Here's a wild one----A friend who lives away up a canyon in Western Colorado asked me  if I thought one could spray on a thick solution of powdered milk (he has a source of the material) in place of Surround, and if the receiving tissue might absorb some of the calcium in the milk mix???  Any thoughts------they have a variety of fruit trees and no neighbors for 20 miles. Their land is in a microclimate and things really grow, I would guess their elevation about 7,000 ft. As with many of us, some fruits like apricots bloom too soon in the  spring.

They are pure organic in their practice, so commercial chemicals won't pass the bar!
