Title: chlorosis in some cv's

Hello everyone I would just like to say that HVH special blend has fixed the chlorosis problem I was having on my ladybug plant.  :D

Hurray for that!

Here's a remedy for even the worst chlorosis. Make up a double strength solution of the HVH Houseplant Formula. Pour it into a saucer so that it is an inch deep in the saucer. Set the chlorotic plant in the solution and let it stay there. Several days later when the saucer has become dry, refill it with an inch of double strength Household Formula. Keep doing this for 2-3 weeks and the plant will green up amazingly! Of course leaves heavily damaged by mites won't be able to repair the damage and will probably fall off rather than turn green again but leaves lightly damaged or yellowing for other reasons can be greened up very effectively with this technique.
