Medicap MD 3/8" systemic nutrient implants are useful in all types of trees. They contain a mixture of highly water soluble nutrients, including nitrogen, phosphoric acid, soluble potash, iron, manganese and zinc. They are designed to stimulate tree growth and promote dark green foliage. This treatment may be helpful if trees are adversely affected by confined root areas, mechanical root injury, construction damage, poor soil conditions, disease or insect stress, air pollution, flood or frost damage, transplant shock, fire damage, surgery or pruning shock. Medicaps are easily installed by tapping the implants with a hammer and bolt or dowel rod into pre-drilled 3/8" diameter holes in the lower tree trunk at 4 to 6 inch spacing. The cartridge head securely plugs the small wound made to the tree trunk and the active layer of cambium will soon grow over and close the implant site. Under normal moisture conditions, the chemical will move throughout the entire tree within 14 to 21 days for quick Greenup. 10 Medicaps will treat a 14 inch diameter tree.
