ABOUT BLUEGOLD® ALFALFA BLEND

BlueGold® Alfalfa Blend is our ‘custom blend’ for Vegetative crops. It was formulated by request from a forage farmer who had $31 per acre to put into a foliar program and wanted something to spray in-between cuttings. It averages 42 oz per acre at a cost of $29 per acre [pricing accurate as of June 2021]. Alfalfa Blend has been used with all forage crops [Alfalfa, Orchard Grass, Sorghum, Grasses, Tobacco, etc.], and other purely Vegetative crops like Tobacco as well as been used as a lawn spray by home-owners and landscape companies. You can use Alfalfa Blend or we can formulate a similar style custom blend based on your crop’s exact needs based on an Apical test.

WHAT SETS BLUEGOLD® ALFALFA BLEND APART FROM OTHER SAPONIN PRODUCTS?

Our BlueGold® Alfalfa Blend undergoes our trade secret Eden Synergy process and is formulated from select plants strong in saponin levels. BlueGold® Alfalfa Blend saponins are derived from: Aloe, Angelica, Bhringaraj Leaf, Black Cumin Seed, Brahma / Gotu Kola Leaf, Butcher’s Broom, Calendula, Chamomile, Cardamom, Comfrey, Dandelion Root, Eucalyptus, Fennel, Ginger, Ginseng Root, Hibiscus, Maca Root, Moringa Leaf, and Yucca Root. There are many benefits to plant-derived saponins over caustic detergents, unfortunately, the market pretty much only offers saponins of the Yucca plant (or another singular plant). At Eden, we do not settle for the norm. We discovered there is a structural variety of saponins derived from various plants. The number of saccharide chains attached to the sapogenin cores can vary, as can the length of the chains. The cores can also be any one of a wide variety of polycyclic organic structures originating from carbon terpenes. What does this mean to you? Certain types have been established in plant ecology to serve as antifeedants and to protect plants against microbes and fungi, while some have enhanced nutrient absorption and digestion aid in animals. Suffice to say, saponins have a range of industrial uses depending on the structure variety. Instead of just utilizing a single plant source and singular structure, we have researched and used 19 plant sources for saponins to give you a comprehensive and wide variety of structures for optimum saponin benefits.

CAUTION

BlueGold® Alfalfa Blend is an OMRI-listed Input (please contact your certifier before use). A micronutrient deficiency must be documented for use of BlueGold® Alfalfa Blend in Organic Operations. We only work with Apical Crop Science for all testing needs and require their tests to be enrolled into our Guaranteed Grow Program.

Do not use with synthetically enhanced or high Na/Cl grow media with BlueGold®. By itself, BlueGold® will not harm ANY crop, plant, biology, system, human, animal, environment, pollinator or beneficial (including birds, butterflies, earthworms, etc.). Do NOT combine with pesticides/chemicals/plant cleaners/etc. Very recent or current use of chemicals like fertilizers, herbicides, fungicides, algaecides, bactericides, miticides, pesticides, biocides, fumigants, plant growth regulators, pH Up/Down chemicals, dyes, etc., – all can cause an unfavorable interaction due to the Wetting Agent properties of BlueGold® Solutions, which can magnify the strength of said chemical. Strengthened doses of those chemicals can result in direct stress, burning, or death of plants. BlueGold® Solutions by themselves, without chemical interactions, will never cause these issues in any plant or soil (when used as directed). Users must respect BlueGold® labels and reduce NPK/synthetic inputs by +/- 90%. If by user choice, against our directions/recommendations, to use chemical inputs by combining with BlueGold®, they must be reduced by 90% or more and then dialed up as you see fit. If you encounter problems in the plants from the chemicals by your choice, then STOP. If you quickly move the pH to 6.4 with the help of pH adjusters, without adjusting inputs, you’re drastically making inputs more available, which results in stressed, burned, or dead plants from too big of a hit from the nutrients that are now available at a much higher % than previously. Especially when all the excess stored up chemicals inputs, flood into the plants at even higher EC/PPM values. Likewise, if you do not adjust inputs while using BlueGold®, as soil/sap pH is driven to 6.4, the same can happen over an extended period depending on soil and watering conditions. We do not advocate mixing BlueGold® with any chemicals. This all only applies to chemical-based products and does not apply to most organic-based products. We strongly recommend avoiding ocean-based products high in Na Sodium, Chlorides, and other salts with our Solutions as well as Sulfur based products, salt and heavy metal loaded humates, manures, and composts, etc. We are happy to look at a product’s Certificate of Analysis [COA] to verify its use with BlueGold®. Please send COA/analysis to nick@edenbluegold.com.

As the manufacturer, we offer a 100% Guarantee when used as directed, within the Eden Guaranteed Grow Program. A limited guarantee restricted to exclusive use with BlueGold® products and systems subject to the Apical soil, sap, water testing conditions, and Postal damages. No warranty or fitment of purpose promised.
