Product Description
Pentra-Bark Penetrating Surfactant will transport water soluble insecticide, fungicide, plant growth regulators and fertilizer into the vascular system of the tree for translocation into foliage or roots, which eliminates the need to spray foliage, soil drench, bark inject, or pressure inject into soil.
Pentra-Bark works because: All woody plants have microscopic openings in the exterior protective bark periderm layer called lenticels, these lenticels are functionally used for plant transpiration and pressure regulation. Lenticels connect directly to the plant’s annual spiral openings or vascular metabolic transport system contained in the plant’s cambial phelloderm. When Pentra-Bark is applied to the woody bark periderm in combination with systemic pesticides, it opens the lenticels and enables movement through the lenticels into the plant’s vascular transport system.

For use with Reliant and Gardenphos
We use this with Reliant which is also a Quest product. They are designed to be used together. You want to use the Pentra-Bark to get more of the Reliant through the bark and into the tree faster. It will help speed up the treatment and save you money as you will need less fungicide to fix your problem. Vivagrow is very helpful with questions about how one is to use these products. Quest is also a good company.

Less expensive than Amazon Prime and I got it faster anyway

Use with reliant or similar fungicide
Pentra-Bark mixed well with the water/fungicide solution I used for a basal bark application to several pine and oak trees. Much less product was needed this way.
