Jetphiter is approved for use on turfgrass, landscapes, and in nurseries and greenhouses. SERVICE #44
