To good to be true?

Portland, OR(Zone 8b)

Has anyone heard of this John Perez guy? Supposedly he has perfected some natural fertilizer that is supposed to make clematis grow really big and fast. He is hawking his product on the web. It sounds too good to be true (which means it probubly is). Anyone had any experience with this?

Sounds good, doesn't it? I have to admit that I usually don't trust anything that forces me to make such a quick decision. Are you going to try it?

It was printed in a post on a Clematis thread in the last few years. I'll try and find it.

I have read some forums on the internet regarding this.

You are buying 4 pages of homemade recipes.


the recipe (which has been out for years) is:
1 can beer
1 cup epsom salt
1/2 cup ammonia
2 cups water

Mix together and add 1/2 oz to 1 gallon of water, feed every 2 weeks.

dathen,
I doubt I'll try it unless I can get some feedback from someone who has already tried it. I don't really trust a lot of what is on the internet. And this ad sounds like one of those phoney ads - you know the kind, "buy this cream and your boobs will grow, fat will disapear, and world peace will suddenly break out." lol - I'm a curmudgion.

Thanks TP. It had the "scam" smell all over it.

I just did a search using "ammonia", thanks to TP, and found this thread on it:

And I suspect that the website has some kind of cookie because I bet it said the name of where you live at the top. When I went there, it said "A tiny treatment of tremendous importance in the San Jose, CA area. " That bugs me. Probably a fake picture of the guy too. Someone that looks nice and respectable.
