exactly.activates plants SAR.i've always been under the impression that frass isn't for fertilization, it's more like a flu shot for your plants. it produces the same responses that insect infestation does, and makes your plant build up its defenses before it ever gets any insect infestation, making it harder for it to occur in the first place.
my plants were well established so there were a lot of 'feeder' roots at the top of my soil.i would scratch in a 1/4-1/2 cup per 35gallon pot,a day after watering with dry weather in the forecast.you can water it in,yes it will work,but according to the owner of a frass co. i talked to,he recommended top dressing dry to not waste product.kind of like cutting a compost tea,you can,but it will be weaker.How does it contact the roots forgore you water it in if its topdressed?
Do u mean like for plants whose soil level has receded due to watering?
