Questions have come up on the listserve lately about where to get information about how to use a product and where to find the product - about kaolin and gibberelic acid. Much of the research on this sort of thing is done by Cooperative Extension and the land grant colleges ("Ag" or "Tech" state colleges or universities). Both the researchers and the Extension folks have, in my experience, been very happy to share their knowledge with anyone who calls. For Extension staff, that's their job, and for researchers, it's their vocation. They can tell you exactly what research has been done, and what the results were. Occasionally, you may contact an unhelpful bureaucrat, but if so, just try someone else. Extension staff work with orchardists, among others, and would also know where to purchase products in bulk.
For kaolin, and for gibberelic acid without any fungicide, it would probably also be worth contacting the Rodale people in Emmaus, PA.
